We give a new proof of a slightly modified version of a result of Queffelec--Rose, by constructing a linear basis for the $\mathrm{SL}(n)$ skein algebra of the twice punctured sphere for any non-zero complex number $q$, excluding finitely…

We explain an elementary topological construction of the Springer representation on the homology of (topological) Springer fibers of types C and D in the case of nilpotent endomorphisms with two Jordan blocks. The Weyl group and component…

We study the classification of submodules of module categories over monoidal categories, extending ideas of Coulembier on the classification of tensor ideals in monoidal categories. We develop a framework that applies to module categories…

Let $\mathbb{S}_g$ be the orientable surface of genus $g$. We show that the number of vertex-labelled cubic multigraphs embeddable on $\mathbb{S}_g$ with $2n$ vertices is asymptotically $c_g n^{5(g-1)/2-1}\gamma^{2n}(2n)!$, where $\gamma$…

In this paper, we use skein-theoretic techniques to classify all virtual knot polynomials and trivalent graph invariants with certain smallness conditions. The first half of the paper classifies all virtual knot polynomials giving…

We give a classification of the graded simple modules of cyclotomic quiver Hecke algebras of type A using the diagram calculus of the diagrammatic Cherednik algebra. We also obtain a non-trivial lower bound for the dimension of the simple…

Revisiting Kra\'skiewicz and Pragacz's construction of Schubert modules, we provide a new proof that their characters are equal to Schubert polynomials. The main innovation is a representation-theoretic interpretation of a recurrence…

We give a complete classification of equivariant vector bundles of rank two over smooth complete toric surfaces and construct moduli spaces of such bundles. This note is a direct continuation of an earlier note where we developed a general…

We define a special version of the ultralimit, called the skewed ultralimit. Using this tool, we show that the set of ultrafilter types in the $C$-equivalence class of a Ramsey ultrafilter $\mathfrak u\in \beta\omega$ with the Rudin-Keisler…

For any field $k$, we give an algebraic description of the category $\mathrm{Perv}_\mathscr{S}(S^n (\mathbb{C}^2),k)$ of perverse sheaves on the $n$-fold symmetric product of the plane $S^n(\mathbb{C}^2)$ constructible with respect to its…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a small category. We investigate ringed sites $(\mathbf{C},\mathfrak{R})$ on $\mathcal{C}$ and the resulting module categories $\mathfrak{M}{\rm od}\text{-}\mathfrak{R}$. When $\mathcal{C}$ is finite, based on…

The Kauffman bracket skein modules, S(M,A), have been calculated for A=+1,-1, for all 3-manifolds M by relating them to the SL(2,C)-character varieties. We extend this description to the case when A is a 4-th root of 1 and M is either a…

Building further on work of Marin and Wagner, we give a cubic braid-type skein theory of the Links--Gould polynomial invariant of oriented links and prove that it can be used to evaluate any oriented link, adding this polynomial to the list…

The Benard-Conway invariant of links in the 3-sphere is a Casson-Lin type invariant defined by counting irreducible SU(2) representations of the link group with fixed meridional traces. For two-component links with linking number one, the…

We give a uniform interpretation of the classical continuous Chebyshev's and Hahn's orthogonal polynomials of discrete variable in terms of Feigin's Lie algebra gl(N), where N is any complex number. One can similarly interpret Chebyshev's…

This paper resolves the problem of comparing the skein modules defined using the skein relations discovered by R. Kirby and P. Melvin that underlie the Reshetikhin-Turaev model for $SU(2)$ Chern-Simons theory to the Kauffman bracket skein…

We investigate and characterize several kinds of elements such as units, idempotents, von Neumann regular, $\pi$-regular and clean elements for skew PBW extensions over weak compatible rings. We also study the notions of Gelfand and…

For each braided category $\mathcal{C}$ we show that, under mild hypotheses, there is an associated category of "half braided algebras" and their bimodules internal to $\mathcal{C}$ which is not only monoidal but even braided and balanced.…

We construct stable vector bundles on the space of symmetric forms of degree d in n+1 variables which are equivariant for the action of SL_{n+1}(C), and admit an equivariant free resolution of length 2. For n=1, we obtain new examples of…

In this paper we introduce the notion of admissible skein modules associated to an ideal in a pivotal category. We explain how these modules are generalizations of the Kauffman skein algebra and how they relate to renormalized quantum…
