Stability, bifurcation, and chaos control in a discrete predator-prey model with strong Allee effect

1.   Introduction

In the theory of quantum groups, the quantum universal enveloping algebra of three-dimensional simple Lie algebras $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ plays an important role ^[1]. In 1983, the one-parameter quantized enveloping algebra ${U_q}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ was introduced by Kulish and Reshetikhin in the context of the Yang-Baxter equation for the integrable statistical models in the quantum inverse scattering method, and later its Hopf algebraic structure was discovered by Sklyanin ^[1,2,3]. A few years later, Drinfeld and Jimbo ^[4,5,6,7] independently discovered quantized enveloping algebras with higher ranks of complex simple-Lie algebras, which are quasi-triangular Hopf algebras. When $q$ is not a root of unity, the representation theory of ${U_q}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ is very similar to that of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_2$, and has been basically solved. However, when $q$ is a root of unity, the quantum group ${U_q}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ will become very complex. Many authors study representations of ${U_q}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ when $q$ is a root of unity, and get some interesting results, see ^[8,9,10] for example.

In 2020, Aziziheris et al. ^[11] defined the classical Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2(\mathbb{C})$ based on a new associative multiplication on the $2 \times 2$ matrix, and then obtained a new type quantum group $U_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$. In ^[12], Xu and Chen investigated the above new type quantum group $U_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ and classified its all Hopf PBW-deformations in which the classical Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ was almost the unique nontrivial one. In ^[13], the authors defined a new type restricted quantum group $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ and determined its Hopf PBW-deformations $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2, \kappa)$ in which $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2, 0) = \overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ and the classical restricted Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ was included. They showed that $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ was a basic Hopf algebra, then uniformly realize $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ and $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ via some quotients of (deformed) preprojective algebras corresponding to the Gabriel quiver of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$.

One of the basic problems in the theory of quantum groups is to decompose a tensor product of modules into a direct sum of indecomposable ones and hence to elucidate the structure of the corresponding fusion rule algebra. In ^[8], Suter decomposed the restricted quantum universal enveloping algebra ${U_q}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ in a canonical way into a direct sum of indecomposable left (or right) ideals. The indecomposable finite-dimensional ${U_q}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$-modules were classified and the tensor products of two simple modules, simple and projective modules were decomposed into indecomposable ones. Su and Yang ^[10] accurately characterized the structure of the representation ring of the restricted quantum group $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ when $q$ is a primitive $2p$-th $(p \ge 2)$ root of unity. In ^[14], the authors classified all the finite dimensional indecomposable $D(n)$ modules, and then gave the tensor product decomposition formulas between two indecomposables, at last described the representation ring by generators and relations clearly. In ^[15], for a class of $2n^2$ dimensional semisimple Hopf algebras $H_{2n^2}$, the authors classified all irreducible $H_{2n^2}$-modules, established the decomposition formulas of the tensor product of two irreducible $H_{2n^2}$-modules and described the Grothendieck rings $r(H_{2n^2})$ by generators and relations explicitly. In the present paper, we will consider the decomposition of tensor products and try to describe the projective class ring of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$.

The paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, we recall the definition of the new type restricted quantum group $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ and its Hopf algebra structure, and some preliminaries used in the following sections. In Section 3, we construct the principal indecomposable projective module $P_j$ through the primitive orthogonal idempotents of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$, and then study its composition series, radical series, socle series and some other related properties. In Section 4, we give the decomposition formulas of tensor products between two simple modules, two indecomposable projective modules and a simple module and an indecomposable projective module of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$. Furthermore, we describe the projective class ring by generators and relations explicitly.

Throughout the paper, we work over the complex field $\mathbb{C}$. The notations $\mathbb{Z}$ and $\mathbb {Z}^{\geq 0}$ denote the set of all integers, and the set of all nonnegative integers respectively.

2.   The restricted quantum group $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$

Fix an integer $n\geq 3\; (n\neq 4)$. From now on, we always assume that $q$ is a primitive $n$-th root of unity, and

First, we recall the definition of the new type restricted quantum group $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ and some properities as follows.

