Abstract

Let $\mathcal{B}_{\mathfrak{q}}$ be a finite-dimensional Nichols algebra of diagonal type corresponding to a matrix $\mathfrak{q}$. We consider the graded dual $\mathcal{L}_{\mathfrak{q}}$ of the distinguished pre-Nichols algebra $\widetilde{\mathcal{B}}_{\mathfrak{q}}$ from [A3] and the quantum divided power algebra $\mathcal{U}_{\mathfrak{q}}$, a suitable Drinfeld double of $\mathcal{L}_{\mathfrak{q}} \# \mathbf{k} \mathbb{Z}^{\theta}$. We provide basis and presentations by generators and relations of $\mathcal{L}_{\mathfrak{q}}$ and $\mathcal{U}_{\mathfrak{q}}$, and prove that they are noetherian and have finite Gelfand–Kirillov dimension.
