When the theory of Leavitt path algebras was already quite advanced, it was discovered that some of the more difficult questions were susceptible to a new approach using topological groupoids. The main result that makes this possible is…

In two seminal papers M. Kontsevich introduced graph homology as a tool to compute the homology of three infinite dimensional Lie algebras, associated to the three operads `commutative,' `associative' and `Lie.' We generalize his theorem to…

With any integral lattice \Lambda in n-dimensional euclidean space we associate an elementary abelian 2-group I(\lambda) whose elements represent parts of the dual lattice that are similar to \Lambda. There are corresponding involutions on…

In this paper we completely characterize the graphs which have an edge weighted adjacency matrix belonging to the class of $n \times n$ involutions with spectrum equal to $\{ \lambda_1^{n-2}, \lambda_2^{2} \}$ for some $\lambda_1$ and some…

We examine spaces of connected tri-/univalent graphs subject to local relations which are motivated by the theory of Vassiliev invariants. It is shown that the behaviour of ladder-like subgraphs is strongly related to the parity of the…

Let k be a field of characteristic zero. We consider graded subalgebras A of k[x_1,...,x_m]/(x_1^2,...,x_m^2) generated by d linearly independant linear forms. Representations of matroids over k provide a natural description of the…

Nongraded infinite-dimensional Lie algebras appeared naturally in the theory of Hamiltonian operators, the theory of vertex algebras and their multi-variable analogues. They play important roles in mathematical physics. This survey article…

Relative self-linking and linking "numbers" for pairs of knots in oriented 3-manifolds are defined in terms of intersection invariants of immersed surfaces in 4-manifolds. The resulting concordance invariants generalize the usual…

We propose a new method of computing cohomology groups of spaces of knots in $\R^n$, $n \ge 3$, based on the topology of configuration spaces and two-connected graphs, and calculate all such classes of order $\le 3.$ As a byproduct we…

In quantum mechanics, associative algebras play an important role in understanding symmetries and operator algebras, providing new algebraic frameworks for describing physical systems. This work classifies associative algebras over a field…

We give an overview of some properties of Lie algebras generated by at most 5 extremal elements. In particular, for any finite graph {\Gamma} and any field K of characteristic not 2, we consider an algebraic variety X over K whose K-points…

We consider several algebras that arise in the study of the mapping class group (by means of topology and Hodge theory) and describe their symplectic-invariant parts in terms of algebras on trivalent graphs.

We introduce a family of $C^*$-correspondences $X_\alpha$ naturally associated to every ordinal graph $\Lambda$. When $\Lambda$ is a directed graph, $X_0$ is isomorphic to the usual $C^*$-correspondence associated to a graph. We show that…

We establish rigidity theorems for graph product von Neumann algebras $M_\Gamma=*_{v,\Gamma}M_v$ associated to finite simple graphs $\Gamma$ and families of tracial von Neumann algebras $(M_v)_{v\in\Gamma}$. We consider the following three…

Let X(G) denote the flag complex of a graph G=(V,E) on n vertices. We study relations between the first eigenvalues of successive higher Laplacians of X(G). One consequence is the following result: Let \lambda_2(G) denote the second…

In this work we will study the universal labeling algebra A(Gamma), a related algebra B(Gamma), and their behavior as invariants of layered graphs. We will introduce the notion of an upper vertex-like basis, which allows us to recover…

In an earlier paper, we introduced ``bordered knot algebras'', which are graded algebras indexed by a pair of integers (m,k). In a subsequent paper, we introduced a two-parameter family of differential graded algebra, the ``pong algebras'',…

Let $\Lambda$ be a Legendrian in the jet space of some manifold $X$. To a generating family presentation of $\Lambda$, we associate a constructible sheaf on $X \times \mathbb{R}$ whose singular support at infinity is $\Lambda$, and such…

Connection matrices were introduced by Freedman, Lovasz and Schrijver [1], who used them to characterize graph homomorphism functions. The goal of this note is to determine the exact rank of these matrices. The result can be rephrased in…

Given a finitely aligned $k$-graph $\Lambda$, we let $\Lambda^i$ denote the $(k-1)$-graph formed by removing all edges of degree $e_i$ from $\Lambda$. We show that the Toeplitz-Cuntz-Krieger algebra of $\Lambda$, denoted by…
