We study how exotic branes, i.e. branes whose tensions are proportional to $g_s^{-\alpha}$, with $\alpha>2$, are realised in Exceptional Field Theory (EFT). The generalised torsion of the Weitzenb\"ock connection of the…
These notes are based on lectures given at the XIX Modave School on Mathematical Physics and present an introduction to Exceptional Field Theory. We cover the standard Kaluza-Klein reductions on tori, with applications to supergravity. We…
Umbral moonshine describes an unexpected relation between 23 finite groups arising from lattice symmetries and special mock modular forms. It includes the Mathieu moonshine as a special case and can itself be viewed as an example of the…
This is a review of exceptional field theory: a generalisation of Kaluza-Klein theory that unifies the metric and $p$-form gauge field degrees of freedom of supergravity into a generalised or extended geometry, whose additional coordinates…
In the paper "On some unsolved problems in quantum group theory", V.Drinfeld formulated the problem of the existence of a universal quantization for Lie bialgebras. When the paper "Tensor structures arising from affine Lie algebras, III",…
We here both unify and generalize nonassociative structures on typed binary trees, that is to say plane binary trees which edges are decorated by elements of a set $\Omega$. We prove that we obtain such a structure, called an…
An R-algebra A is called E(R)-algebra if the canonical homomorphism from A to the endomorphism algebra End_RA of the R-module {}_R A, taking any a in A to the right multiplication a_r in End_R A by a is an isomorphism of algebras. In this…
The reduction of the E8 gauge theory to ten dimensions leads to a loop group, which in relation to twisted K-theory has a Dixmier-Douady class identified with the Neveu-Schwarz H-field. We give an interpretation of the degree two part of…
Defining the real Lie superalgebra as real $Z_2$--graded vector space we classify real Manin supertriples and Drinfel'd superdoubles of superdimensions (2,2), (4,2) and (2,4). They can be used for construction of sigma-models on supergroups…
We give a construction of Drienfeld's quantum double for a nonstandard deformation of Borel subalgebra of $sl(2)$. We construct explicitly some simple representations of this quantum algebra and from the universal R-matrix we obtain the…
Both brane tilings and exceptional collections are useful tools for describing the low energy gauge theory on a stack of D3-branes probing a Calabi-Yau singularity. We provide a dictionary that translates between these two heretofore…
Quantum Drinfeld orbifold algebras are the generalizations of Drinfeld orbifold algebras, which are obtained by replacing polynomial rings by quantum polynomial rings. Shepler and Witherspoon in their paper, give necessary and sufficient…
A notion of Drinfeld polynomials is introduced for modules of two-parameter quantum affine algebras. Finite dimensional representations are then characterized by sets of $l$-tuples of pairs of Drinfeld polynomials with certain conditions.
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…
Following the approach of Ding and Frenkel [Comm. Math. Phys. 156 (1993), 277-300] for type $A$, we showed in our previous work [J. Math. Phys. 61 (2020), 031701, 41 pages] that the Gauss decomposition of the generator matrix in the…
We give an infinite dimensional description of the differential K-theory of a manifold $M$. The generators are triples $[H, A, \omega]$ where $H$ is a ${\bf Z}_2$-graded Hilbert bundle on $M$, $A$ is a superconnection on $H$ and $\omega$ is…
We examine classes of quantum algebras emerging from involutive, non-degenerate set-theoretic solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation and their q-analogues. After providing some universal results on quasi-bialgebras and admissible Drinfeld…
A brief description of the supersymmetric and duality covariant approach to supergravity is presented. The formalism is based on exceptional geometric structures and turns the hidden U-duality group into a manifest gauge symmetry. Tensor…
We give a new presentation of the Drinfeld double of the elliptic Hall algebra introduced in a previous work with I. Burban. This presentation is similar in spirit to Drinfeld's `new realization' of quantum affine algebras. This answers, in…
Exponential families are a particular class of statistical manifolds which are particularly important in statistical inference, and which appear very frequently in statistics. For example, the set of normal distributions, with mean {\mu}…
