A combinatorial Dyson-Schwinger equation, tree diagrams, and compositional inversion of a Laurent series
In "Tree hook length formulae, Feynman rules and B-series", Bradley Jones and Karen Yeats state on pg. 9:
Combinatorial Dyson-Schwinger equations are functional equations with solutions in

Weakly involutive $R$-matrices and representations of the symmetric group $S_N$ in restricted subspaces of $V^{\otimes N}$
An $R$-matrix is a matrix $R\in\operatorname{End}(V\otimes V)$ (where $V$ is a finite dimensional vector space) that solves the Yang–Baxter equation
$$R_{12}R_{23}R_{12}=R_{23}R_{12}R_{23},$$
where ...

How does the Tannaka duality work for weak Hopf algebras and fusion categories?
I'm a physicist and not yet an expert in fusion category. I've heard that it's possible to reconstruct a weak Hopf algebra from its category of representations, and would like to know how this works ...

Is there another quantum deformation of sl(2)?
By looking at defining relations of standard deformation of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$, which are:
$$
[E,F] = \frac{q^{H}-q^{-H}}{q-q^{-1}}, \quad [H,E] = 2E, \quad \text{ and } \quad [H,F] = -2F,
$$
some ...

Braided Hopf algebras and Quantum Field Theories
It is well-known, that there are a lot of applications of classical Hopf algebras in QFT, e.g. Connes-Kreimer renormalization, Birkhoff decomposition, Zimmermann formula, properties of Rota-Baxter ...

Compact Quantum Groups and FRT-Algebras
As is well known, every compact quantum group in the sense of Woronowicz has a dense Hopf $*$-sub-algebra. For the case of $q-SU(n)$ (among others) this Hopf $*$-sub-algebra is an FRT-algebra, which ...

Hopf Algebra for a physicist
Hello,
for my bachelor's thesis I need to understand the Hopf Algebra of Feynman Diagrams. As I have only litte knowledge in Algebra by now I wanted to ask where I could start and what preknowledge I ...

Connes-Kreimer Hopf algebra and cosmic Galois group
Hi,
I'm interested in the relation between the two following constructions motivated by renormalization:
Connes-Kreimer gives an interpretation of the renormalization procedure in the framework of ...
