Abstract

In present paper we define a new kind of weak quantized enveloping algebra of Borcherds superalgebras. We denote this algebra by \(wU_{q}^{\tau}(\mathcal{G})\). It is a noncommutative and noncocommutative weak graded Hopf algebra under some additional condition. It has a homomorphic image which is isomorphic to the usual quantum enveloping algebra \(U_{q}(\mathcal{G})\) of \(\mathcal{G}\).
