We study representations of the quantum affine superalgebra associated with a general linear Lie superalgebra. In the spirit of Hernandez-Jimbo, we construct inductive systems of Kirillov-Reshetikhin modules based on a cyclicity result that…
A solution to the reflection equation associated to a coideal subalgebra of $U_q(A_{2n-1}^{(1)})$ of type AII in the symmetric tensor representations is presented. If parameters of the coideal subalgebra are suitably chosen, the $K$ matrix…
Generalizations of the q-Onsager algebra are introduced and studied. In one of the simplest case and q=1, the algebra reduces to the one proposed by Uglov-Ivanov. In the general case and $q\neq 1$, an explicit algebra homomorphism…
These are expanded and revised notes for a minicourse entitled "Affine W-algebras", which took place as part of the thematic month "Quantum Symmetries" at the Centre de Recherches Mathematiques in Montreal, Canada in October 2022. The first…
In general, quantum matrix algebras are associated with a couple of compatible braidings. A particular example of such an algebra is the so-called Reflection Equation algebra. In this paper we analyse its specific properties, which…
Two-particle scattering amplitudes for integrable relativistic quantum field theory in 1+1 dimensions can normally have at most singularities of poles and zeros along the imaginary axis in the complex rapidity plane. It has been supposed…
We study the structure and representations of a family of vertex algebras obtained from affine superalgebras by quantum reduction. As an application, we obtain in a unified way free field realizations and determinant formulas for all…
This paper presents a derivation of the possible residual symmetries of rational K-matrices which are invertible in the ''classical limit'' (the spectral parameter goes to infinity). This derivation uses only the boundary Yang-Baxter…
A quantum group analysis is applied to the Sine-Gordon model (or may be its version) in a strong-coupling regime. Infinitely many bound states are found together with the corresponding S-matrices. These new solutions of the Yang-Baxter…
We investigate the possible regular solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation for the vertex models associated to the D_{n+1}^(2) affine Lie algebra. We have classified them in terms of three types of K-matrices. The first one have n+2…
Generalizing our ideas in [arXiv:1006.3313], we explain how topologically-twisted N=2 gauge theory on a four-manifold with boundary, will allow us to furnish purely physical proofs of (i) the Atiyah-Floer conjecture, (ii) Munoz's theorem…
In order to understand the structure of the cohomologies involved in the study of projectively equivariant quantizations, we introduce a notion of affine representation of a Lie algebra.We show how it is related to linear representations…
In this article we present some probably unexpected (in our opinion) properties of representations of Yang-Mills algebras. We first show that any free Lie algebra with m generators is a quotient of the Yang-Mills algebra ym(n) on n…
The paper is devoted to real Hamiltonian forms of 2-dimensional Toda field theories related to exceptional simple Lie algebras, and to the spectral theory of the associated Lax operators. Real Hamiltonian forms are a special type of…
We compute the boundary scattering amplitudes of the breathers of the supersymmetric sine-Gordon model using the fusion of the soliton-antisoliton pair scattering with the boundary with a known result of the soliton boundary scattering…
This is a continuation of our "Lecture on Kac--Moody Lie algebras of the arithmetic type" \cite{25}. We consider hyperbolic (i.e. signature $(n,1)$) integral symmetric bilinear form $S:M\times M \to {\Bbb Z}$ (i.e. hyperbolic lattice),…
In this paper we define a quantum version of the ``fusion'' tensor product of two representations of an affine Kac-Moody algebra.It is replaced by what we call fusion action of the category of finite-dimensional representations of quantum…
There is renewed interest in the coideal subalgebras used to form quantum symmetric pairs because of recent discoveries showing that they play a fundamental role in the representation theory of quantized enveloping algebras. However, there…
We introduce a homomorphism from the quantum affine algebras $U_q(D^{(2)}_{n+1}), U_q(A^{(2)}_{2n}), U_q(C^{(1)}_{n})$ to the $n$-fold tensor product of the $q$-oscillator algebra ${\mathcal A}_q$. Their action commute with the solutions of…
We establish a multiplication formula for a tridiagonal standard basis element in the idempotented coideal subalgebras of quantum affine $\mathfrak{gl}_n$ arising from the geometry of affine partial flag varieties of type $C$. We apply this…
