Let denote a field, and pick a nonzero q ∈ that is not a root of unity. Let ℤ₄ = ℤ/4ℤ denote the cyclic group of order 4. Define a unital associative -algebra □q by generators {xᵢ}ᵢ∈ℤ4 and relations (qxᵢxᵢ₊₁ − q⁻¹xᵢ₊₁xᵢ)/(q−q⁻¹) = 1, x³ᵢxᵢ₊₂ − [3]qx²ᵢxᵢ + ₂xᵢ + [3]qxᵢxᵢ₊₂x²ᵢ − xᵢ₊₂x³ᵢ=0, where [3]...
