A meander of order n is a simple closed curve in the plane which intersects a horizontal line transversely at 2n points. (Meanders which differ by an isotopy of the line and plane are considered equivalent.) Let Gamma_n be the Cayley graph…
We develop algebraic methods for computations with tensor data. We give 3 applications: extracting features that are invariant under the orthogonal symmetries in each of the modes, approximation of the tensor spectral norm, and…
The review of modern study of algebraic, geometric and differential properties of quaternionic (Q) numbers with their applications. Traditional and "tensor" formulation of Q-units with their possible representations are discussed and groups…
We study Milner's lambda-calculus with partial substitutions. Particularly, we show confluence on terms and metaterms, preservation of \b{eta}-strong normalisation and characterisation of strongly normalisable terms via an intersection…
Taking several statistical examples, in particular one involving a choice of experiment, as points of departure, and making symmetry assumptions, the link towards quantum theory developed in Helland (2005a,b) is surveyed and clarified. The…
We determine the representations of the Yokonuma-Temperley-Lieb algebra, which is defined as a quotient of the Yokonuma-Hecke algebra by generalising the construction of the classical Temperley-Lieb algebra. We then deduce the dimension of…
While every matrix admits a singular value decomposition, in which the terms are pairwise orthogonal in a strong sense, higher-order tensors typically do not admit such an orthogonal decomposition. Those that do have attracted attention…
Gauge-invariant polynomial functions of matrix and tensor variables capture combinatorial structures of gauge-string duality, which can be usefully organised using finite-dimensional associative algebras. I review recent work on eigenvalue…
In the context of the ring Q[x,y], of polynomials in 2n variables x=x1,...,x_n and y=y1,...,yn, we introduce the notion of diagonally quasi-symmetric polynomials. These, also called "diagonal Temperley-Lieb invariants", make possible the…
We extend the Framization of the Temperley-Lieb algebra to Coxeter systems of type $\mathtt{B}$. We first define a natural extension of the classical Temperley-Lieb algebra to Coxeter systems of type $\mathtt{B}$ and prove that such an…
We give a diagrammatic presentation of the A_2-Temperley-Lieb algebra. Generalizing Jones' notion of a planar algebra, we formulate an A_2-planar algebra motivated by Kuperberg's A_2-spider. This A_2-planar algebra contains a subfamily of…
We describe the cell structure of the affine Temperley-Lieb algebra with respect to a monomial basis. We construct a diagram calculus for this algebra.
We study the finite-dimensional simple modules, over an algebraically closed field, of the affine Temperley--Lieb algebra corresponding to the affine Weyl group of type $A$. These turn out to be closely related to the simple modules for a…
We investigate a subalgebra of the Temperley-Lieb algebra called the Jones-Wenzl algebra, which is obtained by action of certain Jones-Wenzl projectors. This algebra arises naturally in applications to conformal field theory and statistical…
This article presents a natural extension of the tensor algebra. In addition to "left multiplications" by vectors, we can consider "derivations" by covectors as basic operators on this extended algebra. These two types of operators satisfy…
This note addresses the meander enumeration problem: "Count all topologically inequivalent configurations of a closed planar non self-intersecting curve crossing a line through a given number of points". We review a description of meanders…
Construction of the diagrammatic version of the affine Temperley-Lieb algebra of type $\widetilde{A_N}$ as a subring of matrices over the Laurent polynomials is given. We move towards geometrical understanding of cellular structure of the…
We begin by introducing an algebraic structure with three constants and one ternary operation to which we call mobi algebra. This structure has been designed to capture the most relevant properties of the unit interval that are needed in…
In a recent article we introduced a mechanism for producing a presentation of the descent algebra of the symmetric group as a quiver with relations, the mechanism arising from a new construction of the descent algebra as a homomorphic image…
We study local algebras, which are structures similar to $\mathbb{Z}$-graded algebras concentrated in degrees $-1,0,1$, but without a product defined for pairs of elements at the same degree $\pm1$. To any triple consisting of a Kac-Moody…
