Abstract

Quantum groups have shown to be an exceptionally promising and rich structure whereby one can expect a growing wealth of new results in statistical mechanics and quantum field theory1. Stemmed out of the algebraic structure dictated by integra-bility conditions (quantum Yang-Baxter (q-Y.-B.) equations) for a class of integrable systems, quantum groups can be intuitively thought of as the deformation of the universal enveloping algebra of some given Lie algebra L of dynamical variables induced by replacing the Jacobi identities with the q-Y.-B. equations, yet preserving the associativity properties of L. As usual, quantum groups is synonimous of Hopf algebra.
