A homology cylinder over a compact manifold is a homology cobordism between two copies of the manifold together with a boundary parametrization. We study abelian quotients of the homology cobordism group of homology cylinders. For homology…
We study torsion in homology of the random $d$-complex $Y \sim Y_d(n,p)$ experimentally. Our experiments suggest that there is almost always a moment in the process where there is an enormous burst of torsion in homology $H_{d-1}(Y)$. This…
All solutions of constant classical Yang-Baxter equation (CYBE) in Lie algebra $L$ with dim $L \le 3$ are obtained and the sufficient and necessary conditions which $(L, \hbox {[ ]}, \Delta_r, r)$ is a coboundary (or triangular) Lie…
We study a class $\mathfrak{M}$ of cyclically presented groups that includes both finite and infinite groups and is defined by a certain combinatorial condition on the defining relations. This class includes many finite metacyclic…
The first order formalism for 3D Yang-Mills theory is considered and two different formulations are introduced, in which the gauge theory appears to be a deformation of the topological BF theory. We perform the quantization and the…
A large class of integrable deformations of the Principal Chiral Model, known as the Yang-Baxter deformations, are governed by skew-symmetric R-matrices solving the (modified) classical Yang-Baxter equation. We carry out a systematic…
Quantum doubles of finite group algebras form a class of quasi-triangular Hopf algebras which algebraically solve the Yang--Baxter equation. Each representation of the quantum double then gives a matrix solution of the Yang--Baxter…
Modified $r$-matrices are solutions of the modified classical Yang-Baxter equation, introduced by Semenov-Tian-Shansky, and play important roles in mathematical physics. In this paper, first we introduce a cohomology theory for modified…
In this paper, we study the homology of the cyclic coloring complex of three different types of $k$-uniform hypergraphs. For the case of a complete $k$-uniform hypergraph, we show that the dimension of the $(n-k-1)^{st}$ homology group is…
We give simple homological conditions for a rational homology 3-sphere Y to have infinite order in the rational homology cobordism group, and for a collection of rational homology spheres to be linearly independent. These translate…
We present a complete characterization of all indecomposable non-degenerate, not necessarily involutive, solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation of multipermutation level~2. We show that every such solution is a homomorphic image of a…
The paper establishes new relationship between cohomology, extensions and automorphisms of quandles. We derive a four term exact sequence relating quandle 1-cocycles, second quandle cohomology and certain group of automorphisms of an…
We prove that the group-homological version of the generalized Goncharov invariant of finite-volume locally rank one symmetric spaces determines their generalized Neumann-Yang invariant, which is defined using ideal fundamental cycles.
In this paper we introduce a common framework for describing the topological part of the Baum-Connes conjecture for a wide class of groups. We compute the Bredon homology for groups with aspherical presentation, one-relator quotients of…
With every family of finitely many subsets of a finite-dimensional vector space over the Galois-field with two elements we associate a cyclic transversal polytope. It turns out that those polytopes generalize several well-known polytopes…
The Yang-Baxter equation admits two classes of elliptic solutions, the vertex type and the face type. On the basis of these solutions, two types of elliptic quantum groups have been introduced (Foda et al., Felder). Fronsdal made a…
It is known that Yang-Baxter sigma models provide a systematic way to study integrable deformations of both principal chiral models and symmetric coset sigma models. In the original proposal and its subsequent development, the deformations…
For each subcomplex of the standard CW-structure on any torus, we compute the homology of a certain infinite cyclic regular covering space. In all cases when the homology is finitely generated, we also compute the cohomology ring. For…
Set-theoretic solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation form a meeting-ground of mathematical physics, algebra and combinatorics. Such a solution consists of a set $X$ and a function r:X x X --> X x X which satisfies the braid relation. We…
In this paper, we initiate the study of the interplay between $k$-graphs and the Yang-Baxter equation. For this, we provide two very different perspectives. One one hand, we show that the set of all set-theoretic solutions of the…
