Drinfeld doubles of finite subgroups of SU(2) and SU(3) are investigated in detail. Their modular data - S, T and fusion matrices - are computed explicitly, and illustrated by means of fusion graphs. This allows us to reexamine certain…

In this paper we discuss gauging noninvertible zero-form symmetries in two dimensions. We specialize to certain gaugeable cases, specifically, fusion categories of the form Rep(H) for H a suitable Hopf algebra (which includes the special…

We study the structure of fusion rules for the triplet $W$-algebra $\mathcal{W}_{p_+,p_-}$. By using the vertex tensor category theory developed by Huang, Lepowsky and Zhang, we rederive certain non-semisimple fusion rules given by…

Properties of a given symmetry group G are very important in investigation of a physical system invariant under its action. In the case of finite spin systems (magnetic rings, some planar macromolecules) the symmetry group is isomorphic…

We develop the theory of Hopf bimodules for a finite rigid tensor category C. Then we use this theory to define a distinguished invertible object D of C and an isomorphism of tensor functors ?^{**} and D tensor ^{**}? tensor D^{-1}. This…

We prove that the Drinfeld double of an arbitrary finite group scheme has finitely generated cohomology. That is to say, for G any finite group scheme, and D(G) the Drinfeld double of the group ring kG, we show that the self-extension…

We give a generalization of Gelfand's criterion on the commutativity of Hecke algebras for Gelfand pairs and multiplicity-free triples over algebraically closed fields of arbitrary characteristic. Using more lenient versions of projectivity…

A $G$-graded extension of a fusion category $\mathcal{C}$ yields a categorical action of $G$ on the center $Z(\mathcal C)$. If the extension admits a spherical structure, we provide a method for recovering its fusion rules in terms of the…

We prove that any non-symmetric ribbon tensor category $\mathcal{C}$ with the fusion rules of the compact group of type $G_2$ needs to be equivalent to the representation category of the corresponding Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group for $q$…

In a previous paper the authors constructed a class of quasi-Hopf algebras $D^{\omega}(G, A)$ associated to a finite group $G$, generalizing the twisted quantum double construction. We gave necessary and sufficient conditions, cohomological…

Gauging a finite group 0-form symmetry $G$ of a quantum field theory (QFT) results in a QFT with a Rep$(G)$ symmetry implemented by Wilson lines. The group $G$ determines the fusion of Wilson lines. However, in general, the fusion rules of…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ be the polynomial ring over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We study the endomorphism rings of Drinfeld $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$-modules of arbitrary rank over finite fields. We compare the endomorphism rings to their subrings…

We show how the fusion rules for an affine Kac-Moody Lie algebra g of type A_{n-1}, n = 2 or 3, for all positive integral level k, can be obtained from elementary group theory. The orbits of the kth symmetric group, S_k, acting on k-tuples…

This is an expository introduction to fusion rules for affine Kac-Moody algebras, with major focus on the algorithmic aspects of their computation and the relationship with tensor product decompositions. Many explicit examples are included…

A Fourier transform S is defined for the quantum double D(G) of a finite group G. Acting on characters of D(G), S and the central ribbon element of D(G) generate a unitary matrix representation of the group SL(2,Z). The characters form a…

In this paper, we extend a classical vanishing result of Burnside from the character tables of finite groups to the character tables of commutative fusion rings, or more generally to a certain class of abelian normalizable hypergroups. We…

We compute all fusion algebras with symmetric rational $S$-matrix up to dimension 12. Only two of them may be used as $S$-matrices in a modular datum: the $S$-matrices of the quantum doubles of $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ and $S_3$. Almost all…

Given the Hamiltonian realisation of a topological (3+1)d gauge theory with finite group $G$, we consider a family of tensor network representations of its ground state subspace. This family is indexed by gapped boundary conditions encoded…

We study the fusion rings of tilting modules for a quantum group at a root of unity modulo the tensor ideal of negligible tilting modules. We identify them in type A with the combinatorial rings from [KS] and give a similar description of…

We address the question whether the condition on a fusion category being solvable or not is determined by its fusion rules. We prove that the answer is affirmative for some families of non-solvable examples arising from representations of…
