This set of lecture notes is an expanded version of a mini-course the author gave in March of 2025 for the program ``Representation Theory \& Noncommutative Geometry" at the Institut Henri Poincar\'e, Paris. The goal is to provide a survey…
We start the general structure theory of not necessarily semisimple finite tensor categories, generalizing the results in the semisimple case (i.e. for fusion categories), obtained recently in our joint work with D.Nikshych. In particular,…
This is a companion paper of arXiv:1901.09461, where different notions of dimension for triangulated categories are discussed. Here we compute dimensions for some examples of triangulated categories and thus illustrate and motivate material…
This is the third part in a series of papers developing a tensor product theory for modules for a vertex operator algebra. The goal of this theory is to construct a ``vertex tensor category'' structure on the category of modules for a…
We propose a unified mathematical framework for classifying phases of matter. The framework is based on different types of combinatorial structures with a notion of locality called lattices. A tensor lattice is a local prescription that…
We define the spectrum of a tensor triangulated category $K$ as the set of so-called prime ideals, endowed with a suitable topology. In this very generality, the spectrum is the universal space in which one can define supports for objects…
For a tensor triangulated category which is well generated in the sense of Neeman, it is shown that the collection of Bousfield classes forms a set. This set has a natural structure of a complete lattice which is then studied, using the…
This paper presents a new way of describing cross fields based on fourth order tensors. We prove that the new formulation is forming a linear space in $\mathbb{R}^9$. The algebraic structure of the tensors and their projections on…
These lecture notes explain the construction and basic properties of the wonderful compactification of a complex semisimple group of adjoint type. An appendix discusses the more general case of a semisimple symmetric space.
The aim of these lecture notes is, after having quickly described various compactifications of the Teichm\"{u}ller space of a compact connected oriented surface minus finitely many points, to give a construction, by the equivariant Gromov…
This is an extended abstract of my talk at the Oberwolfach-Workshop "Representation Theory of Finite-Dimensional Algebras" (19-24 January 2020). It introduces a geometric orbifold model for the bounded derived category of a skew-gentle…
Grothendieck first defined the notion of a "motif" as a way of finding a universal cohomology theory for algebraic varieties. Although this program has not been realized, Voevodsky has constructed a triangulated category of geometric…
We compute the tensor triangular spectrum of perfect complexes of filtered modules over a commutative ring, and deduce a classification of the thick tensor ideals. We give two proofs: one by reducing to perfect complexes of graded modules…
The Grassmann manifold of linear subspaces is important for the mathematical modelling of a multitude of applications, ranging from problems in machine learning, computer vision and image processing to low-rank matrix optimization problems,…
We present an overview of the notions of exact sequences of Hopf algebras and tensor categories and their connections. We also present some examples illustrating their main features; these include simple fusion categories and a natural…
This is the seventh part in a series of papers in which we introduce and develop a natural, general tensor category theory for suitable module categories for a vertex (operator) algebra. In this paper (Part VII), we give sufficient…
A pedagogical but concise overview of Riemannian geometry is provided, in the context of usage in physics. The emphasis is on defining and visualizing concepts and relationships between them, as well as listing common confusions,…
In this article, gentle algebras are realised as tiling algebras, which are associated to partial triangulations of unpunctured surfaces with marked points on the boundary. This notion of tiling algebras generalise the notion of Jacobian…
The purpose of these notes is to present a fairly complete proof of the classification Theorem for compact surfaces. Other presentations are often quite informal (see the references in Chapter V) and we have tried to be more rigorous. Our…
The paper consists of lecture notes for a mini-course given by the authors at the G\"okova Geometry \& Topology conference in May 2014. We start the exposition with tropical curves in the plane and their applications to problems in…
