  • Quantum Group Actions, Twisting Elements, and Deformations of Algebras
    QUANTUM GROUP ACTIONS, TWISTING ELEMENTS, AND DEFORMATIONS OF ALGEBRAS GEORGIA BENKART AND SARAH WITHERSPOON Abstract. We construct twisting elements for module algebras of restricted two-parameter quantum groups from factors of their R-matrices. We general- ize the theory of Giaquinto and Zhang to universal deformation formulas for categories of module algebras and give examples arising from R-matrices of two-parameter quantum groups. 1. Introduction The algebraic deformation theory of Giaquinto and Zhang [GZ] laid out a frame- work for certain types of deformations of associative algebras, namely those arising from actions of bialgebras on algebras. This work generalized known examples of deformations coming from the action of a Lie algebra (equivalently of its universal enveloping algebra). Giaquinto and Zhang illustrated their ideas by constructing a new deformation formula from the action of a noncommutative bialgebra, namely, the universal enveloping algebra of a certain nonabelian Lie algebra. This Lie algebra is spanned by the n £ n matrix units E1;p; Ep;n for p = 1; : : : ; n, along with the n £ n diagonal matrices of trace 0, and so it is an abelian extension of a Heisenberg Lie algebra when n ¸ 3, and it is a two-dimensional nonabelian Lie al- gebra when n = 2. In recent work, Grunspan [G] applied the deformation formula for the n = 2 case to solve the open problem of giving an explicit deformation of the Witt algebra. In their study of deformations and orbifolds, C¸ald¸araru, Giaquinto, and the second author [CGW] constructed a deformation from a noncocommutative (and noncommutative) bialgebra { the Drinfeld double of a Taft algebra.

  • Emissary | Spring 2021
    Spring 2021 EMISSARY M a t h e m a t i c a lSc i e n c e sRe s e a r c hIn s t i t u t e www.msri.org Mathematical Problems in Fluid Dynamics Mihaela Ifrim, Daniel Tataru, and Igor Kukavica The exploration of the mathematical foundations of fluid dynamics began early on in human history. The study of the behavior of fluids dates back to Archimedes, who discovered that any body immersed in a liquid receives a vertical upward thrust, which is equal to the weight of the displaced liquid. Later, Leonardo Da Vinci was fascinated by turbulence, another key feature of fluid flows. But the first advances in the analysis of fluids date from the beginning of the eighteenth century with the birth of differential calculus, which revolutionized the mathematical understanding of the movement of bodies, solids, and fluids. The discovery of the governing equations for the motion of fluids goes back to Euler in 1757; further progress in the nineteenth century was due to Navier and later Stokes, who explored the role of viscosity. In the middle of the twenti- eth century, Kolmogorov’s theory of tur- bulence was another turning point, as it set future directions in the exploration of fluids. More complex geophysical models incorporating temperature, salinity, and ro- tation appeared subsequently, and they play a role in weather prediction and climate modeling. Nowadays, the field of mathematical fluid dynamics is one of the key areas of partial differential equations and has been the fo- cus of extensive research over the years.

  • Yetter-Drinfeld Modules Under Cocycle Twists
    YETTER-DRINFELD MODULES UNDER COCYCLE TWISTS GEORGIA BENKART, MARIANA PEREIRA, AND SARAH WITHERSPOON To Susan Montgomery in honor of her distinguished career Abstract. We give an explicit formula for the correspondence between simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules for certain finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras H and those for cocycle twists Hσ of H. This implies an equivalence between modules for their Drinfeld doubles. To illustrate our results, we consider the restricted two-parameter quantum groups ur;s(sln) under conditions on the pa- rameters guaranteeing that ur;s(sln) is a Drinfeld double of its Borel subalgebra. We determine explicit correspondences between ur;s(sln)-modules for different values of r and s and provide examples where no such correspondence can exist. Our examples were obtained via the computer algebra system Singu- lar::Plural. 1. Introduction Radford [24] gave a construction of simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules for a pointed Hopf algebra H, whose group G(H) of grouplike elements is abelian, under fairly general hypotheses on H. These simple modules are in one-to-one correspondence with the Cartesian product of G(H) with its dual group, and are realized as vector subspaces of the Hopf algebra H itself. Radford and Schneider [25] generalized this method to include a much wider class of Hopf algebras given by cocycle twists of tensor product Hopf algebras. Again the simple modules are in one-to-one corre- spondence with a set of characters, but this time each simple module is realized as the quotient of a Verma module by its unique maximal submodule (equivalently, by the radical of the Shapovalov form) reminiscent of standard Lie-theoretic meth- ods.

    Connections for Women: Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry and Representation Theory January 24 to January 25, 2013 MSRI, Berkeley, CA, USA Organizers: Georgia Benkart (University of Wisconsin) Ellen Kirkman* (Wake Forest University) Susan Sierra (Princeton University & University of Edinburgh) 1 of 22 Connections for Women: Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry and Representation Theory, January 24 - 25, 2013 at MSRI, Berkeley, CA USA REPORT ON THE MSRI WORKSHOP \CONNECTIONS FOR WOMEN: NONCOMMUTATIVE ALGEBRAIC GEOMETRY AND REPRESENTATION THEORY" JANUARY 24-25, 2013 Organizers: • Georgia Benkart (University of Wisconsin-Madison) • Ellen Kirkman (Wake Forest University) • Susan Sierra (University of Edinburgh) 1 Scientific description The Connections for Women Workshop had three overarching goals: (1) to provide an accessible introduction to the main themes of the MSRI semester- long program \Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry and Representation Theory" (NAGRT); (2) to bring together researchers in this program as well as in the year-long program in commutative algebra and the fall pro- gram in cluster algebras; and (3) to connect junior researchers, especially women and minorities, to senior researchers. The workshop preceded the five-day \Introductory Workshop" for the NAGRT program that was held at MSRI January 28-February 1, 2013. Noncommutative algebra impacts virtually every area of algebra and combinatorics as well as geometry, mathematical physics, and statistical mechanics, and has played a crucial role in solving open problems in these areas. The Connections Workshop featured eight hour-long lectures, which focused on fundamental ideas and open problems in noncommutative alge- bra, geometry, and representation theory. There were four poster sessions, each featuring the work of three or four early-career researchers.
