Title: Bergman algebras
Time: 16:30-17:30, Location 1318

 

Abstract: A half a century ago, George Bergman introduced stunning machinery which would 
realise any commutative conical monoid as a K-theory of a ring. We discuss this machinery. 
Many combinatorial algebras constructed in the last 50 years, such as Leavitt path algebras 
and their generalisations, can be obtained from Bergman’s machinery.

Title: Deligne’s conjecture for Lie algebroid pairs
Time: Nov. 29, 15:00-16:00, Location 5405

 

Abstract: Deligne conjectured that the Hochschild cochain complex of an associative algebra 
admits a structure of an algebra over the little 2-discs operad. Braces algebras play important 
roles in the solutions of Deligne’s conjecture. The theory of Lie algebroid pairs provides a 
common framework to study many sources of geometric objects which include complex 
manifolds, foliations, and manifolds with Lie algebra actions. In this talk, I report progress 
on constructing homotopy braces algebra arising from a Lie algebroid pair, and proving a 
geometric generalization of Deligne’s conjecture: the Hochschild cochain complex of a Lie 
algebroid pair also admits a structure of an algebra over the little 2-discs operad. This is a 
joint work with Z. Chen, Y. Qiao, and M. Xiang.

Abstract: In this lecture series, we will present structure theorems for Calabi-Yau
algebras and categories following mainly work by Michel Van den Bergh and recent
joint work with Junyang Liu. Calabi-Yau algebras can be viewed as non-commutative
analogues of symplectic varieties and the structure theorems we will present will be
non-commutative analogues of Darboux' theorem, which states that locally, each
symplectic variety is isomorphic to affine 2n-space with its standard symplectic 
structure. Of course, the locality condition is essential here. In the non-commutative
context, it is replaced with the assumption that our algebras are (connective, 
complete augmented) pseudo-compact dg (=differential graded) algebras (and
similarly for categories and for functors). The lecture series will consist
of two main parts, the first one being devoted to the structure of Calabi-Yau
dg algebras and morphisms and the second one to that of Calabi-Yau triangulated 
categories and stably Calabi-Yau Frobenius categories. In the first part, after 
an introduction with examples, we will first recall the necessary homological algebra 
and the Calabi-Yau conditions for algebras in the absolute and the relative (pseudo-compact) 
setting. We will then present the Darboux theorems in the absolute case (due to Michel
Van den Bergh) and the relative case (obtained in joint work with Junyang Liu).
In the second part, we will start with a reminder on cluster categories
constructed from quivers with potential (following Amiot and Lingyan Guo) and 
Higgs categories constructed from ice quivers with potential (following Yilin Wu). 
We will then sketch how, via a "dimension shift", the results of the first part 
allow to prove that algebraic d-Calabi-Yau categories with cluster-tilting object 
are cluster categories associated with (d+1)-Calabi-Yau algebras (absolute
case) and that certain stably d-Calabi-Yau Frobenius exact categories are
Higgs categories (relative case). These statements can be viewed as proofs 
of variants of Amiot's conjecture from 2010.

Title: Representation rings of the small (quasi-)quantum groups
Time: 7.2316:30-17:30, Location: 1418

 

Abstract: In this talk, we introduce a class of finite dimensional quasi-Hopf algebras,
 called small quasi-quantum groups, and compute their  representation rings.  It turns 
out that their stable representation rings are isomorphic to the ones of the classic 
small quantum groups.

Title: Drinfeld type presentations for affine i-quantum groups
Time: 7.1810:00-11:00, Location: 1418

 

Abstract: The Drinfeld (loop) presentation for affine quantum groups has played
 a fundamental role in its representation theory. The i-quantum groups are coideal 
subalgebras of quantum groups arising from quantum symmetric pairs, and they 
can be viewed as natural generalizations of quantum groups. In this talk, I will talk 
about our recent construction of Drinfeld type presentations for quasi-split affine 
i-quantum groups. This new Drinfeld type presentation can be thought as a deformation 
of the Drinfeld presentation for affine quantum groups. This is joint with Ming Lu 
and Weiqiang Wang.

