1. Introduction
The notion of Hopf algebra actions on algebras was introduced by Beattie [
2,31] in 1976. A duality theorem for Hopf module algebras was studied by Blattner and Montgomery [
2] in 1985. It generalized the corresponding theorem of group actions. Moreover, the actions of Hopf algebras [
21] and their generalizations (see, e.g., [
15]) play an important role in quantum group theory [
19,
20] and in its various applications in physics [
9]. Duplij and Sinel’shchikov used a general form of the automorphism of the quantum plane to give the notion of weight for
-actions considered here, and completely classified quantum group
-module algebra structures on the quantum plane [
13,
14], so that the results are much richer and consist of 8 non-isomorphic cases. Moreover, In [
12] the authors used the method of weights [
13,
14] to classify some actions in terms of action matrices, the modules algebra structures of the quantum group
were studied on the coordinate algebra of quantum vector spaces, and the concrete actions of quantum group
on
were researched (also see [
24]). More relevant research can be found at [
10,
17].
The non-standard quantum groups were studied in [
16], Ge et al. obtained new solutions of Yang-Baxter equations and included the twisted extensions quantum group structures related to these new solutions explicitly. In [
2] one class of non-standard quantum deformation corresponding to simple Lie algebra
was given, which is denoted by
. For each vertex
of the Dynkin diagram, the parameter
is equal to
q or
, if
for all
i, then
is just
. However, if
for some
, it has the relations
in
. Such a
is different to
. Jing et al. [
18] derived a non-standard quantum group by employing the FRT constructive method, and classify all finite dimensional irreducible representations of this non-standard quantum group. Cheng and Yang [
11] considered the structures and representations of weak Hopf algebras
, which is corresponding to non-standard quantum group
. We [
22] researched the representations of a class of small nonstandard quantum groups
, over which the isomorphism classes of all indecomposable modules are classified, and the decomposition formulas of the tensor product of arbitrary indecomposable modules and simple (or projective) modules are established. The projective class rings and Grothendieck rings of
are also characterized. However, the research on module algebra of non-standard quantum groups has not yet yielded any results. Consequently, based on the research results of module algebra of quantum groups, we consider here the module algebra of the nonstandard quantum group
on the quantum polynomial algebra
. and a complete list of
-module algebra structures on
is produced and the isomorphism classes of these structures are described.
This paper is organized as follows. In
Section 1, we introduce some necessary notations and the concepts. In
Section 2, when
, we discuss the module algebra structures of
on the polynomial algebra
using the method of weights [
13,
14]. We study the concrete actions of
on
and characterize all module algebra structures of
on
. In
Section 3, we study the module algebra structures of
on
with
. In the same way of
Section 2, We study the concrete actions of
on
and characterize all module algebra structures of
on
.
2. Preliminaries

[
23].
Definition 2.1. By a structure of H-module algebra on A, we mean a homomorphism such that:

