Given a positive integer $n$ and a partition $(n_1,\ldots,n_r)$ of $n$, one can consider the associated $n$-dimensional multiprojective space $\mathbb{P}^{n_1}\times \cdots \times \mathbb{P}^{n_r}$. These multiprojective spaces are…
This is an expository article invited for the ``Commentary'' section of PNAS in connection with Y.-Z. Huang's article, ``Vertex operator algebras, the Verlinde conjecture, and modular tensor categories,'' appearing in the same issue of…
We describe equivalence classes of exact indecomposable module categories over a finite graded tensor category. When applied to a pointed fusion category, our results coincide with the ones obtained in [S. Natale, On the equivalence of…
We introduce the notions of normal tensor functor and exact sequence of tensor categories. We show that exact sequences of tensor categories generalize strictly exact sequences of Hopf algebras as defined by Schneider, and in particular,…
This is a survey on the state-of-the-art of the classification of finite-dimensional complex Hopf algebras. This general question is addressed through the consideration of different classes of such Hopf algebras. Pointed Hopf algebras…
We classify localising subcategories of the stable module category of a finite group that are closed under tensor product with simple (or, equivalently all) modules. One application is a proof of the telescope conjecture in this context.…
This paper is a sequel to "Localization of $\frak{u}$-modules. I", hep-th/9411050. We are starting here the geometric study of the tensor category $\cal{C}$ associated with a quantum group (corresponding to a Cartan matrix of finite type)…
Combinatorial Hopf algebras give a linear algebraic structure to infinite families of combinatorial objects, a technique further enriched by the categorification of these structure via the representation theory of families of algebras. This…
Given a finite modular tensor category, we associate with each compact surface with boundary a cochain complex in such a way that the mapping class group of the surface acts projectively on its cohomology groups. In degree zero, this action…
We obtain a complete classification of all finite-dimensional irreducible modules over classical map superalgebras, provide formulas for their (super)characters and a description of their extension groups. Furthermore, we describe the block…
We introduce an infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebra which is an extension of the U-duality Lie algebra of maximal supergravity in D dimensions, for D between 3 and 7. The level decomposition with respect to the U-duality Lie algebra gives…
In this paper we define a quantum version of the ``fusion'' tensor product of two representations of an affine Kac-Moody algebra.It is replaced by what we call fusion action of the category of finite-dimensional representations of quantum…
We define left and right kernels of representations of Hopf algebras. In the case of group algebras, left and right kernels coincide and they are the usual kernels of modules. In the general case we show that these kernels coincide with the…
For a given modular tensor category we study representations of the corresponding tube category whose isomorphism classes are modular invariant matrices. In particular, we provide a characterization of these representations in terms of the…
We construct algebras of endomorphisms in the derived category of the cohomology of arithmetic manifolds, which are generated by Hecke operators. We construct Galois representations with coefficients in these Hecke algebras and apply this…
We study the unitarity and modularity of ribbon tensor categories derived from simple affine Lie algebras, via their associated quantum groups. Based on numerical calculations, and assuming two conjectures, we provide the complete picture…
We initiate the systematic study of modular representations of symmetric groups that arise via the braiding in (symmetric) tensor categories over fields of positive characteristic. We determine what representations appear for certain…
We discuss the category $\cal I$ of level zero integrable representations of loop algebras and their generalizations. The category is not semisimple and so one is interested in its homological properties. We begin by looking at some…
In order to understand the structure of the cohomologies involved in the study of projectively equivariant quantizations, we introduce a notion of affine representation of a Lie algebra.We show how it is related to linear representations…
In this short note we show that representation and character varieties of discrete groups can be viewed as tensor products of suitable functors over the PROP of cocommutative Hopf algebras. Such view point has several interesting…
