In this work we investigate several important aspects of the structure theory of the recently introduced quasi-Hopf superalgebras (QHSAs), which play a fundamental role in knot theory and integrable systems. In particular we introduce the…
This report discusses two new ideas for using perturbation methods to solve the time-independent Schr\"odinger equation. The first concept begins with rewriting the perturbation equations in a form that is closely related to matrix…
Given a Hopf algebra $A$ graded by a discrete group together with an action of the same group preserving the grading, we define a new Hopf algebra, which we call the graded twisting of $A$. If the action is adjoint, this new Hopf algebra is…
We give a construction of cyclic cocycles on convolution algebras twisted by gerbes over discrete translation groupoids. For proper \'etale groupoids, Tu and Xu provide a map between the periodic cyclic cohomology of a gerbe-twisted…
Drinfeld twists, and the twists of Giaquinto and Zhang, allow for algebras and their modules to be deformed by a cocycle. We prove general results about cocycle twists of algebra factorisations and induced representations and apply them to…
Let g be a complex simple Lie algebra and h a Cartan subalgebra. The Clifford algebra C(g) of g admits a Harish-Chandra map. Kostant conjectured (as communicated to Bazlov in about 1997) that the value of this map on a (suitably chosen)…
This work concerns stability and instability of Einstein warped products with an Einsteinian fiber of codimension 1. We study the cases where the scalar curvature of the warped product and of the fiber are either both positive or both…
We build resolutions for general twisted tensor products of algebras. These bimodule and module resolutions unify many constructions in the literature and are suitable for computing Hochschild (co)homology and more generally Ext and Tor for…
Let $X$ be a smooth complex algebraic variety and let $\operatorname{Coh} (X)$ denote its Abelian category of coherent sheaves. By the work of W. Lowen and M. Van den Bergh, it is known that the deformation theory of $\operatorname{Coh}…
Given a cocycle on a topological quiver by a locally compact group, the author constructs a skew product topological quiver, and determines conditions under which a topological quiver can be identified as a skew product. We investigate the…
We construct an electrical-network version of the twist map for the positive Grassmannian, and use it to solve the inverse problem of recovering conductances from the response matrix. Each conductance is expressed as a biratio of Pfaffians…
Let $\Sigma$ be a fan inside the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^n$, and $\mathcal{E}:\mathbb{Z}^n \rightarrow \operatorname{Pic}{S}$ be a map of abelian groups. We introduce the notion of a principal toric fibration $\mathcal{X}_{\Sigma, \mathcal{E}}$…
This paper establishes exact expressions for the Drazin inverse of the modified tensor $\mathcal A-\mathcal C*_N\mathcal D^D*_N\mathcal B$ via the Einstein product, formulated using the Drazin inverse of $\mathcal A$ and the generalized…
We discuss twists on Frobenius algebras in the context of link homology. In his paper in 2006, Khovanov asserted that a twist of a Frobenius algebra yields an isomorphic chain complex on each link diagram. Although the result has been…
We explore the relations of twisted K-theory to twisted and untwisted classical cohomology. We construct an Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence, and describe its differentials rationally as Massey products. We define the twisted Chern…
We apply the techniques of totally twisted Khovanov homology to the constructions by M. Asaeda, J. Przytycki, and A. Sikora of Khovanov type homologies for links and tangles in I-bundles over (orientable) surfaces. As a result we describe…
The global formality of Dolgushev depends on the choice of a torsion-free covariant derivative. We prove that the globalized formalities with respect to two different covariant derivatives are homotopic. More explicitly, we derive the…
Bazlov generalized the construction of Fomin-Kirillov algebras to arbitrary finite Coxeter groups. They are quadratic approximations of Nichols algebras associated with the conjugacy class of reflections and a (rack) 2-cocycle q^+ with…
We prove a twisting theorem for nodal classes in permutation-equivariant quantum $K$-theory, and combine it with existing theorems of Givental to obtain a twisting result for general characteristic classes of the virtual tangent bundle.…
We give a geometric method for determining the cohomology groups and the product structure of a polyhedral product, under suitable freeness conditions or with coefficients taken in a field. This is done by considering first a special class…
