The property of being a quasi-triangular Hopf algebra is preserved by twisting via an invertible element F = ∑ i f i ⊗ f i ∈ A ⊗ A {\displaystyle F=\sum _{i}f^{i}\otimes f_{i}\in {\mathcal {A\otimes A}}} such that ( ε ⊗ i d ) F = ( i d ⊗ ε ) F = 1 {\displaystyle (\varepsilon \otimes id)F=(id\otimes \varepsilon )F=1} and satisfying the cocycle condition
Furthermore, u = ∑ i f i S ( f i ) {\displaystyle u=\sum _{i}f^{i}S(f_{i})} is invertible and the twisted antipode is given by S ′ ( a ) = u S ( a ) u − 1 {\displaystyle S'(a)=uS(a)u^{-1}} , with the twisted comultiplication, R-matrix and co-unit change according to those defined for the quasi-triangular quasi-Hopf algebra. Such a twist is known as an admissible (or Drinfeld) twist.
