Generalized Temperley-Lieb-Jones (TLJ) 2-categories associated to weighted bidirected graphs were introduced in unpublished work of Morrison and Walker. We introduce unitary modules for these generalized TLJ 2-categories as strong…
Given an arbitrary countably generated rigid C*-tensor category, we construct a fully-faithful bi-involutive strong monoidal functor onto a subcategory of finitely generated projective bimodules over a simple, exact, separable, unital…
Jones and Penneys showed that a finite depth subfactor planar algebra embeds in the bipartite graph planar algebra of its principal graph, via a Markov towers of algebras approach. We relate several equivalent perspectives on the notion of…
We associate to each Temperley-Lieb-Jones C*-tensor category $\mathcal{T}\!\mathcal{L}\mathcal{J}(\delta)$ with parameter $\delta$ in the discrete range $\{2\cos(\pi/(k+2))\,:\,k=1,2,\ldots\}\cup\{2\}$ a certain C*-algebra $\mathcal{B}$ of…
This paper addresses the problem of describing the structure of tensor C*-categories M with conjugates and irreducible tensor unit. No assumption on the existence of a braided symmetry or on amenability is made. Our assumptions are…
We classify the irreducible modules of a rational Lorentzian lattice vertex operator algebra (LLVOA) based on an even, self-dual Lorentzian lattice $\Lambda\subset\mathbb{R}^{m,n}$ of signature $(m,n)$. We show that the set of isomorphism…

Given a countably generated rigid C^*-tensor category C, we construct a planar algebra P whose category of projections Pro is equivalent to C. From P, we use methods of Guionnet-Jones-Shlyakhtenko-Walker to construct a rigid C^*-tensor…
We develop a representation theory for $\lambda$-lattices, arising as standard invariants of subfactors, and for rigid C*-tensor categories, including a definition of their universal C*-algebra. We use this to give a systematic account of…
To formalize calculations in linear algebra for the development of efficient algorithms and a framework suitable for functional programming languages and faster parallelized computations, we adopt an approach that treats elements of linear…
We develop the theory of Hopf bimodules for a finite rigid tensor category C. Then we use this theory to define a distinguished invertible object D of C and an isomorphism of tensor functors ?^{**} and D tensor ^{**}? tensor D^{-1}. This…
Using the tensor category theory developed by Lepowsky, Zhang and the second author, we construct a braided tensor category structure with a twist on a semisimple category of modules for an affine Lie algebra at an admissible level. We…
We study a 2-functor that assigns to a bimodule category over a finite k-linear tensor category a k-linear abelian category. This 2-functor can be regarded as a category-valued trace for 1-morphisms in the tricategory of finite tensor…
In this paper, we prove the category of finite length modules for the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-orbifold $M(1)^+$ of the Heisenberg vertex operator algebra whose simple composition factors are $M(1)^\pm$ or $M(1,\lambda)$ for $\lambda \in…
We define a notion of tensor product of bimodule categories and prove that with this product the 2-category of C-bimodule categories for fixed tensor C is a monoidal 2-category in the sense of Kapranov and Voevodsky. We then provide a…
The purpose of this paper is to study categorifications of tensor products of finite dimensional modules for the quantum group for sl(2). The main categorification is obtained using certain Harish-Chandra bimodules for the complex Lie…
Guided by consideration of problems in 2 and 3 dimensional lattice model computation, we are led to define a number of new categories, and functors between these categories and the partition category, culminating in the introduction of two…
We review the construction of braided tensor categories and modular tensor categories from representations of vertex operator algebras, which correspond to chiral algebras in physics. The extensive and general theory underlying this…
Given a not necessarily semisimple modular tensor category C, we use the corresponding 3d TFT defined in [arXiv:1912.02063] to explicitly describe a modular functor as a symmetric monoidal 2-functor from a 2-category of oriented bordisms to…
In our previous article [arXiv:1607.06041], we established an equivalence between pointed pivotal module tensor categories and anchored planar algebras. This article introduces the notion of unitarity for both module tensor categories and…
