The underlying gauge group structure of the D=11 Cremmer-Julia-Scherk supergravity becomes manifest when its three-form field A_3 is expressed through a set of one-form gauge fields. These are associated with the generators of the elements…
An ultragraph gives rise to a labelled graph with some particular properties. In this paper we describe the algebras associated to such labelled graphs as groupoid algebras. More precisely, we show that the known groupoid algebra…
The $SU_3$-skein algebra of a surface $F$ is spanned by isotopy classes of certain framed graphs in $F\times I$ called $3$-webs subject to the skein relations encapsulating relations between $U_q(sl(3))$-representations. These skein…
When the theory of Leavitt path algebras was already quite advanced, it was discovered that some of the more difficult questions were susceptible to a new approach using topological groupoids. The main result that makes this possible is…
Many interesting examples of operator algebras, both self-adjoint and non-self-adjoint, can be constructed from directed graphs. In this survey, we overview the construction of $C^*$-algebras from directed graphs and from two…
We present an infinite sequence of finite graphs with trivial automorphism group and non-trivial quantum automorphism group. These are the first known examples of graphs with this property. Moreover, to the best of our knowledge, these are…
Given a graph $E$, an action of a group $G$ on $E$, and a $G$-valued cocycle $\phi$ on the edges of $E$, we define a C*-algebra denoted ${\cal O}_{G,E}$, which is shown to be isomorphic to the tight C*-algebra associated to a certain…
This paper is concerned with the structures introduced recently by the authors of the current paper concerning the multiplier Hopf $*$-graph algebras and also the Cuntz-Krieger algebras and their relations with the $C^*$-graph algebras, and…
We examine a class of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories in (3+1) dimensions whose Lagrangians are determined by graphs consisting of two building blocks, namely a tri-vertex and a line. A line represents an SU(2) gauge group and a…
The second author showed how Katsura's construction of the C*-algebra of a topological graph E may be twisted by a Hermitian line bundle L over the edge space E. The correspondence defining the algebra is obtained as the completion of the…
A new link between tetrahedra and the group SU(2) is pointed out: by associating to each face of a tetrahedron an irreducible unitary SU(2) representation and by imposing that the faces close, the concept of quantum tetrahedron is seen to…
We present a pedagogical introduction to SU(2) recoupling theory, focusing on those aspects of the topic which are useful for practical calculations in loop quantum gravity. In particular, we give a self-contained presentation of the…
We describe a construction by G\'abor Elek, associating C*-algebras with uniformly recurrent subgroups, in the language of groupoid C*-algebras. This allows us to simplify several proofs in the original paper and fully characterise their…
This review article consists of two parts. In the first part we use the formalism of (exceptional) generalized geometry to derive the scalar field space of SU(2)xSU(2)-structure compactifications. We show that in contrast to SU(3)xSU(3)…
Quantum analogs of Stiefel manifolds $SU_{q}(n)/SU_q(n-m)$ were introduced by Podkolzin \& Vainerman. The underlying $C^*$-algebra $C(SU_{q}(n)/SU_q(n-m))$ can be described as the $C^*$-subalgebra of $C(SU_q(n))$ generated by elements of…
Inspired by the work of Paterson on $C^{\ast}$-algebras of directed graphs, we show how to associate a groupoid $\mathfrak{G}_{\mathcal{G}}$ to an ultragraph $\mathcal{G}$ in such a way that the $C^*$-algebra of $\mathfrak{G}_{\mathcal{G}}$…
We define a semidirect product groupoid of a system of partially defined local homeomorphisms $T=(T_{1},..., T_{r})$. We prove that this construction gives rise to amenable groupoids. The associated algebra is a Cuntz-like algebra. We use…
We propose a general way to complete supersymmetric theories with operators below the unitarity bound, adding gauge-singlet fields which enforce the decoupling of such operators. This makes it possible to perform all usual computations, and…
We establish a relation between the trace evaluation in SO(3) topological quantum field theory and evaluations of a topological Tutte polynomial. As an application, a generalization of the Tutte golden identity is proved for graphs on the…
We prove that Matui's AH conjecture holds for graph groupoids of infinite graphs. This is a conjecture which relates the topological full group of an ample groupoid with the homology of the groupoid. Our main result complements Matui's…
