This is a survey paper based on my talk at the Workshop on Orbifolds and String Theory, the goal of which was to explain the role of groupoids and their classifying spaces as a foundation for the theory of orbifolds.
We generalize I. Frenkel's orbital theory for non twisted affine Lie algebras to the case of twisted affine Lie algebras using a character formula for certain non-connected compact Lie groups.
This work is devoted to elaboration on the idea to use block term decomposition for group data analysis and to raise the possibility of modelling group activity with (Lr, 1) and Tucker blocks. A new generalization of block tensor…
This is an introductory article on high dimensional knots for the beginners. High dimensional knot theory is an exciting field. It is a field of knot theory, which is one of topology and is connected with many ones. In this article we use…
We give an overview of differential cohomology from the point of view of algebraic topology. This includes a survey of several different definitions of differential cohomology groups, a discussion of differential characteristic classes, an…
The notion of twisted sectors play a crucial role in orbifold Gromov-Witten theory. We introduce the notion of dihedral twisted sectors in order to construct Lagrangian Floer theory on symplectic orbifolds and discuss related issues.
We develop a higher genus version of Drinfeld associators by means of operad theory. We start by introducing a framed version of rational associators and Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller groups and show that their definition is independent of the…
We introduce an orbifold induction procedure which provides a systematic construction of cyclic orbifolds, including their twisted sectors. The procedure gives counterparts in the orbifold theory of all the current-algebraic constructions…
This paper addresses the question of how categorical symmetries act on extended operators in quantum field theory. Building on recent results in two dimensions, we introduce higher tube categories and algebras associated to higher fusion…
The real theory of the Dunkl operators has been developed very extensively, while there still lacks the corresponding complex theory. In this paper we introduce the complex Dunkl operators for certain Coxeter groups. These complex Dunkl…
A few key issues of present and future explorations of the physics of top quarks at the Tevatron and LHC are discussed.
The current article continues our project on representation theory, Euler elements, causal homogeneous spaces and Algebraic Quantum Field Theory (AQFT). We call a pair (h,k) of Euler elements orthogonal if $e^{\pi i \ad h} k = -k$. We show…
Fractional Dehn twists give a measure of the difference between the relative isotopy class of a homeomorphism of a bordered surface and the Thurston representative of its free isotopy class. We show how to estimate and compute these…
By twisted quantum invariants we mean polynomial invariants of knots in the three-sphere endowed with a representation of the fundamental group into the automorphism group of a Hopf algebra $H$. These are obtained by the Reshetikhin-Turaev…
This paper develops the theory of distinguished regular supercuspidal representations, and it highlights how the correspondence between regular characters and regular supercuspidal representations resembles induction in certain ways.
Expanding products of invariant functions of a group element as a series in the basis of characters of the irreducible representations of a group is widely used in many areas of physics and related fields. In this contribution a formula to…
A series of recent papers by Bergfalk, Lupini and Panagiotopoulus developed the foundations of a field known as `definable algebraic topology,' in which classical cohomological invariants are enriched by viewing them as groups with a Polish…
An idea of Hopf's for applying complex analysis to the study of constant mean curvature spheres is generalized to cover a wider class of spheres, namely, those satisfying a Weingarten relation of a certain type, namely H = f(H^2-K) for some…
Even with the introduction of supercharacter theories, the representation theory of many unipotent groups remains mysterious. This paper constructs a family of supercharacter theories for normal pattern groups in a way that exhibit many of…
We give a presentation in terms of generators and relations of Hopf algebras generated by skew-primitive elements and abelian group of group-like elements with action given via characters. This class of pointed Hopf algebras has shown great…
