This is a tutorial on duality properties of special functions, mainly of orthogonal polynomials in the ($q$-)Askey scheme. It is based on the first part of the 2017 R.P. Agarwal Memorial Lecture delivered by the author.
This paper gives a connection between well chosen reductions of the Links-Gould invariants of oriented links and powers of the Alexander-Conway polynomial. We prove these formulas by showing the representations of the braid groups we derive…
We study the growth of representations of the Lie algebra of vector fields on the affine space that admit a compatible action of the polynomial algebra. We establish the Bernstein inequality for these representations, enabling us to focus…
We introduce a representation theory of q-Lie algebras defined earlier in \cite{DG1}, \cite{DG2}, formulated in terms of braided modules. We also discuss other ways to define Lie algebra-like objects related to quantum groups, in…
We study the skein algebras of surfaces associated to the exceptional Lie group $G_2,$ using Kuperberg webs. We identify two 2-variable polynomials, $P_n(x,y)$ and $Q_n(x,y),$ and use threading operations along knots to construct a family…
In this article, we realize skew-gentle algebras as skew-tiling algebras associated to admissible partial triangulations of punctured marked surfaces. Based on this, we establish a bijection between tagged permissible curves and certain…
We generalize Kauffman's famous formula defining the Jones polynomial of an oriented link in 3-space from his bracket and the writhe of an oriented diagram. Our generalization is an epimorphism between skein modules of tangles in compact…
We introduce operator-valued twisted Araki-Woods algebras. These are operator-valued versions of a class of second quantization algebras that includes $q$-Gaussian and $q$-Araki-Woods algebras and also generalize Shlyakhtenko's von Neumann…
We categorify the R-matrix isomorphism between tensor products of minuscule representations of U_q(sl(n)) by constructing an equivalence between the derived categories of coherent sheaves on the corresponding convolution products in the…
Okuyama introduced a family of polynomials, whose coefficients depend on a parameter $q$, in his study of correlators in the double-scaled SYK model. He verified in small cases that their coefficients can be expressed in terms of certain…
For skew-symmetric acyclic quantum cluster algebras, we express the quantum $F$-polynomials and the quantum cluster monomials in terms of Serre polynomials of quiver Grassmannians of rigid modules. As byproducts, we obtain the existence of…
In the lecture notes we start off with an introduction to the $q$-hypergeometric series, or basic hypergeometric series, and we derive some elementary summation and transformation results. Then the $q$-hypergeometric difference equation is…
In this paper we use the Hecke algebra of type $B$ to define a new algebra $\Sch$ which is an analogue of the q-Schur algebra. We construct Weyl modules for $\Sch$ and obtain, as factor modules, a family of irreducible $\Sch$-modules over…
We describe the module of integrable derivations in the sense of Hasse-Schmidt of the quotient of the polinomial ring in two variables over an ideal generated by the equation x^n-y^q.
If M is an oriented 3-manifold, let S(M) denote the Homflypt skein module of M. We show that S(M_1 connect sum M_2) is isomorphic to S(M_1) tensor S(M_2) modulo torsion. In fact, we show that S(M_1 connect sum M_2) is isomorphic to S(M_1)…
In this paper we will study properties of twisted Alexander polynomials of knots corresponding to metabelian representations. In particular we answer a question of Wada about the twisted Alexander polynomial associated to the tensor product…
We show that the Kauffman bracket skein module of a cylinder over the torus embeds as a subalgebra of the noncommutative torus. Using this we derive nice formulas for the Jones-Wenzl idempotents and analyze the structure of the Kauffman…
We establish, for every family of orthogonal polynomials in the $ q $-Askey scheme and the Askey scheme, a combinatorial model for mixed moments and coefficients in terms of paths on the lecture hall graph. This generalizes the previous…
Let $P,Q$ be standard parabolic subgroups of a $p$-adic reductive group $G$. We study the smooth dual of the filtration on a parabolically induced module arising from the geometric lemma associated to the cosets $P\setminus G/Q$. We prove…
It has been known since 2007 that the Wilson and Racah polynomials can be characterized as basis functions for irreducible representations of the quadratic symmetry algebra of the quantum superintegrable system on the 2-sphere,…
