We prove that a haploid associative algebra in a $C^*$-tensor category $\mathcal{C}$ is equivalent to a Q-system (a special $C^*$-Frobenius algebra) in $\mathcal{C}$ if and only if it is rigid. This allows us to prove the unitarity of all…

We use a recent formalism of quantum geodesics in noncommutative geometry to construct geodesic flow on the infinite chain $\cdots\bullet$--$\bullet$--$\bullet\cdots$. We find that noncommutative effects due to the discretisation of the…

The stated skein algebra is a generalization of the Kauffman bracket skein algebra introduced in the study of quantum trace maps. When the quantum parameter is a root of unity, the stated skein algebra has a big center and is finitely…

Let $A$ be a CQG Hopf $*$-algebra, i.e. a Hopf $*$-algebra with a positive invariant state. Given a unital right coideal $*$-subalgebra $B$ of $A$, we provide conditions for the existence of a quasi-invariant integral on the stabilizer…

In this paper we study the computational feasibility of an algorithm to prove orbifold equivalence between potentials describing Landau-Ginzburg models. Through a comparison with leading results of Groebner basis computations in cryptology,…

For a quasi-split Satake diagram, we define a modified $q$-Weyl algebra, and show that there is an algebra homomorphism between it and the corresponding $\imath$quantum group. In other words, we provide a differential operator approach to…

Let $O_q[K]$ denote the quantized coordinate ring over the field $\mathbb{C}(q)$ of rational functions corresponding to a compact semisimple Lie group $K$, equipped with its *-structure. Let $A_0$ in $\mathbb{C}(q)$ denote the subring of…

We introduce analogues of the Fubini-Study metrics and the corresponding Levi-Civita connections on quantum projective spaces. We define the quantum metrics as two-tensors, symmetric in the appropriate sense, in terms of the differential…

We introduce an associative algebra $A^{\infty}(V)$ using infinite matrices with entries in a grading-restricted vertex algebra $V$ such that the associated graded space $Gr(W)=\coprod_{n\in \mathbb{N}}Gr_{n}(W)$ of a filtration of a…

We propose commuting set of matrix-valued difference operators in terms of the elliptic Baxter-Belavin $R$-matrix in the fundamental representation of ${\rm GL}_M$. In the scalar case $M=1$ these operators are the elliptic…

We define a triply-graded invariant of links in a genus g handlebody, generalizing the colored HOMFLYPT (co)homology of links in the 3-ball. Our main tools are the description of these links in terms of a subgroup of the classical braid…

We construct a Hopf superalgebra structure for a Drinfeld super Yangian of Lie superalgebra $B(m,n)$ relative to all possible choices of Borel subalgebras. In order to do this we introduce a simplified definition of Drinfeld super Yangians.

This is a brief introduction to link homology theories that categorify Reshetikhin--Turaev $\mathsf{SL}(N)$-quantum link invariants. A recently discovered surprising connection between finite state automata and Boolean TQFTs in dimension…

Given a finite modular tensor category, we associate with each compact surface with boundary a cochain complex in such a way that the mapping class group of the surface acts projectively on its cohomology groups. In degree zero, this action…

The $SL(2,\mathbb Z)$-symmetry of Cherednik's spherical double affine Hecke algebras in Macdonald theory includes a distinguished generator which acts as a discrete time evolution of Macdonald operators, which can also be interpreted as a…

Given a Hopf algebra $H$, Brzezi\'nski and Militaru have shown that each braided commutative Yetter-Drinfeld $H$-module algebra $A$ gives rise to an associative $A$-bialgebroid structure on the smash product algebra $A \sharp H$. They also…

In this survey article for the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics, 2nd Edition, I give an introduction to quantum character varieties and quantum character stacks, with an emphasis on the unification between four different approaches to…

This is a survey on pointed Hopf algebras with finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension and related aspects of the theory of infinite-dimensional Hopf algebras.

Applying the Fedosov connections constructed in our previous work, we find a (dense) subsheaf of smooth functions on a K\"ahler manifold $X$ which admits a non-formal deformation quantization. When $X$ is prequantizable and the Fedosov…

This paper continues with Part I. We define the module for a $\frac{\mathbb{Z}}{2}$-graded meromorphic open-string vertex algebra that is twisted by an involution and show that the axioms are sufficient to guarantee the convergence of…
