Let G be a split, simple, simply connected, algebraic group over Q. The degree 4, weight 2 motivic cohomology group of the classifying space BG of G is identified with Z. We construct cocycles representing the generator of this group, known…

In this paper, we show the existence of a near-group category of type $\mathbb{Z} / 4\mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z} / 4\mathbb{Z}+16$ and compute the modular data of its Drinfeld center. We prove that a modular data of rank $10$ can be…

In this paper we continue the project of generalizing tilting theory to the category of contravariant functors $Mod(C)$, from a skeletally small preadditive category $C$ to the category of abelian groups. We introduced the notion of a a…

We study the unitarity and modularity of ribbon tensor categories derived from simple affine Lie algebras, via their associated quantum groups. Based on numerical calculations, and assuming two conjectures, we provide the complete picture…

Let $U_q'(\mathfrak{g})$ be a quantum affine algebra of untwisted affine $ADE$ type, and $\mathcal{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^0$ the Hernandez-Leclerc category of finite-dimensional $U_q'(\mathfrak{g})$-modules. For a suitable infinite sequence…

We propose a framework for producing interesting subcategories of the category ${}_A\mathsf{Mod}$ of left $A$-modules, where $A$ is an associative algebra over a field $k$. The construction is based on the composition, $Y$, of the Yoneda…

Lyubashenko's construction associates representations of mapping class groups Map_{g,n} of Riemann surfaces of any genus g with any number n of holes to a factorizable ribbon category. We consider this construction as applied to the…

The modular class of a regular foliation is a cohomological obstruction to the existence of a volume form transverse to the leaves which is invariant under the flow of the vector fields of the foliation. By drawing on the relationship…

We introduce the notions of a $\mathbf{D}$-standard abelian category and a $\mathbf{K}$-standard additive category. We prove that for a finite dimensional algebra $A$, its module category is $\mathbf{D}$-standard if and only if any derived…

The Levin-Wen string-nets of a spherical fusion category $\mathcal{C}$ describe, by results of Kirillov and Bartlett, the representations of mapping class groups of closed surfaces obtained from the Turaev-Viro construction applied to…

We develop a categorical approach to quivers and their modules. Naturally this leads to a notion of an action of a monoidal category on quivers. Using this, we construct for a large class of quivers rigid monoidal structures on their…

Derivations provide a way of transporting ideas from the calculus of manifolds to algebraic settings where there is no sensible notion of limit. In this paper, we consider derivations in certain monoidal categories, called codifferential…

Let $A$ be a commutative algebra in a braided monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$; e.g., $A$ could be an extension of a vertex operator algebra (VOA) $V$ in a category $\mathcal{C}$ of $V$-modules. We study when the category $\mathcal{C}_A$ of…

The codomain category of a generalized homology theory is the category of modules over a ring. For an abelian category A, an A-valued (generalized) homology theory is defined by formally replacing the category of modules with the category…

We show that the braided tensor category of finitely-generated weight modules for the simple affine vertex operator algebra $L_k(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ at any admissible level $k$ is rigid and hence a braided ribbon…

The center Z(C) of a spherical fusion category C (over an arbitrary commutative ring) is modular. We give an algorithm for computing the Reshetikhin-Turaev invariant defined with Z(C). It is based on Hopf diagrams and an explicit…

We formulate the unitary rational orbifold conformal field theories in the algebraic quantum field theory framework. Under general conditions, we show that the orbifold of a given unitary rational conformal field theories generates a…

We introduce two new classes of fusion categories which are obtained by a certain procedure from finite groups - weakly group-theoretical categories and solvable categories. These are fusion categories that are Morita equivalent to iterated…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, $\mathfrak{g}$ be its Lie algebra, and $B$ be a Borel subgroup. We prove a formula for the dimensions of extension groups, in…

We consider generalized Haagerup categories such that $1 \oplus X$ admits a $Q$-system for every non-invertible simple object $X$. We show that in such a category, the group of order two invertible objects has size at most four. We describe…
