Two remarks on decomposition numbers of standard modules for quantum affine $\mathfrak{sl}_2$

Abstract

We use Nakajima's geometric approach to representations of quantum affine algebras and recent results on explicit descriptions of specific canonical basis elements, to derive closed positive formulas for certain decomposition numbers of representations of quantum affine $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. Moreover, we obtain a piecewise-linear closed formula for the $q$-characters of irreducible representations of quantum affine $\mathfrak{sl}_2$.

Categorification of quasi-split iquantum groups

We introduce a new family of graded 2-categories generalizing the 2-quantum groups introduced by Khovanov, Lauda and Rouquier. We use them to categorify quasi-split iquantum groups in all symmetric types.

The Ring of Differential Operators on a Nodal Curve is not a Bialgebroid

In a previous article, we showed that local projectivity is a sufficient condition for the existence of a bialgebroid structure on the ring of differential operators on an affine variety. In this note, we show using elementary methods that the ring of differential operators on a nodal curve is neither locally projective nor does it admit a bialgebroid structure.

Coset representatives corresponding to Yetter-Drinfeld modules of modular group and continued fraction

We give complete conjugacy classes of modular group SL(2,Z). Particularly, the conjugacy classes of hyperbolic elements are decided by the proper equivalence classes of indefinite forms, and we give an example. Finally, we describe the coset representatives of centralizer of S, ST, T and hyperbolic elements of SL(2,Z) by regular continued fraction. In conclusion, most Nichols algebras over modular group are infinite-dimensional except Proposition 4.10.
