Similar pictures appear in various branches of mathematics. Sometimes this similarity gives rise to deep theorems. Mentioning such a similarity between hexagonal tilings, cubes in 3-space, configurations of lines and braid groups, we prove…
We characterize group compactifications of discrete groups for which there exists an equivariant retraction onto the boundary. In particular, we prove an equivariant analogue of Brouwer's No-Retraction theorem for large classes of group…
We prove that Brauer's Height Zero Conjecture holds for p-blocks of finite groups with metacyclic defect groups. If the defect group is nonabelian and contains a cyclic maximal subgroup, we obtain the distribution into p-conjugate and…
This paper presents a unified framework for determining the congruences on a number of monoids and categories of transformations, diagrams, matrices and braids, and on all their ideals. The key theoretical advances present an iterative…
It is a classical result in representation theory that the braid group $\mathscr{B}_\mathfrak{g}$ of a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ acts on any integrable representation of $\mathfrak{g}$ via triple products of exponentials in its…
We define and study sl\_2-categorifications on abelian categories. We show in particular that there is a self-derived (even homotopy) equivalence categorifying the adjoint action of the simple reflection. We construct categorifications for…
A new class of associative algebras referred to as affine walled Brauer algebras are introduced. These algebras are free with infinite rank over a commutative ring containing 1. Then level two walled Brauer algebras over C are defined,…
We study the equivariant category associated to a finite group action on the derived category of coherent sheaves of a smooth projective variety. We discuss decompositions of the equivariant category and faithful actions, prove the…
We construct reflection functors for quiver Hecke algebras associated with arbitrary symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras, from a higher representation-theoretic viewpoint. These functors provide a categorification of Lusztig's braid group…
A natural question is to determine which algebraic stacks are qoutient stacks. In this paper we give some partial answers and relate it to the old question of whether, for a scheme X, the natural map from the Brauer goup (equivalence…
In this note, we provide a short and self-contained proof that the braid group on n strands acts transitively on the set of reduced factorizations of a Coxeter element in a Coxeter group of finite rank n into products of reflections. We…
We define the affine Frobenius Brauer categories associated to each symmetric involutive Frobenius superalgebra $A$. We then define an action of these categories on the categories of finite-dimensional supermodules for orthosymplectic Lie…
Khovanov and Thomas constructed a categorical action of the braid group $Br_n$ on the derived category $D(T^* Fl_n)$ of coherent sheaves on the cotangent bundle of the variety $Fl_n$ of the complete flags in $\mathbb{C}^n$. In this paper,…
The braid group action on the bosonic extension of the quantum group has been introduced in recent works, and it can be regarded as a generalization of Lusztig's symmetries on the quantum group. In this notes, we prove the faithfulness of…
For a smooth variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, to a differential 1-form $\alpha$ on the Frobenius twist $X^{(1)}$ one can associate an Azumaya algebra $\mathcal D_{X,\alpha}$, defined as a certain central…
We introduce a new class of partial actions of free groups on totally disconnected compact Hausdorff spaces, which we call convex subshifts. These serve as an abstract framework for the partial actions associated with finite separated…
We show that trivial extensions of gentle tree algebras are exactly Brauer tree algebras without exceptional vertex. We also give a characterization for the algebras whose trivial extensions are Brauer line/star/cycle algebras. As a…
We investigate the relation between the Garside normal form for positive braids and the $2$-braid group defined by Rouquier. Inspired by work of Brav and Thomas we show that the Garside normal form is encoded in the action of the $2$-braid…
We construct a genus one analogue of the theory of associators and the Grothendieck-Teichmueller group. The analogue of the Galois action on the profinite braid groups is an action of the arithmetic fundamental group of a moduli space of…
