For the associative algebra $A(\mathfrak g)$ of an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, we introduce twisted fiber bundles over arbitrary compact topological spaces. Fibers of such bundles are given by elements of algebraic…

Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and $V$ a finite-dimensional representation of $G$. Costello-Gaiotto studied a graded Lie algebra $\mathfrak{d}_{\mathfrak{g}, V}$ and the associated affine Kac-Moody…

We consider a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $G$, and twist by a more general locally compact Hausdorff abelian group $\Gamma$ rather than the complex unit circle $\mathbb{T}$. We investigate the construction of $C^*$-algebras in…

Let G be a connected complex simple Lie group with maximal compact subgroup U. Let g be the Lie algebra of G, and X = G/U be the associated Riemannian globally symmetric space of type IV. We have constructed three types of arithmetic…

In this paper we analyze the structure of some subalgebras of quantized enveloping algebras corresponding to unipotent and solvable subgroups of a simple Lie group G. These algebras have the non--commutative structure of iterated algebras…

In this paper we develop a formalism for working with twisted realizations of vertex and conformal algebras. As an example, we study realizations of conformal algebras by twisted formal power series. The main application of our technique is…

Based on Nijenhuis-Richardson bracket and bidegree on the cohomology complex for a Lie conformal algebra, we develop a twisting theory of Lie conformal algebras. By using derived bracket constructions, we construct $L_\infty$-algebras from…

In this paper we consider the category of F^\sigma of finite-dimensional representations of a twisted loop algebra corresponding to a finite-dimensional Lie algebra with non-trivial diagram automorphism. Although F^\sigma is not semisimple,…

We study surface groups $\Gamma$ in $SO(4,1)$, which is the group of Mobius tranformations of $S^3$, and also the group of isometries of $\mathbb{H}^4$. We consider such $\Gamma$ so that its limit set $\Lambda_\Gamma$ is a quasi-circle in…

Let $G$ be a connected complex semisimple Lie group, $\Gamma$ be a cocompact, irreducible and torsionless lattice in $G$ and $K$ be a maximal compact subgroup of $G$. Assume $\Gamma$ acts by left multiplication and $K$ acts by right…

We continue our study of the semi-classical (large central charge) expansion of the toroidal one-point conformal block in the context of the 2d/4d correspondence. We demonstrate that the Seiberg-Witten curve and (epsilon1-deformed)…

We take first steps toward a theory of ``conformal twists'' for superconformal field theories in dimension 3 to 6, extending the well-known analysis of twists for supersymmetric theories. A conformal twist is a square-zero odd element in…

Let $({\sf G},\alpha, \omega,\mathfrak B)$ be a measurable twisted action of the locally compact group ${\sf G}$ on a Banach $^*$-algebra $\mathfrak B$ and $\mathfrak A$ a differential Banach $^*$-subalgebra of $\mathfrak B$, which is…

The second author showed how Katsura's construction of the C*-algebra of a topological graph E may be twisted by a Hermitian line bundle L over the edge space E. The correspondence defining the algebra is obtained as the completion of the…

We show how the rigid conformal supersymmetries associated with a certain class of pseudo-Riemannian spin manifolds define a Lie superalgebra. The even part of this superalgebra contains conformal isometries and constant R-symmetries. The…

These notes survey the theory of (twisted) conformal blocks from an algebro-geometric perspective and have two main goals. The first one is to summarize the construction of conformal blocks from vertex operator algebras, and to describe…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be an untwisted affine Lie algebra with associated Weyl group $W_a$. To any level 0 weight $\gamma$ we associate a weighted graph $\Gamma_\gamma$ that encodes the orbit of $\gamma$ under the action $W_a$. We show that the…

We prove part of a higher rank analogue of the Mazur-Gouvea Conjecture. More precisely, let $\tilde{\bf G}$ be a connected, reductive ${\Bbb Q}$-split group and let $\Gamma$ be an arithmetic subgroup of $\tilde{\bf G}$. We show that the…

A new highly symmetrical model of the compact Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}^c_2$ is provided as a twisted ring group for the group $\mathbb{Z}_2^3$ and the ring $\mathbb{R}\oplus\mathbb{R}$. The model is self-contained and can be used without…

Let $M_C(G)$ be the moduli space of semistable principal $G-$bundles over a smooth curve $C$. We show that a flat degeneration of this space $M_{C_{\Gamma}}(G)$ associated to a singular stable curve $C_{\Gamma}$ contains the free group…
