Faculty of Mathematics at the National Research University Higher School of Economics FACULTY OF MATHEMATICS AT THE NATIONAL RESEARCH UNIVERSITY HIGHER SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS SECOND REPORT TO THE INTERNATIONAL ADVISORY BOARD APRIL 7, 2016 Approved by the Faculty of Mathematics Council 2 The Faculty of Mathematics at the National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE) has been established in 2008. In 2009, a roadmap for the development of the Faculty was developed. As a particular step of this roadmap, an International Advisory Board was created in 2012. Current members of the International Advisory Board, its mission statement and regulations are posted at the webpage https://math.hse.ru/en/experts. The same page contains the reports of the Faculty to the International Advisory Board as well as reports of the International Advisory Board to the university administration. According to its mission statement, the International Advisory Board conducts an expert evaluation of research and educational activities of the Faculty of Mathematics. An evaluation by the International Advisory Board addresses the following fields: 1) Curricula of educational programs offered by the Faculty. 2) Quality of the graduates (including the quality of the Bachelor, Master and PhD theses) 3) Research activity of the Faculty 4) Analysis of the hiring strategy of the Faculty 5) Analysis of the development plans of the Faculty and recommendations on making these plans The International Advisory Board reports to the HSE university government on the results of the Faculty attained in the reporting period. On November 28, 2012, we filed the first report to the International Advisory Board. This is the second report. It addresses the progress of the Faculty during the period of 2012-2015 in all fields indicated above. The following colleagues took part in compiling this report: Chris Brav Alexander Esterov Alexey Gorinov Yulij Ilyashenko Vera Kuznetsova Sergey Lando Ian Marshall Ekaterina Ostroverkhova Irina

    VOA[M4] Boris Feigin and Sergei Gukov Abstract. We take a peek at a general program that associates vertex (or, chiral) algebras to smooth 4-manifolds in such a way that operations on al- gebras mirror gluing operations on 4-manifolds and, furthermore, equivalent constructions of 4-manifolds give rise to equivalences (dualities) of the corre- sponding algebras. Contents 1. Introduction 1 2. Gluing via extensions: Toric M4 8 3. Operations and relations 16 4. Vertex algebras and trisections 25 5. Modules and knotted surfaces 30 6.

Introduction The main goal of this paper is to blaze new trails between topology and algebra, arXiv:1806.02470v2 [hep-th] 3 Feb 2020 in particular, topology of 4-manifolds and vertex operator algebra. While various connections between these two subjects emerged during the past 2-3 decades, the questions of prime interest in topology | that involve (cutting and gluing) surgery operations | remain, surprisingly, untouched. Similarly, from the algebra perspec- tive, many traditional connections to topology rely on algebraic structures used as an input, i.g. Frobenius algebras in the construction of 2d TQFTs or modular tensor categories in the construction of 3d TQFTs. More recent developments, however, suggest that such algebraic structures can themselves be topological invariants of manifolds, so that one can speak of VOA[M4] or MTC[M3]. Pointing a flashlight directly at these underappreciated aspects can potentially be very beneficial for the development of both subjects. Specifically, we describe a large class of vertex operator algebras (VOAs), each labeled by a choice of a 1 2 BORIS FEIGIN AND SERGEI GUKOV 1 smooth 4-manifold M4 and a root system g of ADE Cartan type.

For N>0let N be the Lie subalgebra of the Virasoro algebra, generated by L ;iL < N. There is a map from the Virasoro algebra i − to the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields on C∗,whichtakesLi to i+1 @ z− @z,wherez is a coordinate. This map identifies N with the Lie algebra of vector fields on C, which vanish at the originL along with the first N+1 derivatives. The Lie algebra 2N has a family of deformations (p ; :::; p ), which consist of vectorL fields, vanishing at the points L 1 N+1 pi C along with the first derivative. For∈ a Lie algebra g and a g module M we denote by H(g;M)the space of coinvariants (or 0th homology)− of g in M, which is the quotient M=g M,whereg M is the subspace of M, linearly spanned by vectors a x;· a g;x M·.

  • Zhu's Algebras, $ C 2 $-Algebras and Abelian Radicals
    ZHU’S ALGEBRAS, C2-ALGEBRAS AND ABELIAN RADICALS BORIS FEIGIN, EVGENY FEIGIN AND PETER LITTELMANN Abstract. This paper consists of three parts. In the first part we prove that Zhu’s and C2-algebras in type A have the same dimensions. In the second part we compute the graded decomposition of the C2-algebras in type A, thus proving the Gaberdiel-Gannon’s conjecture. Our main tool is the theory of abelian radicals, which we develop in the third part. Introduction The theory of vertex operator algebras plays a crucial role in the math- ematical description of the structures arising from the conformal field the- ories. In particular, the representation theory of VOAs allows one to study correlation functions, partition functions and fusion coefficients of various theories (see [BF], [LL], [K2]). The Zhu’s and C2-algebras are powerful tools in the representation theory of vertex operator algebras. Let V be a vertex operator algebra. In [Z] Zhu introduced certain associa- tive algebra A(V) attached to V, which turned out to be very important for the representation theory of V. In particular, the rationality of V is conjec- tured to be equivalent to finite-dimensionality and semi-simplicity of A(V). Moreover, for rational VOAs the representations of the vertex algebra and of the Zhu’s algebra are in one-to-one correspondence. There is another algebra (also introduced in [Z]) one can attach to V. This commutative (Poisson) algebra is called the C2-algebra and is de- V noted by A[2]( ) (we follow the notations from [GG], [GabGod]).

    "NOT EXACTLY CRAZY, SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL" I first met Israel Moiseevich Gelfand in Moscow State University in the winter of 1990-91 when V.I.Arnold asked me to pass a letter to Gelfand during his seminar. Gelfand kept asking me who I was for what seemed to me like half an hour, he couldn't hear what I was saying to him. Fifteen minutes later he couldn't understand what was said by the speaker at the seminar, not until everything was said in a clear, simple manner, so that the first grade student would be able to understand. The seminar, which was supposed to be a double feature with Kontsevich, explaining his proof of Witten's conjecture, and Vassiliev, explaining his construction of knot invariants, all within a couple of hours, fell short of its goal. Indeed, Vitya Vassiliev got stopped at the definition of a knot, while Maxim Kontsevich barely covered the combinatorial model of the Deligne-Mumford space by the cells defined using the Strebel diferentials. Needless to say, the magic of the surrealistic show instantly won me over. One of the outcomes of that particular seminar was that Gelfand practically ordered Boris Feigin and Sasha Beilinson, who were present, to give a series of lectures, one on the models of statistical physics, and another on the moduli spaces and the definition of conformal field theory. I used every excuse to sneak away from the Moscow Physical-Technical Institute where I studied to attend these lectures of Feigin and Beilinson. I don't think I had an opportunity to attend any more Gelfand seminars in Moscow after that.
