Abstract

We study a class of quantized enveloping algebras, called twisted Yangians, associated with the symmetric pairs of types B, C, D in Cartan’s classification. These algebras can be regarded as coideal subalgebras of the Yangian for orthogonal or symplectic Lie algebras. They can also be presented as quotients of a reflection algebra by additional symmetry relations. We prove an analogue of the Poincaré–Birkoff–Witt Theorem, determine their centres and study also extended reflection algebras.
