We propose a new non-commutative generalization of the representation variety and the character variety of a knot group. Our strategy is to reformulate the construction of the algebra of functions on the space of representations in terms of…

This is the first part of a series of two papers aiming to construct a categorification of the braiding on tensor products of Verma modules, and in particular of the Lawrence--Krammer--Bigelow representations. \\ In this part, we categorify…

For a quasitriangular C*-quantum group, we enrich the twisted tensor product constructed in the first part of this series to a monoidal structure on the category of its continuous coactions on C*-algebras. We define braided C*-quantum…

We consider an interesting class of braidings defined by a combinatorial property in an earlier paper. We show that it consists exactly of those braidings that come from certain Yetter-Drinfeld module structures over pointed Hopf algebras…

Much of algebra and representation theory can be formulated in the general framework of tensor categories. The aim of this paper is to further develop this theory for braided tensor categories. Several results are established that do not…

We consider the group algebra over the field of complex numbers of the Weyl group of type B (the hyperoctahedral group, or the group of signed permutations) and of the Weyl group of type D (the demihyperoctahedral group, or the group of…

We develop a general theory of `quantum' diffeomorphism groups based on the universal comeasuring quantum group $M(A)$ associated to an algebra $A$ and its various quotients. Explicit formulae are introduced for this construction, as well…

We review some important facts about the structure of tensor products of finite dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras. This is done from the elementary standpoint of the representation theory of semisimple Lie algebras in…

For q generic or a primitive l-th root of unity, q-Witt algebras are described by means of q-divided power algebras. The structure of the universal q-central extension of the q-Witt algebra, the q-Virasoro algebra, is also determined. q-Lie…

Fractional calculus and q-deformed Lie algebras are closely related. Both concepts expand the scope of standard Lie algebras to describe generalized symmetries. For the fractional harmonic oscillator, the corresponding q-number is derived.…

Using the tensor category theory developed by Lepowsky, Zhang and the second author, we construct a braided tensor category structure with a twist on a semisimple category of modules for an affine Lie algebra at an admissible level. We…

We study the unitarity and modularity of ribbon tensor categories derived from simple affine Lie algebras, via their associated quantum groups. Based on numerical calculations, and assuming two conjectures, we provide the complete picture…

A many variable $q$-calculus is introduced using the formalism of braided covector algebras. Its properties when certain of its deformation parameters are roots of unity are discussed in detail, and related to fractional supersymmetry. The…

Given a non-negative integer $q$, we study two different notions of the $q$-capability of Lie algebras via the non-abelian $q$-exterior product of Lie algebras. The first is related to the $q$-crossed modules and inner $q$-derivations, and…

Using the concept of mixable shuffles, we formulate explicitly the quantum quasi-shuffle product, as well as the subalgebra generated by primitive elements of the quantum quasi-shuffle bialgebra. We construct a braided coalgebra structure…

We introduce the notion of a generalized representation of a Jordan algebra with unit. The greneralized representation has the following properties: (1) Usual representations and Jacobson representations correspond to special cases of…

We demonstrate that the notions of derivative representation of a Lie algebra on a vector bundle, of semi-linear representations of a Lie group on a vector bundle, and related concepts, may be understood in terms of representations of Lie…

We develop the representation theory of shifted quantum affine algebras $\mathcal{U}_q^\mu(\hat{\mathfrak{g}})$ and of their truncations which appeared in the study of quantized K-theoretic Coulomb branches of 3d $N = 4$ SUSY quiver gauge…

We study homological representations of mapping class groups, including the braid groups. These arise from the twisted homology of certain configuration spaces, and come in many different flavours. Our goal is to give a unified general…

Quivers over a fixed base set form a monoidal category with tensor product given by pullback. The quantum Yang-Baxter equation, or more properly the braid equation, is investigated in this setting. A solution of the braid equation in this…
