Abstract

We introduce general q-deformed multiple polylogarithms which even in the dilogarithm case differ slightly from the deformation usually discussed in the literature. The merit of the deformation as suggested, here, is that q-deformed multiple polylogarithms define an algebra, then (as in the undeformed case). For the special case of q-deformed multiple zeta-values, we show that there exists even a noncommutative and noncocommutative Hopf algebra structure which is a deformation of the commutative Hopf algebra structure which one has in the classical case. Finally, we discuss the possible correspondence between q-deformed multiple polylogarithms and a noncommutative and noncocommutative self-dual Hopf algebra recently introduced by the author as a quantum analog of the Grothendieck-Teichmueller group.

Brunnian braids and the inclusion from double shuffle Lie algebra to Kashiwara-Vergne Lie algebra

Schneps \cite{Schneps2012,Schneps2025} and Enriquez-Furusho \cite{EF4} proved that the double shuffle Lie algebra $\mathfrak{dmr}_0$ embeds into the Kashiwara--Vergne Lie algebra $\mathfrak{krv}_2$. We give a Brunnian braid interpretation of a related embedding into the symmetric Kashiwara--Vergne Lie algebra $\mathfrak{krv}_2^{\mathrm{sym}}$. More precisely, the map \[ φ\longmapsto \bigl(φ(-x_0-x_1,x_0),φ(-x_0-x_1,x_1)\bigr) \] defines an injective Lie algebra homomorphism from the subalgebra of $\mathfrak{dmr}_0$ satisfying the condition \[ [x_0,φ(-x_0-x_1,x_0)] +[x_1,φ(-x_0-x_1,x_1)]=0 \] into $\mathfrak{krv}_2^{\mathrm{sym}}$. The proof reformulate the double shuffle and symmetric Kashiwara--Vergne relations through abelianizations of Brunnian Lie algebras associated with the disk and punctured disks. We generalize this inclusion in two directions. First, replacing these abelianizations by higher lower central series quotients yields generalizations of relations and implications among them. Second, we establish explicit identities relating the linear pentagon defect to the stuffle coproduct, the divergence map, and the necklace cobracket.

A $q$-Weyl Freeness Principle for Nichols Algebras and Pointed Hopf Algebras of Square-Free Dimension

Let $H$ be a pointed Hopf algebra of square-free dimension over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. We prove that either $H$ is a group algebra or $\dim H/|\G(H)|=p$, and that in the latter case $H$ belongs to exactly one of two explicit families of rank-one pointed Hopf algebras. We develop a truncated $q$-Weyl freeness principle for finite-dimensional Nichols algebras of quandle type. If $V=\bigoplus_{x\in X}\K e_x$, $X'\subsetneq X$ is a nonempty subquandle, $V'=\bigoplus_{x\in X'}\K e_x$, and $s\in X\setminus X'$, then $\mathcal B(V)\simeq\K[e_s]/(e_s^{m_s})\otimes C_{s,X'}\otimes\mathcal B(V')$ for some graded vector space $C_{s,X'}$, where $m_s$ is the nilpotency order of $e_s$; in particular, $(m_s)_z\,\mathcal H_{\mathcal B(V')}(z)\mid\mathcal H_{\mathcal B(V)}(z)$. In the non-group case, this yields a $p^2$-divisibility obstruction that rules out noncentral support for the infinitesimal braiding. Together with a graded-dual argument, the resulting rank-one reduction forces the diagram of $H$ to have dimension $p$.
