Abstract

:
Quantum groups occupy a significant position in both mathematics and physics, contributing to progress in these fields. It is interesting to obtain new quantum groups by the quantization of Lie bialgebras. In this paper, the quantization of the rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra by Drinfel’d twists is presented, Lie bialgebra structures of which have been investigated by the authors recently.

1. Introduction

Quantum groups were first independently introduced by Drinfel’d [1,2] and Jimbo [3] around 1985 with the aim of constructing solutions to the quantum Yang–Baxter equations. They have been identified by Drinfel’d and Jimbo with a certain class of Hopf algebras. In Hopf algebra or quantum group theory, there exist two conventional approaches for generating new bialgebras from existing ones. One approach involves twisting the product by a 2-cocycle while maintaining the coproduct unchanged. Alternatively, one can twist the coproduct utilizing a Drinfel’d twist element while preserving the product. The process of quantizing Lie bialgebras serves as a crucial approach in generating new quantum groups (cf. [2,4], etc.). Since quantum groups have been discovered to possess numerous applications across diverse fields, encompassing statistical physics, symplectic geometry, knot theory, and even modular representations of reductive algebraic groups, quantizations of Lie bialgebras have received considerable attention in many studies (e.g., [5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22]). In [5], the infinite dimensional Witt algebra with characteristic 0 was explicitly quantized through the utilization of the twist initially discovered by Giaquinto and Zhang in [6]. Afterwards, quantizations of the generalized Witt algebra with characteristic 0 were provided in [7], whereas its Lie bialgebra structures were determined in [8]. The quantizations of generalized Kac–Moody algebras were obtained by Etingof and Kazhdan (see [9,10]). The quantizations of generalized Virasoro-like-type, Block-type, W-algebra W ( 2 , 2 ) and Schroding–Virasoro algebra were given in [11,12,13,14], while Lie bialgebra structures of these algebras were considered in [15,16,17,18], respectively. Recently, the authors proved in [23] that every Lie bialgebra structure on the rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra is triangular coboundary. However its quantum group structure is not known, which is what our paper shall focus on.
The rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra L is an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra with a -basis { t α , E α α 2 \ { 0 } } and the following Lie brackets:
t α , E β = det β α t α + β ,   E α , E β = det β α E α + β ,   t α , t β = 0 ,
where α = ( α 1 , α 2 ) , β = ( β 1 , β 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } , det β α = β 1 α 2 α 1 β 2 , and 0 = ( 0 , 0 ) . In [24], the derivations, automorphism group, and central extension of L were thoroughly investigated. Furthermore, the irreducibility of universal Whittaker modules related to L was conclusively determined in [25]. Lastly, authors in [26] delved into the Verma module structure associated with L, offering a comprehensive characterization.
We present two degree derivations D 1 and D 2 on L, i.e.,
D i , t α = α i t α ,   D i , E α = α i E α ,   D 1 , D 2 = 0 ,   for   i = 1 , 2 .
And subsequently, we arrive at our Lie algebra L ˜ = L D 1 D 2 . For convenience, we still refer to it as the rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra. In the present paper, we shall consider the quantization of the rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra L ˜ . We use the general quantization method by Drinfel’d twists (cf. [6,27]) to quantize explicitly the Lie algebra L ˜ . Actually, the entirety of this process relies solely on the construction of Drinfel’d twists. The main results of this article are Theorems 1 and 2, which provide the quantizations of the rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra L ˜ . Our findings have broadened the category of illustrative instances related to non-commutative and non-cocommutative Hopf algebras.
In this paper, we use the notations , + , and to represent the sets of nonnegative integers, positive integers, integers, and complex numbers, respectively.

