Braided Hopf algebras and gauge transformations II: $*$-structures and examples (2211.02986v1)

Abstract: We consider noncommutative principal bundles which are equivariant under a triangular Hopf algebra. We present explicit examples of infinite dimensional braided Lie and Hopf algebras of infinitesimal gauge transformations of bundles on noncommutative spheres. The braiding of these algebras is implemented by the triangular structure of the symmetry Hopf algebra. We present a systematic analysis of compatible $*$-structures, encompassing the quasitriangular case.
