We show that two well-studied classes of tame algebras coincide: namely, the class of symmetric special biserial algebras coincides with the class of Brauer graph algebras. We then explore the connection between gentle algebras and…

Let g be a symmetrisable Kac-Moody algebra, and U_h(g) the corresponding quantum group. We showed in arXiv:1610.09744 and arXiv:1610.09741 that the braided quasi-Coxeter structure on integrable, category O representations of U_h(g) which…

We define geodesic normal forms for the general series of complex reflection groups G(de,e,n). This requires the elaboration of a combinatorial technique in order to determine minimal word representatives and to compute the length of the…

We define and study generalized nil-Coxeter algebras associated to Coxeter groups. Motivated by a question of Coxeter (1957), we construct the first examples of such finite-dimensional algebras that are not the 'usual' nil-Coxeter algebras:…

This paper dates back to 1999 but was never published. The major part of it was included in the joint paper [Digne-Gomi, Presentation of pure braid groups, J. Knot Theory and its Ramifications 10 (2001) 609--623]. Sections 2 and 6 were not…

We construct a naturally $\mathbb Z$-graded algebra $\mathscr G_n(\delta)$ over $R$ with KLR-like relations and give an explicit isomorphism between $\mathscr G_n(\delta)$ and $\mathscr B_n(\delta)$, the Brauer algebras over $R$, when $R$…

In this paper we define almost gentle algebras. They are monomial special multiserial algebras generalizing gentle algebras. We show that the trivial extension of an almost gentle algebra by its minimal injective co-generator is a symmetric…

Aiming for a revival of the theory of crystallographic complex reflection groups, we compute (minimal) Coxeter-like reflection presentations for the infinite families of those non-genuine groups which satisfy Steinberg's fixed point…

For each n>0, we define an algebra having many properties that one might expect to hold for a Brauer algebra of type Bn. It is defined by means of a presentation by generators and relations. We show that this algebra is a subalgebra of the…

We introduce a BMW type algebra for every Coxeter group. These new algebras are introduced as deformations of the Brauer type algebras introduced by the author, they have the corresponding Hecke algebras as quotients.

Let g be a complex, semisimple Lie algebra. We prove the existence of a quasi-Coxeter, quasitriangular quasibialgebra structure on the enveloping algebra of g, which binds the quasi-Coxeter structure underlying the Casimir connection of g…

For a homogeneous space X of a connected algebraic group G (with connected stabilizers) over a field k of characteristic zero, we construct a canonical complex of Galois modules of length 3 and a canonical isomorphism between an…

We consider the group algebra over the field of complex numbers of the Weyl group of type B (the hyperoctahedral group, or the group of signed permutations) and of the Weyl group of type D (the demihyperoctahedral group, or the group of…

A new basis of the $q$-Brauer algebra is introduced, which is a lift of Murphy bases of Hecke algebras of symmetric groups. This basis is a cellular basis in the sense of Graham and Lehrer. Subsequently, using combinatorial language we…

We determine the structure of the cyclotomic Hecke algebra corresponding to the complex reflection group $G_{25}$ also when it is not semisimple, as long as the generators are diagonalizable. In particular, we classify all simple…

Biserial algebras are a classical class in the representation theory of algebras, generalizing Nakayama algebras. They were further generalized by Green and Schroll to multiserial algebras, which share many structural properties with…

We study the subgroup B_0(G) of H^2(G,Q/Z) consisting of all elements which have trivial restrictions to every Abelian subgroup of G. The group B_0(G) serves as the simplest nontrivial obstruction to stable rationality of algebraic…

For any finite Coxeter system $(W,S)$ we construct a certain noncommutative algebra, so-called {\it bracket algebra}, together with a familiy of commuting elements, so-called {\it Dunkl elements.} Dunkl elements conjecturally generate an…

We have previously shown that the isomorphism classes of orientable locally trivial fields of $C^*$-algebras over a compact metrizable space $X$ with fiber $D\otimes \mathbb{K}$, where $D$ is a strongly self-absorbing $C^*$-algebra, form an…

We study two variations of the Brauer algebra $B_n(x)$. The first is the algebra $A_n(x)$, which generalizes the Brauer algebra by considering loops. The second is the algebra $L_n(x)$, the $A_n(x)$-subalgebra generated by diagrams without…
