Abstract

For a given quasi-triangular Hopf algebra H, we study relations between the braided group H̃* and Drinfeld's twist. We show that the braided bialgebra structure of H̃* is naturally described by means of twisted tensor powers of H and their module algebras. We introduce a universal solution to the reflection equation (RE) and deduce a fusion prescription for RE-matrices.
