We prove the deformation invariance of the quantum homogeneous spaces of the q-deformation of simply connected simple compact Lie groups over the Poisson-Lie quantum subgroups, in the equivariant KK-theory with respect to the translation…
We revisit the 3d GLSM computation of the equivariant quantum K-theory ring of the complex Grassmannian from the perspective of line defects. The 3d GLSM onto $X={\rm Gr}(N_c, n_f)$ is a circle compactification of the 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$…
We prove that the geometric Satake correspondence admits quantum corrections for minuscule Grassmannians of Dynkin types $A$ and $D$. We find, as a corollary, that the quantum connection of a spinor variety $OG(n,2n)$ can be obtained as the…
We compute the genus-0 permutation-equivariant quantum K-theory of Fermat singularities, in parallel with the Givental-Lee theory for projective varieties. We extend Givental-Tonita's formalism of adelic Lagrangian cones to the singularity…
We prove that the ideal of relations in the (equivariant) quantum K ring of a homogeneous space is generated by quantizations of each of the generators of the ideal in the classical (equivariant) K ring. This extends to quantum K theory a…
In this paper, we establish an analog of Dijkgraaf-Witten's theorem for $g=1$ invariants in permutation-equivariant quantum K-theory. This result generalizes the findings of \cite{Tang1} and \cite{Tang2}.
Quantum K-theory is a K-theoretic version of quantum cohomology, which was recently defined by Y.-P. Lee. Based on a presentation for the quantum K-theory of the classical flag variety Fl_n, we define and study quantum Grothendieck…
This is a review/announcement of results concerning the connection between certain exactly solvable two-dimensional models of statistical mechanics, namely loop models, and the equivariant $K$-theory of the cotangent bundle of the…
A K-theoretic counterpart of quantum cohomology theory is discussed.
Let $G_{n,k}$ denote the real Grassmann manifold of $k$-dimensional vector subspaces of $\mathbb R^n$. Using the Hodgkin spectral sequence, we compute the complex $K$-ring of $G_{n,k}$, up to a small indeterminacy, for all values of $n,k$…
This is a self-contained introduction to quantum Riemannian geometry based on quantum groups as frame groups, and its proposed role in quantum gravity. Much of the article is about the generalisation of classical Riemannian geometry that…
This work is devoted to the study of the foundations of quantum K-theory, a K-theoretic version of quantum cohomology theory. In particular, it gives a deformation of the ordinary K-ring K(X) of a smooth projective variety X, analogous to…
Let V be a vector space with a nondegenerate symmetric form and OG be the orthogonal Grassmannian which parametrizes maximal isotropic subspaces in V. We give a presentation for the (small) quantum cohomology ring QH^*(OG) and show that its…
For G a complex reductive group and X a smooth projective or convex quasi-projective polarized G-variety we construct a formal map in quantum K-theory from the equivariant quantum K-theory $QK^G(X)$ to the quantum K-theory of the git…
The quantum duality principle (QDP) for homogeneous spaces gives four recipes to obtain, from a quantum homogeneous space, a dual one, in the sense of Poisson duality. One of these recipes fails (for lack of the initial ingredient) when the…
This paper is devoted to study of differential calculi over quadratic algebras, which arise in the theory of quantum bounded symmetric domains. We prove that in the quantum case dimensions of the homogeneous components of the graded vector…
Let X=G/P be a homogeneous space and e_k be the class of a simple coroot in H_2(X). A theorem of Strickland shows that for almost all X, the variety of pointed lines of degree e_k, denoted Z_k(X), is again a homogeneous space. For these X…
We solve the spectrum of quantum spin chains based on representations of the Temperley-Lieb algebra associated with the quantum groups ${\cal U}% _{q}(X_{n})$ for $X_{n}=A_{1},$ $B_{n},$ $C_{n}$ and $D_{n}$. The tool is a modified version…
We associate an explicit equivalent descendent insertion to any relative insertion in quantum K-theory of Nakajima varieties. This also serves as an explicit formula for off-shell Bethe eigenfunctions for general quantum loop algebras…
We give an integral representation for solutions to the quantized Knizhnik- Zamolodchikov equation (qKZ) associated with the Lie algebra $gl_{N+1}$. Asymptotic solutions to qKZ are constructed. The leading term of an asymptotic solution is…
