We show that a functor category whose domain is a colored category is a topos.The topos structure enables us to introduce cohomology of colored categories including quasi-schemoids. If the given colored category arises from an association…
$O(N)$ invariants are the observables of real tensor models. We use regular colored graphs to represent these invariants, the valence of the vertices of the graphs relates to the tensor rank. We enumerate $O(N)$ invariants as $d$-regular…
We describe some of the geometric properties of the automorphism group Aut(F) of Thompson's group F. We give realizations of Aut(F) geometrically via periodic tree pair diagrams, which lead to natural presentations and give effective…
We construct a certain `cobordism category' ${\cal D}$ whose morphisms are suitably decorated cobordism classes between similarly decorated closed oriented 1-manifolds, and show that there is essentially a bijection between…
The notion that elementary systems correspond to irreducible representations of the Poincare group is the starting point for this paper, which then goes on to discuss how a semigroup for the time evolution of unstable states and resonances…
This is an expository article. We survey some fundamental trends in representation theory of symmetric groups and related objects which became apparent in the last fifteen years. The emphasis is on connections with Lie theory via…
It is known that reflection coefficients for bulk fields of a rational conformal field theory in the presence of an elementary boundary condition can be obtained as representation matrices of irreducible representations of the classifying…
We introduce and study several affine (=annular in this paper) versions of the classical diagram algebras such as Temperley-Lieb, partition, Brauer, Motzkin, rook Brauer, rook, planar partition, and planar rook algebras. We give generators…
We study subgroups $H_U$ of the R. Thompson group $F$ which are stabilizers of finite sets $U$ of numbers in the interval $(0,1)$. We describe the algebraic structure of $H_U$ and prove that the stabilizer $H_U$ is finitely generated if and…
We continue to study Pythagorean unitary representation of Richard Thompson's groups $F,T,V$ and their extension to the Cuntz(-Dixmier) algebra. Any linear isometry from a Hilbert space to its direct sum square produces such. We focus on…
The structure of a new family of factorised $S$-matrix theories with resonance poles is reviewed. They are conjectured to correspond to the Homogeneous sine-Gordon theories associated with simply laced compact Lie groups. Two of their more…
In 1987, the second author of this paper reported his conjecture, all finite simple groups $S$ can be characterized uniformly using the order of $S$ and the set of element orders in $S$, to Prof. J. G. Thompson. In their communications,…
The aim of this paper is to survey some known results about mapping class group quotients by powers of Dehn twists, related to their finite dimensional representations and to state some open questions. One can construct finite quotients of…
Let g be a complex semisimple Lie algebra, and f : g --> g/G the adjoint quotient map. Springer theory of Weyl group representations can be seen as the study of the singularities of f. We give a generalization of Springer theory to visible,…
We use geometric techniques to investigate several examples of quasi-isometrically embedded subgroups of Thompson's group F. Many of these are explored using the metric properties of the shift map phi in F. These subgroups have simple…
We construct an abelian category C and exact functors in C which on the Grothendieck group descend to the action of a simply-laced quantum group in its adjoint representation. The braid group action in the adjoint representation lifts to an…
Here we consider two algebras, a free unital associative complex algebra (denoted by ${\mathcal{B}}$) equiped with a multiparametric \textbf{\emph{q}}-differential structure and a twisted group algebra (denoted by ${\mathcal{A}(S_{n})}$),…
The Magnus representation of the Torelli subgroup of the mapping class group of a surface is a homomorphism r: I_{g,1} -> GL_{2g}(Z[H]). Here H is the first homology group of the surface. This representation is not faithful; in particular,…
The main result of this article is an application of the theory of invariant convex cones of Lie algebras to the study of unitary representations of Lie supergroups. It also includes an exposition of recent results of the second author on…
We show that the counting of observables and correlators for a 3-index tensor model are organized by the structure of a family of permutation centralizer algebras. These algebras are shown to be semi-simple and their Wedderburn-Artin…
