We propose that the symmetry category associated to a 2D quantum field theory with 0-form $G$-symmetry with 't Hooft anomaly $k\in H^4(BG,\mathbb{Z})$ for a large class of Lie groups $G$ is the category of twisted measurable fields of…

We introduce the notion of the weak tracial approximate representability of a discrete group action on a unital $C^*$-algebra which could have no projections like the Jiang-Su algebra $\mathcal{Z}$. Then we show a duality between the weak…

For a semisimple complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, the BGG category $\mathcal{O}$ is of particular interest in representation theory. It is known that Irving's shuffling functors $\mathrm{Sh}_{w}$, indexed by elements $w\in W$ of the Weyl…

We present a construction of (faithful) group actions via derived equivalences in the general categorical setting of algebraic 2-Calabi--Yau triangulated categories. To each algebraic 2-Calabi--Yau category $\mathscr{C}$ satisfying standard…

For a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ of rank $n$, let $\overline{U}_\zeta(\mathfrak{g})$ be the restricted quantum group of $\mathfrak{g}$ at a primitive fourth root of unity. This quantum group admits a natural Borel-induced…

We study categories whose objects are the braid representations, i.e. strict monoidal functors $F\colon B\rightarrow Mat$ from the braid category $B$ to the category of matrices $Mat$. Braid representations are equivalent to solutions to…

Fix a semisimple Lie algebra g. Gaudin algebras are commutative algebras acting on tensor product multiplicity spaces for g-representations. These algebras depend on a parameter which is a point in the Deligne-Mumford moduli space of marked…

We study the classification of group actions on C*-algebras up to equivariant KK-equivalence. We show that any group action is equivariantly KK-equivalent to an action on a simple, purely infinite C*-algebra. We show that a conjecture of…

Let $C$ be a simply laced generalized Cartan matrix. Given an element $b$ of the generalized braid semigroup related to $C$, we construct a collection of mutation-equivalent quivers with potentials. A quiver with potential in such a…

Let $\Gamma$ be a compact tropical curve (or metric graph) of genus $g$. Using the theory of tropical theta functions, Mikhalkin and Zharkov proved that there is a canonical effective representative (called a break divisor) for each linear…
