Hopf dual of the Hopf dual
Given any Hopf algebra $A$ over a field $k$, one can also define the Hopf dual $A^*$ of as follows: Let $A^∗$ be the subspace of the full linear dual of $A$ consisting of elements that vanish on some …

What is a tensor category?
A monoidal category is a well-defined categorical object abstracting products to the categorical setting. The term tensor category is also used, and seems to mean a monoidal category with more structu …

The tensor product of two monoidal categories
Given two monoidal categories $\mathcal{M}$ and $\mathcal{N}$, can one form their tensor product in a canonical way?
The motivation I am thinking of is two categories that are representation categor …

Young tableaux for exceptional Lie algebras
Irreducible representations for the $A$-series Lie algebras are labelled Young diagrams, with a basis of each given by Young tableaux. Moreover, analogues exist for the $B,C$, and $D$ series.

Branching from $E(6)$ to $SO(10) \times U(1)$
In $E(6)$ inspired models of supersymmetry, the inclusion of Lie subgroups
$$
SO(10) \times U(1) \hookrightarrow E_6
$$
is important object of interest. See here for my motivating example.
In partic …

Decomposing tensor powers of the fundamental representation of exceptional Lie algebras
For the $A$-series, tensor powers of the fundamental representation of $\frak{sl}_n$ decompose into irreducibles according to a certain Young diagram/ partition formula. This inspires, for example, th …