Definition 2.1. ^[13] The restricted quantum algebra $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ is an associative unital algebra generated by $K, K^{-1},$ $E,$ $F$ and subject to the following relations

Lemma 2.2. ^[13] ${\rm (1)}$ The set $\left\{ F^i K^k E^j | i, j, k\in \mathbb{Z}, 0\leq i, j, k < d \right\}$ is a basis of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2),$ and the dimension of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ is $d^3$.

${\rm (2)}$ $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ is a Hopf algebra with coproduct $\Delta$, counit $\varepsilon$ and antipode $S$ defined by

${\rm (3)}$ $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ is a pointed, basic but not semisimple Hopf algebra.

Lemma 2.3. ^[13] Let $M$ be a finite dimensional simple $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$-module. Then ${\rm dim}(M) = 1$ and the module structure on $M = \mathbb{C} v_0$ can be given as follows:

where $l\in \{0, 1, \cdots, d-1\}$ when $n$ is odd, $l \in \{0, 2, \cdots, {2(d-1)}\}$ when $n$ is even.

Lemma 2.4. ^[13] For any $i \in \mathbb{Z}_d$, set $\epsilon_i = \frac{1}{d}\sum\limits_{l = 0}^{d - 1} {{q^{ - 2il}}{K^l}}$. Obviously one has

$\{ {\epsilon_i}|i \in {\mathbb{Z}_d}\}$ is a complete set of primitive orthogonal idempotents of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$.

3.   The projective representations of the restricted quantum group $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$

Using the primitive orthogonal idempotents $\{ {\epsilon_i}|i \in {\mathbb{Z}_d}\}$ of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$, one has

Let $P_j = \overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2){\epsilon_j}$, then $\{ P_j| j\in \mathbb{Z}_d\}$ is the set of the nonisomorphic principal indecomposable projective modules of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$. As in ^[8], $P_j$ can be showed in Figure 1.

Each point represents a one-dimensional vector space generated by the vector at that point, the downward arrows indicate the left action of $E$, the right-oblique upward arrows indicate the left action of $F$. Figure 1 shows that there are $d^2$ black dots, so the dimension of $P_j$ is $d^2$.

From Figure 1, it is easy to see that if we delete one point and the arrows connecting it at a time, from left to right, and from top to bottom, then we get a modules series, in which the former module modulo the next one is a 1-dimensional simple module. Therefore, we obtain the composition series of $P_j$ as follows.

Proposition 3.1. The principal indecomposable projective module $P_j\; (j \in \mathbb{Z}_d)$ has the following composition series:

where for all $i \in \{ 0, 1, \ldots, d - 1\}$,

We can make the figures of ${M_1^j}$ and ${M_2^j}$ as follows (see Figures 2 and 3):

Proposition 3.2. The principal indecomposable projective module $P_j$ has a radical series as follows:

for all $i \in \{ 0, 1, \ldots, 2d - 1\},$

Proof. Recall that ${\rm{rad}}({P_j})$ is exactly the intersection of all the maximal submodules of ${P_j}$, and $P_j$ has a unique maximal submodule $M_1^j$, so that ${\rm{rad}}({P_j}) = M_1^j$, the figure is shown as before. ${\rm{ra}}{{\rm{d}}^2}({P_j})$ is the intersection of the maximal submodules of ${\rm{rad}}({P_j})$, and is the submodule obtained by removing $\mathbb{C}{E}{\epsilon_j}$ and $\mathbb{C}{F}{\epsilon_j}$ and the connecting arrows, as shown in Figure 4. Proceed this way, we have ${\rm{ra}}{{\rm{d}}^{2d - 2}}({P_j}) = \mathbb{C}{E^{d - 1}}{F^{d - 1}}{\epsilon_j}$, ${\rm{ra}}{{\rm{d}}^{2d - 1}}({P_j}) = 0.$ □

