This paper introduces a group-theoretic framework to analyze the algebraic structure of the Grover walk on a complete graph with self-loops. We construct a group generated by the Grover matrix and a diagonal matrix whose entries are powers…

In this thesis we will study matrix models with discrete gauge group $S_N$. We will put these matrix models into a generalized Schur-Weyl duality framework where dual algebras, known as partition algebras, emerge. These form generalizations…

Let $V^{\otimes n}$ be the $n$-fold tensor product of a vector space $V.$ Following I. Schur we consider the action of the symmetric group $S_n$ on $V^{\otimes n}$ by permuting coordinates. In the `super' ($\Bbb Z_2$ graded) case…

The affine Schur algebra $\widetilde{S}(n,r)$ (of type A) over a field $K$ is defined to be the endomorphism algebra of the tensor space over the extended affine Weyl group of type $A_{r-1}$. By the affine Schur-Weyl duality it is…

Motivated by the harmonic analysis of self-affine measures, we introduce a class of representations of the Cuntz algebra associated to random walks on graphs. The representations are constructed using the dilation theory of row…

It is well-known that the commutant algebra of the $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$-action on the $n$-fold tensor product of its fundamental module is isomorphic to the Temperley-Lieb algebra TL$_n(\nu)$ with fugacity parameter $\nu = -q - q^{-1}$…

In this paper we study a class of discrete quantum walks, known as bipartite walks. These include the well-known Grover's walks. Any discrete quantum walk is given by the powers of a unitary matrix $U$ indexed by arcs or edges of the…

The Schur-Weyl duality, which started as the study of the commuting actions of the symmetric group $S_d$ and $\mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{C})$ on $V^{\otimes d}$ where $V=\mathbb{C}^n$, was extended by Drinfeld and Jimbo to the context of the…

The Weyl modules are the standard modules for the Schur algebra. Their duals (the costandard modules) have well-known constructions as quotients of exterior powers and as submodules of symmetric powers. This paper presents analogous…

In this note, we investigate a kind of double centralizer property for general linear supergroups. For the super space $V=\mathbb{K}^{m\mid n}$ over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K}$ whose characteristic is not equal to $2$, we…

Schur-Weyl duality is a fundamental framework in combinatorial representation theory. It intimately relates the irreducible representations of a group to the irreducible representations of its centralizer algebra. We investigate the analog…

We propose a new approach to study the Kronecker coefficients by using the Schur-Weyl duality between the symmetric group and the partition algebra. We explain the limiting behavior and associated bounds in the context of the partition…

Let $G$ be a complex linear algebraic group, $\mathfrak{g}=\Lie(G)$ its Lie algebra and $e\in\mathfrak{g}$ a nilpotent element. Vust's theorem says that in case of $G=\GL(V)$, the algebra $\mbox{End}_{G_e}(V^{\otimes d})$, where $G_e\subset…

We construct a new type of quantum walks on simplicial complexes as a natural extension of the well-known Szegedy walk on graphs. One can numerically observe that our proposing quantum walks possess linear spreading and localization as in…