2. Preliminaries

In this section, we first revisit several fundamental definitions and outcomes pertaining to quantization techniques, which will be used in subsequent discussions.
Let A denote a unitary algebra over . For an arbitrary element x of A , λ , n , define
x λ < n > : = ( x + λ ) ( x + λ + 1 ) ( x + λ + n 1 )
x λ [ n ] : = ( x + λ ) ( x + λ 1 ) ( x + λ n + 1 )
where x λ < 0 > = x λ [ 0 ] = 1 . For convenience, we use x < n > and x [ n ] to represent x 0 < n >  and x 0 [ n ] , respectively.
The following result and definition belongs to [2,5,6].
Lemma 1
([5,6]). Let x be an arbitrary element of the unitary algebra A over  . For given  λ , ρ  and  m , n , l + , the following equations hold.
x λ < m + n > = x λ < m > x λ + m < n > ,   x λ [ m + n ] = x λ [ m ] x λ m [ n ] ,   x λ [ m ] = x λ m + 1 < m > ,
m + n = l ( 1 ) n m ! n ! x λ [ m ] x ρ < n > = λ ρ l = ( λ ρ ) ( λ ρ 1 ) ( λ ρ l + 1 ) l !
m + n = l ( 1 ) n m ! n ! x λ [ m ] x ρ m [ n ] = λ ρ + l 1 l = ( λ ρ ) ( λ ρ + 1 ) ( λ ρ + l 1 ) l !
Definition 1
([2]). Let  ( W , σ , τ , Δ 0 , ε 0 , S 0 )  be a Hopf algebra over a commutative ring.  F  is called a Drinfel’d twist on  W , if it is an invertible element of  W W  such that
( F 1 ) ( Δ 0 Id ) ( F ) = ( 1 F ) ( Id Δ 0 ) ( F )
( ε 0 Id ) ( F ) = 1 1 = ( Id ε 0 ) ( F )
The well-known results mentioned below come from [2,4,27].
Lemma 2 
([2,4,27]). Let  ( W , σ , τ , Δ 0 , ε 0 , S 0 )  be a Hopf algebra over a commutative ring,  F  a Drinfel’d twist of  W . Then
(1)
f = σ ( Id S 0 ) ( F )  is an invertible element of  W W  with  f 1 =   σ ( S 0 Id ) ( F 1 ) .
(2)
the algebra  ( W , σ , τ , Δ , ε , S )  is a new Hopf algebra, that is referred to as the twisting of  W  by the Drinfel’d twist  F , if we remains the counit unchanged (i.e.,  ε = ε 0 ) and define  Δ : W W W ,  S : W W  by
Δ ( h ) = F Δ 0 ( h ) F 1 , S ( h ) = f   S 0 ( h ) f 1 , h W .

