For p>3 a prime, and g>2 an integer, we use Topological Quantum Field Theory (TQFT) to study a family of p-1 highest weight modules L_p(lambda) for the symplectic group Sp(2g,K) where K is an algebraically closed field of characteristic p.…
We endow a non-semisimple category of modules of unrolled quantum sl(2) with a Hermitian structure. We also prove that the TQFT constructed in arXiv:1202.3553 using this category is Hermitian. This gives rise to projective representations…

In this paper we provide a general condition for the reducibility of the Reshetikhin-Turaev quantum representations of the mapping class groups. Namely, for any modular tensor category with a special symmetric Frobenius algebra with a…
By considering appropriate finite covering spaces of closed non-orientable surfaces, we construct linear representations of their mapping class group which have finite index image in certain big arithmetic groups.
The twisted q-Yangians are coideal subalgebras of the quantum affine algebra associated with gl(N). We prove a classification theorem for finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the twisted q-Yangians associated with the…
We give an irreducible decomposition of the so-called local representations (see arXiv:0707.2151) of the quantum Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}_q(\Sigma)$ where $\Sigma$ is a punctured surface of genus $g>0$ and $q$ is a primitive $N$-th…
We study finite dimensional algebras that appear as fibers of quantum orders over a given point of variety of center. We present the formula for the number of irreducible representations and check it for it for the algebra of twisted…
We discuss connections between certain classes of supersymmetric quiver gauge theories and integrable lattice models from the point of view of topological quantum field theories (TQFTs). The relevant classes include 4d $\mathcal{N} = 1$…

Highest weight representations of $U_q(su(1,1))$ with $q=\exp \pi i/N$ are investigated. The structures of the irreducible hieghesat weight modules are discussed in detail. The Clebsch-Gordan decomposition for the tensor product of two…
We prove that for a suitable class of representations of free group tensor products are generically irreducible. In particular we prove that there exist irreducible boundary realizations with infinite dimensional fiber.
We use quantum invariants to define an analytic family of representations for the mapping class group of a punctured surface. The representations depend on a complex number A with |A| <= 1 and act on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space.…
We study the problem of determining if the braid group representations obtained from quantum groups of types $E, F$ and $G$ at roots of unity have infinite image or not. In particular we show that when the fusion categories associated with…
We find bases for naturally defined lattices over certain rings of integers in the SU(2)-TQFT-theory modules of surfaces. We consider the TQFT where the Kauffman's A variable is a root of unity of order four times an odd prime. As an…
The aim of this paper is to give a complete classification of irreducible finite dimensional representations of the nonstandard q-deformation U'_q(so(n)) (which does not coincide with the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum algebra U_q(so(n)) of the…
A theorem of Glimm states that representation theory of an NGCR C*-algebra is always intractable, and the Cuntz algebra O_N is a case in point. The equivalence classes of irreducible representations under unitary equivalence cannot be…
We define for real $q$ a unital $*$-algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}))$ quantizing the universal enveloping $*$-algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})$. The $*$-algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}))$ is realized as a…
