We associate a graded monoidal supercategory $\mathcal{H}\mathit{eis}_{F,k}$ to every graded Frobenius superalgebra $F$ and integer $k$. These categories, which categorify a broad range of lattice Heisenberg algebras, recover many…
We introduce a correspondence between phylogenetic trees and Brauer diagrams, inspired by links between binary trees and matchings described by Diaconis and Holmes (1998). This correspondence gives rise to a range of semigroup structures on…
Recently, a new conjecture on the degrees of the irreducible Brauer characters of a finite group was presented by the second author. In this paper we propose a 'local' version of this conjecture for blocks B of finite groups, giving a lower…
We study the general theory of Frobenius algebras with group actions. These structures arise when one is studying the algebraic structures associated to a geometry stemming from a physical theory with a global finite gauge group, i.e.…
We discuss when the incidence coalgebra of a locally finite preordered set is right co-Frobenius. As a consequence, we obtain that a structural matrix algebra over a field $k$ is Frobenius if and only if it consists, up to a permutation of…
We present an algebra related to the Coxeter group of type F4 which can be viewed as the Brauer algebra of type F4 and is obtained as a subalgebra of the Brauer algebra of type E6. We also describe some properties of this algebra.
Necessary and sufficient conditions for some deformation algebras to provide formal Frobenius structures are given. Also, examples of formal Frobenius structures with fundamental tensor that is not of the deformation type and examples of…
We introduce a graphical framework for Bayesian inference that is sufficiently general to accommodate not just the standard case but also recent proposals for a theory of quantum Bayesian inference wherein one considers density operators…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0, let m,r be integers with m\ge1, r\ge0 and m\ge r and let S_0(2m,r) be the symplectic Schur algebra over k as introduced by the first author. We introduce the symplectic Schur…
Let $A$ be the locally unital algebra associated to a cyclotomic oriented Brauer category over an arbitrary algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic $p\ge 0$. The category of locally finite dimensional representations of $A $ is…
We discuss algebraic and representation theoretic structures in braided tensor categories C which obey certain finiteness conditions. Much interesting structure of such a category is encoded in a Hopf algebra H in C. In particular, the Hopf…
For each n>0, we define an algebra having many properties that one might expect to hold for a Brauer algebra of type Bn. It is defined by means of a presentation by generators and relations. We show that this algebra is a subalgebra of the…
When $A$ in the Kauffman bracket skein relation is a primitive $2N$th root of unity, where $N\geq 3$ is odd, the Kauffman bracket skein algebra $K_N(F)$ of a finite type surface $F$ is a ring extension of the $SL_2\mathbb{C}$-characters…
We exhibit central simple algebras over the function field of a diagonal quartic surface over the complex numbers that represent the 2-torsion part of its Brauer group. We investigate whether the 2-primary part of the Brauer group of a…
To every finite-dimensional $\mathbb C$-algebra $\Lambda$ of finite representation type we associate an affine variety. These varieties are a large generalization of the varieties defined by "$u$ variables" satisfying "$u$-equations", first…
We give formulas for calculating the unramified Brauer group of a homogeneous space $X$ of a semisimple simply connected group $G$ with finite geometric stabilizer $\bar F$ over a wide family of fields of characteristic 0. When $k$ is a…
We study two variations of the Brauer algebra $B_n(x)$. The first is the algebra $A_n(x)$, which generalizes the Brauer algebra by considering loops. The second is the algebra $L_n(x)$, the $A_n(x)$-subalgebra generated by diagrams without…
The partition algebras are algebras of diagrams (which contain the group algebra of the symmetric group and the Brauer algebra) such that the multiplication is given by a combinatorial rule and such that the structure constants of the…
We introduce Brauer algebras associated to complex reflection groups of type $G(m,p,n)$, and study their representation theory via Clifford theory. In particular, we determine the decomposition numbers of these algebras in characteristic…
Let $\mathcal B(\delta)$ be the Brauer category over the complex field $\mathbb C$ with the parameter $\delta$. In non-semisimple case, $\delta$ is an integer, and each weight space of $(\frac{\delta}2-1)$th semi-infinite wedge space…
