This thesis provides an introduction to the various category theory ideas employed in topological quantum field theory. These theories are viewed as symmetric monoidal functors from topological cobordism categories into the category of…
Let $k$ be a global function field with field of constants $\Fr$ and let $\infty$ be a fixed place of $k$. In his habilitation thesis \cite{boc2}, Gebhard B\"ockle attaches abelian Galois representations to characteristic $p$ valued cusp…
Generalizing deformation quantizations with separation of variables of a K\"ahler manifold $M$, we adopt Fedosov's gluing argument to construct a category $\mathsf{DQ}$, enriched over sheaves of $\mathbb{C}[[\hbar]]$-modules on $M$, as a…
For an arbitrary infinite field k of characteristic p > 0, we describe the structure of a block of the algebraic monoid M_n(k) (all n x n matrices over k), or, equivalently, a block of the Schur algebra S(n,p), whose simple modules are…
In this paper we study the derived categories of coherent sheaves on Grassmannians $\operatorname{Gr}(k,n),$ defined over the ring of integers. We prove that the category $D^b(\operatorname{Gr}(k,n))$ has a semi-orthogonal decomposition,…
We consider a subclass of the class of group-theoretical fusion categories: To every finite group $G$ and subgroup $H$ one can associate the category of $G$-graded vector spaces with a two-sided $H$-action compatible with the grading. We…
In this paper we categorify the q-Schur algebra S(n,d) as a quotient of Khovanov and Lauda's diagrammatic 2-category U(sln). We also show that our 2-category contains Soergel's monoidal category of bimodules of type A, which categorifies…
We provide geometric constructions of modules over the graded Cherednik algebra $\mathfrak{H}^{gr}_\nu$ and the rational Cherednik algebra $\mathfrak{H}^{rat}_\nu$ attached to a simple algebraic group $\mathbb{G}$ together with a pinned…
We discuss a new perspective on Khovanov homology, using categorifications of tensor products. While in many ways more technically demanding than Khovanov's approach (and its extension by Bar-Natan), this has distinct advantage of directly…
Khovanov-Lauda define a 2-category $\mathcal{U}$ such that the split Grothendieck group $K_0(\mathcal{U})$ is isomorphic to an integral version of the quantized universal enveloping algebra $\mathbf{U}(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$, $n \geq 2$.…
Cohomological induction gives an algebraic method for constructing representations of a real reductive Lie group $G$ from irreducible representations of reductive subgroups. Beilinson-Bernstein localization alternatively gives a geometric…
This paper lays the groundwork for the theory of categorical diagonalization. Given a diagonalizable operator, tools in linear algebra (such as Lagrange interpolation) allow one to construct a collection of idempotents which project to each…
We prove a Koszul duality theorem between the category of weight modules over the quantized Coulomb branch (as defined by Braverman, Finkelberg and Nakajima) attached to a group $G$ and representation $V$ and a category of $G$-equivariant…
Working over an algebraically closed field $k$ of any characteristic, we determine the matrix factorizations for the --- suitably graded --- triangle singularities $f=x^a+y^b+z^c$ of domestic type, that is, we assume that $(a,b,c)$ are…
We use category theory to propose a unified approach to the Schur-Weyl dualities involving the general linear Lie algebras, their polynomial extensions and associated quantum deformations. We define multiplicative sequences of algebras…
For a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we use the vertex tensor category theory of Huang and Lepowsky to identify the category of standard modules for the affine Lie algebra $\hat{\mathfrak{g}}$ at a fixed level…
We define and study sl\_2-categorifications on abelian categories. We show in particular that there is a self-derived (even homotopy) equivalence categorifying the adjoint action of the simple reflection. We construct categorifications for…
We give a new proof of the "super Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture" for the Lie super algebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{n|m}(\mathbb{C})$ as formulated originally by the first author. We also prove for the first time that any integral block of category O…
We prove a new symplectic analogue of Kashiwara's Equivalence from D-module theory. As a consequence, we establish a structure theory for module categories over deformation quantizations that mirrors, at a higher categorical level, the…
We give two alternate presentations of the Frobenius Heisenberg category, $\mathcal{Heis}_{F,k}$, defined by Savage, when the Frobenius algebra $F=F_1\oplus\dotsb\oplus F_n$ decomposes as a direct sum of Frobenius subalgebras. In these…