3. The Main Results

Let ( A ( L ˜ ) , σ , τ , Δ 0 , ε 0 , S 0 ) denote the standard Hopf algebra, which is characterized by the specified definitions of the coproduct, the antipode, and the counit, as outlined below.
Δ 0 ( t α ) = t α 1 + 1 t α ,   Δ 0 ( E α ) = E α 1 + 1 E α ,   Δ 0 ( D i ) = D i 1 + 1 D i ,
S 0 ( t α ) = t α ,   S 0 ( E α ) = E α ,   S 0 ( D i ) = D i ,   ε 0 ( t α ) = ε 0 ( E α ) = ε 0 ( D i ) = 0 ,
for α 2 \ { 0 } , i = 1 , 2 .
Let A ( L ˜ ) x denote an associative algebra over , where A ( L ˜ ) x consists of formal power series with coefficients belonging to A ( L ˜ ) . Then, the Hopf algebra structure of A ( L ˜ ) x is naturally induced from ( A ( L ˜ ) , σ , τ , Δ 0 , ε 0 , S 0 ) . For convenience, we also denote it by ( A ( L ˜ ) x , σ , τ , Δ 0 , ε 0 , S 0 ) .
The key findings of this paper are summarized in the following two theorems, which give the quantizations of A ( L ˜ ) by the Drinfel’d twist F  defined in (21).
Theorem 1.
Let  L ˜  be the rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra. For any  α = ( α 1 , α 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } ,  E α L ˜ , we choose  H = 1 μ ( η 1 D 1 + η 2 D 2 )  with  μ : = η 1 α 1 + η 2 α 2 0  and  η 1 , η 2  to satisfy  [ H , E α ] = E α . Then there exists a non-commutative and non-cocommutative Hopf algebra structure  ( A ( L ˜ ) x , σ , τ , Δ , ε , S )  on  A ( L ˜ ) x  over  x  with  A ( L ˜ ) x / x A ( L ˜ ) x A ( L ˜ ) , which preserves the product and counit of  A ( L ˜ ) x , while the deformed coproduct and antipode are defined as follows.
Δ ( E β ) = E β 1 E α x η μ + s = 0 ( 1 ) s b s H < s > 1 E α x s E β + s α x s , Δ ( t β ) = t β 1 E α x η μ + s = 0 ( 1 ) s b s H < s > 1 E α x s t β + s α x s , Δ ( D j ) = D j 1 + 1 D j + α j H < 1 > 1 E α x 1 E α x , S ( E β ) = 1 E α x η μ s = 0 b s E β + s α H 1 < s > x s , S ( t β ) = 1 E α x η μ s = 0 b s t β + s α H 1 < s > x s , S ( D j ) = α j H 1 E α x 1 ( E α x E α 2 x 2 ) D j ,
where  j = 1 , 2 , for any  β = ( β 1 , β 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } , we denote  η = η 1 β 1 + η 2 β 2 ,  b s = 1 s ! ( β 1 α 2 β 2 α 1 ) s ,  b 0 = 1 .
For the sake of simplicity, we adopt the same notations as those utilized in Theorem 1 for the subsequent theorem.
Theorem 2.
Let  L ˜  be the rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra. For any  α = ( α 1 , α 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } ,  t α L ˜ , we choose  H = 1 μ ( η 1 D 1 + η 2 D 2 )  with  μ : = η 1 α 1   + η 2 α 2 0  and  η 1 , η 2  to satisfy  [ H , t α ] = t α . Then there exists another non-commutative and non-cocommutative Hopf algebra structure  ( A ( L ˜ ) x , σ , τ , Δ , ε , S )  on  A ( L ˜ ) x  over  x  with  A ( L ˜ ) x / x A ( L ˜ ) x A ( L ˜ ) , which preserves the product and counit of  A ( L ˜ ) x , while the deformed coproduct and antipode are defined as follows.
Δ ( E β ) = E β 1 t α x η μ + 1 E β b 1 H < 1 > 1 t α x 1 t β + α x , Δ ( t β ) = t β 1 t α x η μ + 1 t β , Δ ( D j ) = D j 1 + 1 D j + α j H < 1 > 1 t α x 1 t α x , S ( E β ) = 1 t α x η μ ( E β + b 1 t β + α H 1 < 1 > x ) , S ( t β ) = 1 t α x η μ t β , S ( D j ) = α j H 1 t α x 1 ( t α x t α 2 x 2 ) D j ,
where  j = 1 , 2 ,  b 1 = β 1 α 2 β 2 α 1 .

