The homotopy algebraic formalism of braided noncommutative field theory is used to define the explicit example of braided electrodynamics, that is, $\mathsf{U}(1)$ gauge theory minimally coupled to a Dirac fermion. We construct the braided…
We study a physically motivated representation of an algebra of operators in gravitational and non gravitational theories called the covariant representation of an algebra. This is a representation where the symmetries of the operator…
We give two alternative proofs of the invariance of the Drinfeld pairing under the action of the braid group. One uses the Shapovalov form, and the other uses a characterization of the universal $R$-matrix.
A permutation group is innately transitive if it has a transitive minimal normal subgroup, which is referred to as a plinth. We study the class of finite, innately transitive permutation groups that can be embedded into wreath products in…
We introduce a common generalization of the L-R-smash product and twisted tensor product of algebras, under the name L-R-twisted tensor product of algebras. We investigate some properties of this new construction, for instance we prove a…
We study the second bounded cohomology of an amalgamated free product of groups, and an HNN extension of a group. As an application, we have a group with infinitely many ends has infinite dimensional second bounded cohomology.
This work presents an approach towards the representation theory of the braid groups $B_n$. We focus on finite-dimensional representations over the field of Laurent series which can be obtained from representations of infinitesimal braids,…
In this paper we define an associative stringy product for the twisted orbifold K-theory of a compact, almost complex orbifold X. This product is defined on the twisted K-theory of the inertia orbifold of X, where the twisting gerbe is…
In a previous paper we proved a result of the type "invariance under twisting" for Brzezinski's crossed products. In this paper we prove a converse of this result, obtaining thus a characterization of what we call equivalent crossed…
We define invariants of words in arbitrary groups, measuring how letters in a word are interleaving, perfectly detecting the dimension series of a group. These are the letter-braiding invariants. On free groups, braiding invariants coincide…
In past few decades, tensor algebra also known as multi-linear algebra has been developed and customized as a tool to be used for various engineering applications. In particular, with the help of a special form of tensor contracted product,…
By employing the external Kasparov product, Hawkins, Skalski, White and Zacharias constructed spectral triples on crossed product C$^\ast$-algebras by equicontinuous actions of discrete groups. They further raised the question for whether…
We construct a braided structure on the algebra of K\"ahler differential forms of a commutative algebra twisted by an endomorphism. This generalises the construction done in M. Karoubi, Quantum Methods in Algebraic Topology, see…
We discuss various aspects of "braid spaces'' or configuration spaces of unordered points on manifolds. First we describe how the homology of these spaces is affected by puncturing the underlying manifold, hence extending some results of…
We classify braided extensions $C$ of a rank $2$ fusion category. The result shows that $C$ is tensor equivalent to a Deligne's tensor product of some known categories, except $C$ is slightly degenerate and generated by a…
We initiate a general approach to the relative braid group symmetries on (universal) $\imath$quantum groups, arising from quantum symmetric pairs of arbitrary finite types, and their modules. Our approach is built on new intertwining…
A special class of braids, called woven, is introduced and it is shown that every conjugation class of the braid group contains woven braids. In consequence, links can be presented as plats or closures of woven braids. Restricting on knots,…
We re-examine various issues surrounding the definition of twisted quantum field theories on flat noncommutative spaces. We propose an interpretation based on nonlocal commutative field redefinitions which clarifies previously observed…
We prove that the system of Gromov-Witten invariants of the product of two varieties is equal to the tensor product of the systems of Gromov-Witten invariants of the two factors.
We introduce a nonsymmetric, associative tensor product among representations of Cuntz algebras by using embeddings. We show the decomposition formulae of tensor products for permutative representations explicitly We apply decomposition…
