4.2 The Generalized Yangian Identity
Let α, β, γ ∈ F. Let R be a unital associative algebra, and let V be an N -
dimensional vector space. For β = 0, we also assume, as in Sect. 3.1, that V is
endowed with a non-degenerate bilinear form · | ·· : V × V → F which we assume
to be symmetric or skewsymmetric, and we let = +1 and −1, respectively. Again,
when denoting an element of R ⊗ End(V ) or of R ⊗ End(V ) ⊗ End(V ), we omit
the tensor product sign on the first factor, i.e. we treat elements of R as scalars.
The generalized (α, β, γ )-Yangian identity for A(z) ∈ R((z −1 )) ⊗ End(V ) is the
following identity, holding in R[[z −1 , w −1 ]][z, w] ⊗ End(V ) ⊗ End(V ):
(z − w + αΩ V )(A(z) ⊗ 1 V )(z + w + γ − βΩ
†
V )(1 V ⊗ A(w))
= (1 V ⊗ A(w))(z + w + γ − βΩ
†
V )(A(z) ⊗ 1 V )(z − w + αΩ V ) .
(21)
Recall that Ω V and Ω
†
V are defined by Eqs. (13) and (15), respectively.
Remark 4 In the special case α = 1, β = γ = 0, Eq. (21) coincides with the
so-called RTT presentation of the Yangian of gl(V ), cf. [19, 45]. Moreover, in the
special case α = β =

2 , γ = 0, Eq. (21) coincides with the so-called RSRS
presentation of the extended twisted Yangian of g = so(V ) or sp(V ), depending
on whether = +1 or −1, cf. [45]. Hence, if A(z) ∈ R((z −1 )) ⊗ End V
satisfies the generalized

-Yangian identity we automatically have an algebra
homomorphism from the extended twisted Yangian X(g) to the algebra R. If,

twisted Yangian in [45])

then we have an algebra homomorphism from the twisted Yangian Y (g) to the
