We show that if two $m$-homogeneous algebras have Morita equivalent graded module categories, then they are quantum-symmetrically equivalent, that is, there is a monoidal equivalence between the categories of comodules for their associated…

Let $\hat{\frak g}$ be an untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebra. The quantum group $U_h(\hat{\frak g})$ (over $\mathbb{C}[[h]]$) is known to be a quasitriangular Hopf algebra: in particular, it has a universal $ R $--matrix, which yields an $…

Let $L$ be a quantum semigroupoid, more precisely a $\times_R$-bialgebra in the sense of Takeuchi. We describe a procedure replacing the algebra $R$ by any Morita equivalent, or in fact more generally any $\sqrt{\text{Morita}}$ equivalent…

We introduce the notion of a cylindrical bialgebra, which is a quasitriangular bialgebra $H$ endowed with a universal K-matrix, i.e., a universal solution of a generalized reflection equation, yielding an action of cylindrical braid groups…

Let $\theta$ be an involution of a complex semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and $(\mathrm{U}_v,\mathrm{U}^\imath_v)$ be the associated quantum symmetric pair at an odd root of unity $v$. In this paper, generalizing the approach of De…

We prove an analogue of Kostant's convexity theorem for split real and complex Kac-Moody groups associated to free and cofree root data. The result can be seen as a first step towards describing the multiplication map in a Kac-Moody group…

The present article is a continuation of QA/1303.4046, where we discussed the classification of quantum groups with quasi-classical limit $\mathfrak{g}$ and introduced a theory of Belavin-Drinfeld cohomology associated to any…

We construct a new class of finite-dimensional C^*-quantum groupoids at roots of unity q=e^{i\pi/\ell}, with limit the discrete dual of the classical SU(N) for large orders. The representation category of our groupoid turns out to be tensor…

We prove that every infinite sequence of skew-symmetric or symmetric matrices M_1, M_2, ... over a fixed finite field must have a pair M_i, M_j (i<j) such that M_i is isomorphic to a principal submatrix of the Schur complement of a…

In this paper we extend Cartier's deformation theorem of braided monoidal categories admitting an infinitesimal braiding to the non-symmetric case. The algebraic counterpart of these categories is the notion of a pre-Cartier…

The soft photon theorem in U(1) gauge theories with only massless charged particles has recently been shown to be the Ward identity of an infinite-dimensional asymptotic symmetry group. This symmetry group is comprised of gauge…

The $\imath$Hall algebra of a weighted projective line is defined to be the semi-derived Ringel-Hall algebra of the category of $1$-periodic complexes of coherent sheaves on the weighted projective line over a finite field. We show that…

In this paper we define a monoid called the equivariant Brauer semigroup for a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid E whose elements consist of Morita equivalence classes of E-dynamical systems. This construction generalizes both the…

Doplicher and Roberts originally posed the problem of extending their duality theory for compact groups and field reconstruction to theories admitting braided symmetry. In this paper, we address this problem for the Wess-Zumino-Witten model…

In the present article we discuss the classification of quantum groups whose quasi-classical limit is a given simple complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. This problem reduces to the classification of all Lie bialgebra structures on…

Let $U_\hbar\mathfrak{g}$ denote the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group associated to a complex semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. We apply a modification of the $R$-matrix construction for quantum groups to the evaluation of the universal…

The pair consisting of a quantum group and its corresponding coideal subalgebra, known as a quantum symmetric pair, was developed independently by M. Noumi and G. Letzter through different approaches. The purpose of this paper is threefold.…

We consider the quantum group $U_q(g)$ associated with a symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebra $g$. We display a presentation for $U_q(g)$ that we find attractive; we call this the equitable presentation. For $g=sl_2$ the equitable presentation…
