In \cite{FT19}, Finkelberg and Tsymbaliuk introduced the notion of shifted quantum affine algebras and described their role in the study of quantized Coulomb branches associated to certain 3D $N = 4$ quiver gauge theories. We describe a new…

Given a gauge theory with gauge group G, it is sometimes useful to find an equivalent formulation in terms of a non-trivial gauge subgroup H of G. This amounts to fixing the gauge partially from G down to H. We study this problem…

We further develop a model unifying general relativity with quantum mechanics proposed in our earlier papers (J. Math. Phys. 38, 5840 (1998); 41, 5168 (2000)). The model is based on a noncommutative algebra $A$ defined on a groupoid $\Gamma…

The universal enveloping algebra of any simple Lie algebra g contains a family of commutative subalgebras, called the quantum shift of argument subalgebras math.RT/0606380, math.QA/0612798. We prove that generically their action on…

This paper is devoted to a discussion of Gromov-Witten-Welschinger (GWW) classes and their applications. In particular, Horava's definition of quantum cohomology of real algebraic varieties is revisited by using GWW-classes and it is…

Starting from a Lie algebroid ${\cal A}$ over a space V we lift its action to the canonical transformations on the principle affine bundle ${\cal R}$ over the cotangent bundle $T^*V$. Such lifts are classified by the first cohomology…

Consider a proper, isometric action by a unimodular, locally compact group $G$ on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$. For equivariant elliptic operators that are invertible outside a cocompact subset of $M$, we show that a localised index…

Let G=G(t,z) be one of the N^2-dimensional bicovariant first order differential calculi for the quantum groups GL_q(N), SL_q(N), O_q(N), or Sp_q(N), where q is a transcendental complex number and z is a regular parameter. It is shown that…

In the present paper, we aim to introduce the cohomology of $\mathcal{O}$-operators defined on the Hom-Lie conformal algebra concerning the given representation. To obtain the desired results, we describe three different cochain complexes…

The Coulomb phase of a quantum field theory, when present, illuminates the analysis of its line operators and one-form symmetries. For 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ field theories the low energy physics of this phase is encoded in the special K\"ahler…

A key notion bridging the gap between {\it quantum operator algebras} \cite{LZ10} and {\it vertex operator algebras} \cite{Bor}\cite{FLM} is the definition of the commutativity of a pair of quantum operators (see section 2 below). This is…
