We deal with the reduction theory of a $W^*$-algebra $M$ along a $W^*$-subalgebra $Z$ of the centre of $M$. This is done by using Hilbert modules naturally constructed by suitable spatial representations of the abelian $W^*$-algebra $Z$. We…

We review some recent advances in modular representation theory of symmetric groups and related Hecke algebras. We discuss connections with Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras and gradings on the blocks of the group algebras $F\Sigma_n$, which…

We prove a general theorem showing that iterated skew polynomial extensions of the type which fit the conditions needed by Cauchon's deleting derivations theory and by the Goodearl-Letzter stratification theory are unique factorisation…

De Concini, Kac and Procesi defined a family of subalgebras U^w_+ of a quantized universal enveloping algebra U_q(g), associated to the elements of the corresponding Weyl group W. They are deformations of the universal enveloping algebras…

Let ${\mathfrak p}\subset {\mathfrak g}$ be a parabolic subalgebra of s simple finite dimensional Lie algebra over ${\mathbb C}$. To each pair $w^{\mathfrak a}\leq w^{\mathfrak c}$ of minimal left coset representatives in the quotient space…

We investigate monomial labellings on cell complexes, giving a minimal cellular resolution of the ideal generated by these monomials, and such that the associated quotient ring is Cohen-Macaulay. We introduce a notion of such a labelling…

Our main theorems provide a single geometric setting in which polynomial representatives for Schubert classes in the integral cohomology ring of the flag manifold are determined uniquely, and have positive coefficients for geometric…

In this paper, we prove that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a unital separable $C^*$-algebra, $\mathcal{M}$ is a von Neumann algebra which has the Kirchberg's quotient weak expectation property (QWEP), and $\phi:\, \mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{M}$…

Quantum theory may be formulated using Hilbert spaces over any of the three associative normed division algebras: the real numbers, the complex numbers and the quaternions. Indeed, these three choices appear naturally in a number of…

Let $R$ be a ring and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$. We introduce and study the notions of ($u$-)$S$-$w$-Noetherian modules and ($u$-)$S$-$w$-principal ideal modules. Some characterizations of these new concepts are given.

We study, from a combinatorial viewpoint, the quantized coordinate ring of mxn matrices over an infinite field K (also called quantum matrices) and its torus-invariant prime ideals. The first part of this paper shows that this algebra,…

We investigate aspects of Kauffman bracket skein algebras of surfaces and modules of 3-manifolds using quantum torus methods. These methods come in two flavors: embedding the skein algebra into a quantum torus related to quantum Teichmuller…

We give a general definition of classical and quantum groups whose representation theory is "determined by partitions" and study their structure. This encompasses many examples of classical groups for which Schur-Weyl duality is described…

The quantum nilpotent algebras U^w_-(g), defined by De Concini-Kac-Procesi and Lusztig, are large classes of iterated skew polynomial rings with rich ring theoretic structure. In this paper, we prove in an explicit way that all torus…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with one and $q$ an invertible element of $R$. The (specialized) quantum group ${\mathbf U} = U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$ over $R$ of the general linear group acts on mixed tensor space $V^{\otimes r}\otimes…

The main result describes the Brauer-Nesbitt reduction of unipotent representations of a finite group of Lie type, expressing it as an explicit linear combination of the restriction of Weyl modules from the algebraic group to the group of…

We introduce the notion of quantum Schur (or $q$-Schur) superalgebras. These algebras share certain nice properties with $q$-Schur algebras such as base change property, existence of canonical $\mathbb Z[v,v^{-1}]$-bases, and the duality…

The first part of this thesis studies the notion of a "quantum representation", introduced by J.-M. Souriau in order to provide a polarization-free characterization of the Lie group representations attached to coadjoint orbits. When the…

In a recent paper of the first author and Kashyap, a new class of modules over dual operator algebras is introduced. These generalize the W*-modules (that is, Hilbert C*-modules over a von Neumann algebra which satisfy an analogue of the…

Quantum spaces with $\frak{su}(2)$ noncommutativity can be modelled by using a family of $SO(3)$-equivariant differential $^*$-representations. The quantization maps are determined from the combination of the Wigner theorem for $SU(2)$ with…
