We give examples of Frobenius algebras of rank two over ground Dedekind rings which are projective but not free and discuss possible applications of these algebras to link homology.
Based on results about open string correlation functions, a nonassociative algebra was proposed in a recent paper for D-branes in a background with nonvanishing $H$. We show that our associative algebra obtained by quantizing the endpoints…
Following the pattern of the Frobenius structure usually assigned to the 1-dimensional sphere, we investigate the Frobenius structures of spheres in all other dimensions. Starting from dimension $d=1$, all the spheres are commutative…
A self-dual algebras is one isomorphic as a module to the opposite of its dual; a quasi self-dual algebra is one whose cohomology with coefficients in itself is isomorphic to that with coefficients in the opposite of its dual. For these…
Recently, Maurice Chayet and Skip Garibaldi introduced a class of commutative non-associative algebras. In previous work, we gave an explicit description of these algebras for groups of type $G_2,F_4$ and certain forms of $E_6$ in terms of…
For a couple of associative algebras we define the notion of their double and give a set of examples. Also, we discuss applications of such doubles to representation theory of certain quantum algebras and to a new type of Noncommutative…
We introduce the category of singular 2-dimensional cobordisms and show that it admits a completely algebraic description as the free symmetric monoidal category on a twin Frobenius algebra, by providing a description of this category in…
We construct Frobenius structures on the $\mathbb{C}^{\times}$-bundle of the complement of a toric arrangement associated with a root system, by making use of a one-parameter family of torsion free and flat connections on it. This gives…
Necessary and sufficient conditions for some deformation algebras to provide formal Frobenius structures are given. Also, examples of formal Frobenius structures with fundamental tensor that is not of the deformation type and examples of…
We show that the equivalence between several possible characterizations of Frobenius algebras, and of symmetric Frobenius algebras, carries over from the category of vector spaces to more general monoidal categories. For Frobenius algebras,…
We consider certain quotient algebras of tensor algebras of bimodules $M$ over a finite-dimensional algebra $R$, and we investigate Frobenius type properties of such algebras. Our main interest is in the case where $M=R^*$, the linear dual…
A review of the applications of noncommutative geometry to a systematic formulation of duality symmetries in string theory is presented. The spectral triples associated with a lattice vertex operator algebra and the corresponding…
The notion of a Frobenius manifold appears in relation to various topics in algebraic and analytic geometry, such and quantum cohomology, deformation of meromorphic connections, unfolding of singularities and others. In the local setting…
Any variety of classical algebras has a so-called conformal counterpart. For example one can consider Lie conformal or associative conformal algebras. Lie conformal algebras are closely related to vertex algebras. We define free objects in…
Motivated by M-theory, we define a new type of non-associative algebra involving usual and cubic matrices at the same time. The resulting algebra can be regarded as a two-term truncated $L_\infty$ algebra giving rise to a fundamental…
Two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) can be defined through its correlation functions. These must satisfy certain consistency conditions which arise from the cutting of world sheets along circles or intervals. The construction of a…
A general theory of the Frolicher-Nijenhuis and Schouten-Nijenhuis brackets in the category of modules over a commutative algebra is described. Some related structures and (co)homology invariants are discussed, as well as applications to…
Gendo-Frobenius algebras are a common generalisation of Frobenius algebras and of gendo-symmetric algebras. A comultiplication is constructed for gendo-Frobenius algebras, which specialises to the known comultiplications on Frobenius and on…
We functorially characterize groupoids as special dagger Frobenius algebras in the category of sets and relations. This is then generalized to a non-unital setting, by establishing an adjunction between H*-algebras in the category of sets…
We make an attempt to develop "noncommutative algebraic geometry" in which noncommutative affine schemes are in one-to-one correspondence with associative algebras. In the first part we discuss various aspects of smoothness in affine…
