We prove exact complexity dichotomies for two quantum invariants of closed oriented three-manifolds, with the categorical data fixed. For a modular category $\mathcal{C}$, computing the Reshetikhin--Turaev invariant $Z_{\mathcal{C}}(M)$…
Doplicher and Roberts originally posed the problem of extending their duality theory for compact groups and field reconstruction to theories admitting braided symmetry. In this paper, we address this problem for the Wess-Zumino-Witten model…
We consider the tube algebra of a spherical semisimple multitensor category $\mathcal{X}$, and construct a braided monoidal structure with twist for its representations. We further show that this category is braided tensor equivalent with…
In this paper, the Drinfeld center of a monoidal category is generalized to a class of mixed Drinfeld centers. This gives a unified picture for the Drinfeld center and a natural Heisenberg analogue. Further, there is an action of the former…
The Drinfeld double associated to the weak multiplier Hopf ($*$-) algebra pairing $\left\langle A, B\right\rangle$ is constructed. We show that the Drinfeld double is again a weak multiplier Hopf ($*$-) algebra. If $A$ and $B$ are algebraic…
Consider a Frobenius kernel G in a split semisimple algebraic group, in very good characteristic. We provide an analysis of support for the Drinfeld center Z(rep(G)) of the representation category for G, or equivalently for the…
In this work we develop some aspects of the theory of Hopf algebras to the context of autonomous map pseudomonoids. We concentrate in the Hopf modules and the Centre or Drinfel'd double. If $A$ is a map pseudomonoid in a monoidal bicategory…
In this paper, we will introduce a notion of basis related Morita equivalence in the Cuntz--Krieger algebras $({{\mathcal{O}}_A}, \{S_a\}_{a \in E_A})$ with the canonical right finite basis $\{S_a\}_{a \in E_A}$ as Hilbert $C^*$-bimodule,…
We prove that two dual operator algebras are weak$^*$ Morita equivalent if and only if they have equivalent categories of dual operator modules via completely contractive functors which are also weak$^*$-continuous on appropriate morphism…
In this paper, we define the notion of induced representations of a Hilbert $C^{*}$-module and we show that Morita equivalence of two Hilbert modules (in the sense of Moslehian and Joita), implies the equivalence of categories of…
Given a pivotal module category over a spherical fusion category, we introduce the encircling module, a module over the fusion algebra defined using the pivotal structure, and prove that it is isomorphic to the NIM-rep as a fusion algebra…
The construction and classification of super-modular categories is an ongoing project, of interest in algebra, topology and physics. In a recent paper, Cho, Kim, Seo and You produced two mysterious families of super-modular data, with no…
This paper addresses the question of how categorical symmetries act on extended operators in quantum field theory. Building on recent results in two dimensions, we introduce higher tube categories and algebras associated to higher fusion…
We classify Lagrangian subcategories of the representation category of a twisted quantum double of a finite group. In view of results of 0704.0195v2 this gives a complete description of all braided tensor equivalent pairs of twisted quantum…
The category of Hilbert modules may be interpreted as a naive quantum field theory over a base space. Open subsets of the base space are recovered as idempotent subunits, which form a meet-semilattice in any firm braided monoidal category.…
In this chapter we survey some particular topics in category theory in a somewhat unconventional manner. Our main focus will be on monoidal categories, mostly symmetric ones, for which we propose a physical interpretation. These are…
We consider the category of C*-algebras equipped with actions of a locally compact quantum group. We show that this category admits a monoidal structure satisfying certain natural conditions if and only if the group is quasitriangular. The…
We use the newly developed stacky prismatic technology of Drinfeld and Bhatt-Lurie to give a uniform, group-theoretic construction of smooth stacks $\mathrm{BT}^{G,\mu}_{n}$ attached to a smooth affine group scheme $G$ over $\mathbb{Z}_p$…
G-equivariant modular categories provide the input for a standard method to construct 3d homotopy field theories. Virelizier constructed a G-equivariant category from the action of a group G on a Hopf algebra H by Hopf algebra…
In this paper we consider algebras with involution over a ring C which is given by the quadratic extension by i of an ordered ring R. We discuss the *-representation theory of such *-algebras on pre-Hilbert spaces over C and develop the…
