Drinfel’d, V. G. Quantum groups. (Russian. English summary) Zbl 0617.16004 Zap. Nauchn. Semin. Leningr. Otd. Mat. Inst. Steklova 155, 18-49 (1986). This is an extended version of the talk at International Mathematical Congress, 1986. It surveys Hopf algebras as an algebraic foundation of a quantum inverse scattering method. Numerous examples of Hopf algebras are given, and their connection with the quantum Yang-Baxter identity is explained.
