In this short note, we show that the Ginzburg-Vasserot map between the quantum affine algebra of type A_(n-1) and the equivariant K-theory group of the Steinberg Variety (of n-step flags in C^d) restricts and remains surjective at the level…

We construct 2-representations of quantum affine algebras from 2-representations of quantum Heisenberg algebras. The main tool in this construction are categorical vertex operators, which are certain complexes in a Heisenberg…

We consider the quantum vertex algebra associated with the trigonometric R-matrix in type A as defined by Etingof and Kazhdan. We show that its center is a commutative associative algebra and construct an algebraically independent family of…

Quantum affine reflection algebras are coideal subalgebras of quantum affine algebras that lead to trigonometric reflection matrices (solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation). In this paper we use the quantum affine reflection…

We construct central elements in a completion of the quantum affine algebra at the critical level c=-g from the universal R-matrix (g being the dual Coxeter number of the corresponding simple Lie algebra), using the method of Reshetikhin…

We introduce two subalgebras in the type A quantum affine algebra which are coideals with respect to the Hopf algebra structure. In the classical limit q -> 1 each subalgebra specializes to the enveloping algebra U(k), where k is a fixed…

A general notion of a quasi-finite algebra is introduced as an algebra graded by the set of all integers equipped with topologies on the homogeneous subspaces satisfying certain properties. An analogue of the regular bimodule is introduced…

We encapsulate the basic notions of the theory of vertex algebras into the construction of a comonad on an appropriate category of formal distributions. Vertex algebras are recovered as coalgebras over this comonad.

This is the first paper in a series to study vertex algebra-like objects arising from infinite-dimensional quantum groups (quantum affine algebras and Yangians). In this paper we lay the foundation for this study. For any vector space $W$,…

We prove a conjecture of Kuznetsov stating that the equivariant K-theory of affine Laumon spaces is the universal Verma module for the quantum affine algebra U_q(gl_n^). We do so by reinterpreting the action of the quantum toroidal algebra…

We introduce a notion of quasi-lisse vertex algebras, which generalizes admissible affine vertex algebras. We show that the normalized character of an ordinary module over a quasi-lisse vertex operator algebra has a modular invariance…

Let $A$ be a simple algebra over a field $F$. Under a mild cardinality assumption on $F$, we determine the greatest possible dimension for an $F$-affine subspace of $A$ that is included in the group of units $A^\times$, and we describe the…

In this paper, we show Kazhdan-Lusztig categories, that is, the categories of lower bounded generalized weight modules for certain affine vertex operator superalgebras that are locally finite modules of the underlying finite dimensional Lie…

We introduce a class of quantum integrable systems generalizing the Gaudin model. The corresponding algebras of quantum Hamiltonians are obtained as quotients of the center of the enveloping algebra of an affine Kac-Moody algebra at the…

We study quantum current algebra $\textrm{A}(\overline{R})$ associated with the rational $R$-matrix of $\mathfrak{gl}_N$ and we give explicit formulae for the elements of its center at the critical level. Due to Etingof--Kazhdan's…

We give a general criterion for conformal embeddings of vertex operator algebras associated to affine Lie algebras at arbitrary levels. Using that criterion, we construct new conformal embeddings at admissible rational and negative integer…

Let us consider a specialization of an untwisted quantum affine algebra of type $ADE$ at a nonzero complex number, which may or may not be a root of unity. The Grothendieck ring of its finite dimensional representations has two bases,…

We establish the equivalence between the refined topological vertex of Iqbal-Kozcaz-Vafa and a certain representation theory of the quantum algebra of type W_{1+infty} introduced by Miki. Our construction involves trivalent intertwining…
