Abstract

For any finite-dimensional factorizable ribbon Hopf algebra H and any ribbon automorphism omega of H, we establish the existence of the following structure: an H-bimodule F_omega and a bimodule morphism Z_omega from Lyubashenko's Hopf algebra object K for the bimodule category to F_omega. This morphism is invariant under the natural action of the mapping class group of the one-punctured torus on the space of bimodule morphisms from K to F_omega. We further show that the bimodule F_omega can be endowed with a natural structure of a commutative symmetric Frobenius algebra in the monoidal category of H-bimodules, and that it is a special Frobenius algebra iff H is semisimple. The bimodules K and F_omega can both be characterized as coends of suitable bifunctors. The morphism Z_omega is obtained by applying a monodromy operation to the coproduct of F_omega; a similar construction for the product of F_omega exists as well. Our results are motivated by the quest to understand the bulk state space and the bulk partition function in two-dimensional conformal field theories with chiral algebras that are not necessarily semisimple.

Nodal degeneration of chiral algebras II: Local structure and chiral Zhu algebras

Given a universal factorization algebra $\mathcal{A}$, we constructed in our previous paper a derived associative algebra $\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}^0$, together with chiral modules $\\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}^+$ and $\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}^-$ associated to a puncture, and a chiral bimodule $\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}$ associated to a node. Furthermore, these constructions assemble to a factorization $\mathcal{A}$-module over any family of nodal punctured curves. In this paper, we show that in the case where $\mathcal{A}$ is constructed from a quasi-conformal vertex algebra $V$, the zeroth homology algebra $H^0\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}$ is naturally isomorphic to Zhu's associative algebra $A(V)$, and we identify $H^0\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}$ with the bimodule underlying the mode-transition algebra of Damiolini-Gibney-Krashen. We also give an explicit description of the smoothing module $H^0\tilde{\mathfrak{Z}}_{\mathcal{C}}$ which describes the deformation of $H^0\mathfrak{Z}_{\mathcal{A}}$ which we attach to a smoothing family of a nodal curve. We therefore get a geometric interpretation of the Zhu algebra and the mode-transition algebra, as the integration of a factorization algebra over a certain compactification of configuration spaces of punctured nodal curves.

Braided Hopf algebroids and Lie algebroids

We construct braided Hopf algebroids in a braided monoidal category over a field $k$ and study its properties using graphical representation. Then we study Ehresmann-Schauenburg Hopf algebroids assocaited to braided Hopf Galois extensions. We introduce braided Lie-Rinehart algebras which generalize the definition in \cite{ALP24, ALP23, ALP25} and study its universal enveloping algebra under symmetric condition. In particular, we introduce Lie-Rinehart algebras (braided Lie-algebroids) associated with braided Hopf algebroids in the category of the module of a triangular Hopf algebra. We then focus on the case for braided Ehresmann-Schauenburg Hopf algebroids and study their right invariant vector fields, which turn out to be isomorphic to the $H$-equivariant vector fields on the quantum principal bundle (Hopf Galois extension) as Lie-Rinehart algebras. Finally, we introduce braided jet Hopf algebroids associate to braided Hopf algebroids in the case that the source and target subalgebra belong to the braided center. Moreover, we show there is a dual pairing between the $k$-order universal enveloping algebra of the braided right invariant vector fields and the $k$-th jet space of a braided Hopf algebroid and further more a skew pairing between the universal enveloping algebra of its braided right invariant vector fields and its jet Hopf algebroid under a finiteness condition.

Affine quantum Schur--Weyl duality

Let $\mathpzc K$ be an arbitrary commutative ring containing an invertible element $\varepsilon$. Let ${\mathcal H}_{\!\vartriangle\!}(r)_{\mathpzc K}$ be the extended affine Hecke algebra of type $A$ with Hecke parameter $\varepsilon$, let $Ω_{\mathpzc K}^{\otimes r}$ be the affine tensor space, and let ${\mathcal S}_{\!\vartriangle\!}(n,r)_{\mathpzc K}$ be the corresponding affine quantum Schur algebra. We first prove that the natural right action of ${\mathcal H}_{\!\vartriangle\!}(r)_{\mathpzc K}$ on $Ω_{\mathpzc K}^{\otimes r}$ is always faithful. Assume further that $\mathpzc K$ is a field of characteristic $0$ and that $\varepsilon$ is not a root of unity. We prove that, for any $n\geq 2$, the natural algebra homomorphism $ξ_r:{\mathcal H}_{\!\vartriangle\!}(r)_{\mathpzc K}\rightarrow\operatorname{End}_{{\mathcal S}_{\!\vartriangle\!}(n,r)_{\mathpzc K}}(Ω_{\mathpzc K}^{\otimes r})^{\mathrm{op}}$ is an isomorphism. This proves Conjecture~3.8.8 of \cite{DDF}. As an application, we prove the conjecture formulated in \cite[5.2.4]{DDF} concerning the center of the affine quantum Schur algebra. We also prove that ${\mathcal S}_{\!\vartriangle\!}(n,r)_{\mathpzc K}$ is left and right Noetherian whenever $\mathpzc K$ is a Noetherian commutative ring, which verify a conjecture in \cite[Rem. 1.7]{DY}.
