For a commutative Frobenius algebra $A$, we construct a $(2,3,3+\varepsilon)$-dimensional TQFT $\mathsf{AFK}_A$ that assigns to a 3-manifold a skein module of embedded $A$-decorated surfaces. These surface skein modules have been first…

This paper improves several previously known results. First, the results describing the R-skewsymmetric algebra and the quadratic dual of the R-symmetric algebra as Frobenius algebras are shown to be true with any restriction on the…

We associate a diagrammatic monoidal category $\mathcal{H}\textit{eis}_k(A;z,t)$, which we call the quantum Frobenius Heisenberg category, to a symmetric Frobenius superalgebra $A$, a central charge $k \in \mathbb{Z}$, and invertible…

For every oriented surface of finite type, we construct a functorial Khovanov homology for links in a thickening of the surface, which takes values in a categorification of the corresponding gl(2) skein module. The latter is a mild…

The sliced skein algebra of a closed surface of genus $g$ with $m$ punctures, $\mathfrak{S}=\Sigma_{g,m}$, is the quotient of the Kauffman bracket skein algebra $\mathcal{S}_\xi(\mathfrak{S})$ corresponding to fixing the scalar values of…

We construct a quantum cluster structure on the skew-field of fractions ${\rm Frac}({\mathscr S}_\omega(\mathfrak{S}))$ of the stated ${\rm SL}_n$-skein algebra ${\mathscr S}_\omega(\mathfrak{S})$, where $\mathfrak{S}$ is a triangulable pb…

Skein algebras of surfaces quantize character varieties of topological surfaces, and in low genus, these quantizations are often related to algebras arising in representation theory. For example, Terwilliger defined a universal $SL_2$…

Let $k$ be a perfect field of prime characteristic $p$, $G$ a finite group scheme over $k$, and $V$ a finite-dimensional $G$-module. Let $S=\mathop{\mathrm{Sym}}V$ be the symmetric algebra with the standard grading. Let $M$ be a $\Bbb…

We investigate aspects of Kauffman bracket skein algebras of surfaces and modules of 3-manifolds using quantum torus methods. These methods come in two flavors: embedding the skein algebra into a quantum torus related to quantum Teichmuller…

We establish relations between Frobenius parts and between flat-dominant dimensions of algebras linked by Frobenius bimodules. This is motivated by the Nakayama conjecture and an approach of Martinez-Villa to the Auslander-Reiten conjecture…

When the quantum parameter $q^{1/2}$ is a root of unity of odd order. The stated skein module $S_{q^{1/2}}(M,\mathcal{N})$ has an $S_{1}(M,\mathcal{N})$-module structure, where $(M,\mathcal{N})$ is a marked three manifold. We prove…

We propose a skein model for the quantum cluster algebras of surface type with coefficients. We introduce a skein algebra $\mathscr{S}_{\Sigma,\mathbb{W}}^{A}$ of a walled surface $(\Sigma,\mathbb{W})$, and prove that it has a quantum…

Let q_1, ..., q_n be some variables and set K:=Z[q_1, ..., q_n]/(q_1q_2...q_n). We show that there exists a K-bilinear product \star on H^*(F_n;Z)\otimes K which is uniquely determined by some quantum cohomology like properties (most…

This is the third article in the series begun with [BonWon3, BonWon4], devoted to finite-dimensional representations of the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of an oriented surface $S$. In [BonWon3] we associated a classical shadow to an…

We prove a result that relates the number of homomorphisms from the fundamental group of a compact nonorientable surface to a finite group $G$, where conjugacy classes of the boundary components of the surface must map to prescribed…

Let $(M,\mathcal{N})$ be a marked 3-manifold. We use $S_n(M,\mathcal{N},v)$ to denote the stated $SL_n$-skein module of $(M,\mathcal{N})$ where $v$ is a nonzero complex number. We establish a surjective algebra homomorphism from…

We extend some results of Bonahon, Bullock, Turaev and Wong concerning the skein algebras of closed surfaces to L^e's stated skein algebra associated to open surfaces. We prove that the stated skein algebra with deforming parameter +1…

An SL_n-character of a group G is the trace of an SL_n-representation of G. We show that all algebraic relations between SL_n-characters of G can be visualized as relations between graphs (resembling Feynman diagrams) in any topological…

The author defined for each (commutative) Frobenius algebra a skein module of surfaces in a $3$-manifold $M$ bounding a closed $1$-manifold $\alpha \subset \partial M$. The surface components are colored by elements of the Frobenius…

We consider two different quantizations of the character variety consisting of all representations of surface groups in SL_2. One is the skein algebra considered by Przytycki-Sikora and Turaev. The other is the quantum Teichmuller space…
