We consider the symplectic groupoid of pairs $(B,\mathbb{A})$ with $\mathbb A$ unipotent upper-triangular matrices and $B\in GL_n$ being such that $\widetilde {\mathbb A}=B{\mathbb A} B^{\text{T}}$ are also unipotent upper-triangular…
In earlier work, Chekhov and Fock have given a quantization of Teichm\"uller space as a Poisson manifold, and the current paper first surveys this material adding further mathematical and other detail, including the underlying geometric…
I. Penkov and V. Serganova have recently introduced, for any non-degenerate pairing $W\otimes V\to\mathbb C$ of vector spaces, the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}^M=\mathfrak{gl}^M(V,W)$ consisting of endomorphisms of $V$ whose duals preserve…
Let G be a Lie group endowed with a bi-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric. Then the moduli space of flat connections on a principal G-bundle, P\to \Sigma, over a compact oriented surface, \Sigma, carries a Poisson structure. If we…
We establish a genericity property in the representation theory of a flat family of finite-dimensional algebras in the sense of Cline-Parshal-Scott. More precisely, we show that the decomposition matrices as introduced by Geck and Rouquier…
We formulate a detailed conjectural Eichler-Shimura type formula for the cohomology of local systems on a Picard modular surface associated to the group of unitary similitudes $\mathrm{GU}(2,1,\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3}))$. The formula is based…
Let $S=S_{g,p}$ be a compact, orientable surface of genus $g$ with $p$ punctures and such that $d(S):=3g-3+p>0$. The mapping class group $\textup{Mod}_S$ acts properly discontinuously on the Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal T(S)$ of marked…
This paper develops a novel approach to functorial quantum field theories (FQFTs) in the context of Lorentzian geometry. The key challenge is that globally hyperbolic Lorentzian bordisms between two Cauchy surfaces cannot change the…
We continue our investigation on denominator conjecture of Fomin and Zelevinsky for cluster algebras via geometric models initialed in \cite{FG22}. In this paper, we confirm the denominator conjecture for cluster algebras of finite type.…
We establish a novel approach to computing $G$-equivariant cohomology for a finite group $G$, and demonstrate it in the case that $G = C_{p^n}$. For any commutative ring spectrum $R$, we prove a symmetric monoidal reconstruction theorem for…
The skein algebra of a marked surface, possibly with punctures, admits the basis of (tagged) bracelet elements constructed by Fock-Goncharov and Musiker-Schiffler-Williams. As a cluster algebra, it also admits the theta basis of…
In this note, we study Schwarz's conjecture on application of Q-algebras to strict quantization. We prove that in the case of a torus with a constant Poisson structure, Schwarz's formalism gives the same star product as Rieffel…
In this PhD thesis, we give a new geometric approach to higher Teichm\"uller theory. In particular we construct a geometric structure on surfaces, generalizing the complex structure, and we explore its link to Hitchin components. The…
We prove the quasimodularity of generating functions for counting torus covers, with and without Siegel-Veech weight. Our proof is based on analyzing decompositions of flat surfaces into horizontal cylinders. The quasimodularity arise as…
We study the decomposition of tensor products between a Steinberg module and a costandard module, both as a module for the algebraic group $G$ and when restricted to either a Frobenius kernel $G_r$ or a finite Chevalley group…
Let $\Sigma$ be a finite type surface, and $G$ a complex algebraic simple Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. The quantum moduli algebra of $(\Sigma,G)$ is a quantization of the ring of functions of $X_G(\Sigma)$, the variety of…
For a finite-type surface $\mathfrak{S}$, we study a preferred basis for the commutative algebra $\mathbb{C}[\mathscr{R}_{\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb{C})}(\mathfrak{S})]$ of regular functions on the $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb{C})$-character variety,…
Motivated by a recent conjecture by Hernandez and Leclerc [arXiv:0903.1452], we embed a Fomin-Zelevinsky cluster algebra [arXiv:math/0104151] into the Grothendieck ring R of the category of representations of quantum loop algebras U_q(Lg)…
We prove the decomposition conjecture of Leclerc and Thibon for the Schur algebra. We also give a new approach to the Lusztig conjecture for the dimension of the simple U(sl_k)-modules at roots of unity via canonical bases of the Hall…
For bordered surfaces S, we develop a complete parallel between the geometry of the combinatorial Teichm\"uller space $T_S^{comb}$ equipped with Kontsevich symplectic form $\omega_K$, and then the usual Weil-Petersson geometry of…