4. Proof of the Main Results

The proof of Theorems 1 and 2 shall be divided into a series of lemmas. The formulas in the following lemma will be used later in the quantizations of the rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra.
Lemma 3.
For any  α = ( α 1 , α 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } , we choose  H = 1 μ ( η 1 D 1 + η 2 D 2 )  and  G = E α  or  G = t α  with  μ : = η 1 α 1 + η 2 α 2 0  and  η 1 , η 2  such that  [ H , G ] = G . For any  β = ( β 1 , β 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } , denote  η = η 1 β 1 + η 2 β 2 . Then the following equations hold in  A ( L ˜ )  for  λ ,  n , l + ,  γ = ( γ 1 , γ 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } .
E β H λ [ n ] = H λ η μ [ n ] E β ,   t β H λ [ n ] = H λ η μ [ n ] t β ,   E β H λ < n > = H λ η μ < n > E β ,   t β H λ < n > = H λ η μ < n > t β ,
G l H λ [ n ] = H λ l [ n ] G l ,   G l H λ < n > = H λ l < n > G l ,
D j l H λ [ n ] = H λ [ n ] D j l ,   D j l H λ < n > = H λ < n > D j l ,
E β E γ n = k = 0 n ( 1 ) k n k ( β 1 γ 2 β 2 γ 1 ) k E γ n k E β + k γ ,
E β t γ n = t γ n E β n ( β 1 γ 2 β 2 γ 1 ) t γ n 1 t β + γ ,
t β E γ n = k = 0 n ( 1 ) k n k ( β 1 γ 2 β 2 γ 1 ) k E γ n k t β + k γ
D j E γ n = n γ j E γ n + E γ n D j ,   D j t γ n = n γ j t γ n + t γ n D j ,   j = 1 , 2 .
Proof. 
For any α = ( α 1 , α 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } , we choose μ : = η 1 α 1 + η 2 α 2 0  with η 1 , η 2 . Denote H = 1 μ ( η 1 D 1 + η 2 D 2 ) and G = E α or G = t α . Then by (2), it is obvious that
[ H , G ] = G .
For any β = ( β 1 , β 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } , we denote η = η 1 β 1 + η 2 β 2 . Using (2), we have
[ H , E β ] = η μ E β ,   [ H , t β ] = η μ t β ,
then
E β H = H E β η μ E β ,   t β H = H t β η μ t β .
Applying (3) and (4), we obtain
E β H λ [ 1 ] = E β ( H + λ ) = ( H η μ + λ ) E β = H λ η μ [ 1 ] E β , t β H λ [ 1 ] = t β ( H + λ ) = ( H η μ + λ ) t β = H λ η μ [ 1 ] t β , E β H λ < 1 > = E β ( H + λ ) = ( H η μ + λ ) E β = H λ η μ < 1 > E β , t β H λ < 1 > = t β ( H + λ ) = ( H η μ + λ ) t β = H λ η μ < 1 > t β ,
which shows that the case n = 1 of (13) is true. Suppose that (13) is true for n. Using (5), we can derive
E β H λ [ n + 1 ] = E β H λ [ n ] H λ n [ 1 ] = H λ η μ [ n ] E β H λ n [ 1 ] = H λ η μ [ n ] H λ n η μ [ 1 ] E β = H λ η μ [ n + 1 ] E β , t β H λ [ n + 1 ] = t β H λ [ n ] H λ n [ 1 ] = H λ η μ [ n ] t β H λ n [ 1 ] = H λ η μ [ n ] H λ n η μ [ 1 ] t β = H λ η μ [ n + 1 ] t β , E β H λ < n + 1 > = E β H λ < n > H λ + n < 1 > = H λ η μ < n > E β H λ + n < 1 > = H λ η μ < n > H λ + n η μ < 1 > E β = H λ η μ < n + 1 > E β , t β H λ < n + 1 > = t β H λ < n > H λ + n < 1 > = H λ η μ < n > t β H λ + n < 1 > = H λ η μ < n > H λ + n η μ < 1 > t β = H λ η μ < n + 1 > t β .
Thus (13) follows.
From (7), one has
E α H λ [ n ] = H λ 1 [ n ] E α ,   t α H λ [ n ] = H λ 1 [ n ] t α , E α H λ < n > = H λ 1 < n > E α ,   t α H λ < n > = H λ 1 < n > t α .
So (14) holds for l = 1 . Suppose (14) holds for l . Then we obtain
E α l + 1 H λ [ n ] = E α E α l H λ [ n ] = E α H λ l [ n ] E α l = H λ ( l + 1 ) [ n ] E α l + 1 , t α l + 1 H λ [ n ] = t α t α l H λ [ n ] = E α H λ l [ n ] t α l = H λ ( l + 1 ) [ n ] t α l + 1 , E α l + 1 H λ < n > = E α E α l H λ < n > = E α H λ l < n > E α l = H λ ( l + 1 ) < n > E α l + 1 , t α l + 1 H λ < n > = t α t α l H λ < n > = t α H λ l < n > t α l = H λ ( l + 1 ) < n > t α l + 1 .
