Abstract

We study the free complexification operation for compact quantum groups, $G\to G^c$. We prove that, with suitable definitions, this induces a one-to-one correspondence between free orthogonal quantum groups of infinite level, and free unitary quantum groups satisfying $G=G^c$.

Relative braid group symmetries on modified iquantum groups and their modules

We present a comprehensive generalization of Lusztig's braid group symmetries for quasi-split iquantum groups. Specifically, we give 3 explicit rank one formulas for symmetries acting on integrable modules over a quasi-split iquantum group of arbitrary Kac-Moody type with general parameters. These symmetries are formulated in terms of idivided powers and iweights of the vectors being acted upon. We show that these symmetries are consistent with the relative braid group symmetries on iquantum groups, and they are also related to Lusztig's symmetries via quasi $K$-matrices. Furthermore, through appropriate rescaling, we obtain compatible symmetries for the integral forms of modified iquantum groups and their integrable modules. We verify that these symmetries satisfy the relative braid group relations.

Vertex operator algebra realizations of untwisted Haagerup--Izumi centers

For every odd integer $N\geq3$, we construct an untwisted Haagerup--Izumi fusion category $\mathcal H_N$ on the negative spherical branch and a simple, self-contragredient, regular, $C_2$-cofinite vertex operator algebra $E_N$ of central charge $-16N$, together with an equivalence of modular fusion categories: \[ \operatorname{Rep}(E_N)\simeq Z(\mathcal H_N). \] The VOA $E_N$ is rational, has exactly $N^2+3$ irreducible modules, and is lower bounded and integer graded, with least conformal degree $-(N-1)/2$. The proof begins with a CFT-type cyclic Virasoro extension of central charge $-5N$, whose regularity we establish. Two categorical condensations recover $\mathcal H_N$, and a finite extension by shifted lattice modules removes the auxiliary pointed factor. We identify the complete ribbon modular data of $Z(\mathcal H_N)$ with $\mathrm{MD}_{-}(\mathbb Z/N;\mathbb Z/(N^2+4),b\mapsto b^2/(N^2+4))$ in the notation of Gannon--Schopieray--Yadav, for every odd $N$.
