Scientific paper
The basics of quasitriangular Hopf algebras and quantum Lie algebras are briefly reviewed, and it is shown that their properties allow the introduction of a Killing form. For quantum Lie algebras, this leads to the definitions of a Killing metric and quadratic casimir. The specific case of $\uea{su}{N}$ is examined in detail, where it is shown that many of the classical results are reproduced, and explicit calculations to illustrate the conclusions are presented for $\uea{su}{2}$.
