We prove that the tensor product of a simple and a finite dimensional $\mathfrak{sl}_n$-module has finite type socle. This is applied to reduce classification of simple $\mathfrak{q}(n)$-supermodules to that of simple…

A consistent functional calculus approach to the spectral theorem for strongly commuting normal operators on Hilbert spaces is presented. In contrast to the common approaches using projection-valued measures or multiplication operators,…

This is the second paper in a series of papers aimed at providing a geometric construction of modular functors and topological quantum field theories from conformal field theory building on the constructions in [TUY] and [KNTY]. We give a…

Manifold calculus of functors has in recent years been successfully used in the study of the topology of various spaces of embeddings of one manifold in another. Given a space of embeddings, the theory produces a Taylor tower whose purpose…

We classify all simple $W_n$-modules with finite-dimensional weight spaces. Every such module is either of a highest weight type or is a quotient of a module of tensor fields on a torus, which was conjectured by Eswara Rao. This generalizes…

Manifold calculus is a form of functor calculus concerned with functors from some category of manifolds to spaces. A weakness in the original formulation is that it is not continuous in the sense that it does not handle well the natural…

A modular tensor category provides the appropriate data for the construction of a three-dimensional topological field theory. We describe the following analogue for two-dimensional conformal field theories: a 2-category whose objects are…

The Taylor tower of a functor from based spaces to spectra can be classified according to the action of a certain comonad on the collection of derivatives of the functor. We describe various equivalent conditions under which this action can…

Based on Stokes' theorem we derive a non-holomorphic functional calculus for matrices, assuming sufficient smoothness near eigenvalues, corresponding to the size of related Jordan blocks. It is then applied to the complex conjugation…

Let $\mathfrak{W}$ be the Lie algebra of vector fields on the line. Via computing extensions between all simple modules in the category $\mathcal{O}$, we give the block decomposition of $\mathcal{O}$, and show that the representation type…

We present a quick approach to computing the $K$-theory of the category of locally compact modules over any order in a semisimple $\mathbb{Q}$-algebra. We obtain the $K$-theory by first quotienting out the compact modules and subsequently…

Convex hexagons that can tile the plane have been classified into three types. For the generic cases (not necessarily convex) of the three types and two other special cases, we classify tilings of the plane under the assumption that all…

Let V be a vertex operator algebra. We construct a sequence of associative algebras A_n(V) (n=0,1,2,...) such that A_{n}(V) is a quotient of A_{n+1}(V) and a pair of functors between the category of A_n(V)-modules which are not…

Rational function approximations find applications in many areas including macro-modeling of high-frequency circuits, model order reduction for controller design, interpolation and extrapolation of system responses, surrogate models for…

Using the theory of coalgebra, we introduce a uniform framework for adding modalities to the language of propositional geometric logic. Models for this logic are based on coalgebras for an endofunctor on some full subcategory of the…

We will explain how elementary concepts of relative homological algebra yield the Taylor tower for functors from pointed categories to abelian groups recovering the constructions of Johnson and McCarthy.

We extend the modular orbits method of constructing a two-dimensional orbifold conformal field theory to higher genus Riemann surfaces. We find that partition functions on surfaces of arbitrary genus can be constructed by a straightforward…

We introduce FA-matrices for computing ranks of vector bundles of coinvariants and conformal blocks associated with modules over vertex operator algebras on the moduli space of stable pointed curves, unifying the notions of fusion and…

We tackle the problem of constructing $R$-matrices for the category $\mathcal{O}$ associated to the Borel subalgebra of an arbitrary untwisted quantum loop algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$. For this, we define an exact functor $\mathcal{F}_q$…

We study high-dimensional analogues of spaces of long knots. These are spaces of compactly-supported embeddings (modulo immersions) of $\mathbb{R}^m$ into $\mathbb{R}^n$. We view the space of embeddings as the value of a certain functor at…
