The affine Schur algebra $\widetilde{S}(n,r)$ (of type A) over a field $K$ is defined to be the endomorphism algebra of the tensor space over the extended affine Weyl group of type $A_{r-1}$. By the affine Schur-Weyl duality it is…

We study compactifications of Drinfeld half-spaces over a finite field. In particular, we construct a purely inseparable endomorphism of Drinfeld's half-space $\Omega (V)$ over a finite field $k$ that does not extend to an endomorphism of…

This paper aims to determine the images of the braid group under representations afforded by the Yang Baxter equation when the solution is a nontrivial $4 \times 4$ matrix. Making the assumption that all the eigenvalues of the Yang Baxter…

We discuss the classification of reflection subgroups of finite and affine Weyl groups from the point of view of their root systems. A short case free proof is given of the well known classification of the isomorphism classes of reflection…

In this paper, we first review the definition of the novel quantum affine algebra \(U_{\textbf{q}}(\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_2)\) of type \(A_{1}^{(1)}\) given in \cite{FHZ, HZhuang}. Furthermore, by introducing \(\Omega\)-invariant…

We investigate the braid group representations arising from categories of representations of twisted quantum doubles of finite groups. For these categories, we show that the resulting braid group representations always factor through finite…

Based on the realization of quantum Borcherds-Bozec algebra $\widetilde{\mathbf{U}}$ and quantum generalized Kac-Moody algebra ${}^B\widetilde{\mathbf{U}}$ via semi-derived Ringel-Hall algebra of a quiver with loops, we deduce the braid…

This article extends the works of Gon\c{c}alves, Guaschi, Ocampo [GGO] and Marin [MAR2] on finite subgroups of the quotients of generalized braid groups by the derived subgroup of their pure braid group. We get explicit criteria for…

We view the $\tilde{A}$-type affine braid group as a subgroup of the $B$-type braid group. We show that the $\tilde{A}$-type affine braid group surjects onto the $A$-type braid group and we detect the kernel of this surjection using…

In this paper, we study the representation theory of the small quantum group $\overline{U}_q$ and the small quasi-quantum group $\widetilde{U}_q$, where $q$ is a primitive $n$-th root of unity and $n>2$ is odd. All finite dimensional…

Obtaining a closed-form expression for the colored HOMFLY-PT polynomials of knots from $3$-strand braids carrying arbitrary $SU(N)$ representation is a challenging problem. In this paper, we confine our interest to twisted generalized…

Starting from considering deeper relationship between conjugacy classes and irreducible representations of a finite group $G$, we find some quite simple $R-$matrice defined by using finite groups. This construction produces many sets (or…

This work delves into the {\it quotient of an affine semigroup by a positive integer}, exploring its intricate properties and broader implications. We unveil an {\it associated tree} that serves as a valuable tool for further analysis.…

We associate a generalized root system in the sense of Kyoji Saito to an orbifold projective line via the derived category of finite dimensional representations of a certain bound quiver algebra. We generalize results by Saito--Takebayshi…

We show that the affine closure of T^*(SL_n/U) has symplectic singularities, in the sense of Beauville. In the special case n=3, we show that the affine closure of T^*(SL_3/U) is isomorphic to the closure of the minimal nilpotent adjoint…

The Drinfled realization of quantum affine algebras has been tremendously useful since its discovery. Combining techniques of Beck and Nakajima with our previous approach, we give a complete and conceptual proof of the Drinfeld realization…

We develop a new approach to the linear ordering of the braid group $B\_n$, based on investigating its restriction to the set $\Div(\Delta\_n^d)$ of all divisors of $\Delta\_n^d$ in the monoid $B\_\infty^+$, i.e., to positive $n$-braids…

We first review some invariant theoretic results about the finite subgroups of SU(2) in a quick algebraic way by using the McKay correspondence and quantum affine Cartan matrices. By the way it turns out that some parameters (a,b,h;p,q,r)…

It is known that the recently discovered representations of the Artin groups of type A_n, the braid groups, can be constructed via BMW algebras. We introduce similar algebras of type D_n and E_n which also lead to the newly found faithful…
