Abstract

A quantum deformation of the classical conjugation action of ${\rm GL}(N,{\bb C})$ on the space of $N\times N$ matrices $M(N,{\bb C})$ is defined via a coaction of the quantum general linear group ${\cal O}({\rm GL}_q(N,{\bb C}))$ on the algebra of quantum matrices ${\cal O}(M_q(N,{\bb C}))$ . The coinvariants of this coaction are calculated. In particular, interesting commutative subalgebras of ${\cal O}(M_q(N,{\bb C}))$ generated by (weighted) sums of principal quantum minors are obtained. For general Hopf algebras, co-commutative elements are characterized as coinvariants with respect to a version of the adjoint coaction.