Proposition 3.3. The principal indecomposable projective module $P_j$ has a socle series as follows:

for all $i \in \{ 0, 1, \ldots, 2d - 1\},$

Proof. Recall that for $i\in \mathbb {Z}^{\geq 0}$, ${\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}^i}(P_j)$ is defined inductively as follows: ${\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}^0}(P_j) = 0$, and if ${\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}^i}(P_j)$ is already defined and $p: P_j\rightarrow {\rm{so}}{\rm{c}}(P_j)$ denotes the canonical epimorphism, we get ${\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}^{i+1}}(P_j) = p^{-1}({\rm{so}}{\rm{c}}(P_j/{\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}^i}(P_j)))$. Thus, by the definition, we have ${\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}^0}(P_j) = 0$, and as $P_j$ has only one simple submodule $\mathbb{C}E^{d-1}F^{d-1}{\epsilon_j}$, so ${\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}}(P_j) = \mathbb {C}E^{d-1}F^{d-1}{\epsilon_j}$. Inductively, we have ${\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}^2}(P_j) = \mathbb{C}E^{d-1}F^{d-1}{\epsilon_j} \oplus \mathbb{C}E^{d-1}F^{d-2}{\epsilon_j} \oplus \mathbb{C}E^{d-2}F^{d-1}{\epsilon_j};$ and we obtain a general expression of the socle series of the module $P_j$ as ${\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}^i}({P_j}) = \mathop {\mathop \bigoplus \limits_{0 \le k, l < d} }\limits_{2d - 1 - i \le k + l} \mathbb{C}{E^k}{F^l}{\epsilon_j}$, where $i \in \{ 0, 1, \ldots, 2d - 1\}$. □

More intuitively, we can draw the figures ${\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}}(P_j), \; {\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}^2}(P_j), \; {\rm{so}}{{\rm{c}}^3}(P_j)$ as follows (see Figure 5):

Observe the radical series and socle series of $P_j$, it is easy to see that

where $s+t = 2d-1, s, t\in\{0, 1, \cdots 2d-1\}$, and the length of the radical series(resp., the socle series) is $2d-1$.

Note that ${\dim _\mathbb{C}}{\epsilon_i}{\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)}{\epsilon_{j}} = d$, we have

Proposition 3.4. (1) The dimensional vector of $P_j$ is

(2) The $Cartan$ matrix of the algebra $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ is

4.   The projective class ring of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$

Let $H$ be a finite dimensional Hopf algebra and $M$ and $N$ be two finite dimensional $H$-modules. Then $M\otimes N$ is also a $H$-module defined by

for all $h\in H$ and $m\in M, n\in N$, where $\Delta(h) = \sum_{(h)}h_{(1)}\otimes h_{(2)}.$ By the Krull-Schmidt Theorem, any finite dimensional $H$-module can be decomposed into a direct sum of indecomposable $H$-modules.

Now we consider the tensor products of two irreducible $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$-modules.

From Lemma 2.3, we know that for $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ there are $d$ non-isomorphic simple modules $S_i = \mathbb{C}v_i, i \in \{ 0, 1, \ldots, d - 1\}$. Specifically, the module structure is:

We have the following theorem:

Theorem 4.1. $S_{i}\otimes S_{j}\cong S_{(i+j){(\mathit{\text{mod}}\; d)}}, \; (0 \le i, j \le d - 1).$

Proof. Suppose that $S_i$ and $S_j$ are two simple modules of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$, with basis $v_{i}, \; v_{j}$ respectively. Then $S_{i}\otimes S_{j}$ is also a $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$-module, with basis $v_{i}\otimes v_{j}$ and the actions of the generators are as follows

Therefore $S_{i}\otimes S_{j}\cong {S_{(i+j)(\text {mod}\; d)}}, \; (0 \le i, j \le d - 1).$ □

For the tensor products of a simple module with a projective module, we have

Theorem 4.2. $S_{i}\otimes P_{j}\cong P_{(i+j){(\mathit{\text{mod}}\; d)}} \cong P_{j}\otimes S_{i}, \; 0\leq i, j\leq d-1.$

Proof. Note that the basis of ${P_j}$ is $\left\{ {{E^k}{F^l}{\epsilon_j}|0 \le k, l \le d - 1} \right\}$, let

Then the matrix of $K$ on the basis of $l_{1}, l_{2}, \cdots, l_{d}, l_{d+1}, l_{d+2}, \cdots, l_{2d}, \cdots, l_{d^2-d+1}, l_{d^2-d+2}, \cdots, l_{d^2}$ is

where

The matrix of $E$ acting on this basis is

where

The matrix of $F$ acting on this basis is

where $I$ represents the identity matrix of order $d$.

