We consider surgery moves along (n+1)-component Brunnian links in compact connected oriented 3-manifolds, where the framing of the each component is 1/k for k in Z. We show that no finite type invariant of degree < 2n-2 can detect such a…
The aim of this paper is to construct triassociative algebras (from operators), new actions and crossed modules from a given one, and to make the connexion between these notions on Leibniz algebras or triassociative algebras and the…
We discuss three problems related to connections on bimodules. These are left and right Leibniz rule for connections, left and right linearity of their curvatures and extension of connections to tensor products of modules.
Skein modules are the main objects of an algebraic topology based on knots (or position). In the same spirit as Leibniz we would call our approach "algebra situs." When looking at the panorama of skein modules we see, past the rolling hills…
We reformulate the Kanade-Russell conjecture modulo 9 via the vertex operators for the level 3 standard modules of type $D^{(3)}_{4}$. Along the same line, we arrive at three partition theorems which may be regarded as an $A^{(2)}_{4}$…
This is the third in our series of papers relating gauge theoretic invariants of certain 4-manifolds with invariants of 3-manifolds derived from Rohlin's theorem. Such relations are well-known in dimension three, starting with Casson's…
A theorem of Katanaga, Saeki, Teragaito, and Yamada relates Gluck and Price twists of 4-manifolds. Using trisection diagrams, we give a purely diagrammatic proof of this theorem, and answer a question of Kim and Miller.
We construct the skein category $\mathcal{S}$ of the annulus and show that it is equivalent to the affine Temperley-Lieb category of Graham and Lehrer. It leads to a skein theoretic description of the extended affine Temperley-Lieb…
In this paper we study the moduli space of 4-dimensional complex associative algebras. We use extensions to compute the moduli space, and then give a decomposition of this moduli space into strata consisting of complex projective orbifolds,…
Motivated by Strominger-Yau-Zaslow's mirror symmetry proposal and Kontsevich's homological mirror symmetry conjecture, we study mirror phenomena (in A-model) of certain results from Donaldson-Thomas theory for Calabi-Yau 4-folds.
For a link $L$ in the $3$-sphere, the $\pi$-orbifold group $G^\mathrm{orb}(L)$ is defined as a quotient of the link group $G(L)$ of $L$. When there exists an epimorphism $G^\mathrm{orb}(L)\to G^\mathrm{orb}(L')$ fitting into a certain…
In this paper, we introduce and study the notion of linkage of modules by reflexive homomorphisms. This notion unifies and generalizes several known concepts of linkage of modules and enables us to study the theory of linkage of modules…
We prove a version of the finiteness conjecture for Kauffman bracket skein modules of $3$-manifolds with boundary, which was introduced by the second author in \cite{Det21}. In particular our methods, which are constructive, give an…
To a compact oriented surface of genus at most one with boundary, we associate a quantized $K$-theoretic Coulomb branch in the sense of Braverman, Finkelberg, and Nakajima. In the case where the surface is a three- or four-holed sphere or a…
A combinatorial presentation of closed orientable 3-manifolds as bi-tricolored links is given together with two versions of a calculus via moves to manipulate bi-tricolored links without changing the represented manifold. That is, we…
In this paper, we study the category of trigroups as a generalization of the notion of digroup [4] and analyze their relationship with 3-racks [1] and Leibniz 3-algebras [6]. Trigroups are essentially associative trioids in which there are…
We construct super vertex operator algebras which lead to modules for moonshine relations connecting the four smaller sporadic simple Mathieu groups with distinguished mock modular forms. Starting with an orbifold of a free fermion theory,…
The slope conjecture gives a precise relation between the degree of the colored Jones polynomial of a knot and the boundary slopes of essential surfaces in the knot complement. In this note we propose a generalization of the slope…
It is well known that any three-manifold can be obtained by surgery on a framed link in $S^3$. Lickorish gave an elementary proof for the existence of the three-manifold invariants of Witten using a framed link description of the manifold…
In this work, we consider Lie algebras L containing a subalgebra isomorphic to sl3 and such that L decomposes as a module for that sl3 subalgebra into copies of the adjoint module, the natural 3-dimensional module and its dual, and the…
