The assignment of local observables in the vacuum sector, fulfilling the standard axioms of local quantum theory, is known to determine uniquely a compact group G of gauge transformations of the first kind together with a central involutive…

We prove the Hecke orbit conjecture of Chai--Oort for Shimura varieties of Hodge type at odd primes of good reduction. We use a novel result for the local monodromy groups of $F$-isocrystals "coming from geometry", which refines Crew's…

Let $R$ be an integral domain and $G$ be a subgroup of its group of units. We consider the category $\mathbf{\mathsf{Cob}}_G$ of 3-dimensional cobordisms between oriented surfaces with connected boundary, equipped with a representation of…

We study the family of Bethe subalgebras in the Yangian $Y(\mathfrak{g})$ parameterized by the corresponding adjoint Lie group $G$. We describe their classical limits as subalgebras in the algebra of polynomial functions on the formal Lie…

The automorphism group $Aut(X,\mu)$ of a compact, complete metric space $X$ with a Radon measure $\mu$ is a subgroup of $\mathcal{U}(L^2(X,\mu))$-the unitary group of operators on $L^2(X,\mu)$. The $Aut(X,\mu)$-action on the generalized…

We study actions of discrete groups on 2-categories. The motivating examples are actions on the 2-category of representations of finite tensor categories and their relation with the extension theory of tensor categories by groups.…

We prove a Hitchin-Kobayashi correspondence for affine vortices generalizing a result of Jaffe-Taubes for the action of the circle on the affine line. Namely, suppose a compact Lie group K has a Hamiltonian action on a Kaehler manifold X…

We investigate the nature of divergences in quantum field theory, showing that they are organized in the structure of a certain `` motivic Galois group'', which is uniquely determined and universal with respect to the set of physical…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system, let $\varphi$ be a weight function on $S$ and let ${\mathrm{Cact}}\_W$ denote the associated {\it cactus group}. Following an idea of I. Losev, we construct an action of ${\mathrm{Cact}}\_W \times…

Associated to each irreducible crystallographic root system $\Phi$, there is a certain cell complex structure on the torus obtained as the quotient of the ambient space by the coroot lattice of $\Phi$. This is the Steinberg torus. A main…

In this paper we completely classify symplectic actions of a torus $T$ on a compact connected symplectic manifold $(M, \sigma)$ when some, hence every, principal orbit is a coisotropic submanifold of $(M, \sigma)$. That is, we construct an…

We generalise the concept of a Steinberg cross-section to non-connected Kac-Moody group. As in the connected case, which was treated by G. Br\"uchert, a quotient map w.r.t the conjugacy action exists only on a certain submonoid of the…

The space of unordered configurations of distinct points in the plane is aspherical, with Artin's braid group as its fundamental group. Remarkably enough, the space of ordered configurations of distinct points on the real projective line,…

Motivated by ideas from string theory and quantum field theory new invariants of knots and 3-dimensional manifolds have been constructed from complex algebraic structures such as Hopf algebras (Reshetikhin and Turaev), monoidal categories…

The lattice of subgroups of a group is the subject of numerous results revolving around the central theme of decomposing the group into "chunks" (subquotients) that can then be compared to one another in various ways. Examples of results in…

We define a cohomology for an arbitrary $K$-linear semistrict semigroupal 2-category $(\mathfrak{C},\otimes)$ (called in the paper a Gray semigroup) and show that its first order (unitary) deformations, up to the suitable notion of…

Artin-Tits groups act on a certain delta-hyperbolic complex, called the "additional length complex". For an element of the group, acting loxodromically on this complex is a property analogous to the property of being pseudo-Anosov for…

Let $G$ be a compact and connected Lie group. The Hamiltonian $G$-model functor maps the category of symplectic representations of closed subgroups of $G$ to the category of exact Hamiltonian $G$-actions. Based on previous joint work with…

Given a braided tensor *-category C with conjugate (dual) objects and irreducible unit together with a full symmetric subcategory S we define a crossed product C\rtimes S. This construction yields a tensor *-category with conjugates and an…

Henriques and Kamnitzer have defined a commutor for the category of crystals of a finite-dimensional complex reductive Lie algebra that gives it the structure of a coboundary category (somewhat analogous to a braided monoidal category).…
