Abstract
In the first part of this thesis, we provide a proof that any color Lie bialgebra can be quantized. This was proved for Lie bialgebras by Etingof and Kazhdan. Here we generalize this proof to color Lie bialgebras, which are Lie bialgebras graded by an arbitrary abelian group and symmetry given by a bicharacter. Before giving the details of the proof, we first recall the definitions and basic properties of color Lie algebras and bialgebras. Also a generalization of the Grand Crochet introduced by Lecomte and Roger to the color setting is given. Using the Grand Crochet, we also provide a cohomology for color Lie bialgebras. In the second part, we study different type of Hom-algebras, especially Hom-Lie and Hom-associative algebras. Hom-algebras are algebras were the defining relations, e.g. the associativity, are twisted by a linear map alpha called structure map. We first recall the relevant definitions. Then we define a new cohomology for Hom-associative and Hom-Lie algebras called alpha-type Hochschild and Chevalley-Eilenberg cohomology respectively. We also show how these cohomologies can be used to study formal deformations, in the sense of Gerstenhaber, of Hom-associative and Hom-Lie algebras. We allow the deformation of the multiplication and the structure map. We also consider alpha type cohomologies for Hom-bialgebras. Moreover, we explore the corresponding homotopy Lie algebra structure such that the Maurer-Cartan elements are Hom-algebras.
