We set up a cochain complex $C^\bullet_{\mathrm{mix}}(\mathcal{M})$ whose cohomology controls deformations of the mixed associator of a module category $\mathcal{M}$ over a $\Bbbk$-linear monoidal category $\mathcal{C}$. We show that…
We construct an action of the positive Witt algebra on the categorified quantum group associated to a simply-laced Lie algebra. In the type A case, we show that this action induces an action of the positive Witt algebra on…
We define a Fr\'echet topology on the space $C^\infty(X)[[\hbar]]$ of formal smooth functions on a symplectic manifold $X$, by constructing a sequence of semi-norms on it. For any star product $\star$ on $C^\infty(X)[[\hbar]]$ making it a…
Discrete quantum groups were introduced as duals of compact quantum groups by Podle\'s and Woronowicz in 1990. Shortly after, they were defined and studied intrinsically by Effros and Ruan, and by this author. In 1998, with the introduction…
We construct a relative version of the Crane-Yetter topological quantum field theory in four dimensions, from non-semisimple data. Our theory is defined relative to the classical $G$-gauge theory in five dimensions -- this latter theory…
We study the stabiliser formalism for qudits of arbitrary dimension $d$. In the free case, we show that the basic theorem of the stabiliser formalism remains valid: if the stabiliser subgroup $H$ is free as a $Z/dZ$-module and contains no…
Discrete quantum groups were introduced as duals of compact quantum groups by Podle\'s and Woronowicz in 1990. They have been studied intrinsically by Effros and Ruan (1994) and by the author (1996). In a more recent note (2025), we have…
We classify equivalence classes of Hopf algebra quotient pairs $(D,\theta)$ of the Drinfeld double $D(G)$ of a finite group scheme $G$ over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf{k}$ of characteristic $p\ge 0$, in terms of group…
We show that the Temperley--Lieb category $\mathbf{TL}(q;\mathbb{C})$ embeds in an ultraproduct of modular tensor categories when $q$ is not a root of unity. As a result, we show that its Drinfeld center is semisimple and describe its…
This paper examines the connections between (relative) Rota--Baxter groups, skew left braces, and enlargements of these structures on naturally associated semi-direct products. Given a skew left brace, we define a new skew left brace,…
We present a general framework for constructing quantum cellular automata (QCA) from topological quantum field theories (TQFT) and invertible subalgebras (ISA) using the cup-product formalism. This approach explicitly realizes all…
This paper develops an approach to categorical deformation quantization via factorization homology. We show that a quantization of the local coefficients for factorization homology is equivalent to consistent quantizations of its value on…
Let $\Sigma$ be a compact oriented 2-manifold (possibly with boundary), and let $\mathcal G_{\Sigma}$ be the linear span of free homotopy classes of closed oriented curves on $\Sigma$ equipped with the Goldman Lie bracket $[\cdot,…
We describe a method for quantization of Poisson Hopf algebras in $\mathbb Q$-linear symmetric monoidal categories. It is compatible with tensor products and can also be used to produce braided Hopf algebras. The main idea comes from the…
We formulate shifted affine iquantum groups of arbitrary quasi-split ADE types via Drinfeld presentations. We construct GKLO-type representations of shifted affine iquantum groups via algebras of difference operators, which allow us to…
We give criteria for when finitely generated local modules over a commutative algebra $A$ in the ind-completion $\widehat{\mathcal{C}}$ of a braided tensor category $\mathcal{C}$ inherit the structure of a (rigid, braided, ribbon) tensor…
We give the explicit formula of the universal $R$-matrix of a double parameter (or two-parameter, or multi-parameter) quantum affine algebra of type ${\mathrm{A}}_1^{(1)}$. For $N$ with $q_{00}q_{01}$ being a primitive $N$-th root of unity,…
We study universal solutions to reflection equations with a spectral parameter, so-called K-operators, within a general framework of universal K-matrices - an extended version of the approach introduced by Appel-Vlaar. Here, the input data…
We systematically study categorical duality operators on spin (and anyon) chains with respect to an internal fusion category symmetry C. We parameterize duality operators on the quasi-local algebra in terms of data dependent on the…
These notes are an introduction to the theory of quantum symmetries of finite and infinite sets, graphs, and locally compact spaces.
