Quantum moduli algebras $\mathcal{L}_{g,n}^{\mathrm{inv}}(H)$ were introduced by Alekseev-Grosse-Schomerus and Buffenoir-Roche in the context of quantization of character varieties of surfaces and exist for any quasitriangular Hopf algebra…

We study quantum geometry of Nakajima quiver varieties of two different types - framed A-type quivers and ADHM quivers. While these spaces look completely different we find a surprising connection between equivariant K-theories thereof with…

The theory of bottom tangles is used to construct a quantum fundamental group. On the other hand, the skein module is considered as a quantum analogue of the $SL(2)$ representation of the fundamental group. Here we construct the skein…

The Stone-von Neumann Theorem is a fundamental result which unified the competing quantum mechanical models of matrix mechanics and wave mechanics. It's mechanism of proof ultimately involved the study of unitary group representations on a…

We compute the factorisation homology of the four-punctured sphere and punctured torus over the quantum group $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ explicitly as categories of equivariant modules using the framework of `Integrating Quantum…

We propose a skein model for the quantum cluster algebras of surface type with coefficients. We introduce a skein algebra $\mathscr{S}_{\Sigma,\mathbb{W}}^{A}$ of a walled surface $(\Sigma,\mathbb{W})$, and prove that it has a quantum…

We show that we can release the rigidity of the skew Howe duality process for ${\mathfrak sl}_n$ knot invariants by rescaling the quantum Weyl group action, and recover skein modules for web-tangles. This skew Howe duality phenomenon can be…

Given any unoriented link diagram, a group of new knot invariants are constructed. Each of them satisfies a generalized 4 term skein relation. The coefficients of each invariant is from a commutative ring. Homomorphisms and representations…

We investigate aspects of Kauffman bracket skein algebras of surfaces and modules of 3-manifolds using quantum torus methods. These methods come in two flavors: embedding the skein algebra into a quantum torus related to quantum Teichmuller…

In this note we introduce some concepts of Species Quantum Mechanics. Specifically, we consider quantum operators that correspond to the species number $N_s$ and the tower mass scale $m_t$ in the context of the swampland distance…

We obtain a family of skein identities in the Kauffman bracket skein module which relate Frobenius elements to Jones-Wenzl projectors at roots of unity. We view these skein identities as certain incarnations of Steinberg tensor product…
