Let $\bar{S}_2$ be the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields on $A_2=\mathbb{C}[t_1,t_2]$ with constant divergence.In this paper, we first show that each block $\Omega^{\widetilde{S}_2}_{\mathbf{a}}$ of the category of $(A_2,…

We classify semisimple module categories over the tensor category of representations of quantum SL(2) extending previous results to the roots of unity and positive characteristic cases.

In a companion work on the combinatorial quantization of 4d 2-Chern-Simons theory, the author has constructed the Hopf category of quantum 2-gauge transformations $\tilde{C}=\mathbb{U}_q\mathfrak{G}$ acting on the discrete surface-holonomy…

This work finishes a classification of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$-symmetries on the Laurent extension $\mathbb{C}_q\big[x^{\pm 1},y^{\pm 1}\big]$ of the quantum plane. After reproducing the partial results of a previous paper of the author…

We construct knot invariants categorifying the quantum knot variants for all representations of quantum groups. We show that these invariants coincide with previous invariants defined by Khovanov for sl_2 and sl_3 and by Mazorchuk-Stroppel…

Linear categories naturally have several identification relations : isomorphisms, categorical equivalences and Morita equivalences. In this thesis, we construct the classifying stacks for these three relations ($\ukcatiso$, $\ukcateq$,…

We establish the equivalence between $U(1)$ Chern-Simons and Reshetikhin-Turaev TQFTs associated with finite quadratic modules. For gauge group $U(1)$ and even level $k$, we prove that the corresponding Chern-Simons TQFT is naturally…

The theory of representations of a crossed module is a direct generalization of the theory of representations of groups. For a finite group G, the Drinfeld quantum double of the group G is a Hopf algebra that represents a special case of…

Following the general theory of categorified quantum groups developed by the author previously (arxiv:2304.07398), we construct the 2-Drinfel'd double associated to a finite group $N=G_0$. For $N=\mathbb{Z}_2$, we explicitly compute the…

We construct a four dimensional topological Quantum Field Theory from a modular tensor category. We complete the proof in the case of SU(2)q at a root of unity. Our construction may be important in the physical interpretation of the Chern…

This paper gives insight into intriguing connections between two apparently unrelated theories: the theory of skein modules of 3-manifolds and the theory of representations of groups into special linear groups of 2 by 2 matrices. Let R be a…

We compare the reduced Drinfeld doubles of the composition subalgebras of the category of representations of the Kronecker quiver $\overr{Q}$ and of the category of coherent sheaves on ${\mathbb P}^1$. Using this approach, we show that the…

We define for real $q$ a unital $*$-algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}))$ quantizing the universal enveloping $*$-algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})$. The $*$-algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}))$ is realized as a…

We provide a ribbon tensor equivalence between the representation category of small quantum SL(2), at parameter q=exp($\pi$ i/p), and the representation category of the triplet vertex operator algebra at integral parameter p>1. We provide…

In this article, we study the modular representations of the special linear group of degree two over a finite field in defining characteristic. In particular, we study the automorphisms of derived category of representations. We have been…

In this note we illustrate by a few examples the general principle: interesting algebras and representations defined over Z_+ come from category theory, and are best understood when their categorical origination has been discovered. We show…

We introduce Turaev bicategories and Turaev pseudofunctors. On the one hand, they generalize the notions of Turaev categories (and Turaev functors), introduced at the turn of the millennium and originally called "crossed group categories"…

In this note we consider the algebra $U_q(\hat{sl}_\infty)$ and we study the category O of its integrable representations. The main motivations are applications to quantum toroidal algebras, more precisely predictions of character formulae…

R. Kashaev and N. Reshetikhin introduced the notion of holonomy braiding extending V. Turaev's homotopy braiding to describe the behavior of cyclic representations of the unrestricted quantum group $U_qsl_2$ at root of unity. In this paper,…

The new class of integrable mappings and chains is introduced. Corresponding (1+2) integrable systems invariant with respect to such discrete transformations are represented in explicit form. Soliton like solutions of them are represented…
