On the representation theory of generalized small quantum groups

The small quantum groups u_q(g) are finite-dimensional quotients of quantum universal enveloping algebras U_q(g) at a root of unity q for g a semisimple complex Lie algebra. After the work of Lusztig,...

Graph cohomologies, matroids and colorings.

A celebrated result in graph theory links the chromatic polynomial of a graph to the Tutte polynomial of the associated graphic matroid. In 2005, Helme-Guizon and Rong proved that the chromatic polyno...

Strong-weak symmetry and quantum modularity of resurgent topological strings

Quantizing the mirror curve to a toric Calabi-Yau threefold gives rise to quantum operators whose fermionic spectral traces produce factorially divergent series in the Planck constant and its inverse....

Logarithmic Linear series

Linear series on smooth curves parametrize invertible sheaves together with linear subspaces of their global sections. This has been generalized to nodal curve of compact type by Eisebud-Harris and Os...

Irregular nearby cycles on the Betti side

Enhanced ind-sheaves describe the Betti side of the irregular Riemann-Hilbert correspondence, in a manner compatible with Grothendieck's operations. In this way, classical constructions on the de Rham...

Ext algebras from the contraction algebra

By the work of Donovan and Wemyss, the functor of noncommutative deformations of a flopping irreducible rational curve C in a threefold X is representable by an algebra called the contraction algebra....

Localizations of the categories of dg and of A∞ categories

I will report on a joint work with Mattia Ornaghi and Paolo Stellari, where we prove that, over an arbitrary commutative ring, the localizations with respect to quasi-equivalences of the categories of...

An introduction to the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism, I

In these lectures, I will review the Batalin–Vilkovisky formalism (and its cognates) in which the spaces of fields of a physical theory are presented as complexes whose cohomology returns the physical...