Hence, (14) holds for all l .
(15) follows from [ D j , H ] = 0 for j = 1 , 2 .
For (16), we first prove the following equation by induction on n.
E β E γ n = k = 0 n ( 1 ) k n k E γ n k ( a d E γ ) k ( E β )
Because  E β E γ = E γ E β [ E γ , E β ] , it is clear that (20) is true for n = 1 . Suppose that (20) is true for n , then
E β E γ n + 1 = k = 0 n ( 1 ) k n k E γ n k ( a d E γ ) k ( E β ) E γ = k = 0 n ( 1 ) k n k E γ n k ( a d E γ ) k + 1 ( E β ) + E γ ( a d E γ ) k ( E β ) = k = 0 n ( 1 ) k + 1 n k E γ n k ( a d E γ ) k + 1 ( E β ) + k = 0 n ( 1 ) k n k E γ n + 1 k ( a d E γ ) k ( E β ) = k = 1 n + 1 ( 1 ) k n k 1 E γ n + 1 k ( a d E γ ) k ( E β ) + k = 0 n ( 1 ) k n k E γ n + 1 k ( a d E γ ) k ( E β ) = k = 1 n ( 1 ) k n k 1 + n k E γ n + 1 k ( a d E γ ) k ( E β ) + ( 1 ) n + 1 ( a d E γ ) n + 1 ( E β )     + E γ n + 1 E β = k = 0 n + 1 ( 1 ) k n + 1 k E γ n + 1 k ( a d E γ ) k ( E β ) .
Thus, (20) holds for all n . Furthermore, the following equation holds.
( a d E γ ) k ( E β ) = ( β 1 γ 2 β 2 γ 1 ) k E β + k γ .
Hence, (16) follows. We can similarly obtain (18) by induction. For (17), we have
E β t γ = t γ E β [ t γ , E β ] = t γ E β ( β 1 γ 2 β 2 γ 1 ) t β + γ .
So (17) is true for n = 1 . Suppose that (17) is true for n , then
E β t γ n + 1 = t γ n E β t γ n ( β 1 γ 2 β 2 γ 1 ) t γ n t β + γ = t γ n + 1 E β ( n + 1 ) ( β 1 γ 2 β 2 γ 1 ) t γ n t β + γ .
Hence, (17) holds for all n = 1 . Noting that
D j X = γ j X + X D j   for   X = E γ   or   X = t γ ,   j = 1 , 2 ,
which imply the case n = 1 of (19). Suppose all equations of (19) hold for n. Then
D j X n + 1 = n γ j X n + 1 + X n D j X = ( n + 1 ) γ j X n + 1 + X n + 1 D j .
Thus, (19) follows. □
For the rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra L ˜ , in order to describe a quantization of A ( L ˜ ) by a Drinfel’d twist F over A ( L ˜ ) x , we must explicitly construct such a Drinfel’d twist.
For any α = ( α 1 , α 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } , we choose H = 1 μ ( η 1 D 1 + η 2 D 2 ) and G = E α or G = t α  with μ : = η 1 α 1 + η 2 α 2 0  and η 1 , η 2  such that [ H , G ] = G . For any λ , we set
F λ = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! H λ [ k ] G k x k ,   F λ = k = 0 1 k ! H λ < k > G k x k ,
U λ = σ ( S 0 I d ) ( F λ ) ,   V λ = σ ( I d S 0 ) ( F λ ) .
For convenience, write H < k > = H 0 < k > , H [ k ] = H 0 [ k ] , F = F 0 , F = F 0 , U = U 0 , V = V 0 . Since S 0 ( H λ < k > ) = ( 1 ) k H λ [ k ] and S 0 ( G k ) = ( 1 ) k G k , we obtain
U λ = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! H λ [ k ] G k x k ,   V λ = k = 0 1 k ! H λ [ k ] G k x k .
Lemma 4.
Whether  G = E α or G = t α , the following equations hold for any  λ , ρ .
F λ F ρ = 1 ( 1 G x ) λ ρ ,   V λ U ρ = ( 1 G x ) ( λ + ρ ) .
Therefore the elements  F λ , F λ , U λ , V λ  are invertible and  F λ 1 = F λ ,  U λ 1 = V λ . In particular,  F 1 = F ,  U 1 = V .
Proof. 
Using (6) and (21), we deduce
