In [F] H. Furusho proves the beautiful result that of the three defining equations for associators, the pentagon implies the two hexagons (see also [W]). In this note we present a simpler proof for this theorem (although our paper is less…
The main subject of the paper is the pentagon relation. This relation can be expressed in different ways. We start with the natural geometric form of the pentagon relation. Then we express it in algebraic form as a family of equations with…
A premonoidal category is equipped only with a bifunctor and a natural isomorphism for associativity. We introduce a (deformation) natural automorphism representing the deviation from the Pentagon condition. We uncover a binary tree…
The author will prove that Drinfel'd's pentagon equation implies his two hexagon equations in the Lie algebra, pro-unipotent, pro-$l$ and pro-nilpotent contexts.
For a finite dimensional algebra $A$, we prove that the bounded homotopy category of projective $A$-modules and the bounded derived category of $A$-modules are dual to each other via certain categories of locally-finite cohomological…
Various monoidal categories, including suitable representation categories of vertex operator algebras, admit natural Grothendieck-Verdier duality structures. We recall that such a Grothendieck-Verdier category comes with two tensor products…
This is a slightly corrected version of the article published by Functional Analysis and its Applications in 1993. We define the quadratic duality for algebras with nonhomogeneous relations; the duality between the algebra of differential…
We formulate the pentagon relation for quantum dilogarithm elements in the structure group of a quantum cluster scattering diagram (QCSD). As an application, we show the nonpositivity of a certain class of nonskew-symmetric QCSDs. Also, we…
We consider symmetric partial exclusion and inclusion processes in a general graph in contact with reservoirs, where we allow both for edge disorder and well-chosen site disorder. We extend the classical dualities to this context and then…
Polygon equations generalize the prominent pentagon equation in very much the same way as simplex equations generalize the famous Yang-Baxter equation. In particular, they appeared as ''cocycle equations'' in Street's category theory…
We recently conjectured a set of dualities relating two-dimensional orthogonal gauge theories with $\mathcal{N}=(4,4)$ supersymmetry, analogous to Hori's dualities with $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetry. Here we provide a quantitative test…
In spacetime dimensions of 4 (i.e., 3+1) and higher, topological orders exhibit spatially extended excitations like loops and membranes, which support diverse topological data characterizing braiding, fusion, and shrinking processes,…
This is the first in a series of papers that deals with duality statements such as Mukai-duality (T-duality, from algebraic geometry) and the Baum-Connes conjecture (from operator $K$-theory). These dualities are expressed in terms of…
We rederive a popular nonsemisimple fusion algebra in the braided context, from a Nichols algebra. Together with the decomposition that we find for the product of simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules, this strongly suggests that the relevant…
It is shown that the Heisenberg double has a canonical element, satisfying the pentagon relation. From a given invertible constant solution to the pentagon relation one can restore the structure of the underlying algebras. Drinfeld double…
We present a generalization of multiple orthogonal polynomials of type I and type II, which we call multiple orthogonal polynomials of mixed type. Some basic properties are formulated, and a Riemann-Hilbert problem for the multiple…
We look for 3-dimensional Poisson-Lie dualizable sigma models that satisfy the vanishing beta-function equations with constant dilaton field. Using the Poisson-Lie T-plurality we then construct 3-dimensional sigma models that correspond to…
We compute the mixed correlation function in a way which involves only the orthogonal polynomials with degrees close to $n$, (in some sense like the Christoffel Darboux theorem for non-mixed correlation functions). We also derive new…
Mixed (asymmetric) orthogonal arrays (MOAs) generalize classical orthogonal arrays by allowing columns over different alphabets. However, their study requires very different structural tools than those used for symmetric orthogonal arrays…
This article investigates duals for bimodule categories over finite tensor categories. We show that finite bimodule categories form a tricategory and discuss the dualities in this tricategory using inner homs. We consider inner-product…
