This paper is a short account of the construction of a new class of the infinite-dimensional representations of the quantum groups. The examples include finite-dimensional quantum groups $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$, Yangian $Y(\mathfrak{g})$ and…
Given a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we can represent invariants of tensor products of fundamental representations of the quantum enveloping algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ using particular directed graphs called webs. In particular…
Webs are sets of Feynman diagrams that contribute to the exponents of scattering amplitudes, in the kinematic limit in which emitted radiation is soft. As such, they have a number of phenomenological and formal applications, and offer…
We review briefly a stream of ideas concerning the role of quantum groups as hidden symmetries in conformal field theories, paying particular attention to the field theoretical representations of quantum groups based on Coulomb gas methods.…
In this paper, we extend past work done on the application of the mathematics of category theory to quantum information science. Specifically, we present a realization of a dagger-compact category that can model finite-dimensional quantum…
We provide an alternative approach to the Faddeev-Reshetikhin-Takhtajan presentation of the quantum group U_q(g), with L-operators as generators and relations ruled by an R-matrix. We look at U_q(g) as being generated by the quantum Borel…
In the present paper we propose a new approach to quantum fields in terms of category algebras and states on categories. We define quantum fields and their states as category algebras and states on causal categories with partial involution…
It is well-known that any compact Lie group appears as closed subgroup of a unitary group, $G\subset U_N$. The unitary group $U_N$ has a free analogue $U_N^+$, and the study of the closed quantum subgroups $G\subset U_N^+$ is a problem of…
We define the notion of a minimal affinization of an irreducible representation of $U_q(g)$. We prove that minimal affinizations exist and establish their uniqueness in the rank 2 case.
We classify rank one 2-representations of SL2, GL2 and SO3 web categories. The classification is inspired by similar results about quantum groups, given by reducing the problem to the classification of bilinear and trilinear forms, and is…
By considering `coloured' braid group representation we have obtained a quantum group, which reduces to the standard $GL_q(2)$ and $GL_{p,q}(2)$ cases at some particular limits of the `colour' parameters. In spite of quite complicated…
For the quantum algebra U_q(gl(n+1)) in its reduction on the subalgebra U_q(gl(n)) an explicit description of a Mickelsson-Zhelobenko reduction Z-algebra Z_q(gl(n+1),gl(n)) is given in terms of the generators and their defining relations.…
The simplicity of the Kac modules for the quantum superalgebra U_q(gl(m,n)) is studied, and the relation between the representation of U_q(gl(m,n)) and that of U_q(g_{\0}) is investigated.
The purpose of this paper is to give a minimalistic and self-contained presentation of a Lorentz Invariant phenomenological model of Quantum Gravity.
Field-theoretic models for fields taking values in quantum groups are investigated. First we consider $SU_q(2)$ $\sigma$ model ($q$ real) expressed in terms of basic notions of noncommutative differential geometry. We discuss the case in…
In this note we give explicit isomorphisms of 2-categories between various versions of the categorified quantum group associated to a simply-laced Kac-Moody algebra. These isomorphisms are convenient when working with the categorified…
We start with the observation that the quantum group SL_q(2), described in terms of its algebra of functions has a quantum subgroup, which is just a usual Cartan group. Based on this observation we develop a general method of constructing…
We classify the cosemisimple Hopf algebras whose corepresentation semi-ring is isomorphic to that of GL(2). This leads us to define a new family of Hopf algebras which generalize the quantum similitude group of a non-degenerate bilinear…
We show that, under suitable hypotheses, the coned-off spaces associated to $C(9)$ cubical small-cancellation presentations are aspherical, and use this to provide classifying spaces, or classifying spaces for proper actions, for their…
This thesis provides a partial answer to a question posed by Greg Kuperberg in q-alg/9712003 and again by Justin Roberts as problem 12.18 in "Problems on invariants of knots and 3-manifolds", math.GT/0406190, essentially: "Can one describe…