F λ F ρ = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! H λ [ k ] G k x k s = 0 1 s ! H ρ < s > G s x s = k , s = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! s ! H λ [ k ] H ρ < s > G k + s x k + s = t = 0 ( 1 ) t k + s = t ( 1 ) s k ! s ! H λ [ k ] H ρ < s > G t x t = t = 0 ( 1 ) t λ ρ t G t x t = 1 ( 1 G x ) λ ρ .
Using (7), (14) and (23), one has
V λ U ρ = k = 0 1 k ! H λ [ k ] G k x k s = 0 ( 1 ) s s ! H ρ [ s ] G s x s = k , s = 0 ( 1 ) s k ! s ! H λ [ k ] H ρ k [ s ] G k + s x k + s = t = 0 k + s = t ( 1 ) s k ! s ! H λ [ k ] H ρ k [ s ] G k + s x k + s = t = 0 λ + ρ + t 1 t G t x t = ( 1 G x ) ( λ + ρ ) .
Hence, Lemma 4 follows. □
The formula in Lemma 5 will be used to prove that F defined in (21) is a Drinfel’d twist in Lemma 6.
Lemma 5.
For any positive integer  n  and  λ , one can write
Δ 0 ( H [ n ] ) = k = 0 n n k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n k ] .
In particular, one has  Δ 0 ( H [ n ] ) = k = 0 n n k H [ k ] H [ n k ] .
Proof. 
We will use induction on n . Obviously, it is true for n = 1 , since Δ 0 ( H ) = H 1 + 1 H . Suppose it holds for n . Then we can deduce
Δ 0 ( H [ n + 1 ] ) = Δ 0 ( H [ n ] ) Δ 0 ( H n ) = k = 0 n n k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n k ] ( H λ n ) 1 + 1 ( H + λ n ) + n ( 1 1 ) = k = 1 n 1 n k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n k ] ( H λ n ) 1 + 1 ( H + λ n ) + X λ [ n ] ( H + λ n ) + n k = 0 n n k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n k ] + 1 H λ [ n + 1 ] + H λ [ n + 1 ] 1 + ( H λ n ) H λ [ n ] = 1 H λ [ n + 1 ] + H λ [ n + 1 ] 1 + n k = 1 n 1 n k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n k ] + ( H λ ) H λ [ n ] + X λ [ n ] ( H + λ ) + k = 1 n 1 n k H λ [ k + 1 ] H λ [ n k ] + k = 1 n 1 ( k n ) n k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n k ] + k = 1 n 1 n k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n k + 1 ] k = 1 n 1 k n k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n k ] = 1 X λ [ n + 1 ] + X λ [ n + 1 ] 1 + k = 1 n 1 n k H λ [ k + 1 ] H λ [ n k ] + ( H λ ) H λ [ n ] + k = 1 n 1 n k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n k + 1 ] + H λ [ n ] ( H + λ ) = 1 H λ [ n + 1 ] + H λ [ n + 1 ] 1 + k = 1 n n k 1 + n k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n k + 1 ] = k = 0 n + 1 n + 1 k H λ [ k ] H λ [ n + 1 k ] .
Thus, the lemma follows. □
The following lemma shows that F defined in (21) is a Drinfel’d twist.
Lemma 6.
For  H = 1 μ ( η 1 D 1 + η 2 D 2 )  with  α = ( α 1 , α 2 ) 2 \ { 0 }  and  μ = η 1 α 1 + η 2 α 2 0 ( η i ) , F = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! H [ k ] G k x k  is a Drinfel’d twist on  A ( L ˜ ) x , i.e.,  F  satisfies the following equalities, no matter whether  G = E α  or  G = t α .
( F 1 ) ( Δ 0 Id ) ( F ) = ( 1 F ) ( Id Δ 0 ) ( F ) , ( ε 0 Id ) ( F ) = 1 1 = ( Id ε 0 ) ( F ) .
Proof. 
Using Lemma 5, (5) and (14), one obtains
( F 1 ) ( Δ 0 Id ) ( F ) = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! H [ k ] G k x k 1 ( Δ 0 Id ) s = 0 ( 1 ) s s ! H [ s ] G s x s = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! H [ k ] G k x k 1 s = 0 ( 1 ) s s ! t = 0 s s t H k [ t ] H k [ s t ] G s x s = k , s = 0 ( 1 ) k + s k ! s ! x k + s t = 0 s s t H [ k ] H k [ t ] G k H k [ s t ] G s = k , s = 0 ( 1 ) k + s k ! s ! x k + s t = 0 s s t H [ k + t ] H [ s t ] G k G s ,
and,

