"A gentle overview of some quantum algebras, quantum groups, and their prime and primitive ideals"
I will introduce some examples of quantum algebras and quantum groups, outlining some behaviour which they share with their classical counterparts. I will discuss the Goodearl--Letzter stratification of quantum algebras with respect to the actions of algebraic tori, which gives deep insights into the prime and primitive spectra of various quantum algebras.
