Scaffolds are certain tensors arising in the study of association schemes, and have been (implicitly) understood diagrammatically as digraphs with distinguished "root" nodes and with matrix edge weights, often taken from Bose-Mesner…
We prove that the Drinfeld generators of grt_1(k) span the image of this Lie algebra in the abelianization of the commutator of the free Lie algebra with two generators. We show that this result implies Gamma-function formulas for arbitrary…
We present a formalism within which the relationship (discovered by Drinfel'd) between associators (for quasi-triangular quasi-Hopf algebras) and (a variant of) the Grothendieck-Teichmuller group becomes simple and natural, leading to a…
The paper discusses properties of adari(pal) and ganit(pic) which are Ecalle's maps among certain sets of moulds related to the double shuffle relations of MZVs. We give self-contained proof of their basic properties which are exhibited in…
Let $K$ be a finite group and let $G$ be a finite group acting on $K$ by automorphisms. In this paper we study two different but intimately related subjects: on the one side we classify all possible multiplicative and associative structures…
We extend Milnor's mu-invariants of link homotopy to ordered (classical or virtual) tangles. Simple combinatorial formulas for mu-invariants are given in terms of counting trees in Gauss diagrams. Invariance under Reidemeister moves…
The gauge symmetry and shift/translational symmetry of a 3D BF action, which are associated to a pair of dual Lie algebras, can be combined to form the Drinfel'd double. This combined symmetry is the gauge symmetry of the Chern-Simons…
We construct a cohomology theory controlling the deformations of a general Drinfel'd algebra. The picture presented here has two sides -- the combinatorial one related with the fact of the existence of a graded Lie algebra structure on the…
We define and investigate a geometric object, called an associative geometry, corresponding to an associative algebra (and, more generally, to an associative pair). Associative geometries combine aspects of Lie groups and of generalized…

According to Racinet's work, the scheme of double shuffle and regularization relations between cyclotomic analogues of multiple zeta values has the structure of a torsor over a pro-unipotent $\mathbb Q$-algebraic group $\sf{DMR}_0$, which…
Commuting pairs of algebraic structures on a set have been studied by several authors and may be described equivalently as algebras for the tensor product of Lawvere theories, or more basically as certain bifunctors that here we call bifold…
In this work we extend the recently introduced group-theoretical approach to moment-cumulant relations in non-commutative probability theory to the notion of conditionally free cumulants. This approach is based on a particular combinatorial…
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be any field. The Grassmannian $\mathrm{Gr}(m,n)$ is the set of $m$-dimensional subspaces in $\mathbb{F}^n$, and the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{F})$ acts transitively on it. The Schubert cells of…
Racinet studied the scheme associated with the double shuffle and regularization relations between multiple polylogarithm values at $N^{th}$ roots of unity and constructed a group scheme attached to the situation; he also showed it to be…
It has been understood that correlation functions of multi-trace operators in ${\cal N}=4$ SYM can be neatly computed using the group algebra of symmetric groups or walled Brauer algebras. On the other hand such algebras have been known to…
Every smooth manifold contains particles which propagate. These form objects and morphisms of a category equipped with a functor to the category of Abelian groups, turning this into a 0+1 topological field theory. We investigate the…
A theory of double affine and special double affine bundles, i.e. differential manifolds with two compatible (special) affine bundle structures, is developed as an affine counterpart of the theory of double vector bundles. The motivation…
This is a survey on Drinfeld associators and their generalizations, where we focus on operadic aspects.
In this paper we will first present a generalization of the wedge product of association schemes to table algebras and give a necessary and sufficient condition for a table algebra to be the wedge product of two table algebras. Then we show…