It suffices to establish the validity of the following equality for any fixed p .
k + s = p 1 k ! s ! x k + s t = 0 s s t H [ k + t ] H [ s t ] G k G s = m + n = p 1 m ! n ! x m + n l = 0 n n l H [ n ] H [ m ] G l G m + n l
Fixing m , n , l such that m + n = p , 0 l n . Set k = l , k + t = n . Then s = p l , s t = m . It is obvious that the coefficients of H [ n ] H [ m ] G l G p l  in both sides are equal.
The second equality follows from that
( ε 0 Id ) ( F ) = ( ε 0 Id ) 1 1 + k = 1 ( 1 ) k k ! H [ k ] G k x k = ( ε 0 Id ) ( 1 1 ) = 1 1 ,
and
( Id ε 0 ) ( F ) = ( Id ε 0 ) 1 1 + k = 1 ( 1 ) k k ! H [ k ] G k x k = ( Id ε 0 ) ( 1 1 ) = 1 1 .
Hence, the lemma is proved. □
By Lemma 6, we can carry out the process of twisting the standard Hopf structure ( A ( L ˜ ) x , σ , τ , Δ 0 , ε 0 , S 0 ) by the Drinfel’d twist F .

If  G = E α  with  α = ( α 1 , α 2 ) 2 \ { 0 }  and  μ = η 1 α 1 + η 2 α 2 0 ( η i ) , then for any  λ ,  β = ( β 1 , β 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } , denote  η = η 1 β 1 + η 2 β 2 , we have the following identities:

Therefore, Lemma 7 is proved. □
The proof of the first principal result in this paper is as follows.
Proof of Theorem 1. 
For any E β , t β with β = ( β 1 , β 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } and D j L ˜ , j = 1 , 2 , by Lemmas 2 and 4 and (24)–(26), (28) and (29), we obtain
Δ ( E β ) = F Δ 0 ( E β ) F 1 = F ( E β 1 ) F 1 + F ( 1 E β ) F 1   = F ( E β 1 ) F + F ( 1 E β ) F   = F F η μ ( E β 1 ) + F s = 0 ( 1 ) s b s F s H < s > E β + s α x s   = 1 ( 1 E α x ) η μ ( E β 1 ) + s = 0 ( 1 ) s b s 1 ( 1 E α x ) s H < s > E β + s α x s   = E β ( 1 E α x ) η μ + s = 0 ( 1 ) s b s H < s > ( 1 E α x ) s E β + s α x s , Δ ( t β ) = F Δ 0 ( t β ) F 1 = F ( t β 1 ) F 1 + F ( 1 t β ) F 1   = F ( t β 1 ) F + F ( 1 t β ) F   = F F η μ ( t β 1 ) + F s = 0 ( 1 ) s b s F s H < s > t β + s α x s   = 1 ( 1 E α x ) η μ ( t β 1 ) + s = 0 ( 1 ) s b s 1 ( 1 E α x ) s H < s > t β + s α x s   = t β ( 1 E α x ) η μ + s = 0 ( 1 ) s b s H < s > ( 1 E α x ) s t β + s α x s ,

Therefore we complete the proof of Theorem 1. □
Lemma 8.
If  G = t α  with  α = ( α 1 , α 2 ) 2 \ { 0 }  and  μ = η 1 α 1 + η 2 α 2 0 ( η i ) , then for any  λ ,  β = ( β 1 , β 2 ) 2 \ { 0 } , denote  η = η 1 β 1 + η 2 β 2 , one has
( E β 1 ) F λ = F λ η μ ( E β 1 ) ,   ( t β 1 ) F λ = F λ η μ ( t β 1 ) ,
( 1 E β ) F λ = F λ ( 1 E β ) b 1 F λ + 1 H λ < 1 > t β + α x ,   ( 1 t β ) F λ = F λ ( 1 t β ) ,

E α U λ = U λ + 1 E α ,   t α U λ = U λ + 1 t α ,   V λ H λ [ 1 ] = H λ [ 1 ] V λ H λ [ 1 ] V λ 1 t α x ,
where  j = 1 , 2 , and  b 1 = β 1 α 2 β 2 α 1 .
Proof. 
(31), (34)–(36) can be derived in a manner analogous to those presented in Lemma 7. The first equation of (32) is a consequence of the following equation.
( 1 E β ) F λ = k = 0 1 k ! H λ < k > E β t α k x k = k = 0 1 k ! H λ < k > t α k E β k β 1 α 2 β 2 α 1 t α k 1 t β + α x k = k = 0 1 k ! H λ < k > t α k x k ( 1 E β ) k = 1 1 ( k 1 ) !

