Regular and higher regular graded algebras (in simplest case satisfying Von Neumann regularity $Θ_{1}Θ_{2}Θ_{1}=Θ_{1}$ instead of anticommutativity) are introduced and their properties are studied. They are described in terms of obstructed categories with nonclosed invertible and noninvertible morphisms for which generalized (obstructed) functors and natural transformations are given. Regular algebras and bialgebras are considered with examples. Corresponding regularizations of the cross product and Wick algebras are made.
We provide a new proof of the super duality equivalence between infinite-rank parabolic BGG categories of general linear Lie (super) algebras conjectured by Cheng and Wang and first proved by Cheng and Lam. We do this by establishing a new uniqueness theorem for tensor product categorifications motivated by work of Brundan, Losev, and Webster. Moreover we show that these BGG categories have Koszul graded lifts and super duality can be lifted to a graded equivalence.
Pairs of graded graphs, together with the Fomin property of graded graph duality, are rich combinatorial structures providing among other a framework for enumeration. The prototypical example is the one of the Young graded graph of integer partitions, allowing us to connect number of standard Young tableaux and numbers of permutations. Here, we use operads, that algebraic devices abstracting the notion of composition of combinatorial objects, to build pairs of graded graphs. For this, we first construct a pair of graded graphs where vertices are syntax trees, the elements of free nonsymmetric …
In this paper we prove a version of curved Koszul duality for Z/2Z-graded curved coalgebras and their coBar differential graded algebras. A curved version of the homological perturbation lemma is also obtained as a useful technical tool for studying curved (co)algebras and precomplexes. The results of Koszul duality can be applied to study the category of matrix factorizations MF(R,W). We show how Dyckerhoff's generating results fit into the framework of curved Koszul duality theory. This enables us to clarify the relationship between the Borel-Moore Hochschild homology of curved (co)algebras …
We discuss the notion of Poincaré duality for graded algebras and its connections with the Koszul duality for quadratic Koszul algebras. The relevance of the Poincaré duality is pointed out for the existence of twisted potentials associated to Koszul algebras as well as for the extraction of a good generalization of Lie algebras among the quadratic-linear algebras.
This paper introduces the category of marked curved Lie algebras with curved morphisms, equipping it with a closed model category structure. This model structure is---when working over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero---Quillen equivalent to a model category of pseudo-compact unital commutative differential graded algebras; this extends known results regarding the Koszul duality of unital commutative differential graded algebras and differential graded Lie algebras. As an application of the theory developed within this paper, algebraic deformation theory is extended to func…
We define generalized Koszul modules and rings and develop a generalized Koszul theory for $\mathbb{N}$-graded rings with the degree zero part noetherian semiperfect. This theory specializes to the classical Koszul theory for graded rings with degree zero part artinian semisimple developed by Beilinson-Ginzburg-Soergel and the ungraded Koszul theory for noetherian semiperfect rings developed by Green and Martin{é}z-Villa. Let $A$ be a left finite $\mathbb{N}$-graded ring generated in degree $1$ with $A_0$ noetherian semiperfect, $J$ be its graded Jacobson radical and $S=A/J$. By the Koszul dua…
The structure of filtered algebras of Grothendieck's differential operators of truncated polynomials in one variable and graded Poisson algebras of their principal symbols is explicitly determined. A related infinitesimal-birational duality realized by a Springer type resolution of singularities and the Fourier transformation is presented. This algebro-geometrical duality is quantized in appropriate sense and its quantum origin is explained.
