It is shown that spatially flat, isotropic cosmologies derived from the Brans--Dicke gravity action exhibit a scale factor duality invariance. This classical duality is then associated with a hidden $N=2$ supersymmetry at the quantum level…
We define an extension of the affine Brauer algebra, the type B/C affine Brauer algebra. This new algebra contains the hyperoctahedral group and it naturally acts on $END_K(X \otimes V^{\otimes k})$ for Orthogonal and Symplectic groups.…
Classical W-gravities and the corresponding quantum theories are reviewed. W-gravities are higher-spin gauge theories in two dimensions whose gauge algebras are W-algebras. The geometrical structure of classical W-gravity is investigated,…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $\Y$ a $G$-gerbe over an orbifold $\B$. A disconnected orbifold $\hat{\Y}$ and a flat U(1)-gerbe $c$ on $\hat{\Y}$ is canonically constructed from $\Y$. Motivated by a proposal in physics, we study a…
The goal of the present paper is to prove with simple algebraic methods a Schur duality between Cherednik's double affine Hecke algebra of type GL(l) and the toroidal quantum group of type SL(n+1) introduced by V. Ginzburg, M. Kapranov and…
In this paper, we study the structures of Schur algebra and Lusztig algebra associated to partial flag varieties of affine type D. We show that there is a subalgebra of Lusztig algebra and the quantum groups arising from this subalgebras…
After establishing a geometric Schur-Weyl duality in a general setting, we recall this duality in type A in the finite and affine case. We extend the duality in the affine case to positive parts of the affine algebras. The positive parts…
We study the dynamics of a large class of N=1 quiver theories, geometrically realized by type IIB D-brane probes wrapping cycles of local Calabi-Yau threefolds. These include N=2 (affine) A-D-E quiver theories deformed by superpotential…
We establish the Schur-Weyl type duality between double affine Hecke algebras and quantum toroidal superalgebras, generalizing the well known result of Vasserot-Varagnolo [VV96] to the super case.
The subalgebra of diagonal elements of a quantum matrix group has been conjectured by Daniel Krob and Jean-Yves Thibon to be isomorphic to a cubic algebra, coined the quantum pseudo-plactic algebra. We present a functorial approach to the…
We study the (quantum) Schur algebras of type B/C corresponding to the Hecke algebras with unequal parameters. We prove that the Schur algebras afford a stabilization construction in the sense of Beilinson-Lusztig-MacPherson that constructs…
We study the Schur algebra counterpart of a vast class of quantum wreath products. This is achieved by developing a theory of twisted convolution algebras, inspired by geometric intuition. In parallel, we provide an algebraic Schurification…
In these lecture notes for a summer mini-course, we provide an exposition on quantum groups and Hecke algebras, including (quasi) R-matrix, canonical basis, and $q$-Schur duality. Then we formulate their counterparts in the setting of…
Classical W-algebras in higher dimensions have been recently constructed. In this letter we show that there is a finitely generated subalgebra which is isomorphic to the algebra of local diffeomorphisms in D dimensions. Moreover, there is a…
We establish a duality relation between one of the twisted group algebras of the hyperoctahedral groupf H_k and a Lie superalgebra q(n_0) \oplus q(n_1) for any integers k and n_0, n_1, where q(n_0) and q(n_1) denote the ``queer''…
The geometry of the classical phase space C of a finite number of degrees of freedom determines the possible duality symmetries of the corresponding quantum mechanics. Under duality we understand the relativity of the notion of a quantum…
We provide the geometric construction of a series of generalized Schur algebras of any type via Borel-Moore homologies and equivariant K-groups of generalized Steinberg varieties. As applications, we obtain a Schur algebra analogue of the…
This note is a sequel to Shu-Xue-Yao's paper \cite{BYY} where the author studied the so-called enhanced groups and related dualities for type $A$. In this note, we continue to investigate the enhanced dualities for classical groups of type…
We formulate and classify super Satake diagrams under a mild assumption, building on arbitrary Dynkin diagrams for finite-dimensional basic Lie superalgebras. We develop a theory of quantum supersymmetric pairs associated to the super…
We study the equivalence/duality between various non-commutative gauge models at the classical and quantum level. The duality is realised by a linear Seiberg-Witten-like map. The infinitesimal form of this map is analysed in more details.
