Abstract :
We define a sequence of quotient algebras of a quantized GIM Lie algebraʹs tensor algebras, modulo ideals generated by some imaginary root vectors, so that there are algebra morphisms similar to the Drinfelʹd–Jimbo coproduct of quantum groups, and hence the quantized GIM Lie algebra has properties which are similar to those of Hopf algebras. Weight modules and quantum loop modules of the corresponding quantum affine Kac–Moody algebra are used to construct tensor modules of the quantized GIM Lie algebra via the coproduct.
