Let $\mathcal P:=\mathcal P_{m\times n}$ denote the quantized coordinate ring of the space of $m\times n$ matrices, equipped with natural actions of the quantized enveloping algebras $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_m)$ and $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$. Let…

Suppose that A is a C*-algebra for which A is isomorphic to A tensor Z, where Z is the Jiang-Su algebra: a unital, simple, stably finite, separable, nuclear, infinite dimensional C*-algebra with the same Elliott invariant as the complex…

We develop the theory of $q$-characters for quantum affine superalgebras of type $A$ in connection with deformed Cartan matrices. To achieve this, we establish a Khoroshkin-Tolstoy-type multiplicative formula of the universal $R$-matrix of…

For generic $q$ we give expressions for the transformations of all essentially typical finite-dimensional modules of the Hopf superalgebra $U_q[gl(3/2)]$. The latter is a deformation of the universal enveloping algebra of the Lie…

We construct representations of a q-oscillator algebra by operators on Fock space on positive matrices. They emerge from a multiresolution scaling construction used in wavelet analysis. The representations of the Cuntz Algebra arising from…

We prove the existence of a Quillen Flat Model Structure in the category of unbounded complexes of h-unitary modules over a nonunital ring (or a $k$-algebra, with $k$ a field). This model structure provides a natural framework where a…

We present a new class of hermitian one-matrix models originated in the W-infinity algebra: more precisely, the polynomials defining the W-infinity generators in their fermionic bilinear form are shown to expand the orthogonal basis of a…

In this paper we study the algebra of quantum observables of the Chern-Simons matrix model which was originally proposed by Susskind and Polychronakos to describe electrons in fractional quantum Hall effects. We establish the commutation…

Let $G$ be a connected simply-connected simple complex algebraic group and $\mathfrak{g}$ the corresponding simple Lie algebra. In the first half of the present paper, we study the relation between the positive part $U_q(\mathfrak{n^+})$ of…

We study the matrix models $\pi:C(S_N^+)\to M_N(C(X))$ which are flat, in the sense that the standard generators of $C(S_N^+)$ are mapped to rank 1 projections. Our first result is a generalization of the Pauli matrix construction at $N=4$,…

For the quantum affine algebra $U_q(\hat{\mathfrak{g}})$ with $\mathfrak{g}$ of classical type, let $\chi_{\lambda/\mu,a}$ be the Jacobi-Trudi type determinant for the generating series of the (supposed) $q$-characters of the fundamental…

The centralizer algebra of a matrix consists of those matrices that commute with it. We investigate the basic representation-theoretic invariants of centralizer algebras, namely their radicals, projective indecomposable modules, injective…

We investigate the W-algebras generated by the integer dimension chiral primary operators of the SU(2)_0 WZNW model. These have a form almost identical to that found in the c=-2 model but have, in addition, an extended Kac-Moody structure.…

We define a natural quantum analogue for the ${\cal Z}$ algebra, and which we refer to as the ${\cal Z}_q$ algebra, by modding out the Heisenberg algebra from the quantum affine algebra $U_q(\hat{sl(2)})$ with level $k$. We discuss the…

We define categories $\mathcal{O}^w$ of representations of Borel subalgebras $\mathcal{U}_q\mathfrak{b}$ of quantum affine algebras $\mathcal{U}_q\hat{\mathfrak{g}}$, which come from the category $\mathcal{O}$ twisted by Weyl group elements…

We generalize the BRS method for the (finite-dimensional) quantum gauge theory involved in the zero modes of the monodromy extended SU(2) WZNW model. The generalization consists of a nilpotent operator Q such that $Q^h=0$ ($h=k+2=2,3,...$…

The structure positive of unitary irreducible representations of the noncompact $u_q(2,1)$ quantum algebra that are related to a positive discrete series is examined. With the aid of projection operators for the $su_q(2)$ subalgebra, a…

We study the universal integrable modules W_q(m) of level zero for quantum affine sl_2 and a family of maximal finite--dimensional quotients of these modules. We show that these all have dimension 2^m. Using this, we are able to realize…

We study a certain family of finite-dimensional simple representations over quantum affine superalgebras associated to general linear Lie superalgebras, the so-called fundamental representations: the denominators of rational $R$-matrices…

The canonical quantization of the WZNW model provides a complete set of exchange relations in the enlarged chiral state spaces that include the Gauss components of the monodromy matrices. Regarded as new dynamical variables, the elements of…
