Braided groups and braided matrices are novel algebraic structures living in braided or quasitensor categories. As such they are a generalization of super-groups and super-matrices to the case of braid statistics. Here we construct braided…

For $\g=sl(n)$ we construct a two parametric $U_h(\g)$-invariant family of algebras, $(S\g)_{t,h}$, which defines a quantization of the function algebra $S\g$ on the coadjoint representation and in the parameter $t$ gives a quantization of…

A dimension formula was given in [1] in order to partially classify the Lie algebras of $S$-unitary type. The natural question of when $\mathfrak{u}_{S}$ and $\mathfrak{u}_{T}$ are isomorphic is left unanswered. In this article, we will…

A G-coloured knot is a knot together with a representation of its knot group onto G. Two G-coloured knots are said to be rho-equivalent if they are related by surgery around unit framed unknots in the kernels of their colourings. The…

This paper starts a systematic description of colored knot polynomials, beginning from the first non-(anti)symmetric representation R=[2,1]. The project involves several steps: (i) parametrization of big families of knots a la…

Motivated by work of Kinoshita and Teraska, Lamm introduced the notion of a symmetric union, which can be constructed from a partial knot $J$ by introducing additional crossings to a diagram of $J \# -\!J$ along its axis of symmetry. If…

A Fox p-colored knot $K$ in $S^3$ gives rise to a $p$-fold branched cover $M$ of $S^3$ along $K$. The pre-image of the knot $K$ under the covering map is a $\dfrac{p+1}{2}$-component link $L$ in $M$, and the set of pairwise linking numbers…

We consider knots equipped with a representation of their knot groups onto a dihedral group D_{2n} (where n is odd). To each such knot there corresponds a closed 3-manifold, the (irregular) dihedral branched covering space, with the…

We propose a spectral curve describing torus knots and links in the B-model. In particular, the application of the topological recursion to this curve generates all their colored HOMFLY invariants. The curve is obtained by exploiting the…

To a finite type knot invariant, a weight system can be associated, which is a function on chord diagrams satisfying so-called $4$-term relations. In the opposite direction, each weight system determines a finite type knot invariant. In…

It is known that knot homologies admit a physical description as spaces of open BPS states. We study operators and algebras acting on these spaces. This leads to a very rich story, which involves wall crossing phenomena, algebras of closed…

We study the properties of the extended graphical calculus for categorified quantum $sl(n)$. The main results include proofs of Reidemeister 2 and Reidemeister 3-like moves involving strands corresponding to arbitrary thicknesses and…

We construct an equivariant colored sl(N)-homology for links, which generalizes both the colored sl(N)-homology defined by the author and the equivariant sl(N)-homology defined by Krasner. The construction is a straightforward…

This work identifies the Reshetikhin-Turaev invariant of links in terms of a trace map on factorization homology. In particular, to recover the knot invariants associated to Chern-Simons theories, we construct a filtered…

Seidel-Smith and Manolescu constructed knot homology theories using symplectic fibrations whose total spaces were certain varieties of matrices. These knot homology theories were associated to $SL(n) $ and tensor products of the standard…

This is a review article in which we will introduce, in a unifying fashion and with more intermediate steps in some difficult calculations, two infinite-dimensional Lie algebras of quantum matrix models, one for the open string sector and…

Resolving a problem raised by Norin, we show that for each $k \in \mathbb{N}$, there exists an $f(k) \le 7k$ such that every graph $G$ with chromatic number at least $f(k)+1$ contains a subgraph $H$ with both connectivity and chromatic…

An elementary introduction to knot theory and its link to quantum field theory is presented with an intention to provide details of some basic calculations in the subject, which are not easily found in texts. Study of Chern-Simons theory…

The colored HOMFLY polynomial is the quantum invariant of oriented links in $S^3$ associated with irreducible representations of the quantum group $U_q(\mathrm{sl}_N)$. In this paper, using an approach to calculate quantum invariants of…

In this paper we construct a new basis for the cyclotomic completion of the center of the quantum $\mathfrak{gl}_N$ in terms of the interpolation Macdonald polynomials. Then we use a result of Okounkov to provide a dual basis with respect…
