The tensor product of two oriented quantum algebras.

In this paper, we give the oriented quantum algebra (OQA) structures on the tensor product of two different OQAs by using Chen's weak ℜ -matrix in [J. Algebra204 (1998) 504–531]. As a special case, the OQA structures on the tensor product of an OQA with itself are provided, which are different from Radford's results in [J. Knot Theory Ramifications16 (2007) 929–957].
