The Drinfeld twist for the opposite quasi-Hopf algebra is determined and is
shown to be related to the (second) Drinfeld twist. The twisted Drinfeld twist
is investigated. In the quasi-triangular case it is shown that the Drinfeld u
operator arises from the equivalence of the opposite quasi-Hopf algebra to the
quasi-Hopf algebra induced by twisting with the R-matrix. The Altschuler-Coste
u operator arises in a similar way and is shown to be closely related to the
Drinfeld u operator. The quasi-cocycle condition is introduced, and is shown to
play a central role in the uniqueness of twisted structures on quasi-Hopf
algebras. A generalisation of the dynamical quantum Yang-Baxter equation,
called the quasi-dynamical quantum Yang-Baxter equation is introduced.
