We show that bounded type implies finite type for a constructible subcategory of the module category of a finitely generated algebra over a field, which is a variant of the first Brauer-Thrall conjecture. A full subcategory is constructible…

In these lectures we explain the intimate relationship between modular invariants in conformal field theory and braided subfactors in operator algebras. A subfactor with a braiding determines a matrix $Z$ which is obtained as a coupling…

This is a study of orbifold-quotients of quantum groups (quantum orbifolds $\Theta \rightrightarrows G_q$). These structures have been studied extensively in the case of the quantum $SU_2$ group. I will introduce a generalized mechanism…

Let G be a group and let A be the algebra of complex functions on G with finite support. The product in G gives rise to a coproduct on A making it a multiplier Hopf algebra. In fact, because there exist integrals, we get an algebraic…

It is proved that the entire multi-parameter (small-)quantum groups of symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras can be realized as certain subquotients of the cotensor Hopf algebras. This is an axiomatic construction. Hopf 2-cocycle deformations…

A brief introduction into bimodules of $II_1$-factors is presented. Furthermore a version of the following result due to M. Pimsner and S. Popa is derived: Let $N=M_{-1}\subset M=M_0 \subset M_1 \subset M_2 \subset \ldots$ denote the Jones…

We introduce twisted matrix factorizations for quantum complete intersections of codimension two. For such an algebra, we show that in a given dimension, almost all the indecomposable modules with bounded minimal projective resolutions…

If $G$ is a countable, discrete group generated by two finite subgroups $H$ and $K$ and $P$ is a II$_1$ factor with an outer G-action, one can construct the group-type subfactor $P^H \subset P \rtimes K$ introduced in \cite{BH}. This…

The concept of biperfect (noncocommutative) weak Hopf algebras is introduced and their properties are discussed. A new type of quasi-bicrossed products are constructed by means of weak Hopf skew-pairs of the weak Hopf algebras which are…

Double-bosonisation associates to a braided group in the category of modules of a quantum group, a new quantum group. We announce the semiclassical version of this inductive construction.

We call a subfactor trivial if it is isomorphic with the obvious inclusion of N into matrices over N. We prove the existence of type II_1 factors M without non-trivial finite index subfactors. Equivalently, every M-M-bimodule with finite…

We develop a general theory of `quantum' diffeomorphism groups based on the universal comeasuring quantum group $M(A)$ associated to an algebra $A$ and its various quotients. Explicit formulae are introduced for this construction, as well…

Finite dimensional irreducible modules of the two-parameter quantum enveloping algebra $U_{r,s}(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$ are explicitly constructed using the fusion procedure when $rs^{-1}$ is generic. This provides an alternative and…

The condition for double bicrosssum to be a braided Lie bialgebra is given. The result generalizes quantum double, bicrosssum, bicrosscosum, bisum. The quantum double of braided Lie bialgebras is constructed. The relation between double…

Given a II$_1$ factor $M$, a W$^*$-subalgebra $Q\subset M$ is {\it compressible} if for any $\varepsilon>0$ there exists a finite set of unitary elements $\Cal U_0\subset \Cal U(M)$ such that $\| \frac{1}{|\Cal U_0|}\sum_{u\in \Cal U_0}…

Let $U_q'(\mathfrak{g})$ be an arbitrary quantum affine algebra of either untwisted or twisted type, and let $\mathscr{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^0$ be its Hernandez-Leclerc category. We denote by $\mathsf{B}$ the braid group determined by the…

For a finite-index $\mathrm{II}_1$ subfactor $N \subset M$, we prove the existence of a universal Hopf $\ast$-algebra (or, a discrete quantum group in the analytic language) acting on $M$ in a trace-preserving fashion and fixing $N$…

The q-monopole bundle introduced previously is extended to a general construction for quantum group bundles with non-universal differential calculi. We show that the theory applies to several other classes of bundles as well, including…

This is the second part of the paper. Results of the first part about crossed modules are applied here to study of quantum groups in braided categories. Correct cross product in the class of quantum braided groups is built. Criterion when…

An inclusion of II$_1$ factors $N \subset M$ with finite Jones index gives rise to a powerful set of invariants that can be approached successfully in a number of different ways. We describe Jones' pictorial description of the standard…
