Characters of infinite-dimensional quantum classical groups: BCD cases

We study the character theory of inductive limits of [Formula: see text]-deformed classical compact groups. In particular, we clarify the relationship between the representation theory of Drinfeld–Jimbo quantized universal enveloping algebras and our previous work on the quantized characters. We also apply the character theory to construct Markov semigroups on unitary duals of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and their inductive limits.

Hodge decomposition of string topology

Let X be a simply connected closed oriented manifold of rationally elliptic homotopy type. We prove that the string topology bracket on the $S^1$ -equivariant homology $ {\overline {\text {H}}}_\ast ^{S^1}({\mathcal {L}} X,{\mathbb {Q}}) $ of the free loop space of X preserves the Hodge decomposition of $ {\overline {\text {H}}}_\ast ^{S^1}({\mathcal {L}} X,{\mathbb {Q}}) $ , making it a bigraded Lie algebra. We deduce this result from a general theorem on derived Poisson structures on the universal enveloping algebras of homologically nilpotent finite-dimensional DG Lie algebras. Our theorem settles a conjecture of [7].

Twisted deformations vs. cocycle deformations for quantum groups

In this paper, we study two deformation procedures for quantum groups: deformations by twists, that we call “comultiplication twisting”, as they modify the coalgebra structure, while keeping the algebra one — and deformations by [Formula: see text]-cocycle, that we call “multiplication twisting”, as they deform the algebra structure, but save the coalgebra one. We deal with quantized universal enveloping algebras (in short QUEAs), for which we accordingly consider those arising from twisted deformations (in short TwQUEAs) and those arising from [Formula: see text]-cocycle deformations, usually called multiparameter QUEAs (in short MpQUEAs). Up to technicalities, we show that the two deformation methods are equivalent, in that they eventually provide isomorphic outputs, which are deformations (of either kinds) of the “canonical”, well-known one-parameter QUEA by Jimbo and Lusztig. It follows that the two notions of TwQUEAs and of MpQUEAs — which, in Hopf algebra theoretical terms are naturally dual to each other — actually coincide; thus, that there exists in fact only one type of “pluriparametric deformation” for QUEAs. In particular, the link between the realization of any such QUEA as a MpQUEA and that as a TwQUEA is just a (very simple, and rather explicit) change of presentation.

On the Relationship between Jordan Algebras and Their Universal Enveloping Algebras

The relationship between JW-algebras (resp. JC-algebras) and their universal enveloping von Neumann algebras (resp. C ∗ -algebras) can be described as significant and influential. Examples of numerous relationships have been established. In this article, we established a relationship between the set of split faces of the state space (resp. normal states) of a JC-algebra (resp. a JW-algebra) and the set of split faces of the state space (resp. normal states) of its universal enveloping C ∗ -algebra (resp. von Neumann algebra), and we tied up this relationship with the correspondence between the classes of invariant faces, closed ideals, and central projections of these Jordan algebras and of their universal enveloping algebras.

PBW Property for Associative Universal Enveloping Algebras Over an Operad

Given a symmetric operad $\mathcal{P}$ and a $\mathcal{P}$-algebra $V$, the associative universal enveloping algebra ${\textsf{U}_{\mathcal{P}}}$ is an associative algebra whose category of modules is isomorphic to the abelian category of $V$-modules. We study the notion of PBW property for universal enveloping algebras over an operad. In case $\mathcal{P}$ is Koszul a criterion for the PBW property is found. A necessary condition on the Hilbert series for $\mathcal{P}$ is discovered. Moreover, given any symmetric operad $\mathcal{P}$, together with a Gröbner basis $G$, a condition is given in terms of the structure of the underlying trees associated with leading monomials of $G$, sufficient for the PBW property to hold. Examples are provided.
