We introduce a twisted version of $K$-theory with coefficients in a $C^*$-algebra $A$, where the twist is given by a new kind of gerbe, which we call Morita bundle gerbe. We use the description of twisted $K$-theory in the torsion case by…
A classic result of representation theory is Brauer's construction of a diagrammatical (geometrical) algebra whose matrix representation is a certain given matrix algebra, which is the commutating algebra of the enveloping algebra of the…
Let $G$ be the complex symplectic or special orthogonal group and $\g$ its Lie algebra. With every point $x$ of the maximal torus $T\subset G$ we associate a highest weight module $M_x$ over the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group $U_q(\g)$ and a…
We show that questions concerning the topological B-model on a Calabi-Yau manifold in the Landau-Ginzburg phase can be rephrased in the language of commutative algebra. This yields interesting and very practical methods for analyzing the…
Let g be a simple Lie algebra, with fixed Borel subalgebra b and with Weyl group W. Expanding on previous work of Fan and Stembridge in the simply laced case, this note aims to study the fully commutative elements of W, and their…
In the present paper we analyze algebraic structures arising in Yang-Mills theory. The paper should be considered as a part of a project started with a paper "On maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories" devoted to maximally…
We construct multi-brace cotensor Hopf algebras with bosonizations of quantum multi-brace algebras as examples. Quantum quasi-symmetric algebras are then obtained by taking particular initial data; this allows us to realize the whole…
We use some Lie group theory and Budney's unitarization of the Lawrence-Krammer representation, to prove that for generic parameters of definite form the image of the representation (also on certain types of subgroups) is dense in the…
We introduce an Ariki-Koike like extension of the Birman-Murakami-Wenzl Algebra and show it to be semi-simple. This algebra supports a faithful Markov trace that gives rise to link invariants of closures of Coxeter type B braids.
We relate commutative algebras in braided tensor categories to braid-reversed tensor equivalences, motivated by vertex algebra representation theory. First, for $\mathcal{C}$ a braided tensor category, we give a detailed construction of the…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring of characteristic zero and $G$ an arbitrary group. In the present paper we classify the groups $G$ for which the set of symmetric elements with respect to the classical involution of the group ring $RG$ is Lie…
In this paper, we introduce a concept of $\mathfrak{X}$-element with respect to an $M$-closed set $\mathfrak{X}$ in multiplicative lattices and study properties of $\mathfrak{X}$-elements. For a particular $M$-closed subset $\mathfrak{X}$,…
A complete system of primitive pairwise orthogonal idempotents for the Coxeter groups of type $B$ and, more generally, for the complex reflection groups $G(m,1,n)$ is constructed by a sequence of evaluations of a rational function in…
The Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebras (BMW algebras) of type En for n=6,7,8 are shown to be semisimple and free over a quotient of a polynomial algebra of ranks 1,440,585; 139,613,625; and 53,328,069,225. We also show they are cellular over…
The Morita equivalences of classical Brauer algebras and classical Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebras have been well studied. Here we study the Morita equivalence problems on these two kinds of algebras of simply-laced type, especially for them…
We prove a noncommutative analogue of Minkowski's integral inequality for commuting squares of tracial von Neumann algebras. The inequality implies a necessary condition for a quadruple of graphs to be realized as inclusion graphs of a…
For a commutative finite $\mathbb{Z}$-algebra, i.e., for a commutative ring $R$ whose additive group is finitely generated, it is known that the group of units of $R$ is finitely generated, as well. Our main results are algorithms to…
Multiplicative analogues of the shuffle elements of the braid group rings are introduced; in local representations they give rise to certain graded associative algebras (b-shuffle algebras). For the Hecke and BMW algebras, the…
We introduce a two-parameter refinement of the Jucys-Murphy theory, that we call the CJT-refinement, unifying Schur, zonal, and, conjecturally, Jack actions of the ring of symmetric functions on the Fock space. Applications of this…
Starting with the Brezis-Browder principle, we give stronger versions of many variational principles and minimal element theorems which appeared in the recent literature. Relationships among the elements of different sets of assumptions are…
