The main result of this paper utilizes the representation graph of a group $G$, $R(V,G)$, and gives a general construction of a diagrammatic category $\mathbf{Dgrams}_{R(V,G)}$. The proof of the main theorem shows that, given explicit…

This paper is devoted to the representation theory of quantum coordinate algebra $\mathbb{C}_q[G]$, for a semisimple Lie group $G$ and a generic parameter $q$. By inspecting the actions of normal elements on tensor modules, we generalize a…

Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra satisfying the following conditions: (i) The homogeneous subspaces of V of weights less than 0 are 0, the homogeneous subspace of V of weight 0 is spanned by the vacuum and V' is isomorphic to V as…

We show that given a rigid C*-tensor category, there is an equivalence of categories between normalized irreducible Q-systems, also known as connected unitary Frobenius algebra objects, and compact connected W*-algebra objects. Although…

In this work, we study a family of vector bundles on the moduli space of curves constructed from representations of $\text{Vir}_{2k+1,2}$, a family of vertex operator algebras derived from the Virasoro Lie algebra. Using the relationship…

Doplicher and Roberts originally posed the problem of extending their duality theory for compact groups and field reconstruction to theories admitting braided symmetry. In this paper, we address this problem for the Wess-Zumino-Witten model…

In this paper, we study $G$-equivariant tensor categories for a finite group $G$. These categories were introduced by Turaev under the name of $G$-crossed categories; the motivating example of such a category is the category of twisted…

In previous work the authors introduced a new class of modular quasi-Hopf algebras $D^{\omega}(G, A)$ associated to a finite group $G$, a central subgroup $A$, and a $3$-cocycle $\omega\in Z^3(G, C^x)$. In the present paper we propose a…

Let $Q$ be a non-degenerated even lattice, let $V_Q$ be the lattice vertex algebra associated to $Q$, and let $V_Q^\eta$ be a quantum lattice vertex algebra. In this paper, we prove the equivalence between the category $V_Q$-modules and the…

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…

For any $\mathbf{a}=(a_1,\dots,a_n)\in \mathbb{C}^n$, we introduce a Whittaker category $\mathcal{H}_{\mathbf{a}}$ whose objects are $\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1}$-modules $M$ such that $e_{0i}-a_i$ acts locally nilpotently on $M$ for all $i \in…

Whittaker modules have been well studied in the setting of complex semisimple Lie algebras. Their definition can easily be generalized to certain other Lie algebras with triangular decomposition, including the Virasoro algebra. We define…

We prove that the categories of weight modules over the simple $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ and $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal vertex operator algebras at fractional admissible levels and central charges are rigid (and hence the categories of weight…

For an arbitrary simple Lie algebra $\g$ and an arbitrary root of unity $q,$ the closed subsets of the Weyl alcove of the quantum group $U_q(\g)$ are classified. Here a closed subset is a set such that if any two weights in the Weyl alcove…

In this paper, we first obtain a general result on sufficient conditions for tensor product modules to be simple over an arbitrary Lie algebra. We classify simple modules with a nice property over the infinite-dimensional Heisenberg algebra…

For a group G, the notion of a ribbon G-category was introduced by the second author in a previous work with a view towards constructing 3-dimensional homotopy quantum field theories (HQFT's) with target K(G,1). We discuss here how to…

In a previous paper we constructed rank and support variety theories for "quantum elementary abelian groups," that is, tensor products of copies of Taft algebras. In this paper we use both variety theories to classify the thick tensor…

We extend previous work by constructing a universal abelian tensor category ${\bf T}_t$ generated by two objects $X,Y$ equipped with finite filtrations $0\subsetneq X_0\subsetneq ... X_{t+1}\subsetneq X$ and $0\subsetneq Y_0\subsetneq ...…

We classify the simple quantum group modules with finite dimensional weight spaces when the quantum parameter $q$ is transcendental and the Lie algebra is not of type $G_2$. This is part $2$ of the story. The first part being Irreducible…

This paper consists of two parts: (1) Using a Z[1/2]-form of Virasoro vertex operator algebra L(1/2,0) with central charge 1/2, we obtain a modular vertex operator algebra over any field F of finite characteristic different from 2. We…
