We revisit the possibility of constructing non-invertible topological defects for the axial symmetry of massless QED, despite its ABJ anomaly. Dressing the defects with a topological quantum field theory with mixed $U(1)$ and…

We consider coupling an ordinary quantum field theory with an infinite number of degrees of freedom to a topological field theory. On R^d the new theory differs from the original one by the spectrum of operators. Sometimes the local…

In this paper we establish Koszul duality type results in the setting of chain complexes in exact categories. In particular we prove generalisations of Vallette's cooperadic Koszul duality theorem, and operadic Koszul duality along the…

We show that the Koszul functor of a homologically smooth graded gentle algebra can be realized as the half rotation in a geometric model. As a byproduct, we prove an intersection-dim formula involving the Koszul functor.

We establish a categorical version of Vogan duality for quasi-split real groups. This proves a conjecture of Soergel in the quasi-split case.

We define Hochschild cohomology of the second kind for differential graded (dg) or curved algebras as a derived functor in the twisted derived category, and show that it is invariant under suitable Morita equivalences of the second kind. A…

The q-deformation of the Lie algebras underlying the standard field theories leads to a pair of dual algebras. We describe a simple choice of possible field theories based on these derived algebras. One of these approximates the standard…

We construct an equivalence of $E_{2}$ algebras between two models for the Thom spectrum of the free loop space that are related by derived Koszul duality. To do this, we describe the functoriality and invariance properties of topological…

The problem of quantum equivalence between non-linear sigma models related by Abelian or non-Abelian T-duality is studied in perturbation theory. Using the anomalous Ward identity for Weyl symmetry we derive a relation between the Weyl…

Generalizing a concept of Lipshitz, Ozsv\'ath and Thurs-ton from Bordered Floer homology, we define $D$-structures on algebras of unital operads, which can also be interpreted as a generalization of a seemingly unrelated concept of Getzler…

We prove an analogue of Koszul duality for category $\mathcal{O}$ of a reductive group $G$ in positive characteristic $\ell$ larger than 1 plus the number of roots of $G$. However there are no Koszul rings, and we do not prove an analogue…

We study duality in $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric QCD in the non-Abelian Coulomb phase, order-by-order in scheme-independent series expansions. Using exact results, we show how the dimensions of various fundamental and composite chiral…

The modern way to understand symmetries of a quantum field theory is via its topological defects in various dimensions. In this contribution to the proceedings we focus on line defects in 2d QFT and we point out that topological defects…

In this article we present a self-contained account of two important results in complex supergeometry: (1) Koszul's Splitting theorem and (2) Donagi and Witten's decomposition of the super Atiyah class. These results are related in the same…

We are concerned with relating derived categories of all modules of two dual Koszul algebras defined by a locally bounded quiver. We first generalize the well known Acyclic Assembly Lemma and formalize an old method of extending a functor…

We examine the challenge of viewing all the fields in supergravity as arising from a Kaluza-Klein like dimensional reduction of some higher-dimensional theory. This gives rise to what is known as exceptional field theory or double field…
