The q-field theories are constructed by substituting quantum groups for the usual Lie groups. In earlier papers this construction was carried out for the quantum group SU_q(2). Here the investigation is extended to SL_q(3). The resulting…

We generalize various properties of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over Hopf algebras to quasi-Hopf algebras. The dual of a finite dimensional Yetter-Drinfeld module is again a Yetter-Drinfeld module. The algebra $H_0$ in the category of…

The finite dimensional irreducible representations of the quantum supergroup $U_q(gl(m|n))$ are constructed geometrically using techniques from the Bott - Borel - Weil theory and vector coherent states.

2-Dim quantum Poincare` Group E_q(1,1) at roots of unity, its dual U_q(e(1,1)) and some of its homogeneous spaces are introduced. Invariant integrals on E_q(1,1) and its invariant discrete subgroup E(1,1\mid p) are constructed.…

A quiver mutation loop is a sequence of mutations and vertex relabelings, along which a quiver transforms back to the original form. For a given mutation loop, we introduce a quantity called a partition q-series. The partition q-series are…

This work presents a classification of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$-symmetries on the quantum disc. The principal invariant of such classification, the grading jump, is introduced. It turns out that, under the present subjects, the grading jump…

We show that the bicovariant first order differential calculi on a factorisable semisimple quantum group are in 1-1 correspondence with irreducible representations $V$ of the quantum group enveloping algebra. The corresponding calculus is…

We study various categories of Whittaker modules over the queer Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak q(n)$. We formulate standard Whittaker modules and reduce the problem of composition factors of these standard Whittaker modules to that of Verma…

We prove in the context of quantum groups at even roots of unity that a Turaev-Viro type invariant of a 3-dimensional cobordism M equals the tensor product of the Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants of M and M*, where M* denotes M with…

Any triple $(W,L,\rho)$, where $W$ is a compact closed oriented 3-manifold, $L$ is a link in $W$ and $\rho$ is a flat principal $B$-bundle over $W$ ($B$ is the Borel subgroup of upper triangular matrices of $SL(2,\mc)$), can be encoded by…

We define a notion of pseudo-unitarizability for weight modules over a generalized Weyl algebra (of rank one, with commutative coeffiecient ring $R$), which is assumed to carry an involution of the form $X^*=Y$, $R^*\subseteq R$. We prove…

We study relationships between the restricted unrolled quantum group $\overline{U}_q^H(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ at $2r$-th root of unity $q=e^{\pi i/r}, r \geq 2$, and the singlet vertex operator algebra $\mathcal M(r)$. We use deformable families…

We describe properties of the nonstandard q-deformation U'_q(so_n) of the universal enveloping algebra U(so_n) of the Lie algebra so_n which does not coincide with the Drinfeld--Jimbo quantum algebra U_q(so_n). In particular, it is shown…

We construct three classes of generalised orbifolds of Reshetikhin-Turaev theory for a modular tensor category $\mathcal{C}$, using the language of defect TQFT from [arXiv:1705.06085]: (i) spherical fusion categories give orbifolds for the…

Let g be a simple Lie algebra. We consider the category O-hat of those modules over the affine quantum group Uq(g-hat) whose Uq(g)-weights have finite multiplicity and lie in a finite union of cones generated by negative roots. We show that…

The universal Vassiliev-Kontsevich invariant is a functor from the category of tangles to a certain graded category of chord diagrams, compatible with the Vassiliev filtration and whose associated graded is an isomorphism. The Vassiliev…

We give a complete classification of modular categories of dimension $p^3m$ where $p$ is prime and $m$ is a square-free integer. When $p$ is odd, all such categories are pointed. For $p=2$ one encounters modular categories with the same…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with one and $q$ an invertible element of $R$. The (specialized) quantum group ${\mathbf U} = U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$ over $R$ of the general linear group acts on mixed tensor space $V^{\otimes r}\otimes…

This paper contains three related groupings of results. First, we consider a new notion of an admissible skein module of a surface associated to an ideal in a (non-semisimple) pivotal category. Second, we introduce the notion of a chromatic…

We classify parallelizable noncommutative manifold structures on finite sets of small size in the general formalism of framed quantum manifolds and vielbeins introduced previously. The full moduli space is found for $\le 3$ points, and a…
