Zakrzewski, Stanisław A characterization of coboundary Poisson Lie groups and Hopf algebras. (English) Zbl 0893.22011 Budzyński, Robert (ed.) et al., Quantum groups and quantum spaces.

It is shown that a Poisson Lie group \((G,\pi)\) is a coboundary, i.e. \(\pi(g)= rg-gr\) for some \(r\in {\mathbf g}\wedge {\mathbf g}\) where \({\mathbf g} =\text{Lie} (G)\), if and only if the natural left-right action of \(G\times G\) on \(G\) is a Poisson action with respect to some Poisson structure on \(G\). A similar condition is analyzed in the context of Hopf algebras with a possible application in the theory of quantum groups.For the entire collection see [Zbl 0865.00041].
