We develop a new method for obtaining branching rules for affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras at negative integer levels. This method uses fusion rules for vertex operator algebras of affine type. We prove that an infinite family of ordinary…
In this paper we expand on previous results, studying the extent to which one can detect fusion in certain finite groups $\Gamma$, from information about the universal deformation rings of absolutely irreducible…
Let $\mathscr{C}$ be the category of finite-dimensional modules over a simply-laced quantum affine algebra $U_q(\widehat{\mathfrak{g}})$. For any height function $\xi$ and $\ell\in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 1}$, we introduce certain subcategories…

This paper studies the "reduction mod $p$" method, which constructs large classes of representations for a semisimple algebraic group $G$ from representations for the corresponding Lusztig quantum group $U_\zeta$ at a $p^r$-th root of…

ABSTRACT. Let $\Phi$ be a finite dimensional $K$-algebra and let $\mathscr{C} = \textrm{mod}\: \Phi$ be the abelian category of finitely generated right $\Phi$-modules. In their 1985 paper ``Modules determined by their composition…
We call a unital locally convex algebra $A$ a continuous inverse algebra if its unit group $A^\times$ is open and inversion is a continuous map. For any smooth action of a, possibly infinite-dimensional, connected Lie group $G$ on a…
Let $\Lambda $ be an artin algebra and $T$ a $\tau$-tilting $\Lambda$-module. We prove that $T$ is a tilting module if and only if ${\rm Ext}_{\Lambda}^{i}(T,\Fac T)=0$ for all $i\geq 1$, where $\Fac T$ is the full subcategory consisting of…
The long-standing Auslander and Reiten Conjecture states that a finitely generated module over a finite-dimensional algebra is projective if certain Ext-groups vanish. Several authors, including Avramov, Buchweitz, Iyengar, Jorgensen,…
