The Hecke algebras for all symmetric groups taken together form a braided monoidal category that controls all quantum link invariants of type A and, by extension, the standard canon of topological quantum field theories in dimension 3 and…

The inclusion of the unit in a braided tensor category $\mathcal{V}$ induces a 1-morphism in the Morita 4-category of braided tensor categories $BrTens$. We give criteria for the dualizability of this morphism. When $\mathcal{V}$ is a…

We study certain monoidal subcategories (introduced by David Hernandez and Bernard Leclerc) of finite--dimensional representations of a quantum affine algebra of type $A$. We classify the set of prime representations in these subcategories…

We consider the derived category of permutation modules for a finite group, in positive characteristic. We stratify this tensor triangulated category using Brauer quotients. We describe the spectrum of its compact objects, by reducing the…

Global invertible symmetries act unitarily on local observables or states of a quantum system. In this note, we aim to generalise this statement to non-invertible symmetries by considering unitary actions of higher fusion category…

We initiate the systematic study of modular representations of symmetric groups that arise via the braiding in (symmetric) tensor categories over fields of positive characteristic. We determine what representations appear for certain…

This paper is a sequel to "Localization of $\frak{u}$-modules. I", hep-th/9411050. We are starting here the geometric study of the tensor category $\cal{C}$ associated with a quantum group (corresponding to a Cartan matrix of finite type)…

We give formulae for the multiplicities of eigenvalues of generalized rotation operators in terms of generalized Frobenius-Schur indicators in a semisimple spherical tensor category $\mathcal{C}$. In particular, this implies that the entire…

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…

We classify localising subcategories of the stable module category of a finite group that are closed under tensor product with simple (or, equivalently all) modules. One application is a proof of the telescope conjecture in this context.…

We study tensor structures on (Rep G)-module categories defined by actions of a compact quantum group G on unital C*-algebras. We show that having a tensor product which defines the module structure is equivalent to enriching the action of…

We show how to calculate the relative tensor product of bimodule categories (not necessarily invertible) using ladder string diagrams. As an illustrative example, we compute the Brauer-Picard ring for the fusion category…

We give a characterization of finite pointed tensor categories obtained as de-equivariantizations of finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras over abelian groups only in terms of the (cohomology class of the) associator of the pointed part.…

In this paper we propose, firstly, a categorification of virtual braid groups and groupoids in terms of "locally" braided objects in a symmetric category (SC), and, secondly, a definition of self-distributive structures (SDS) in an…

We apply the yoga of classical homotopy theory to classification problems of G-extensions of fusion and braided fusion categories, where G is a finite group. Namely, we reduce such problems to classification (up to homotopy) of maps from BG…

We show that a compact rigid balanced braided monoidal category with enough compact projective objects gives rise to a system of mapping class group representations compatible with the gluing along marked intervals. A motivation to consider…