This is the first in a series of papers that deals with duality statements such as Mukai-duality (T-duality, from algebraic geometry) and the Baum-Connes conjecture (from operator $K$-theory). These dualities are expressed in terms of categories of modules. In this paper, we develop a general framework needed to describe these dualities. In various geometric contexts, e.g. complex geometry, generalized complex geometry, and noncommutative geometry, the geometric structure is encoded in a certain differential graded algebra. We develop the module theory of such differential graded algebras in s…
Huang, Lepowsky and Zhang have developed a module theory for vertex operator algebras that endows suitably chosen module categories with the structure of braided monoidal categories. Included in the theory is a functor which assigns to discretely strongly graded modules a contragredient module, obtained as a gradewise dual. In this paper, we show that this gradewise dual endows the module category with the structure of a ribbon Grothendieck-Verdier category. This duality structure is more general than that of a rigid monoidal category; in contrast to rigidity, it naturally accommodates the fac…
Let $A$ be a $Z$-graded associative algebra and let $ρ$ be an irreducible $N$-graded representation of $A$ on $W$ with finite-dimensional homogeneous subspaces. Then it is proved that $ρ(\tilde{A})=gl_{J}(W)$, where $\tilde{A}$ is the completion of $A$ with respect to a certain topology and $gl_{J}(W)$ is the subalgebra of $\End W$, generated by homogeneous endomorphisms. It is also proved that an $N$-graded vector space $W$ with finite-dimensional homogeneous spaces is the only continuous irreducible $N$-graded $gl_{J}(W)$-module up to equivalence, where $gl_{J}(W)$ is considered as a topolog…
We consider the algebraic structure of $\mathbb{N}$-graded vertex operator algebras with conformal grading $V=\oplus_{n\geq 0} V_n$ and $\dim V_0\geq 1$. We prove several results along the lines that the vertex operators $Y(a, z)$ for $a$ in a Levi factor of the Leibniz algebra $V_1$ generate an affine Kac-Moody subVOA. If $V$ arises as a shift of a self-dual VOA of CFT-type, we show that $V_0$ has a `de Rham structure' with many of the properties of the de Rham cohomology of a complex connected manifold equipped with Poincaré duality.
Let $C$ be a differential graded coalgebra, $ \barΩC$ the Adams cobar construction and $C^\vee$ the dual algebra. We prove that for a large class of coalgebras $C$ there is a natural isomorphism of Gerstenhaber algebras between the Hochschild cohomologies $HH^\ast (C^\vee, C ^\vee)$ and $HH^\ast (\barΩC ; \barΩC)$. This result permits to describe a Hodge decomposition of the loop space homology of a closed oriented manifold, in the sense of Chas-Sullivan, when the field of coefficients is of characteristic zero.
Let $α$ be a quadratic Poisson bivector on a vector space $V$. Then one can also consider $α$ as a quadratic Poisson bivector on the vector space $V^*[1]$. Fixed a universal deformation quantization (prediction some weights to all Kontsevich graphs [K97]), we have deformation quantization of the both algebras $S(V^*)$ and $Λ(V)$. These are graded quadratic algebras, and therefore Koszul algebras. We prove that for some universal deformation quantization, independent on $α$, these two algebras are Koszul dual. We characterize some deformation quantizations for which this theorem is true in the …
We review some recent advances in modular representation theory of symmetric groups and related Hecke algebras. We discuss connections with Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras and gradings on the blocks of the group algebras $FΣ_n$, which these connections reveal; graded categorification and connections with quantum groups and crystal bases; modular branching rules and the Mullineaux map; graded cellular structure and graded Specht modules; cuspidal systems for affine KLR algebras and imaginary Schur-Weyl duality, which connects representation theory of these algebras to the usual Schur algebras …
We extend the theory of chiral and factorization algebras, developed for curves by Beilinson and Drinfeld in \cite{bd}, to higher-dimensional varieties. This extension entails the development of the homotopy theory of chiral and factorization structures, in a sense analogous to Quillen's homotopy theory of differential graded Lie algebras. We prove the equivalence of higher-dimensional chiral and factorization algebras by embedding factorization algebras into a larger category of chiral commutative coalgebras, then realizing this interrelation as a chiral form of Koszul duality. We apply these…