-module algebra structures on

and

.
3.1. Properties of -Module Algebras on
By the definition of module algebra, it is easy to see that any action of
on
is determined by the following
matrix with entries from
:
which is called the full action matrix. Given a
-module algebra structure on
, obviously, the action of
(or
) is determined by an automorphism of
, in other words, the actions of
and
are determined by a matrix
as follows
where
for
. It is easy to see that every monomial
is an eigenvector of
(or
), and the associated eigenvalue
(or
) is called the
-weight (or
-weight) of this monomial, which will be written as
We will also need another matrix
as follows
Obviously, all entries of
M are weight vectors for
and
, then
where the relation
means that for every pair of indices
such that both
and
are nonzero, one has
.
We denote by
the
j-th homogeneous component of
M, whose elements are just the
j-th homogeneous components of the corresponding entries of
M. Set
where,
. Then, we obtain
According to
q is not a root of the unit and relations (
19)-(
20), it means that each column of
should contain at least one 0.
An application of
E and
F to the relations (
11)-(
13) by using equation (
15), one has
After projecting equations (
21)-(
26) to
, we obtain
which certainly implies
We will determine the weight constants
,
and
as follows:
Because q is not a root of the unit, . Therefore at least one of , , and , , is not zero. In summary, we have obtained the following results for the 0-st homogeneous component of .
Lemma 3.1.
There are 7 cases for the 0-st homogeneous component of , as follows:
Next, for the 1-st homogeneous component, due to
q is not a root of the unit, one has
which implies
for some
, and in a similar way we have
where
. Therefore
Now project (
21)-(
26) to
to obtain
which certainly implies
As a consequence, we have
From the above discussion, for the 1-st homogeneous component of , we have following lemma.
Lemma 3.2.
There are 13 cases for the 1-st homogeneous component of , as follows:
3.2. The Structures of -Module Algebra on
In this subsection, our aim is to describe the concrete -module algebra structures on , where .
By Lemma 3.1 and 3.2, and q is not a root of the unit, it follows that if both the 0-th homogeneous component and the 1-th homogeneous component of are nonzero, it is easy to see that these series are empty. So, we need to consider following possibilities.
Lemma 3.3. If the 0-th homogeneous component of is zero and the 1-st homogeneous component of is nonzero, then these series are empty.
Proof. Now, we show that
-series is empty. If we suppose the contrary, then it follows from
that within this series, one can have
By
, one can get
, and
, hence
, and
On the other hand, projecting
to
we obtain
however,
. We have obtained contradictions and proved our claims.
In a similar way, one can prove that all other series with the 0-th homogeneous component of is zero and the 1-th homogeneous component of is nonzero are empty. □
Lemma 3.4. If the 0-th homogeneous component of is nonzero and the 1-st homogeneous component of is zero, then these series are empty.
Proof. We only show that -series is empty. in a similar way, one can prove that all other series are empty.
Consider this series, we obtain that
and suppose that it is not empty. We set
where
, and
. We have
then for all
with
, one has
And
then for all
with
, one has
If some
meet the conditions, i.e
one can get
this contradicts with
q is not a unit root. Therefore, for all
with
, we have
By discussing
,
,
,
and
using methods similar to
, we can obtain that
From
, we have
If , then
if , then , hence and
if , then
if , then , hence and
By , one has
if , then
if , then hence and
According to
, then
In summary, this series is empty. □
Next we turn to “nonempty” series, it only has a kind of "nonempty" series.
Theorem 3.5.
The-series has module algebra structures on given by
where , they are pairwise nonisomorphic.
Proof. It is easy to check that (
51)-(
54) determine a well-defined
-action consistent with the multiplication in
and in
, as well as with comultiplication in
. Prove that there are no other
-actions here. Note that an application of (
6) to
or
z has zero projection to
, ie.
, because in this series
E and
F send any monomial to a sum of the monomials of higher degree. Therefore,
and hence
which leads to
,
and
, let
,
and
, we have
,
and
. To prove (
54), note that if
or
, then they are a sum of the monomials that their degrees are greater than 1. It is similar to the proof of Lemma 3.4, we get that this is impossible, because they can not satisfy conditions of
-module algebra on
.
To see that the -module algebra structures are pairwise nonisomorphic, observe that all the automorphisms of commute with the actions of and . □

56). It is to easy check
and
By the definition of module algebra and (
1), we have

or
, we can write the latter as
, where
□
It is easy to see that every monomial
is an eigenvector of
(or
), and the associated eigenvalue
(or
) is called the
-weight (or
-weight) of this monomial, which will be written as
We will also need another matrix
as follows
Obviously,

Same as
Section 3, we denote by
the
j-th homogeneous component of
M. Obviously, if
is nonzero, one can calculate the associated eigenvalues.
Set
, we obtain the 0-th homogeneous component of
M as follow:
According to
q is not a root of the unit and relation (
60), it means that
and
(
and
) should contain at least one 0.
An application of
E and
F to the relations (
11)-(
13) by using equation (
56), one has
Because q is not a root of the unit, , and from the above discussion, for the 0-st homogeneous component of , we have following lemma.
Lemma 4.2.
There are 8 cases for the 0-st homogeneous component of , as follows:
Next, for the 1-st homogeneous component, due to
q is not a root of the unit, one has
which implies
for some

From the above discussion, and due to q is not a root of the unit, we can obtain the following lemma.
Lemma 4.3.
There are 18 cases for the 1-st homogeneous component of , as follows:
If , then and we have
If , then and we have
If , then and we have
If , then and we have
4.2. The structures of -module algebra on
Through the previous discussion, we found that both the 0-st homogeneous component and the 1-st homogeneous component determine the eigenvalues of x and z. By lemma 4.2 and lemma 4.3, and q is not a root of the unit, it follows that there are 91 kinds of are empty. Hence, we only discuss the following cases.
Lemma 4.4. If the 0-th homogeneous component of is zero and the 1-st homogeneous component of is nonzero, then these series are empty.
Proof. The proof is similar to the proof of Lemma 3.3. □
Lemma 4.5. If the 0-th homogeneous component of is nonzero and the 1-st homogeneous component of is zero, then these series are empty.
Proof. The proof is similar to the proof of Lemma 3.4. □
Lemma 4.6.
The-series is empty.
Proof. By (
67), one has

From Lemma 4.1, it can be concluded that , where , and .
If we suppose this series is not empty, we have

Similarly, we can get

3) and (
5), we have

this contradicts our hypothesis.
If

after calculation, we can conclude that

this contradicts our hypothesis.
In summary, this series is empty. □
Similar to Lemma 3.6, we can obtain

Next we turn to "nonempty" series, it only has one "nonempty" series.
