Three exceptional modular invariants of SU(4) exist at levels 4, 6 and 8. They can be obtained from appropriate conformal embeddings and the corresponding graphs have self-fusion. From these embeddings, or from their associated modular…
We generate by computer a basis of invariants for the fundamental representations of the exceptional Lie groups E(6) and E(7), up to degree 18. We discuss the relevance of this calculation for the study of supersymmetric gauge theories, and…
There is a long-standing belief that the modular tensor categories $\mathcal{C}(\mathfrak{g},k)$, for $k\in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq1}$ and finite-dimensional simple complex Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$, contain exceptional connected \'etale algebras…
We obtain formulae giving global dimensions for fusion categories defined by Lie groups G at level k and for the associated module-categories obtained via conformal embeddings. The results can be expressed in terms of Lie quantum…
This paper finds for all orthogonal algebras (i.e. the B and D series) all modular invariant 1-loop partition functions at levels 1,2,3. Previously, only those at level 1 were classified. An extraordinary number of exceptionals appear at…
We give graphical presentations for the two quantum subgroups of type $G_2$. To do this we use a method of extending a tensor category by embedding the planar algebra of a $\otimes$-generating object into the graph planar algebra of this…
The Reshetikhin - Turaev invariants arising from the quantum groups associated with the exceptional Lie algebras $G_2$, $F_4$ and $E_8$ at odd roots of unity are constructed and explicitly computed for all the lens spaces.
Spectral measures provide invariants for braided subfactors via fusion modules. In this paper we study joint spectral measures associated to the rank two Lie group $G_2$, including the McKay graphs for the irreducible representations of…
We begin an investigation of supersymmetric theories based on exceptional groups. The flat directions are most easily parameterized using their correspondence with gauge invariant polynomials. Symmetries and holomorphy tightly constrain the…
For any grading by an abelian group $G$ on the exceptional simple Lie algebra $\mathcal{L}$ of type $E_6$ or $E_7$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, we compute the graded Brauer invariants of simple…
We briefly discuss several algebraic tools that are used to describe the quantum symmetries of Boundary Conformal Field Theories on a torus. The starting point is a fusion category, together with an action on another category described by a…
For the affine Lie algebra $C_2^{(1)}$ we study non-principal and non-coprincipal admissible modules of integer level and their quantum Hamiltonian reduction, and show that they have $\Gamma_0(2)$-modular invariance.
We construct quantization of semisimple conjugacy classes of the exceptional group $G=G_2$ along with and by means of their exact representations in highest weight modules of the quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$. With every point $t$ of a…
We introduce the notion of a subregular subalgebra, which we believe is useful for classification of subalgebras of Lie algebras. We use it to construct a non-regular invariant generalized complex structure on a Lie group. As an…
Joint spectral measures associated to the rank two Lie group $G_2$, including the representation graphs for the irreducible representations of $G_2$ and its maximal torus, nimrep graphs associated to the $G_2$ modular invariants have been…
Four $\ZZ_+$-bigraded complexes with the action of the exceptional infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebra E(3,6) are constructed. We show that all the images and cokernels and all but three kernels of the differentials are irreducible…
A Hadwiger-type theorem for the exceptional Lie groups $G_2$ and $Spin(7)$ is proved. The algebras of $G_2$ or $Spin(7)$ invariant, translation invariant continuous valuations are both of dimension 10. Geometrically meaningful bases are…
Degenerate modules of the exceptional infinite-dimensional simple Lie superalgebras vle(3|6), ksle(5|10) and mb(3|8) have recently been constructed by Kac and Rudakov, and by Grozman, Leites and Shchepochkina. I rederive their results using…
This paper presents the classification, over the fields of real and complex numbers, of the minimal ${\mathbb Z}_2\times{\mathbb Z}_2$-graded Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras spanned by $4$ generators and with no empty graded sector. The…
In this paper we give a survey of various results about the topology of oriented Grassmannian bundles related to the exceptional Lie group G_2. Some of these results are new. We give self-contained proofs here. One often encounters these…
