Deutsch, Feynman, and Manin viewed quantum computing as a kind of universal physical simulation procedure. Much of the writing about quantum Turing machines has shown how these machines can simulate an arbitrary unitary transformation on a…
Let $\mathbf{U}$ be a quantum group of symmetric type. We introduce the {\it thickening realization} to realize (a suitable approximation of) the tensor product ${^{\omega}\Lambda_{\lambda_1}}\otimes \Lambda_{\lambda_2}$ of a simple…
Let $\Mg$ denote the moduli space of compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$. Mumford had proved that, for each fixed genus $g$, there are isomorphisms asserting that certain higher $DET$ bundles over $\Mg$ are certain fixed…
In his 1944 paper Ver\"anderliche Riemannsche Fl\"achen , Teichm\"uller defined a structure of complex manifold on the set of isomorphism classes of marked closed Riemann surfaces of genus g. The complex manifold he obtained is the space…
For each compact, simple, simply-connected Lie group and each integer level we construct a modular tensor category from a quotient of a certain subcategory of the category of representations of the corresponding quantum group. We determine…
We study the dynamical Teichm\"uller space ${\mathcal T}(U,f)$ associated to a wandering domain $U$ of an entire function $f$. We show that a discrete grand orbit relation in $U$ forces ${\mathcal T}(U,f)$ to be infinite dimensional,…
We verify that the $p$-integrable Teichm\"uller space $T_p$ admits the canonical complex Banach manifold structure for any $p \geq 1$. Moreover, we characterize a quasisymmetric homeomorphism corresponding to an element of $T_p$ in terms of…
The goal of this expository article is to explain how a fundamental functional on the space of Jordan curves arising from SLE - Loewner energy - is connected to a seemingly far apart subject: the K\"ahler geometry of universal Teichm\"uller…
We introduce coordinates for a principal bundle $S\tilde T(F)$ over the super Teichmueller space $ST(F)$ of a surface $F$ with $s\geq 1$ punctures that extend the lambda length coordinates on the decorated bundle $\tilde T(F)=T(F)\times…
Over the past two decades the theory of the Weil-Petersson metric has been extended to general Teichm\"uller spaces of infinite type, including for example the universal Teichm\"uller space. In this paper we give a survey of the main…
We interpolate a new family of Teichm\"uller spaces $T_{\sharp}^X$ between the universal Teichm\"uller space $T$ and its little subspace $T_0$, which we call the Teichm\"uller space of piecewise symmetric homeomorphisms. This is defined by…
Using the tensor product variety introduced by Malkin and Nakajima, the complete structure of the tensor product of a finite number of integrable highest weight modules of U_q(sl_2) is recovered. In particular, the elementary basis,…
We provide an algebraic description of the Teichm\"uller space and moduli space of flat metrics on a closed manifold or orbifold and study its boundary, which consists of (isometry classes of) flat orbifolds to which the original object may…
We give a presentation of the endomorphism algebra $\End_{\cU_q(\fsl_2)}(V^{\otimes r})$, where $V$ is the 3-dimensional irreducible module for quantum $\fsl_2$ over the function field $\C(q^{{1/2}})$. This will be as a quotient of the…
We show that the deformation theory of Fr\'echet algebras for actions of K\"ahlerian Lie groups developed by two of us, leads in a natural way to examples of non-compact locally compact quantum groups. This is achieved by constructing a…
This note announces the proof of a conjecture of H. Verlinde, according to which the spaces of Liouville conformal blocks and the Hilbert spaces from the quantization of the Teichm\"uller spaces of Riemann surfaces carry equivalent…
Quantization of the Teichm\"uller space of a punctured Riemann surface $S$ is an approach to $3$-dimensional quantum gravity, and is a prototypical example of quantization of cluster varieties. Any simple loop $\gamma$ in $S$ gives rise to…
We introduce a correspondence between dimer models (and hence superconformal quivers) and the quantum Teichmuller space of the Riemann surfaces associated to them by mirror symmetry. Via the untwisting map, every brane tiling gives rise to…
We prove that the dynamical Teichm\"uller space of a rational map immerses into the space of rational maps of the same degree, answering a question of McMullen and Sullivan. This is achieved through a new description of the tangent and…
In arXiv:0912.1346, four quantum dilogarithm identities containing infinitely many factors are proposed as wall-crossing formula for refined BPS invariant. We give algebraic proof of these identities using the formula for universal R-matrix…
