Given a quantized analytic cycle $(X, \sigma)$ in $Y$, we give a categorical Lie-theoretic interpretation of a geometric condition, discovered by Shilin Yu, that involves the second formal neighbourhood of $X$ in $Y$. If this condition…
We study the dynamics of a large class of N=1 quiver theories, geometrically realized by type IIB D-brane probes wrapping cycles of local Calabi-Yau threefolds. These include N=2 (affine) A-D-E quiver theories deformed by superpotential…
Bi-spinor and G-structure methods are used to classify the possible consistent truncations of type II supergravity to $d=6$ Einstein-Maxwell (gauged) supergravity, and its consistent sub-sectors. In the absence of R-symmetry gauging and a…
String compactifications with T-duality twists are revisited and the gauge algebra of the dimensionally reduced theories calculated. These reductions can be viewed as string theory on T-fold backgrounds, and can be formulated in a `doubled…
We present the details of the recently constructed $E_{6(6)}$ covariant extension of 11-dimensional supergravity. This theory requires a 5+27 dimensional spacetime in which the `internal' coordinates transform in the $\bar{\bf 27}$ of…
We study the exceptional U duality group $E_d$ of M-theory compactified on a d-torus and its representations using Matrix theory. We exhibit the $E_d$ structure and show that p-branes wrapped or unwrapped around the longitudinal direction…
A classical $E_{d(d)}$-invariant Hamiltonian formulation of world-volume theories of half-BPS p-branes in type IIb and eleven-dimensional supergravity is proposed, extending known results to $d \leq 6$. It consists of a Hamiltonian,…
We define a generalized form of $L_\infty$-algebras called $E_2L_\infty$-algebras. As we show, these provide the natural algebraic framework for generalized geometry and the symmetries of double field theory as well as the gauge algebras…
Universal Drinfeld twists are inner automorphisms which relate the coproduct of a quantum enveloping algebra to the coproduct of the undeformed enveloping algebra. Even though they govern the deformation theory of classical symmetries and…
Starting from the classification of real Manin triples done in a previous paper we look for those that are isomorphic as 6-dimensional Lie algebras with the ad-invariant form used for construction of the Manin triples. We use several…
In this thesis we study algebraic structures in M-theory, in particular the exceptional Lie algebras arising in dimensional reduction of its low energy limit, eleven-dimensional supergravity. We focus on e8 and its infinite-dimensional…
We show that the so called $\lambda$ deformed $\sigma$-model as well as the $\eta$ deformed one belong to a class of the ${\cal E}$-models introduced in the context of the Poisson-Lie-T-duality. The $\lambda$ and $\eta$ theories differ…
Let $\mathcal{X} \subset \mathbb{P}_k^d$ be Drinfeld's halfspace over a finite field $k$ and let $\mathcal{E}$ be a homogeneous vector bundle on $\mathbb{P}_k^d$. The paper deals with two different descriptions of the space of global…
We perform a bordism computation to show that the $E_{7(7)}(\mathbb{R})$ U-duality symmetry of 4d $\mathcal N = 8$ supergravity could have an anomaly invisible to perturbative methods; then we show that this anomaly is trivial. We compute…
The Drinfeld double structure underlying the Cartan series An, Bn, Cn, Dn of simple Lie algebras is discussed. This structure is determined by two disjoint solvable subalgebras matched by a pairing. For the two nilpotent positive and…
Drinfeld orbifold algebras are a type of deformation of skew group algebras generalizing graded Hecke algebras of interest in representation theory, algebraic combinatorics, and noncommutative geometry. In this article, we classify all…
In this paper, we first review the definition of the novel quantum affine algebra \(U_{\textbf{q}}(\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_2)\) of type \(A_{1}^{(1)}\) given in \cite{FHZ, HZhuang}. Furthermore, by introducing \(\Omega\)-invariant…
The reciprocality means a duality in Kirchberg algebras between K-theory groups and strong extension groups. In the paper, we will find a certain class of unital simple Exel--Laca algebras for which the reciprocal duals are simple…
In this article, we deal with properties of the reduced Drinfeld double of the composition subalgebra of the Hall algebra of the category of coherent sheaves on a weighted projective line. This study is motivated by applications in the…
In recent years, it has been widely argued that the duality transformations of string and M-theory naturally imply the existence of so-called `exotic branes'---low codimension objects with highly non-perturbative tensions, scaling as…
