I review my work together with Piljin Yi on the spectrum of BPS-saturated states in N = 2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories. In an M-theory description, such states are realized as certain two-brane configurations. We first show how the…
We compute the equivariant homology and cohomology of projective spaces with integer coefficients. More precisely, in the case of cyclic groups, we show that the cellular filtration of the projective space $P(k\rho )$, of lines inside…
We introduce for each quiver $Q$ and each algebraic oriented cohomology theory $A$, the cohomological Hall algebra (CoHA) of $Q$, as the $A$-homology of the moduli of representations of the preprojective algebra of $Q$. This generalizes the…
The semi-stable ChowHa of a quiver with stability is defined as an analog of the Cohomological Hall algebra of Kontsevich and Soibelman via convolution in equivariant Chow groups of semi-stable loci in representation varieties of quivers.…
We propose a definition of a "$C^*$-Eberlein" algebra, which is a weak form of a $C^*$-bialgebra with a sort of "unitary generator". Our definition is motivated to ensure that commutative examples arise exactly from semigroups of…
BPS algebras are the symmetries of a wide class of brane-inspired models. They are closely related to Yangians -- the peculiar and somewhat sophisticated limit of DIM algebras. Still they possess some simple and explicit representations. We…
Given a quiver with potential $(Q,W)$, Kontsevich-Soibelman constructed a Hall algebra on the cohomology of the stack of representations of $(Q,W)$. As shown by Davison-Meinhardt, this algebra comes with a filtration whose associated graded…
In this paper, we show that every pair of absolutely compatible Hilbert space effects are coexistent and exhibit a partial orthogonality property. We introduce the notion of partially ortho-coexistence. We generalize absolute compatibility…
We study the Gauge/Bethe correspondence for two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric quiver gauge theories associated with toric Calabi-Yau three-folds, whose BPS algebras have recently been identified as the quiver Yangians. We…
We study the counting problem of BPS D-branes wrapping holomorphic cycles of a general toric Calabi-Yau manifold. We evaluate the Jeffrey-Kirwan residues for the flavoured Witten index for the supersymmetric quiver quantum mechanics on the…
We study moduli spaces of a class of three dimensional N=4 gauge theories which are in one-to-one correspondence with a certain set of ordered pairs of integer partitions. It was found that these theories can be realised on brane intervals…
Hilbert space representations of cross product *-algebras of the Hopf *-algebras U_q(gl_2) with the coordinate algebras O(C^2_q) and O(R^3_q) of quantum vector spaces and U_q(su_2) with coordinate algebras O(SU_q(2)) and O(S^2_q) of…
We give a $K$-theoretic and geometric interpretation for a generalized weighted Ehrhart theory of a full-dimensional lattice polytope $P$, depending on a given homogeneous polynomial function $\varphi$ on $P$, and with Laurent polynomial…
We discuss a set of heterotic and type II string theory compactifications to 1+1 dimensions that are characterized by factorized internal worldsheet CFTs of the form $V_1\otimes \bar V_2$, where $V_1, V_2$ are self-dual (super) vertex…
This is a review article exploring similarities between moduli of quiver representations and moduli of vector bundles over a smooth projective curve. After describing the basic properties of these moduli problems and constructions of their…
Recently the authors initiated an $\imath$Hall algebra approach to (universal) $\imath$quantum groups arising from quantum symmetric pairs. In this paper we construct and study BGP type reflection functors which lead to isomorphisms of the…
We compare two cohomological Hall algebras (CoHA). The first one is the preprojective CoHA introduced by the authors in arXiv:1407.7994 associated to each quiver Q, and each algebraic oriented cohomology theory A. It is defined as the…
In this paper, we associate Galois representations to globally generic cuspidal automorphic representations on GSp(4), over a totally real field F, which are Steinberg at some finite place. This association is compatible with the local…
We study pairs of 4d N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories that share the same vacuum moduli space and the same chiral field content, encoded by a common quiver, but differ in their superpotentials. These theories arise as worldvolume theories…
Let $T$ be a torus and $B$ a compact $T-$manifold. Goresky, Kottwitz, and MacPherson show in \cite{GKM} that if $B$ is (what was subsequently called) a GKM manifold, then there exists a simple combinatorial description of the equivariant…
