Abstract

Kang et al. provided a path realization of the crystal graph of a highest weight module over a quantum affine algebra, as certain semi-infinite tensor products of a single perfect crystal. In this paper, this result is generalized to give a realization of the tensor product of several highest weight modules. The underlying building blocks of the paths are finite tensor products of several perfect crystals. The motivation for this work is an interpretation of fermionic formulas, which arise from the combinatorics of Bethe Ansatz studies of solvable lattice models, as branching functions of affine Lie algebras. It is shown that the conditions for the tensor product theorem are satisfied for coherent families of crystals previously studied by Kang, Kashiwara and Misra, and the coherent family of crystals $\{B^{k,l}\}_{l\ge 1}$ of type $A_n^{(1)}$.

Brunnian braids and the inclusion from double shuffle Lie algebra to Kashiwara-Vergne Lie algebra

Schneps \cite{Schneps2012,Schneps2025} and Enriquez-Furusho \cite{EF4} proved that the double shuffle Lie algebra $\mathfrak{dmr}_0$ embeds into the Kashiwara--Vergne Lie algebra $\mathfrak{krv}_2$. We give a Brunnian braid interpretation of a related embedding into the symmetric Kashiwara--Vergne Lie algebra $\mathfrak{krv}_2^{\mathrm{sym}}$. More precisely, the map \[ φ\longmapsto \bigl(φ(-x_0-x_1,x_0),φ(-x_0-x_1,x_1)\bigr) \] defines an injective Lie algebra homomorphism from the subalgebra of $\mathfrak{dmr}_0$ satisfying the condition \[ [x_0,φ(-x_0-x_1,x_0)] +[x_1,φ(-x_0-x_1,x_1)]=0 \] into $\mathfrak{krv}_2^{\mathrm{sym}}$. The proof reformulate the double shuffle and symmetric Kashiwara--Vergne relations through abelianizations of Brunnian Lie algebras associated with the disk and punctured disks. We generalize this inclusion in two directions. First, replacing these abelianizations by higher lower central series quotients yields generalizations of relations and implications among them. Second, we establish explicit identities relating the linear pentagon defect to the stuffle coproduct, the divergence map, and the necklace cobracket.

A $q$-Weyl Freeness Principle for Nichols Algebras and Pointed Hopf Algebras of Square-Free Dimension

Let $H$ be a pointed Hopf algebra of square-free dimension over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. We prove that either $H$ is a group algebra or $\dim H/|\G(H)|=p$, and that in the latter case $H$ belongs to exactly one of two explicit families of rank-one pointed Hopf algebras. We develop a truncated $q$-Weyl freeness principle for finite-dimensional Nichols algebras of quandle type. If $V=\bigoplus_{x\in X}\K e_x$, $X'\subsetneq X$ is a nonempty subquandle, $V'=\bigoplus_{x\in X'}\K e_x$, and $s\in X\setminus X'$, then $\mathcal B(V)\simeq\K[e_s]/(e_s^{m_s})\otimes C_{s,X'}\otimes\mathcal B(V')$ for some graded vector space $C_{s,X'}$, where $m_s$ is the nilpotency order of $e_s$; in particular, $(m_s)_z\,\mathcal H_{\mathcal B(V')}(z)\mid\mathcal H_{\mathcal B(V)}(z)$. In the non-group case, this yields a $p^2$-divisibility obstruction that rules out noncentral support for the infinitesimal braiding. Together with a graded-dual argument, the resulting rank-one reduction forces the diagram of $H$ to have dimension $p$.
