For a given finite dimensional Hopf algebra $H$ we describe the set of all equivalence classes of cocycle deformations of $H$ as an affine variety, using methods of geometric invariant theory. We show how our results specialize to the…

The general method of Reshetikhin and Turaev is followed to develop topological invariants of closed, connected, orientable 3-manifolds from a new class of algebras called pseudo-modular Hopf algebras. Pseudo-modular Hopf algebras are a…

We describe the action of the automorphism group of the complex cubic x^2+y^2+z^2-xyz-2 on the homology of its fibers. This action includes the action of the mapping class group of a punctured torus on the subvarieties of its SL(2,C)…

We give an analogue of the classical exponential map on Lie groups for Hopf $*$-algebras with differential calculus. The major difference with the classical case is the interpretation of the value of the exponential map, classically an…

We classify equivalence classes of Hopf algebra quotient pairs $(D,\theta)$ of the Drinfeld double $D(G)$ of a finite group scheme $G$ over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf{k}$ of characteristic $p\ge 0$, in terms of group…

We construct non-semisimple $2+1$-TQFTs yielding mapping class group representations in Lyubashenko's spaces. In order to do this, we first generalize Beliakova, Blanchet and Geer's logarithmic Hennings invariants based on quantum…

We extend our previous work arXiv:1012.5721 [hep-th] on the non-compact N=2 SCFT_2 defined as the supersymmetric SL(2,R)/U(1)-gauged WZW model. Starting from path-integral calculations of torus partition functions of both the axial-type…

We construct the positive principal series representations for $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{g}_\mathbb{R})$ where $\mathfrak{g}$ is of simply-laced type, parametrized by $\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}^r$ where $r$ is the rank of $\mathfrak{g}$. We…

It is shown that the finite dimensional irreducible representaions of the quantum matrix algebra $ M_{ q,p}(2) $ ( the coordinate ring of $ GL_{q,p}(2) $) exist only when both q and p are roots of unity. In this case th e space of states…

We construct explicitly the quantization of classical linear maps of $SL(2, R)$ on toroidal phase space, of arbitrary modulus, using the holomorphic (chiral) version of the metaplectic representation. We show that Finite Quantum Mechanics…

Using the fact that the algebra M := M_N(C) of NxN complex matrices can be considered as a reduced quantum plane, and that it is a module algebra for a finite dimensional Hopf algebra quotient H of U_q(sl(2)) when q is a root of unity, we…

In this paper we look at 3D lattice models that are generalizations of the state sum model used to define the Kuperberg invariant of 3-manifolds. The partition function is a scalar constructed as a tensor network where the building blocks…

Contracting the $h$-deformation of $\SL(2,\Real)$, we construct a new deformation of two dimensional Poincar\'e algebra, the algebra of functions on its group and its differential structure. It is also shown that the Hopf algebra is…

This paper is a short account of the construction of a new class of the infinite-dimensional representations of the quantum groups. The examples include finite-dimensional quantum groups $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$, Yangian $Y(\mathfrak{g})$ and…

In this paper, we study the tensor structure of category of finite dimensional representations of Drinfeld quantum doubles $D(H_n(q))$ of Taft Hopf algebras $H_n(q)$. Tensor product decomposition rules for all finite dimensional…

In this paper, we study the representation theory of Hopf-Ore extensions of group algebras and pointed Hopf algebras of rank one over an arbitrary field $k$. Let $H=kG(\chi, a,\d)$ be a Hopf-Ore extension of $kG$ and $H'$ a rank one…

We give alternative computations of the Schur multiplier of $Sp(2g,\mathbb Z/D\mathbb Z)$, when $D$ is divisible by 4 and $g\geq 4$: a first one using $K$-theory arguments based on the work of Barge and Lannes and a second one based on the…

For each $\ell\geq 1$ and $\lambda,\mu\in\Bbbk$, we study the representations of a family of pointed Hopf algebras $\mathcal{A}_{\lambda,\mu}$. These arise as Hopf cocycle deformations of the graded algebra $\mathcal{FK}_3\#\Bbbk…

We construct integral bases for the SO(3)-TQFT-modules of surfaces in genus one and two at roots of unity of prime order and show that the corresponding mapping class group representations preserve a unimodular Hermitian form over a ring of…

A simple connection between the universal $R$ matrix of $U_q(sl(2))$ (for spins $\demi$ and $J$) and the required form of the co-product action of the Hilbert space generators of the quantum group symmetry is put forward. This gives an…
