Abstract

In this paper, we construct a class of new modules for the quantum group Uq(sl2) which are free of rank 1 when restricted to C[K±1]. The irreducibility of these modules and submodule structure for reducible ones are determined. It is proved that any C[K±1]-free Uq(sl2)-module of rank 1 is isomorphic to one of the modules we constructed, and their isomorphism classes are obtained. We also investigate the tensor products of the C[K±1]-free modules with finite-dimensional simple modules over Uq(sl2), and for the generic cases, we obtain direct sum decomposition formulas for them, which are similar to the well-known Clebsch–Gordan formula for tensor products between finite-dimensional weight modules over Uq(sl2).
