In this article we give examples which show that the TQFT representations of the mapping class groups derived from quantum SU(N) for N>2 are generically decomposable. One general decomposition of the representations is induced by the…

For $ k \in \mathbb{N}$ we introduce an idempotent subalgebra, the spherical partition algebra ${\mathcal{SP} }_{k}$, of the partition algebra ${\mathcal{P} }_{k}$, that we define using an embedding associated with the trivial…

We study the decomposition of tensor powers of two dimensional irreducible representations of quantum $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ at even roots of unity into direct sums of tilting modules. We derive a combinatorial formula for multiplicity of…

We identify the trace, or 0th Hochschild homology, of type ADE categorified quantum groups with the corresponding current algebra of the same type. To prove this, we show that 2-representations defined using categories of modules over…

We study tensor products of two-dimensional evaluation $U_q\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_2$-modules at generic values of $q$, $U_q\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_2$ homomorphisms between them, and closely related subjects.

Every simple Hermitian Lie group has a unique family of spherical representations induced from a maximal parabolic subgroup whose unipotent radical is a Heisenberg group. For most Hermitian groups, this family contains a complementary…

We start with definitions of the general notions of the theory of $\Bbb Z_{2}$-graded algebras. Then we consider theory of inductive families of $\Bbb Z_{2}$-graded semisimple finite-dimensional algebras and its representations in the…

Let $U_\varepsilon^{\mathrm{res}}(L\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ be the restricted integral form of the quantum loop algebra $U_q(L\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ specialised at a root of unity $\varepsilon$. We prove that the Grothendieck ring of a tensor…

We prove that many of the recently-constructed algebras and categories which appear in categorification can be equipped with an action of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ by derivations. The $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ representations which appear are filtered by…

We show that idempotent states on finite quantum groups correspond to pre-subgroups in the sense of Baaj, Blanchard, and Skandalis. It follows that the lattices formed by the idempotent states on a finite quantum group and by its…

We compute the integral cohomology of the minimal non-trivial nilpotent orbit in a complex simple (or quasi-simple) Lie algebra. We find by a uniform approach that the middle cohomology group is isomorphic to the fundamental group of the…

Unlike for locally compact groups, idempotent states on locally compact quantum groups do not necessarily arise as Haar states of compact quantum subgroups. We give a simple characterisation of those idempotent states on compact quantum…

We classify solvable Lie groups admitting left invariant symplectic half-flat structure. When the Lie group has a compact quotient by a lattice, we show that these structures provide solutions of supersymmetric equations of type IIA.

We show that there is a consistent polynomial quantization of the coordinate ring of a basic nilpotent coadjoint orbit of a semisimple Lie group. We also show, at least in the case of a nilpotent orbit in sl(2,R)*, that any such…

We give a new characterization of partial groups as a subcategory of symmetric (simplicial) sets. This subcategory has an explicit reflection, which permits one to compute colimits in the category of partial groups. We also introduce the…

We categorify the highest weight integrable representations and their tensor products of a symmetric quantum Kac-Moody algebra. As byproducts, we obtain a geometric realization of Lusztig's canonical bases of these representations as well…

We show that the weighted fusion category algebra of the principal 2-block $b_0$ of $\mathrm{GL}_2(q)$ is the quotient of the $q$-Schur algebra $\mathcal{S}_2(q)$ by its socle, for $q$ an odd prime power. As a consequence, we get a…

This paper is a continuation of Almost Commutative Terwilliger Algebras of Group Association Schemes I: Classification [1]. In that paper, we found all groups G for which the Terwilliger algebra of the group association scheme, denoted T…

The first part of this paper consists of lecture notes which summarize the machinery of filtered root invariants. A conceptual notion of "homotopy Greek letter element" is also introduced, and evidence is presented that it may be related to…

Given a strong 2-representation of a Kac-Moody Lie algebra (in the sense of Rouquier) we show how to extend it to a 2-representation of categorified quantum groups (in the sense of Khovanov-Lauda). This involves checking certain extra…
