Pseudo-dimensions of quantum Lie groups

One explanation: for small values of n one gets integer quantum dimensions because the fusion category associated with small n is either degenerate or at least has very few simple objects. Getting q …

Knot polynomials: Skein>Matrix>Group?

The Kauffman 2-variable knot polynomial probably can't be obtained from a quantum group if by this you mean the usual q-deformed universal enveloping algebras. If your two variables are $(r,q)$ and $ …

How does one relate the monodromy of the KZ equations with the WRT representation of the bra...

What I will say is just for quantum $SL(2)$ with $V$ being the 2-dimensional representation (or the analogous object in the representation category). Let us denote by $H$ the quantum group. For $q$ …

Existence of twisted metaplectic categories

In https://arxiv.org/pdf/2005.05544.pdf we describe a general procedure that accomplishes (1) and (2) which we call zesting. In this case, let $\mathcal{C}$ be an odd metaplectic category. In the nota …

Why is there such a close resemblance between the unitary representation theory of the Viras...

I think it is not a coincidence, although the only relationship I can think of is a bit distant. Roughly, it goes: From positive energy representations of affine Kac-Moody algebras one gets certain v …

An inner product that makes the R-matrix unitary

Actually if you take the usual R-matrix for type $A$ it is only unitary for the choice $q=1$! There seems to be some conflict between "local" braidings and unitarity (as Z. Wang and I will explain in …
