Given a front projection of a Legendrian knot $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ which has been cut into several pieces along vertical lines, we assign a differential graded algebra to each piece and prove a van Kampen theorem describing the…
We mainly focus on Classical limit, Splitting map, and Frobenius homomorphism for stated $SL(n)$-skein modules, and Unicity Theorem for stated $SL(n)$-skein algebras. Let $(M,N)$ be a marked three manifold. We use $S_n(M,N,v)$ to denote the…
Khovanov homology, an invariant of links in $\mathbb{R}^3$, is a graded homology theory that categorifies the Jones polynomial in the sense that the graded Euler characteristic of the homology is the Jones polynomial. Asaeda, Przytycki and…
Let $(M,\mathcal{N})$ be a marked 3-manifold. We use $S_n(M,\mathcal{N},v)$ to denote the stated $SL_n$-skein module of $(M,\mathcal{N})$ where $v$ is a nonzero complex number. We establish a surjective algebra homomorphism from…
We study skein modules of 3-manifolds by embedding them into the Hilbert spaces of 4d ${\cal N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills theories. When the 3-manifold has reduced holonomy, we present an algorithm to determine the dimension and the list of…
Using the $U_q^Hsl_2$ non-semisimple invariants of 3-manifolds at odd roots of unity, we construct maps on the Kauffman bracket skein module at roots of unity of order twice an odd number, having any possible abelian non central character…
This is a review/announcement of results concerning the connection between certain exactly solvable two-dimensional models of statistical mechanics, namely loop models, and the equivariant $K$-theory of the cotangent bundle of the…
We study the stated skein modules of marked 3-manifolds. We generalize the splitting homomorphism for stated skein algebras of surfaces to a splitting homomorphism for stated skein modules of 3-manifolds. We show that there exists a…
We study the algebraic and geometric properties of stated skein algebras of surfaces with punctured boundary. We prove that the skein algebra of the bigon is isomorphic to the quantum group ${\mathcal O}_{q^2}(\mathrm{SL}(2))$ providing a…
We establish a correspondence between vector-valued modular forms with respect to a symmetric tensor representation and quasimodular forms. This is carried out by first obtaining an explicit isomorphism between the space of vector-valued…
In this short note, we show that the Ginzburg-Vasserot map between the quantum affine algebra of type A_(n-1) and the equivariant K-theory group of the Steinberg Variety (of n-step flags in C^d) restricts and remains surjective at the level…
We define the Conway skein module C(M) of ordered based links in a 3-manifold M. This module gives rise to C(M)-valued invariants of usual links in M. We determine a basis of the Z[z]-module C(F x [0,1])/Tor(C(F x [0,1])) where F is the…
Using the formalism of discrete quantum group gauge theory, one can construct the quantum algebras of observables for the Hamiltonian Chern-Simons model. The resulting moduli algebras provide quantizations of the algebra of functions on the…
In this paper we study the concept of characteristic numbers and Chern slopes in the context of curve configurations in the real and complex projective plane. We show that some extremal line configurations inherit the same asymptotic…
We consider two types of quotients of the integrable modules of $\hat{sl}_2$. These spaces of coinvariants have dimensions described in terms of the Verlinde algebra of level-$k$. We describe monomial bases for the spaces of coinvariants,…
We consider small quantum groups with root systems of Cartan, super and modular type, among others. These are constructed as Drinfeld doubles of finite-dimensional Nichols algebras of diagonal type. We prove a linkage principle for them by…
In this expository manuscript, we review the construction of Gromov-Witten virtual fundamental class via FOOO's theory of Kuranishi structures for moduli spaces of pseudo-holomorphic maps defined on closed Riemann surfaces. We consider…
Ontological theories of quantum mechanics describe a single system by means of well-defined classical variables and attribute the quantum uncertainties to our ignorance about the underlying reality represented by these variables. We…
The skein algebra of an oriented $3$-manifold is a classical limit of the Kauffman bracket skein module and gives the coordinate ring of the $SL_2(\mathbb{C})$-character variety. In this paper we determine the quotient of a polynomial ring…
A geometric construction of Z_2-graded orthogonal modular categories is given. Their 0-graded parts coincide with categories previously obtained by Blanchet and the author from the category of tangles modulo the Kauffman skein relations.…
