Let g be a complex semisimple Lie algebra, and f : g --> g/G the adjoint quotient map. Springer theory of Weyl group representations can be seen as the study of the singularities of f. We give a generalization of Springer theory to visible,…
We describe a new class of groups of Burnside type, giving a procedure transforming an arbitrary non-free minimal action of the dihedral group on a Cantor set into an orbit-equivalent action of an infinite finitely generated periodic group.…
Complex reflection groups of rank two are precisely the finite groups in the family of groups that we call J-reflection groups. These groups are particular cases of J-groups as defined by Achar & Aubert in 2008. The family of J-reflection…
We complete the computation of the integral homology of the generalized braid group $B$ associated to an arbitrary irreducible complex reflection group $W$ of exceptional type. In order to do this we explicitely computed the…
In this article, we investigate monoidal, braided, sylleptic centralizers of monoidal, braided, sylleptic 2-functors. We specifically focus on multifusion 2-categories and show that monoidal, braided, sylleptic centralizers are multifusion…
We describe how an Ore category with a Garside family can be used to construct a classifying space for its fundamental group(s). The construction simultaneously generalizes Brady's classifying space for braid groups and the Stein--Farley…
We introduce a notion of representation for a class of generalised quivers known as Coxeter quivers. These representations are built using fusion categories associated to $U_q(\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{l}_2)$ at roots of unity and we show that…
We introduce fusion, contragradient and braiding of Hilbert affine representations of a subfactor planar algebra $P$ (not necessarily having finite depth). We prove that if $N \subset M$ is a subfactor realization of $P$, then the Drinfeld…
We develop the theory of semisimplifications of tensor categories defined by Barrett and Westbury. In particular, we compute the semisimplification of the category of representations of a finite group in characteristic $p$ in terms of…
Garside-theoretical solutions to the conjugacy problem in braid groups depend on the determination of a characteristic subset of the conjugacy class of any given braid, e.g. the sliding circuit set. It is conjectured that, among rigid…
Let D be a finite-dimensional central division algebra over a field K. We define the genus gen(D) of D to be the collection of classes in the Brauer group of K represented by central division K-algebras D' having the same maximal subfields…
The symmetries described by Pin groups are the result of combining a finite number of discrete reflections in (hyper)planes. The current work shows how an analysis using geometric algebra provides a picture complementary to that of the…
We classify braided extensions $C$ of a rank $2$ fusion category. The result shows that $C$ is tensor equivalent to a Deligne's tensor product of some known categories, except $C$ is slightly degenerate and generated by a…
We prove that the generalised non-crossing partitions associated to well-generated complex reflection groups of exceptional type obey two different cyclic sieving phenomena, as conjectured by Armstrong, respectively by Bessis and Reiner.…
We classify braided tensor categories over C of exponential growth which are quasisymmetric, i.e., the squared braiding is the identity on the product of any two simple objects. This generalizes the classification results of Deligne on…
In this paper we study the relative tensor product of module categories over braided fusion categories using, in part, the notion of the relative center of a module category. In particular we investigate the canonical tensor category…
We consider categories of Soergel bimodules for the symmetric groups S_n in their gl(n)-realizations for all n and assemble them into a locally linear monoidal bicategory. Chain complexes of Soergel bimodules likewise form a locally…
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…
Let $G$ be a Garside group with Garside element $\Delta$, and let $\Delta^m$ be the minimal positive central power of $\Delta$. An element $g\in G$ is said to be 'periodic' if some power of it is a power of $\Delta$. In this paper, we study…
This is the eighth part in a series of papers in which we introduce and develop a natural, general tensor category theory for suitable module categories for a vertex (operator) algebra. In this paper (Part VIII), we construct the braided…
