We study the density of the Burau representation from the perspective of a non-semisimple TQFT at a fourth root of unity. This gives a TQFT construction of Squier's Hermitian form on the Burau representation with possibly mixed signature.…

We construct two-dimensional non-commutative topological quantum field theories (TQFTs), one for each Hecke algebra corresponding to a finite Coxeter system. These TQFTs associate an invariant to each ciliated surface, which is a Laurent…

In [arXiv:1912.02063], we constructed 3-dimensional Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs) using not necessarily semisimple modular categories. Here, we study projective representations of mapping class groups of surfaces defined by…

For $n$ an even number, we study representations of the mapping class group of the $n$-punctured sphere arising from $\mathrm{SU}(2)$-TQFT when all punctures are colored by the same integer $N \geq 1$. We prove that the conjecture of…

Invariants of 3-manifolds from a non semi-simple category of modules over a version of quantum $sl(2)$ were obtained by the last three authors in arXiv:1202.3553 . They are invariants of $3$-manifolds together with a cohomology class which…

We compute the factorisation homology of the four-punctured sphere and punctured torus over the quantum group $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ explicitly as categories of equivariant modules using the framework of `Integrating Quantum…

We develop the general theory for the construction of Extended Topological Quantum Field Theories (ETQFTs) associated with the Costantino-Geer-Patureau quantum invariants of closed 3-manifolds. In order to do so, we introduce relative…

We endow a non-semisimple category of modules of unrolled quantum sl(2) with a Hermitian structure. We also prove that the TQFT constructed in arXiv:1202.3553 using this category is Hermitian. This gives rise to projective representations…

This paper contains three related groupings of results. First, we consider a new notion of an admissible skein module of a surface associated to an ideal in a (non-semisimple) pivotal category. Second, we introduce the notion of a chromatic…

We construct and study a new family of TQFTs based on nilpotent highest weight representations of quantum sl(2) at a root of unity indexed by generic complex numbers. This extends to cobordisms the non-semi-simple invariants defined in…

We give an explicit description of the $q$-deformation of symplectic group $SP_{q}(2n)$ at the $C^*$-algebra level and find all irreducible representations of this $C^{*}$-algebra. Further we describe the $C^*$-algebra of the quotient space…

We provide a homological model for a family of quantum representations of mapping class groups arising from non-semisimple TQFTs (Topological Quantum Field Theories). Our approach gives a new geometric point of view on these…

For each oriented surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g$ we study a limit of quantum representations of the mapping class group arising in TQFT derived from the Kauffman bracket. We determine that these representations converge in the Fell topology…

In this paper, we study punctured spheres in two dimensional ball quotient compactifications $(X, D)$. For example, we show that smooth toroidal compactifications of ball quotients cannot contain properly holomorphically embedded…

We adapt some of the methods of quantum Teichm\"uller theory to construct a family of representations of the pure braid group of the sphere.

We study irreducible representations of a class of quantum spheres, quotients of quantum symplectic spheres.

In this paper we construct a twisted version of quasi-elliptic cohomology. This theory can be constructed as a K-theory of a loop space. After establishing basic properties of the theory, including restriction, change-of-group and induction…

In this paper, we begin constructing a new finite-dimensional topological quantum field theory (TQFT) for three-manifolds, based on group PSL(2,C) and its action on a complex variable by fractional-linear transformations, by providing its…

The $\hat{Z}$ invariants of three-manifolds introduced by Gukov-Pei-Putrov-Vafa have influenced many areas of mathematics and physics. However, their TQFT structure remains poorly understood. In this work, we develop a framework of…

We solve the Riemann-Hilbert problem on the sphere topology for three singularities of finite strength and a fourth one infinitesimal, by determining perturbatively the Poincare' accessory parameters. In this way we compute the…
