We define canonical and $n$-canonical modules on a module-finite algebra over a Noether commutative ring and study their basic properties. Using $n$-canonical modules, we generalize a theorem on $(n,C)$-syzygy by Araya and Iima which…

We generalize the theory of base norm spaces to the complex case, and further to the noncommutative setting relevant to `quantum convexity'. In particular, we establish the duality between complex Archimedean order unit spaces and complex…

We study the canonical structure of the $SU(N)$ non-linear Sigma-model in a polynomial, first-order representation. The fundamental variables in this description are a non-Abelian vector field L_mu and a non-Abelian antisymmetric tensor…

In this paper, the singular Ringel-Hall algebra for a tame quiver is introduced and shown to be isomorphic to the positive part of the quantum extended Kac-Moody algebra. A PBW basis is constructed and a new class of perverse sheaves is…

This represents a talk given at the International Conference for Basic Science, July 2025. We review the theory of canonical bases of quantum groups and its relation with the theory of total positivity.

In our paper Semi-symmetric Algebras: General Constructions, J. Algebra, 148 (1992), pp. 479-496, we present the construction of the semi-symmetric algebra of a module over a commutative ring with unit, which generalizes the tensor algebra,…

We define a canonical quadratic pair on the Clifford algebra of an algebra with quadratic pair over a field. This allows us to extend to the characteristic 2 case the notion of trialitarian triples, from which we derive a characterization…

We identify a class of point-particle models that exhibit a target-space duality. This duality arises from a construction based on supersymmetric quantum mechanics with a non-vanishing central charge. Motivated by analogies to string…

Polypols are natural generalizations of polytopes, with boundaries given by nonlinear algebraic hypersurfaces. We describe polypols in the plane and in 3-space that admit a unique adjoint hypersurface and study them from an…

A method of constructing a canonical gauge invariant quantum formulation for a non-gauge classical theory depending on a set of parameters is advanced and then applied to the theory of closed bosonic string interacting with massive…

Given a monomial ideal in a polynomial ring over a field, we define the generalized Newton complementary dual of the given ideal. We show good properties of such duals including linear quotients and isomorphisms between the special fiber…

Let ${\mathbf U}^-_q$ be the negative part of the quantized enveloping algebra associated to a Kac-Moody algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ of symmetric type, and $\underline{\mathbf U}^-_q$ the algebra corresponding to the orbit algebra ${\mathfrak…

We advocate an account of dualities between physical theories: the basic idea is that dual theories are isomorphic representations of a common core. We defend and illustrate this account, which we call a Schema, in relation to symmetries.…

Let ${\mathbf U}^-_q$ be the negative part of the quantum enveloping algebra associated to a simply laced Kac-Moody Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$, and $\underline{\mathbf U}^-_q$ the algebra corresponding to the fixed point subalgebra of…

The pure spinor superfield formalism reveals that, in any dimension and with any amount of supersymmetry, one particular supermultiplet is distinguished from all others. This "canonical supermultiplet" is equipped with an additional…

We show that Hecke algebra of type B and a coideal subalgebra of the type A quantum group satisfy a double centralizer property, generalizing the Schur-Jimbo duality in type A. The quantum group of type A and its coideal subalgebra form a…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite dimensional complex simple classical Lie superalgebra and $A$ be a commutative, associative algebra with unity over $\mathbb{C}$. In this paper we define an integral form for the universal enveloping algebra…

The algebraic foundation of tropical polynomial algebra provides the framework for the geometric construction of the supplement and the reversal of tropical varieties, thereby inducing a duality of reduced tropical varieties; for classes of…

We introduce the notion of pre-weight structure on a triangulated category and study the corresponding pseudo-identities. We propose the notion of canonical derived equivalence between algebras that are not necessarily flat, which is…
