This thesis aims at concluding the classification results for topological phases with symmetry in 2+1 dimensions. The main result is that topological phases are classified by a triple of unitary braided fusion categories $\mathcal…

For groups of a topological origin, such as braid groups and mapping class groups, an important source of interesting and highly non-trivial representations is given by their actions on the twisted homology of associated spaces; these are…

We discuss free probability theory and free harmonic analysis from a categorical perspective. In order to do so, we extend first the set of analytic convolutions and operations and then show that the comonadic structure governing free…

In the present paper we prove decomposition formulae for the braided symmetric powers of simple modules over the quantized enveloping algebra $U_q(sl_2)$; natural quantum analogues of the classical symmetric powers of a module over a…

In the study of 2d (the space dimension) topological orders, it is well-known that bulk excitations are classified by unitary modular tensor categories. But these categories only describe the local observables on an open 2-disk in the long…

Braid Floer homology is an invariant of proper relative braid classes. Closed integral curves of 1-periodic Hamiltonian vector fields on the 2-disc may be regarded as braids. If the Braid Floer homology of associated proper relative braid…

Symmetry plays an important role in the topological band theory to remedy the eigenstates' gauge obstruction at the cost of a symmetry anomaly and zero-energy boundary modes. One can also make use of the symmetry to enumerate the…

Let $A$ be either a simplicial complex $K$ or a small category $\mathcal C$ with $V(A)$ as its set of vertices or objects. We define a twisted structure on $A$ with coefficients in a simplicial group $G$ as a function $$ \delta\colon…

Here we shall consider the topology and dynamics associated to a wide class of matchbox manifolds, including a large selection of tiling spaces and all minimal matchbox manifolds of dimension one. For such spaces we introduce topological…

Let H_T=C[T,T^{-1}] be the Hopf algebra of symmetries of a lattice of rank 1, or equivalently, H_T is the group algebra of a free Abelian group with one generator T. We construct conformal algebras, vertex Poisson algebras and vertex…

In this paper we study the problem of determining the homology groups of a quotient of a topological space by an action of a group. The method is to represent the original topological space as a homotopy limit of a diagram, and then act…

For a skew left brace $(G, \cdot, \circ)$, the map $\lambda : (G, \circ) \to \Aut \,(G, \cdot),~~a \mapsto \lambda_a,$ where $\lambda_a(b) = a^{-1} \cdot (a \circ b)$ for all $a, b \in G$, is a group homomorphism. Then $\lambda$ can also be…

In this paper, we introduce a symmetric continuous cohomology of topological groups. This is obtained by topologizing a recent construction due to Staic (J. Algebra 322 (2009), 1360-1378), where a symmetric cohomology of abstract groups is…

Floer theory was originally devised to estimate the number of 1-periodic orbits of Hamiltonian systems. In earlier works, we constructed Floer homology for homoclinic orbits on two dimensional manifolds using combinatorial techniques. In…

For almost finite groupoids, we study how their homology groups reflect dynamical properties of their topological full groups. It is shown that two clopen subsets of the unit space has the same class in H_0 if and only if there exists an…

We develop invariant theory for the quantum group ${\rm U}_q$ of $G_2$ at generic $q$ in the setting of braided symmetric algebras. Let ${\mathcal A}_m$ be the braided symmetric algebra over $m$-copies of the $7$-dimensional simple ${\rm…

We introduce the notion of a topological symmetry as a quantum mechanical symmetry involving a certain topological invariant. We obtain the underlying algebraic structure of the Z_2-graded uniform topological symmetries of type (1,1) and…

We construct membrane homology groups $\h(M)$ associated with each compact connected oriented smooth manifold, and show that $\h(M)$ is matrix graded algebra.

We prove sufficient conditions for Topological Quantum Order at both zero and finite temperatures. The crux of the proof hinges on the existence of low-dimensional Gauge-Like Symmetries (that notably extend and differ from standard local…

We present an explicit form of braided symmetries of the quantum spheres, by introducing a braided quantum Hopf algebra $\cU_{q, \phi}$ and demonstrating that they are braided Hopf modules over this braided Hopf algebra. To obtain this…
