Explicit results concerning quantum quasi-shuffle algebras and their applications

Using the concept of mixable shuffles, we formulate explicitly the quantum quasi-shuffle product. We also provide a desirable description of the subalgebra generated by the set of primitive elements of the quantum quasi-shuffle bialgebra. A braided coalgebra structure which is dual to the quantum quasi-shuffle in some sense is constructed as well. We use quantum quasi-shuffle algebras to provide examples of Rota-Baxter algebras and tridendriform algebras.
