Abstract

We construct quasi-Hopf algebras quantizing double extensions of the Manin pairs of Drinfeld, associated to a curve with a meromorphic differential, and the Lie algebrasl 2. This construction makes use of an analysis of the vertex relations for the quantum groups obtained in our earlier work, PBW-type results and computation ofR-matrices for them; its key step is a factorization of the twist operator relating “conjugated” versions of these quantum groups.
