The Langlands correspondence for complex curves is traditionally formulated in terms of sheaves rather than functions. Recently, Langlands asked whether it is possible to construct a function-theoretic version. In this paper we use the…
We revisit sheaves on locales by placing them in the context of the theory of quantale modules. The local homeomorphisms $p:X\to B$ are identified with the Hilbert $B$-modules that are equipped with a natural notion of basis. The…
Let $A$ be a ring and $\M_A$ the category of $A$-modules. It is well known in module theory that for any $A $-bimodule $B$, $B$ is an $A$-ring if and only if the functor $-\otimes_A B: \M_A\to \M_A$ is a monad (or triple). Similarly, an $A…
For a pair $(P,Q)$ of finite posets the generators of the ideal $L(P,Q)$ correspond bijectively to the isotone maps from $P$ to $Q$. In this note we determine all pairs $(P,Q)$ for which the Alexander dual of $L(P,Q)$ coincides with…
The theory of quandle (co)homology and cocycle knot invariants is rapidly being developed. We begin with a summary of these recent advances. One such advance is the notion of a dynamical cocycle. We show how dynamical cocycles can be used…
We consider the potential function of the colored Jones polynomial for a link with arbitrary colors and obtain the cone-manifold structure for the link complement. In addition, we establish a relationship between a saddle point equation and…
This work brings together ideas of mixing graph colourings, discrete homotopy, and precolouring extension. A particular focus is circular colourings. We prove that all the $(k,q)$-colourings of a graph $G$ can be obtained by successively…
The Schwinger-Dyson, Bethe-Salpeter system of equations are the link between coloured quarks and gluons, and colourless hadrons and their properties. This talk reviews some aspects of these studies from the infrared behaviour of ghosts to…
This paper is a sequel to my essay "Distributivity versus associativity in the homology theory of algebraic structures" Demonstratio Math., 44(4), 2011, 821-867 (arXiv:1109.4850 [math.GT]). We start from naive invariants of arc colorings…
We construct $S^r$-colored knot Floer homologies and prove that they satisfy categorified recurrence relations. The associated Euler characteristic implies $q$-holonomicity of the corresponding sequence of colored Alexander polynomials, in…
In this article we give a classification of the sub-groups in PSL(2,Z) and of the conjugacy classes of these sub-groups by the mean of an combinatorial invariant: some trivalent diagrams (dotted or not). We give explicit formulae enabling…
Joyce observed that the Alexander invariant and the medial quandle of a classical knot are equivalent to each other, as invariants. In the present paper, we discuss the rather complicated extension of Joyce's observation to several…
An automorphism of a graph product of groups is conjugating if it sends each factor to a conjugate of a factor (possibly different). In this article, we determine precisely when the group of conjugating automorphisms of a graph product…
We define a type of biquandle which is a generalization of symplectic quandles. We use the extra structure of these bilinear biquandles to define new knot and link invariants and give some examples.
In the previous paper, we defined a new category which categorifies the Hecke algebra. This is a generalization of the theory of Soergel bimodules. To prove theorems, the existences of certain homomorphisms between Bott-Samelson bimodules…
We show that quandle rings and their idempotents lead to proper enhancements of the well-known quandle coloring invariant of links in the 3-space. We give explicit examples to show that the new invariants are also stronger than the $\Hom$…
This paper aims to answer the following question: Given an adjunction between two categories, how is Quillen (co)homology in one category related to that in the other? We identify the induced comparison diagram, giving necessary and…
This paper discusses some issues arising from the category $\mathfrak{H}$ of hypergraphs, the category $\mathfrak{M}$ of (undirected) multigraphs, and the topos $\mathfrak{Q}$ of quivers. First, the natural inclusion of $\mathfrak{M}$ into…
We generalize the notion of biquandles to psyquandles and use these to define invariants of oriented singular links and pseudolinks. In addition to psyquandle counting invariants, we introduce Alexander psyquandles and corresponding…
In this paper, we consider categories with colored morphisms and functors such that morphisms assigned to morphisms with a common color have a common color. In this paper, we construct a morphism-colored functor such that any…
