In the first part of this paper, we implement the multiplier algebra of the dual of an algebraic quantum group (A,Delta) as a space of linear functionals on A. In the second part, we construct the universal corepresentation of (A,Delta) and…

We show that the Schur-Weyl type duality between $gl(1|1)$ and $GL_n$ gives a natural representation-theoretic setting for the relation between reduced and non-reduced Burau representations.

Let $G$ be a simply connected algebraic group of type $B,C$ or $D$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We construct a Springer correspondence for the dual vector space of the Lie algebra of $G$. In particular, we…

We prove the Strominger--Yau--Zaslow and topological mirror symmetries for parabolic Hitchin systems of types B and C. In contrast to type A, a geometric reinterpretation of Springer duality is necessary. Furthermore, unlike Hitchin's…

Given an orientable weakly self-dual manifold X of rank two, we build a geometric realization of the Lie algebra sl(6,C) as a naturally defined algebra L of endomorphisms of the space of differential forms of X. We provide an explicit…

We describe geometrically the classical and quantum inhomogeneous groups $G_0=(SL(2, \BbbC)\triangleright \BbbC^2)$ and $G_1=(SL(2, \BbbC)\triangleright \BbbC^2)\triangleright \BbbC$ by studying explicitly their shape algebras as a spaces…

The space of $n \times m$ complex matrices can be regarded as an algebraic variety on which the group ${\bf GL}_n \times {\bf GL}_m$ acts. There is a rich interaction between geometry and representation theory in this example. In an…

We construct, by contraction of a suitable complex vector bundle, the Weil representation of the finite symplectic group $Sp(A)$. We give an explicit description of the space of all lagrangian subspaces, which we use to compute the cocycle…

Duality symmetries are discussed for non-linear gauge theories of (n-1)-th rank antisymmetric tensor fields in general even dimensions d=2n. When there are M field strengths and no scalar fields, the duality symmetry groups should be…

On a Fock space constructed from $mn$ free bosons and lattice ${\Bbb {Z}}^{mn}$, we give a level $n$ action of the quantum toroidal algebra $\mathscr {E}_m$ associated to $\mathfrak{gl}_m$, together with a level $m$ action of the quantum…

We introduce a duality construction for toric Landau-Ginzburg models, applicable to complete intersections in toric varieties via the sigma model / Landau-Ginzburg model correspondence. This construction is shown to reconstruct those of…

We study relations between the deformed cotangent bundle (T*B)_q for the Borel subgroup B of a given simple Lie group G, the quantum Lie algebra J_q associated with the corresponding quantum group G_q and the matrices generating…

The classical Stone duality associates to each Boolean algebra a topological space consisting of ultrafilters. Lawson's generalisation constructs a dual equivalence of categories of Boolean inverse $\land$-semigroups and Hausdorff ample…

A way of covariantizing duality symmetric actions is proposed. As examples considered are a manifestly space-time invariant duality--symmetric action for abelian gauge fields coupled to axion-dilaton fields and gravity in D=4, and a…

Let G be a Lie group, $T^*G$ its cotangent bundle with its natural Lie group structure obtained by performing a left trivialization of T^*G and endowing the resulting trivial bundle with the semi-direct product, using the coadjoint action…

We consider two families of commuting Hamiltonians on the cotangent bundle of the group GL(n,C), and show that upon an appropriate single symplectic reduction they descend to the spectral invariants of the hyperbolic Sutherland and of the…

This is a generalization of the classic work of Beilinson, Lusztig and MacPherson. In this paper (and an Appendix) we show that the quantum algebras obtained via a BLM-type stabilization procedure in the setting of partial flag varieties of…

We obtain Schur-Weyl dualities in which the algebras, acting on both sides, are semigroup algebras of various symmetric inverse semigroups and their deformations.

Gelfand duality between unital commutative C*-algebras and Compact Hausdorff spaces is extended to all unital C*-algebras, where the dual objects are what we call compact Hausdorff quantum spaces. We apply this result to obtain, a…

We give a combinatorial description of the Springer correspondence for classical Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ of type $B,C$ or $D$ and their duals $\mathfrak{g}^*$ in characteristic 2. The combinatorics used here is of the same kind as those…
