The Yang-Baxter equation (YBE) and the reflection equation (RE) both come from mathematical physics, and they can be defined in any monoidal category. For cartesian monoidal categories, we prove that every solution to the RE provides a…
Continuing the quest for exclusive Racah matrices, which are needed for evaluation of colored arborescent-knot polynomials in Chern-Simons theory, we suggest to extract them from a new kind of a double-evolution -- that of the antiparallel…
We introduce a class of so-called Pl$\ddot{\mathrm{u}}$cker polynomials with respect to $2l\times l$ matrices, which varies the standard quadratic Pl$\ddot{\mathrm{u}}$cker expression by increased power and twisted linear forms. Besides…
There is a well-known construction of a Jordan algebra via a sharped cubic form. We introduce a generalized sharped cubic form and prove that the split spin factor algebra is induced by this construction and satisfies the identity…
We generalize the work of Dem'janenko and Silverman for the Fermat quartics, effectively determining the rational points on the curves $x^{2m}+ax^m+ay^m+y^{2m}=b$ whenever the ranks of some companion hyperelliptic Jacobians are at most one.…
We prove that if $A$ is a regular graded skew Clifford algebra and is a twist of a regular graded Clifford algebra $B$ by an automorphism, then the subalgebra of $A$ generated by a certain normalizing sequence of homogeneous degree-two…
In this paper we provide an alternative solution to a result by Juh\'{a}sz that the twisted conjugacy problem for odd dihedral Artin groups is solvable, that is, groups with presentation $G(m) = \langle a,b \; | \; _{m}(a,b) = {}_{m}(b,a)…
Let $R$ be a polynomial ring in $m$ variables over a field of characteristic zero. We classify all rank $n$ twisted generalized Weyl algebras over $R$, up to $\mathbb{Z}^n$-graded isomorphisms, in terms of higher spin 6-vertex…
The partial-dual Euler-genus polynomial was defined by Gross, Mansour, and Tucker to analyze how the Euler genus of a ribbon graph changes under partial duality, a generalization of Euler-Poincar\'{e} duality introduced by Chmutov. The…
We construct categorical braid group actions from 2-representations of a Heisenberg algebra. These actions are induced by certain complexes which generalize spherical (Seidel-Thomas) twists and are reminiscent of the Rickard complexes…
We consider the Alexander polynomial of a plane algebraic curve twisted by a linear representation. We show that it divides the product of the polynomials of the singularity links, for unitary representations. Moreover, their quotient is…
By twisted quantum invariants we mean polynomial invariants of knots in the three-sphere endowed with a representation of the fundamental group into the automorphism group of a Hopf algebra $H$. These are obtained by the Reshetikhin-Turaev…
We solve three enumerative problems concerning families of planar maps. More precisely, we establish algebraic equations for the generating function of non-separable triangulations in which all vertices have degree at least d, for a certain…
We give an algorithm to decide whether a given braid with four strings is a product of three factors which are conjugates of standard generators of the braid group. The algorithm is of polynomial time. It is based on the Garside theory. We…
The theory of bi-orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle is developed for a general class of weights leading to systems of recurrence relations and derivatives of the polynomials and their associated functions, and to…
We use a representation of a graded twisted tensor product of $K[x]$ with $K[y]$ in $L(K^{\Bbb{N}_0})$ in order to obtain a nearly complete classification of these graded twisted tensor products via infinite matrices. There is one…
Braided doubles provide a unifying framework for classical and quantum universal enveloping algebras and rational Cherednik algebras. They are a class of algebras with triangular decomposition, arising from a deformation problem, the…
A twisting system is one of the major tools to study graded algebras, however, it is often difficult to construct a (non-algebraic) twisting system if a graded algebra is given by generators and relations. In this paper, we show that a…
Given a system of equations in a "random" finitely generated subgroup of the braid group, we show how to find a small ordered list of elements in the subgroup, which contains a solution to the equations with a significant probability.…
Consider a quadratic polynomial $f\left(\xi_{1},\dots,\xi_{n}\right)$ of independent Bernoulli random variables. What can be said about the concentration of $f$ on any single value? This generalises the classical Littlewood--Offord problem,…
