Using crossed homomorphisms, we show that the category of weak representations (resp. admissible representations) of Lie-Rinehart algebras (resp. Leibniz pairs) is a left module category over the monoidal category of representations of Lie…

The operational Chow cohomology classes of a complete toric variety are identified with certain functions, called Minkowski weights, on the corresponding fan. The natural product of Chow cohomology classes makes the Minkowski weights into a…

In this paper we explore relationship between representations of a Jordan algebra $\J$ and the Lie algebra $\g$ obtained from $\J$ by the Tits-Kantor-Koecher construction. More precisely, we construct two adjoint functors $Lie :\JJ\to \ggm$…

We introduce a bivariant version of the Cuntz semigroup as equivalence classes of order zero maps generalizing the ordinary Cuntz semigroup. The theory has many properties formally analogous to KK-theory including a composition product. We…

We show that the complete bornological convolution algebras of Lie groupoids and convolution bimodules of groupoid bibundles define a monoidal functor from the 2-category of differentiable stacks to the Morita 2-category of complete…

It is well known that the opposite F^{op} of the category F of finitely generated free groups is a Lawvere theory for groups, and also that F is a free symmetric monoidal category on a commutative Hopf monoid, or, in other words, a PROP for…

We prove a finite torsion-free associative conformal algebra to have a finite faithful conformal representation. As a corollary, it is shown that one may join a conformal unit to such an algebra. Some examples are stated to demonstrate that…

We construct level one dominant representations of the affine Kac-Moody algebra $\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}_k$ on the equivariant cohomology groups of moduli spaces of rank one framed sheaves on the orbifold compactification of the minimal…

We study tensor structures on (Rep G)-module categories defined by actions of a compact quantum group G on unital C*-algebras. We show that having a tensor product which defines the module structure is equivalent to enriching the action of…

We first give a short intrinsic, diagrammatic proof of the First Fundamental Theorem of invariant theory (FFT) for the special orthogonal group $\text{SO}_m(\mathbb{C})$, given the FFT for $\text{O}_m(\mathbb{C})$. We then define, by means…

This article, which is substantially motivated by the previous joint work with J. McKay [8], establishes the analytic analogues of the relations we found free probability has with Witt vectors. Therefore, we first present a novel analytic…

In this article we extend evaluations of the Kauffman bracket on regular isotopy classes of knots and links to a variety of functors defined on the category of framed tangles. We show that many such functors exist, and that they correspond…

In this paper, we construct a functorial quantization of (co)Poisson Hopf algebras within a broad categorical framework. We further introduce categories naturally associated with (co)Poisson Hopf algebras, namely Drinfeld-Yetter modules.…

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 construct an abelian category C and exact functors in C which on the Grothendieck group descend to the action of a simply-laced quantum group in its adjoint representation. The braid group action in the adjoint representation lifts to an…

A bicommutant category is a higher categorical analog of a von Neumann algebra. We study the bicommutant categories which arise as the commutant $\mathcal{C}'$ of a fully faithful representation $\mathcal{C}\to\operatorname{Bim}(R)$ of a…

The main objects of study in this paper are those functionals that are analytic in the sense that they annihilate the non-commutative disc algebra. In the classical univariate case, a theorem of F. and M. Riesz implies that such functionals…

Let $G$ be a finite group. There is a standard theorem on the classification of $G$-equivariant finite dimensional simple commutative, associative, and Lie algebras (i.e., simple algebras of these types in the category of representations of…

In this article, we will show that the category of biset functors can be regarded as a reflective monoidal subcategory of the category of Mackey functors on the 2-category of finite groupoids. This reflective subcategory is equivalent to…

A functional analog of the Klain-Schneider theorem for vector-valued valuations on convex functions is established, providing a classification of continuous, translation covariant, simple valuations. Under additional rotation equivariance…
