Let $\Sigma$ be a surface with negative Euler characteristic, genus at least one and at most one boundary component. We prove that the skein algebra of $\Sigma$ over the field of rational functions can be algebraically generated by a finite…

We construct a $k$-fold $q$-series as a generating function of $k$-regular partitions for each positive integer $k$. The $k=1$ case is one of Euler's $q$-series identities pertaining to the partitions into distinct parts. The construction…

Quantum groups were invented largely to provide solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation and hence solvable models in 2-dimensional statistical mechanics and one-dimensional quantum mechanics. They have been hugely successful. But not all…

We construct inclusions of the form $(B_0\otimes P)^G\subset (B_1\otimes P)^G$, where $G$ is a compact quantum group of Kac type acting on an inclusion of finite dimensional $\c^*$-algebras $B_0\subset B_1$ and on a $II_1$ factor $P$. Under…

Using a family of graded algebra structures on a planar algebra and a family of traces coming from random matrix theory, we obtain a tower of non-commutative probability spaces, naturally associated to a given planar algebra. The associated…

An explicit form of the generators of quantum and ordinary semisimple algebras for an arbitrary finite-dimensional representation is found. The generators corresponding to the simple roots are obtained in terms of a solution of a system of…

There is an established bijection between finite-index subgroups Gamma of Gamma(2) and bipartite graphs on surfaces, or, equivalently, certain triples of permutations. We utilize this relationship to study both congruence and noncongruence…

This paper introduces the cyclic subfactors, generalizing the cyclic groups as the subfactors generalize the groups, and generalizing the natural numbers as the maximal subfactors generalize the prime numbers. On one hand, a theorem of O.…

We study the ideals of the partition, Brauer, and Jones monoid, establishing various combinatorial results on generating sets and idempotent generating sets via an analysis of their Graham--Houghton graphs. We show that each proper ideal of…

Although degree bounds and algorithms for the generators of various invariant rings have been known for decades, little is known about the cardinality of minimal generating sets. Estimates of such would provide lower bounds for the runtime…

Jones introduced unitary representations of Thompson group $F$ starting from a given subfactor planar algebra, and all unoriented links arise as matrix coefficients of these representations. Moreover, all oriented links arise as matrix…

Recent results by Andrews and Merca on the number of even parts in all partitions of n into distinct parts, a(n), were derived via generating functions. This paper extends these results to the number of parts divisible by k in all the…

We display a new family of prime ideals with unbounded minimal number of generators in a three-dimensional power series ring over a field of characteristic zero. These primes are obtained as the kernel of a quasi-monomial algebra…

Analyzing massive complex networks yields promising insights about our everyday lives. Building scalable algorithms to do so is a challenging task that requires a careful analysis and an extensive evaluation. However, engineering such…

It is a classical problem to compute a minimal set of invariant polynomial generating the invariant ring of a finite group as an algebra. We present here an algorithm for the computation of minimal generating sets in the non-modular case.…

Let $A$ be an associative algebra with identity and with trace. We study the family of planar algebras on 1-boxes that arise from $A$ in the work of Jones, but with the added assumption that the labels on the 1-boxes come from a discrete…

The kernel of the natural projection of a graph product of groups onto their direct product is called the Cartesian subgroup of the graph product. This construction generalises commutator subgroups of right-angled Coxeter and Artin groups.…

Given a connected graph $G=(V,E)$, a set $S\subseteq V$ is a $k$-metric generator for $G$ if for any two different vertices $u,v\in V$, there exist at least $k$ vertices $w_1,...,w_k\in S$ such that $d_G(u,w_i)\ne d_G(v,w_i)$ for every…

Ore proved that a finite group is cyclic if and only if its subgroup lattice is distributive. Now, since every subgroup of a cyclic group is normal, we call a subfactor planar algebra cyclic if all its biprojections are normal and form a…

Proving a conjecture of Dennis Johnson, we show that the Torelli subgroup of the mapping class group has a finite generating set whose size grows cubically with respect to the genus of the surface. Our main tool is a new space called the…
