Associated to a symmetric space there is a canonical connection with zero torsion and parallel curvature. This connection acts as a binary operator on the vector space of smooth sections of the tangent bundle, and it is linear with respect…
We introduce the notion of "binary" positive and complex geometries, giving a completely rigid geometric realization of the combinatorics of generalized associahedra attached to any Dynkin diagram. We also define open and closed "cluster…
The Temperley-Lieb and Brauer algebras and their cyclotomic analogues, as well as the partition algebra, are all examples of twisted semigroup algebras. We prove a general theorem about the cellularity of twisted semigroup algebras of…
In this paper, we explore algebraic structures and low dimensional topology underlying quantum information and computation. We revisit quantum teleportation from the perspective of the braid group, the symmetric group and the virtual braid…
Approximation sequences and derived equivalences occur frequently in the research of mutation of tilting objects in representation theory, algebraic geometry and noncommutative geometry. In this paper, we introduce symmetric approximation…
The Temperley--Lieb algebra is a finite dimensional associative algebra that arose in the context of statistical mechanics and occurs naturally as a quotient of the Hecke algebra arising from a Coxeter group of type $A$. It is often…
Let $\Gamma$ denote a distance-regular graph with diameter $D \ge 3$. Assume $\Gamma$ has classical parameters $(D,b,\alpha,\beta)$ with $b < -1$. Let $X$ denote the vertex set of $\Gamma$ and let $A \in MX$ denote the adjacency matrix of…
For a finite group $G$, we define a ghost ring and a mark homomorphism for the double Burnside ring of left-free $(G,G)$-bisets. In analogy to the case of the Burnside ring $B(G)$, the ghost ring has a much simpler ring structure, and after…
We study integrable models in the context of the recently discovered Gauge/YBE correspondence, where the Yang-Baxter equation is promoted to a duality between two supersymmetric gauge theories. We study flavored elliptic genus of 2d…
In this dissertation, we investigate the cohomology theory of restricted Lie algebras. The representation theory of restricted Lie algebras is reviewed including a description of the restricted universal enveloping algebra. In the case of…
Preliminary investigations of the topological phase of string theory along the lines of a (restricted) $\dot{w}_{\infty}$ non-linear sigma model are provided. Gauge fixing the w gravity gauge fields by preserving a geometric identity Lorenz…
Symmetry transformations of the space-time fields of string theory are generated by certain similarity transformations of the stress-tensor of the associated conformal field theories. This observation is complicated by the fact that, as we…
Given an algebra with an idempotent, we introduce two procedures to construct families of new algebras, termed mirror-reflective algebras and reduced mirror-reflective algebras. We then establish connections among these algebras by…
We continue the analysis of the ghost wedge states in the oscillator formalism by studying the spectral properties of the ghost matrices of Neumann coefficients. We show that the traditional spectral representation is not valid for these…
We propose a model in which a spliced vector bundle (with an arbitrary number of gauge structures in the splice) possesses a geometry which do not split. The model employs connection 1-forms with values in a space-product of Lie algebras,…
In this article, we study bounded-below locally finite $\mathbb{Z}$-graded algebras, which are referred to as commonly graded algebras in literature. Commonly graded algebras have almost similar theory as that of connected graded algebras,…
In earlier work we proposed a string theory dual to two dimensional Yang-Mills theory at zero coupling (which can also be thought of as a $BF$ theory), given by a Polyakov-like generalization of Ho\v rava's topological rigid string theory,…
We show that the homology of a Temperley-Lieb algebra on an even number of strands has a rich algebraic structure and is highly nontrivial in general. This is achieved by proving that it is entirely governed by a differential graded…
A $\nabla$-algebra is a natural generalization of a Heyting algebra, unifying several algebraic structures, including bounded lattices, Heyting algebras, temporal Heyting algebras, and the algebraic representation of dynamic topological…
In any string theory there is a hidden, twisted superconformal symmetry algebra, part of which is made up by the BRST current and the anti-ghost. We investigate how this algebra can be systematically constructed for strings with $N\!-\!2$…