Next we consider $S_i\otimes P_j$. Note that the bases of $S_i$ and $P_j$ are $v_{i}$ and ${E^k}{F^l}{\epsilon_j}, \{0 \le i, k, l \le d - 1\}$, respectively, it is obvious that

is a basis of $S_i\otimes P_j$. Let

Then $t_{1}, t_{2}, \cdots, t_{d^2}$ is also a basis of $S_i\otimes P_j$, since

where

and the transition matrix is invertible as $q$ is a primitive $n$-th root of unity. The matrix of $K$ on the basis of $t_{1}, t_{2}, \cdots, t_{d^2}$ is

where

The matrix of $E$ acting on this basis is ${B_2} = {B_1}$; the matrix of $F$ is ${C_2} = {C_1}$. Therefore we have $S_{i}\otimes P_{j}\cong P_{(i+j){(\text {mod}\; d)}}, (0 \le i, j \le d - 1).$ Now we consider $P_j\otimes S_i$. The bases of $P_j$ and $S_i$ are $\epsilon_j, \; E\epsilon_j, \cdots, E^{d-1}F^{d-1}\epsilon_j$ and $v_{i}$ respectively. Then we can take a basis of $P_j\otimes S_{i}$ as

Then the matrix of $K$ acting on this set of basis is ${A_3} = {A_2}$; the matrix of $E$ acting on this set of basis is ${B_3} = {B_1}$; the matrix of $F$ acting on this set of basis is ${C_3} = {C_1}$. In summary,

□

As in ^[8], we can show the tensor product by the following diagram.

Example 4.3. Let $n = 3$, $d = 3$ and ${q^3} = 1$, we can make the following structure diagram of $K$-eigenvalue, where a number $l$ stands for the $K$-eigenvalue $q^l$.

Observe that, we have $P_{0}\otimes S_1\cong P_1$, $P_{1}\otimes S_2\cong P_0$. Other results can be showed similarly, such that both $P_j\otimes S_i$ and $S_i\otimes P_j$ are consistent with the $K$-eigenvalue of $P_{(i+j) {(\text {mod}\; 3)}}$, and we have

Now we consider the tensor products of two projective $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$-modules. We have

Theorem 4.4. $P_i \otimes P_j\cong {(P_0 \oplus P_1 \oplus \cdots P_{d-1})^d}, \; 0\leq i, j\leq d-1.$

Proof. Let $P$ be a projective $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$-module. For any $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$-module $M$, $P\otimes M$, $M\otimes P$ are also projective modules. Suppose there is a $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$-module short exact sequence

then there exists a projective short exact sequence

where $P(V)$ is the projective cover of $V$, and we have

Now we calculate $P_i\otimes P_j$.

Note that $P_i$ is the projective cover of $S_{i}$, and there is an epimorphism

Let $\Omega(S_{i})$ be the kernel of the epimorphism, and we have the short exact sequence

then

and therefore

We write the composition series of $P_i$ below and find its composition factors. Let

Then

is the composition series of $P_i$. By the short exact sequences

we have

it follows that

Note that

then

since

then

as

then

By Theorem 4.2, we have

□

Let $H$ be a finite dimensional Hopf algebra. The Green ring $r(H)$ is defined as follows. $r(H)$ is the Abelian group generated by the isomorphism classes $[M]$ of finite dimensional $H$-modules $M$ modulo the relations $[M \oplus N] = [M] + [N]$. The multiplication of $r(H)$ is given by the tensor product $[M][N] = [M\otimes N]$. The Green ring $r(H)$ is an associative ring with identity given by $[\mathbb{k}_\varepsilon]$, the trivial 1-dimensional $H$-module. The projective class ring $\mathcal{P}(H)$ of H is the subring of $r(H)$ generated by projective modules and simple modules (see ^[16]).

In this section we will describe the projective class ring $\mathcal{P}(\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2))$ of the quantum group $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ explicitly by generators and generating relations.

Let $t = \left[S_{1}\right]$ be the isomorphism class of the simple module $S_1$, and $f = \left[P_1\right]$ the isomorphism class of the indecomposable projective module $P_1$. Then we have:

Lemma 4.5. The following statements hold in $\mathcal{P}(\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2))$.