Title: McKay-Slodowy correspondence and tensor invariants

Time: July 6, 10:00-11:00

Location: 1418

 

Abstract: We will first review the McKay correspondence and its generalization

using elementary group theory. It gives a nice correspondence between finite

subgroups of SL(2, C) and simply laced affine Dynkin diagrams. The McKay-Slodowy

correspondence is then used to describe tenor invariants and symmetric tensor invariants.

We also discuss generalization to higher rank case.

 

 

Title: Quantum affine algebras and extended quantum affine algebras
Time: July 7, 10:00-11:00

Location: 1418

 

Abstract: Quantum affine algebras are quantum enveloping algebras of affine Lie algebras,

introduced independently by Drinfeld and Jimbo in their study of the Yang-Baxter equation.

Representation theory of quantum affine algebras depends mostly on the Drinfeld realization.

We will discuss our recent joint work with F. Chen, F. Kong and S. Tan on Drinfeld realization

 for quantum extended affine algebras.

Title: Unifying highest weight modular representation theories

Time: 16, 17, 19, 20, 22, 10:00-11:30

Location: 1418

 

Abstract: Given a generalized Cartan matrix, there are many different algebras and groups

 one can attach to, the classical Kac-Moody Lie algebra and the corresponding Kac-Moody

groups as well as quantum groups (superquantum groups) with one or many parameters

appearing in the literature. One of the themes in representation theories of these algebras is to

compute the decomposition numbers of irreducible modules in the universal highest weight

modules. More generally, one want to study the Kazhdan-Lusztig theory, in particular,

one wants to compute the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. In this series of lectures, we will

define Lusztig's modified quantum groups, called U-dot system, for each of these algebras.

It turns out that the highest weight representations of these algebras are dependent only

on the U-dot systems. We will prove that the U-dot systems are isomorphic up to base change.

Thus one can compare different highest weight representation theories of different types

of quantum groups/algebras by comparing their U-dot systems. Therefore their decomposition

numbers as well as the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials can be transported freely among different

quantum groups or algebraic groups as well as their modular representation theories. Lusztig's

various conjectures in the path of proving Lusztig's character formula conjecture for algebraic

 groups in positive characteristic case using representations of quantum groups, representations

of affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras is, in fact, to compare the U-dot systems. This is a joint

work with Zhaobin Fan and Yiqiang Li.

Title: Factorizations of finite groups

Time: 14:30-15:30

Location: 5505

 

Abstract: Studying factorizations of groups is a lastingly active topic in group theory, and

has many applications in various areas. The factorization problem of almost simple groups

has been one of the central problems in finite simple group theory. The problem has been

reduced to determine factorizations of classical groups of Lie type. In this talk, I will report

on recent progress of the problem.

Title: The left-right symmetry of finite delooping level

Time: 10:00-11:00

Location: 5106

 

Abstract: In this talk, we will show that the delooping level conjecture holds true for

all Artin algebras if and only if, for all Artin algebras, the delooping level of an algebra

being finite implies that the delooping level of its opposite algebra is also finite. This is

based on a joint work with YongLiang Sun.

Title: Stable equivalences of centralizer matrix algebras

Time: 16:30-17:30

Location: 1418

 

Abstract: In the representation theory of algebras and groups, stable equivalences

have been investigated for a long time. They are, however, still remain mysterious.

One of the main conjectures on stable equivalences is the Auslander-Reiten (or

Auslander-Alperin) conjecture which states that two stably equivalent algebras

should have the same number of non-isomorphic, non-projective simple modules.

This conjecture is open up to date. In this talk, we will show that the Auslander-Reiten

conjecture on stable equivalences holds true for a class of centralizer matrix algebras

over algebraically closed field and reveal 3 new invariants of stable equivalences

of Artin algebras. This talk presents a joint work with J.B. Zhang.

