We conclude our analysis of bubble divergences in the flat spinfoam model. In [arXiv:1008.1476] we showed that the divergence degree of an arbitrary two-complex Gamma can be evaluated exactly by means of twisted cohomology. Here, we…

In a series of papers the authors associated to an $L^2$-acyclic group $\Gamma$ an invariant $\mathcal{P}(\Gamma)$ that is a formal difference of polytopes in the vector space $H_1(\Gamma;\Bbb{R})$. This invariant is in particular defined…

For a finite group $\Gamma$, acting on a finite group $G,$ we find necessary conditions for which the first $\Gamma_0$-equivariant Hochschild cohomology of the group algebra $kG$ is non-trivial, where $k$ is a field of characteristic $p$…

We give a definition of differentiable cohomology of a Lie group G (possibly infinite-dimensional) with coefficients in any abelian Lie group. This differentiable cohomology maps both to the cohomology of the group made discrete and to Lie…

In this paper, the key ideas of characterizing universality classes of dissipation-free (incompressible) quantum Hall fluids by mathematical objects called quantum Hall lattices are reviewed. Many general theorems about the classification…

We define generalized bialgebras and Hopf algebras and on this basis we introduce quantum categories and quantum groupoids. The quantization of the category of linear (super)spaces is constructed. We establish a criterion for the classical…

We construct the analytic lattice cohomology associated with the analytic type of any complex normal surface singularity. It is the categorification of the geometric genus of the germ, whenever the link is a rational homology sphere. It is…

After recalling briefly some basic properties of the quantum group $GL_q(2)$, we study the quantum sphere $S_q^2$, quantum projective space $CP_q(N)$ and quantum Grassmannians as examples of complex (K\"{a}hler) quantum manifolds. The…

Classical mechanics can be formulated using a symplectic structure on classical phase space, while quantum mechanics requires a complex-differentiable structure on that same space. Complex-differentiable structures on a given real manifold…

To any complex Hadamard matrix we associate a quantum permutation group. The correspondence is not one-to-one, but the quantum group encapsulates a number of subtle properties of the matrix. We investigate various aspects of the…

Using a homological invariant together with an obstruction class in a certain Ext^2-group, we may classify objects in triangulated categories that have projective resolutions of length two. This invariant gives strong classification results…

We introduce $\Delta$-groups and show how they fit in the context of lattice field theory. To a manifold $M$ we associate a $\Delta$-group $\Gamma(M)$. We define the symmetric cohomology $HS^n(G,A)$ of a group $G$ with coefficients in a…

Let \Gamma be a finite group and (V,q) be a regular quadratic \Gamma-form defined over an integral domain $\mathcal{O}_S$ of a global function field (of odd characteristic). We use flat cohomology to classify the quadratic \Gamma-forms…

We define quantum exterior product wedge_h and quantum exterior differential d_h on Poisson manifolds, of which symplectic manifolds are an important class of examples. Quantum de Rham cohomology is defined as the cohomology of d_h. We also…

We prove that the quantum cohomology ring of any minuscule or cominuscule homogeneous space, specialized at q=1, is semisimple. This implies that complex conjugation defines an algebra automorphism of the quantum cohomology ring localized…

A quantum set is defined to be simply a set of nonzero finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. Together with binary relations, essentially the quantum relations of Weaver, quantum sets form a dagger compact category. Functions between quantum…

Finite-dimensional Quantum Mechanics can be geometrically formulated as a proper classical-like Hamiltonian theory in a projective Hilbert space. The description of composite quantum systems within the geometric Hamiltonian framework is…

Twisting process for quantum linear spaces is defined. It consists in a particular kind of globally defined deformations on finitely generated algebras. Given a quantum space (A_1,A), a multiplicative cosimplicial quasicomplex C[A_1] in the…

The notion of a higher bundle gerbe is introduced to give a geometric realization of the higher degree integral cohomology of certain manifolds. We consider examples using the infinite dimensional spaces arising in gauge theories.

A new framework for noncommutative complex geometry on quantum homogeneous spaces is introduced. The main ingredients used are covariant differential calculi and Takeuchi's categorical equivalence for faithfully flat quantum homogeneous…