$(1)\quad t^{d} = 1,$

$(2)\quad tf = ft,$

$(3)\quad f^2 = d(f + tf + {t^2}f + \cdots +{t^{d - 1}}f).$

Proof. By Theorem 4.1, we know that $\left[S_{1}\right]^{d} = \left[S_{0}\right] = 1$, hence we get (1). By Theorem 4.2, we have $tf = \left[S_{1}\right]\left[P_1\right] = \left[S_{1}\otimes P_1\right] = \left[P_1\otimes S_{1}\right] = \left[P_1\right]\left[S_{1}\right] = ft$, so we obtain that $tf = ft$. By Theorems 4.1, 4.2 and 4.4, we have

□

Corollary 4.6. The set $\{t^{i} f^{j} \mid 0 \leq i \leq d-1, 0 \leq j \leq 1\}$ is a set of $\mathbb{Z}$-basis of $\mathcal{P}(\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2))$.

Proof. $\mathcal{P}(\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2))$ has a set of $\mathbb{Z}$-basis $\left\{\left[S_{i}\right], \left[P_{i}\right]\mid 0 \leq i \leq d-1\right\}$, so the rank of $\mathcal{P}(\overline{U}_{q}(sl^{*}_2))$ is $2d$. From Lemma 3.5, it is known that $\left[S_{i}\right], \left[P_i\right]$ is $\mathbb{Z}$-spanned by the set $\left\{t^{i} f^{j} \mid 0 \leq i \leq d-1, 0 \leq j \leq 1\right\}$, so $\left\{t^{i} f^{j} \mid 0 \leq i \leq d-1, 0 \leq j \leq 1\right\}$ is actually a set of $\mathbb{Z}$-basis of $\mathcal{P}(\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2))$. □

Theorem 4.7. The projective class ring $\mathcal{P}(\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2))$ is isomorphic to the quotient ring $\mathbb{Z}\left[x, y\right] / \mathcal{I}$, where $\mathcal{I}$ is the ideal generated by the relationship

Proof. Let $\pi: \mathbb{Z}\left[x, y\right] \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}\left[x, y\right] / \mathcal{I}$ be the natural epimorphism such that for any $v \in \mathbb{Z}\left[x, y\right]$, $\bar{v} = \pi(v)$. We can straightforward to verify that the ring $\mathbb{Z}\left[x, y\right] / \mathcal{I}$ is $\mathbb{Z}$-spanned by the set $\left\{\overline {{x^i}{y^j}} \mid 0 \leq i\leq d-1, 0\leq j \leq 1 \right\}$. On the other hand, because $\mathcal{P}(\overline{U}_{q}(sl^{*}_2))$ is an commutative ring generated by $t, f$, there exists an unique ring epimorphism $\Phi: \mathbb{Z}\left[x, y\right] \rightarrow \mathcal{P}(\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2))$, where $\Phi\left(x\right) = t, \; \Phi\left(y\right) = f$. From Lemma 4.5, it is easily verified that

that is $\Phi(\mathcal{I}) = 0$, thus $\Phi$ induces a ring epimorphism

such that for any $v \in \mathbb{Z}\left[x, y\right]$, $\overline \Phi(\bar{v}) = \Phi(v)$. Then from Corollary 4.6, we can define a $\mathbb{Z}$-module homomorphism

with $\Psi ({t^i}{f^j}) = \overline {{x^i}{y^j}}$ for $0 \leq i\leq d-1, 0\leq j \leq 1$. Assume $\bar{v} \in \left\{\overline {{x^i}{y^j}} \mid 0 \leq i\leq d-1, 0\leq j \leq 1\right\}$, it is easy to check that $\Psi \circ \overline \Phi (\bar v) = \bar v$. Therefore $\Psi \circ \overline \Phi = \text {id}$, which means $\overline \Phi$ is a ring isomorphism. □

5.   Conclusions

For the new type restricted quantum group $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$ we give the decomposition formulas of tensor products between two simple modules, two indecomposable projective modules, and a simple module and an indecomposable projective module of $\overline{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}^{*}_2)$. Furthermore, we describe the projective class ring by generators and relations explicitly.
