Abstract

A cohomology theory of the adjoint of Hopf algebras, via deformations, is presented by means of diagrammatic techniques. Explicit calculations are provided in the cases of group algebras, function algebras on groups, and the bosonization of the super line. As applications, solutions to the YBE are given and quandle cocycles are constructed from groupoid cocycles.

On the Quantization-Dequantization Correspondence for (co)Poisson Hopf Algebras

In this paper, we construct a functorial quantization of (co)Poisson Hopf algebras within a broad categorical framework. We further introduce categories naturally associated with (co)Poisson Hopf algebras, namely Drinfeld-Yetter modules. These categories provide a canonical setting in which we define explicit dequantization functors that are inverse to the quantization functors. Using this framework, we also establish functorial (de)quantization results for the corresponding module categories. Finally, we recover the classical results of Etingof and Kazhdan as special cases of our construction and discuss applications to deformation quantization à la Tamarkin.

Higher Fomin-Kirillov algebras are infinite-dimensional

We show that the Fomin--Kirillov algebras $FK_n$ are infinite-dimensional for $n\geq6$. This answers a question posed by Fomin and Kirillov in 1997. To prove this, we demonstrate that the Nichols algebras supported on the conjugacy class of transpositions of the symmetric group are infinite-dimensional for both relevant 2-cocycles. For this, we develop a new method of partially semisimplifying a Nichols algebra along an automorphism of order $p$ in characteristic $p$.

Chiral Extensions of Cotangent Yangian

We construct chiral extensions of the cotangent Yangian using vertex algebroids. At zero level, the construction yields a vertex algebra with a compatible coproduct, whose Zhu reduction recovers the cotangent Yangian of Abedin and Niu. We also construct vertex algebra extensions at non-zero levels and study level-additive coproducts. The zero-level vertex algebra admits two natural quasi-conformal structures. We compute the corresponding sphere one-point conformal blocks and equip each block space with an associative product induced by the coproduct. For the first quasi-conformal structure, the blocks space can be identified with the dual of a certain Lie algebroid homology; for the second, we describe the block algebra and its classical limit in terms of mini-twistor geometry.
