We discuss structural similarities between Knizhnik--Zamolodchikov equations (in fact, their simplest version needed to introduce the Drinfeld associator) and Dyson--Schwinger equations. We emphasize that the latter allow for a filtration…
In this article, we derive multiple polylogarithms from multiple zeta values by using a recursive Riemann-Hilbert problem of additive type. Furthermore we show that this Riemann-Hilbert problem is regarded as an inverse problem for the…
We develop a Gauss decomposition approach to establish a Drinfeld type current presentation for Olshanski's twisted Yangians associated to the orthogonal Lie algebras (also called twisted Yangians of type AI), settling a longstanding open…
We consider an "orientifold" generalization of Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras, depending on a quiver with an involution and a framing. Their representation theory is related, via a Schur-Weyl duality type functor, to Kac-Moody quantum…
We reformulate the Kashiwara-Vergne groups and associators in higher genera, introduced in Alekseev-Kawazumi-Kuno-Naef, in terms of non-commutative connections using the tools developed in a previous paper. As the main result, the case of…
The Kashiwara-Vergne (KV) conjecture is a property of the Campbell-Hausdorff series put forward in 1978. It has been settled in the positive by E. Meinrenken and the first author in 2006. In this paper, we study the uniqueness issue for the…
In this note we give an introduction to Drinfel'd's associator coming from the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov connections and a self-contained proof of the hexagon and pentagon equations by means of minimal amounts of analysis or differential…
Associated varieties are geometric objects appearing in infinite-dimensional representations of semisimple Lie algebras (groups). By applying Fourier transformations to the natural orthogonal oscillator representations of special linear Lie…
We determine explicitly a rational even Drinfeld associator Q in a completion of the universal enveloping algebra of the Lie superalgebra gl(1|1)^3. More generally, we define a new algebra of trivalent diagrams that has a unique even…
In this note, we generalize results of Donagi and Pantev on twisted derived equivalences between elliptically fibered surfaces to higher dimensions. First, we establish a twisted derived equivalence between torsors under abelian schemes…
We establish a correspondence among simple objects of the relative commutant of a full fusion subcategory in a larger fusion category in the sense of Drinfeld, irreducible half-braidings of objects in the larger fusion category with respect…
We present a consistent truncation, allowing us to obtain the first degree birational transformation found by Okamoto for the sixth Painlev\'e equation. The discrete equation arising from its contiguity relation is then just the sum of six…
We define Drinfeld orbifold algebras as filtered algebras deforming the skew group algebra (semi-direct product) arising from the action of a finite group on a polynomial ring. They simultaneously generalize Weyl algebras, graded (or…
We propose a Hodge field theory construction that captures algebraic properties of the reduction of Zwiebach invariants to Gromov-Witten invariants. It generalizes the Barannikov-Kontsevich construction to the case of higher genera…
In this paper we show that the Boltzmann weights of the three-dimensional Baxter-Bazhanov model give representations of the braid group, if some suitable spectral limits are taken. In the trigonometric case we classify all possible spectral…
In 2017 Bar-Natan and the first author showed that solutions to the Kashiwara--Vergne equations are in bijection with certain knot invariants: homomorphic expansions of welded foams. Welded foams are a class of knotted tubes in…
Drinfeld twists, and the twists of Giaquinto and Zhang, allow for algebras and their modules to be deformed by a cocycle. We prove general results about cocycle twists of algebra factorisations and induced representations and apply them to…
The Arnowitt-Deser-Misner (ADM) evolution equations for the induced metric and the extrinsic-curvature tensor of the spacelike surfaces which foliate the space-time manifold in canonical general relativity are a first-order system of…
We study some aspects of conjugation and descent in the context of the irregular Riemann-Hilbert correspondence of D'Agnolo-Kashiwara. First, we give a proof of the fact that Kashiwara's conjugation functor for holonomic D-modules is…
We show an equivalence of Drinfeld's pentagon equation and Hirose-Sato's confluence relations. As a corollary, we obtain a pentagon-free presentation of the Grothendieck-Teichm\"{u}ller group $GRT_1$ and associators.
