Let $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ be the quantum supergroup of $\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n}$ or the modified quantum supergroup of $osp_{m|2n}$ over the field of rational functions in $q$, and let $V_q$ be the natural module for $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$. There…
Modular tensor categories are generalizations of the representation categories of quantum groups at roots of unity axiomatizing the properties necessary to produce 3-dimensional TQFTs. Although other constructions have since been found,…
We generalize to quantum weighted projective spaces in any dimension previous results of us on K-theory and K-homology of quantum projective spaces `tout court'. For a class of such spaces, we explicitly construct families of Fredholm…
For an arbitrary simple Lie algebra $\g$ and an arbitrary root of unity $q,$ the closed subsets of the Weyl alcove of the quantum group $U_q(\g)$ are classified. Here a closed subset is a set such that if any two weights in the Weyl alcove…
We study the weight modules over affine Kac-Moody algebras from the view point of vertex algebras, and determine the abelian category of weight modules for the simple affine vertex algebra $L_k(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ at any non-integral…
We ascertain conditions and structures on categories and semigroups which admit the construction of pseudo-products and trace products respectively, making their connection as precise as possible. This topic is modelled on the ESN Theorem…
Our main theorem is that the pullback of an associated noncommutative vector bundle induced by an equivariant map of quantum principal bundles is a noncommutative vector bundle associated via the same finite-dimensional representation of…
This paper is a self-contained introduction to the theory of renormalized Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants of links defined by Geer, Patureau-Mirand and Turaev. Whereas the standard Reshetikhin-Turaev theory of a $\mathbb{C}$-linear ribbon…
We define a family of the braid group representations via the action of the $R$-matrix (of the quasitriangular extension) of the restricted quantum $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ on a tensor power of a simple projective module. This family is an…
We formulate a systematic construction of commuting quantum traces for reflection algebras. This is achieved by introducing two sets of generalized reflection equations with associated consistent fusion procedures. Products of their…
Finite projective (lattice) geometries defined over rings instead of fields have recently been recognized to be of great importance for quantum information theory. We believe that there is much more potential hidden in these geometries to…
This paper works as an appendix of the paper titled Geometry of Associated Quantum Vector Bundles and the Quantum Gauge Group and for paper titled Yang-Mills-Connes Theory and Quantum Principal SU(N)-Bundles. Here, we are going to prove…
In this paper, we study the representation theory of the small quantum group $\overline{U}_q$ and the small quasi-quantum group $\widetilde{U}_q$, where $q$ is a primitive $n$-th root of unity and $n>2$ is odd. All finite dimensional…
The current form of quantum mechanics is very successful and is almost certainly correct. It is remarkable, however, that the entire structure-from the mass, spin and charge labels on particlelike states to antisymmetry to broken internal…
We discuss some consequences of the invertibility of Rickard complexes in a categorified quantum group. Results include a description of reflection functors for quiver Hecke algebras and a theory of restricting categorical representations…
Quantum groupoids are a joint generalization of groupoids and quantum groups. We propose a definition of a compact quantum groupoid that is based on the theory of C*-algebras and Hilbert bimodules. The essential point is that whenever one…
This expository article supplies the mathematical background underpinning the braid representation calculator introduced in arXiv:2212.00831; those representations describe the sets of logic gates available to a topological quantum computer…
Recently, uniqueness theorems were constructed for the representation used in Loop Quantum Gravity. We explore the existence of alternate representations by weakening the assumptions of the so called LOST uniqueness theorem. The weakened…
We have written down a set of notes on compact quantum groups from which all the different aspects can be learned in an easy way and such that a lot of insight can be obtained without too much effort. Compact quantum groups have been…
We consider quantum group theory on the Hilbert space level. We find all unitary representations of three braided quantum groups related to the quantum ``ax+b'' group. First we introduce an auxiliary braided quantum group, which is…