Abstract: We show the positivity of the canonical basis for a modified quantum affine

sln and modified i-quantum groups under the comultiplication. This is a joint work

Title: An introduction to exact dg categories, after Xiaofa Chen

Time: 10:00-11:30

Location:  1408

 

Abstract: In this series of lectures, we will report on results from Xiaofa Chen's

ongoing Ph. D. thesis. His notion of an exact dg category is a simultaneous

generalization of the notions of exact category in the sense of Quillen and

of pretriangulated dg category in the sense of Bondal-Kapranov. It is also a dg

enhancement of the notion of extriangulated category recently introduced by

Nakaoka-Palu. Via Lurie's dg nerve, it is related to Barwick's notion of exact

infinity-category.

 

We will start by recalling the definition and the main examples of extriangulated

categories. We will then give the definition of an exact dg category in complete

analogy with Quillen's but where the category of kernel-cokernel pairs is replaced

with a more sophisticated homotopy category. We will give two descriptions of this

category using respectively dg functor categories and A-infinity functor categories.

We will then present examples related to Yilin Wu's Higgs categories and Haibo Jin's

categories of dg Cohen-Macaulay modules. There will follow a number of fundamental

results concerning the dg nerve, the dg derived category, tensor products and functor

categories with exact dg target and the existence of the greatest exact structure on a dg

category with additive H^0. This generalizes a Theorem of Rump for Quillen exact

categories. Under certain hypotheses, it allows to classify all exact structures on a given

dg category with additive zeroth homology. Finally, we will present work in progress

with Yilin Wu and Xiaofa Chen on the subtle notion of projective respectively injective

resolution for objects in exact dg categories.

Title: On Pure Acyclic Complexes

Time: 14:30-15:30

Location:  5205, Tencent 518-5448-0979

 

Abstract: In this talk, we review some results on pure acyclic complexes and give an

affirmative answer to the conjecture that a complex $E$ in a locally $\lambda$-presentable

Grothendieck category $\mathcal{A}$ is $\lambda$-pure acyclic if and only if any chain

map $ f  :  X\rightarrow E$ from a complex $X$  of $\lambda$-pure projective objects

in $\mathcal{A}$ to $E$ is null-homotopic, where $\lambda$ is an infinite regular cardinal.

This talk is a report on joint work with Lei Shen and Meiqi Wang.

Title: On the center conjecture for the cyclotomic KLR algebras

Time: 14:30-15:30

Location:  5205, Tencent 518-5448-0979

 

Abstract: The cyclotomic KLR algebras play an important roles in the categorification

of integrable highest weight modules of quantum groups. The center conjecture for the

cyclotomic KLR algebras $R_\beta^\Lambda$ asserts that the center of $R_\beta^\Lambda$

consists of symmetric elements in its KLR $x$ and $e(\nu)$ generators. In this talk, I will

report some history and our recent progress on this conjecture. This talk is based on a joint

work with Lin Huang.

Title: Relative cohomology groups and Gpp dimensions of complexes

Time: 14:30-15:30

Location:  5205, Tencent 518-5448-0979

 

Abstract: We establish a relationship between the vanishing of relative cohomology

groups and the finiteness of Gpp dimensions of complexes. This is a Gorenstein

version of a conclusion established by Avramov and Foxby. Hence it is valuable

to study further Gpp dimensions of complexes.

Title: Orthogonal generators over self-injective algebras

Time: 14:30-15:30

Location:  5205, Tencent 518-5448-0979

 

Abstract: One of the main open problems in the representation theory of Artin

algebras is the Nakayama conjecture, stating that an Artin algebra should be

self-injective whenever its dominant dimension is infinite. To attack

this conjecture, Tachikawa proposed two related conjectures, one of them

says that an orthogonal module over a self-injective algebra should be

projective. Motivated by these conjectures, we study orthogonal generators over

self-injective algebras from the angle of triangulated categories. In the talk we will

show that such modules produce recollements of relative stable module categories

and discuss their dimensions. As a consequence, we show that the Nakayama

conjecture holds true for the universally Gorenstein algebras. This reports parts

of a recently ongoing work jointly with H. X. Chen.