H λ + 1 < k > t α k x k H λ < 1 > b 1 t β + α x = F λ ( 1 E β ) b 1 F λ + 1 H λ < 1 > t β + α x .
where b 1 = β 1 α 2 β 2 α 1 . For the latter part of (32), one has
( 1 t β ) F λ = k = 0 1 k ! H λ < k > t β t α k x k = k = 0 1 k ! H λ < k > t α k x k ( 1 t β ) = F λ ( 1 t β ) .
For (33), using (5), (13), (14) and (17), one obtains
E β U λ = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! E β H λ [ k ] t α k x k = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! H λ η μ [ k ] E β t α k x k = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k !

t β U λ = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! t β H λ [ k ] t α k x k = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! H λ η μ [ k ] t β t α k x k = k = 0 ( 1 ) k k ! H λ η μ [ k ] t α k x k t β = U λ + η μ t β
Thus, Lemma 8 is proved. □
The proof of the second principal result in this paper is presented as follows.
Proof of Theorem 2. 
For any E β , t β with β 2 \ { 0 } and D j L ˜ , j = 1 , 2 , by Lemmas 2, 4 and 8, we deduce
Δ ( E β ) = F Δ 0 ( E β ) F 1 = F ( E β 1 ) F + F ( 1 E β ) F = F F η μ ( E β 1 ) + F F ( 1 E β ) b 1 F 1 H < 1 > t β + α x = 1 ( 1 t α x ) η μ ( E β 1 ) + ( 1 1 ) ( 1 E β )     b 1 1 ( 1 t α x ) 1 H < 1 > t β + α x = E β ( 1 t α x ) η μ + 1 E β b 1 H < 1 > ( 1 t α x ) 1 t β + α x , Δ ( t β ) = F Δ 0 ( t β ) F 1 = F ( t β 1 ) F + F ( 1 t β ) F = F F η μ ( t β 1 ) + F F ( 1 t β ) = t β ( 1 t α x ) η μ + 1 t β , Δ ( D j ) = F Δ 0 ( D j ) F 1 = F ( D j 1 ) F + F ( 1 D j ) F = F F ( D j 1 ) + F F 1 H < 1 > α j t α x + F ( 1 D j ) = D j 1 + 1 D j + α j H < 1 > ( 1 t α x ) 1 t α x , S ( E β ) = f S 0 ( E β ) f 1 = V E β U = V U η μ E β + b 1 U η μ t β + α H 1 < 1 > x = 1 t α x η μ E β + b 1 t β + α H 1 < 1 > x , S ( t β ) = f S 0 ( t β ) f 1 = V t β U = V U η μ t β = 1 t α x η μ t β ,
S ( D j ) = f S 0 ( D j ) f 1 = V D j U = V ( α j H [ 1 ] U 1 t α x + U D j ) = α j ( H V H V 1 t α x ) U 1 t α x D j = α j H ( 1 t α x ) 1 t α x α j H ( 1 t α x ) 1 E α 2 x 2 D j = α j H ( 1 t α x ) 1 ( t α x t α 2 x 2 ) D j ,
where j = 1 , 2 , b 1 = β 1 α 2 β 2 α 1 . Therefore, Theorem 2 is proved. □

5. Conclusions

Heisenberg–Virasoro and in general Virasoro algebras are useful in Conformal Field Theory (CFT). In [28], the authors shows this clearly by applying these algebras to CFT. The papers by O. B. Fournier and P. Mathieu on and around the subject are useful to see the consequences, notably the Virasoro characters (cf. [29,30,31] and other similar papers). Heisenberg–Virasoro algebras and in general Virasoro algebras also have many applications in Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Field Theory (QFT) (cf. [32,33,34,35], etc.). Furthermore, Heisenberg–Virasoro algebras and in general Virasoro algebras hold a profound connection with Vertex operator algebras (VOA) (cf. [36,37], etc.). The exploration of vertex operator algebras in relation to Virasoro algebras serves as the algebraic cornerstone for investigating minimal models in CFT.
Quantum groups play important roles in many fields such as mathematics and physics. It is an important and interesting approach to construct new quantum groups through the quantization of Lie bialgebras. In this paper, the explicit formulas of the quantization of the rank two Heisenberg–Virasoro algebra L ˜ by Drinfel’d twists (see Theorems 1 and 2) are presented, Lie bialgebra structures of which were considered by the authors in a recent paper [23]. It is found that the quantization of L ˜ is not unique since there are two types of Drinfel’d twists (see Lemma 6). Our results broaden the scope of examples encompassed by non-commutative and non-cocommutative Hopf algebras.