For a Dynkin quiver $Q$ of type ADE and a sum $β$ of simple roots, we construct a bimodule over the quantum loop algebra and the quiver Hecke algebra of the corresponding type via equivariant K-theory, imitating Ginzburg-Reshetikhin-Vasserot's geometric realization of the quantum affine Schur-Weyl duality. Our construction is based on Hernandez-Leclerc's isomorphism between a certain graded quiver variety and the space of representations of the quiver $Q$ of dimension vector $β$. We identify the functor induced from our bimodule with Kang-Kashiwara-Kim's generalized quantum affine Schur-Weyl d…
For a fixed finite group $Q$ and semi-simple finite dimensional algebra $S$, we examine an equivalence between strongly $Q$-graded algebras (extensions) with identity component $S$ and $S^1$-gerbes on action groupoids of $Q$ on the set of isomorphism classes of simple objects of the category of $S$-modules. This clarifies the nature of the map considered in arXiv:1312.7316. Motivated by this and arXiv:0909.3140(2) we suggest and study a notion of extensions suitable to the case when $S$ is replaced by a Hopf algebra, in the sense that there is a bijection between extensions with "fiber" $H$ an…
The quiver Hecke algebra $R$ can be also understood as a generalization of the affine Hecke algebra of type $A$ in the context of the quantum affine Schur-Weyl duality by the results of Kang, Kashiwara and Kim. On the other hand, it is well-known that the Auslander-Reiten(AR) quivers $Γ_Q$ of finite simply-laced types have a deep relation with the positive roots systems of the corresponding types. In this paper, we present explicit combinatorial descriptions for the AR-quivers $Γ_Q$ of finite type $A$. Using the combinatorial descriptions, we can investigate relations between finite dimensiona…
We consider the finite generation property for cohomology of a finite tensor category C, which requires that the self-extension algebra of the unit Ext*_C(1,1) is a finitely generated algebra and that, for each object V in C, the graded extension group Ext*_C(1,V) is a finitely generated module over the aforementioned algebra. We prove that this cohomological finiteness property is preserved under duality (with respect to exact module categories) and taking the Drinfeld center, under suitable restrictions on C. For example, the stated result holds when C is a braided tensor category of odd Fro…
We study generalised differential structures $Ω^1,d$ on an algebra $A$, where $A\tens A\to Ω^1$ given by $a\tens b\to a d b$ need not be surjective. The finite set case corresponds to quivers with embedded digraphs, the Hopf algebra left covariant case to pairs $(Λ^1,ω)$ where $Λ^1$ is a right module and $ω$ a right module map, and the Hopf algebra bicovariant case corresponds to morphisms $ω:A^+\to Λ^1$ in the category of right crossed (or Drinfeld-Radford-Yetter) modules over $A$. When $A=U(g)$ the generalised left-covariant differential structures are classified by cocycles $ω\in Z^1(g,Λ^1)…
For a Dynkin quiver $Q$ (of type ADE), we consider a central completion of the convolution algebra of the equivariant K-group of a certain Steinberg type graded quiver variety. We observe that it is affine quasi-hereditary and prove that its category of finite-dimensional modules is identified with a block of Hernandez-Leclerc's monoidal category $\mathcal{C}_Q$ of modules over the quantum loop algebra $U_q(L\mathfrak{g})$ via Nakajima's homomorphism. As an application, we show that Kang-Kashiwara-Kim's generalized quantum affine Schur-Weyl duality functor gives an equivalence between the cate…
In this note, we discuss the notion of symmetric self-duality of shaded planar algebras, which allows us to lift shadings on subfactor planar algebras to obtain Z/2Z-graded unitary fusion categories. This finishes the proof that there are unitary fusion categories with fusion graphs 4442 and 3333.
We prove that a connected commutator (or NC) complete associative algebra can be recovered in the derived setting from its abelianization together with its natural induced structure. Specifically, we prove an equivalence between connected derived commutator complete associative algebras and connected commutative algebras equipped with a coaction of the comonad arising from the adjunction between associative and commutative algebras. This provides a Koszul dual description of connected derived commutator (or NC) complete associative algebras and furthermore may be interpreted as a theory of rel…