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1418

 

Abstract: We investigate abstract versions of the monomorphism category as studied by Ringel and

 Schmidmeier. We prove that analogues of the kernel and cokernel functor send almost split sequences

over the path algebra and the preprojective algebra to split or almost split sequences in the

monomorphism category. This is based on the joint work with Julian Kuelshammer,

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1418

 

Abstract: In this talk, we recall some basic properties of $\tau$-tilting modules, especially

the homological properties of self-orthogonal $\tau$-tilting modules. Moreover, we give a

sufficient and necessary condition for a self-orthogonal $\tau$-tilting module to be a classical

tilting module. We show that a $\tau$-tilting module of finite projective dimension

is a classical tilting module if and only if it is self-orthogonal.

Title: From morphic enhancements to derivators

Time & Location: 4.23, 14:00-15:00, the fifth teaching building 5506

     4.24, 4.26, 4.27, 9:00-10:00, the math building 1218.

 

Abstract:  It is well-known that in the derived category of an abelian category,

the cone is not functorial. However, it becomes functorial when we replace it

with the cone functor defined on the derived category of the category of

morphisms of the abelian category. Morphic enhancements axiomatize the relations

between the derived category and the derived category of morphisms. They allow

to define a triangulated structure on Krause's Cauchy completion of a (phantomless,

algebraic) triangulated category and to define a "realization functor" on two-term

complexes. By iterating morphic enhancements, one naturally arrives at the notion of

an epivalent tower of triangulated categories, which goes back to the late eighties.

It serves to formulate a universal property of the construction that assigns the

derived category to an exact category. In practice, all towers that occur are in fact

restrictions of derivators of the cubical category and it is natural to replace the tower

with the derivator. As shown by Porta, the stable derivator associated with an exact

category still enjoys a pleasant universal property.

Title: On quivers with analytic potentials 

Time & Location: 04.22, 15:00-16:00, the fifth teaching building 5305

 

Abstract:   Given a finite quiver, an element of the complete path algebra over field of

complex number is called analytic if its coefficients are bounded by a geometric series. 

We may develop a parallel construction of Jacobi algebra and Ginzburg algebra for

a quiver with an analytic potential. Analytic potential occurs naturally in the deformation

 theory of sheaves on projective Calabi-Yau manifold. It turns out that analytic potentials

admit much richer structures in noncommutative differential calculus compared with the

formal ones. I will give a brief introduction to some of my recent work on this topic.

Title: Finite quasi-quantum groups over finite abelian groups

Time: 9:40-10:40

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building 1318

 

Abstract:  In this talk, we study nondiagonal finite quasi-quantum groups over finite

abelian groups. We investigate the Nichols algebras in the twisted Yetter-Drinfeld

module category  with a nonabelian 3-cocycle on a finite abelian group G. A complete

classification is obtained for the Nichols algebra B(V) in caseV is a simple twisted

Yetter-Drinfeld module of nondiagonal type. This provides a complete classification of

finite-dimensional coradically graded pointed coquasi-Hopf algebras over abelian

groups of odd order, and confirms partially the generation conjecture of pointed finite

tensor categories due to Etingof, Gelaki, Nikshych and Ostrik.

Title: Some homological invariant properties under Frobenius extensions

Time: 10:00-11:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building 1318

 

Abstract:  Frobenius extensions were introduced by Kasch as a generalization of Frobenius

algebra. In this talk, we will show that, for a Frobenius extension, a module over the

extension ring is Gorenstein projective if and only if so is its underlying module over the

base ring. For a separable Frobenius extension between Artin algebras, we obtain that

some homological properties are invariant, including CM-finiteness, CM-freeness and the

representation dimension of Artin algebra.

Title: Cluster category and birational geometry

Time: 07.25, 16:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building 1218

 

Abstract: A fundamental problem in birational geometry, in particular in minimal model

program, is to classify contractible rational curves. In this talk, we will build a relation

between it and the theory of cluster category. To be more specific, we associate to each

3-dimensional flopping contraction a cluster category in the sense of Aimot. Based on

our previous work on noncommutative Mather-Yau theorem, we show that the cluster

category is essentially determined by its cluster tilting algebra. On the other hand, we

formulate certain necessary condition on the associated cluster category for a rigid

rational curve to be contractible, which is conjecturally to be also sufficient. The talk is

based on a joint work with Guisong Zhou 1803.06128, and the work in progress joint

with Bernhard Keller.

Title: Topological type Fukaya categories and Calabi-Yau/Cluster categories.

Time: 05.08, 14:30-15:30

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building 1518

 

Abstract: We introduce Calabi-Yau-X categories of quivers with superpotential from

surfaces and show that their cluster categories are topological Fukaya categories. We

also survey various topological type Fukaya categories, including Calabi-Yau-3

categories of quivers with potential and Calabi-Yau-2 cluster categories from

Title: Cluster exchange groupoids and framed quadratic differentials

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building 1518

 

Abstract: We introduce cluster exchange groupoids, whose points groups give the

generalized braid groups--the cluster braid groups. As application, we

construct spaces of framed quadratic differentials on decorated marked

surfaces, that realized spaces of stability conditions, and show that

these spaces are simply connected. (Joint with Alastair King)

Time: 03. 15, 15:30-17:00, 03.16/17, 10:00-11:30

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building 1518

 

Abstract: Throughout the lectures all algebras are assumed to be finite-dimensional algebras

over a fixed algebraically closed field k. First we review the derived equivalence classification

of representation-finite selfinjective algebras and multifold extensions of piecewise hereditary algebras

of tree type, and see how a covering theory was used to show derived equivalences. Because we

have to deal with coverings of non-basic categories, we introduce weak group actions on k-categories,

which leads us to a 2-categorical covering theory. We explain how to use this theory to show derived

equivalences of algebras having forms of orbit categories of k-categories. Finally, by considering the

converse construction of orbit categories, we introduce a 2-categorical Cohen-Montgomery duality

and discuss relationships between these constructions and derived equivalences.

Time: 03.14, 10:00-11:00, 03. 15, 14:30-15:30

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building 1518

 

Abstract: We investigate abelian quotients of the categories of short exact sequences. The natural

framework to consider the question is via identifying quotients of morphism categories as

module categories. In the first talk, I will provide techniques needed for such identifications. These

ideas not only can be used to recover the abelian quotients produced by cluster-tilting subcategories

of both exact categories and triangulated categories, but also can be used to reach our goal. In the

second talk, I will focus on the properties of the abelian quotients. I will describe the abelian structure,

simple objects, projective objects and injective objects, which provide a new viewpoint to

understand Hilton-Rees Theorem and Auslander-Reiten theory.

condition and support varieties are preserved under singular equivalences

of Morita type. In particular, support variety theory is invariant under

stable equivalences of Morita type.

Title: Support τ-tilting modules and recollements

Time: 01.15, 10:00-11:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

 

Abstract: Let (mod A, mod B, mod C) be a recollement of abelian categories for

artin algebras A, B and C. Under certain conditions, we present an explicit

construction of gluing of (support) τ-tilting modules in mod B with respect

to (support) τ-tilting modules in mod A and mod C respectively; conversely,

we study the construction of (support) τ-tilting modules in mod A and mod C

obtained from (support) τ-tilting modules in mod B.

Abstract: As a generalization of tilting pair, which was introduced by Miyashita, the notion

of a silting pair is introduced. We extend a characterization of tilting modules given by

Bassoni to silting pairs, and prove that there is an one-to-one correspondence between

silting pairs and certain subcategories.

Time: 9.25, 27, 10:30-11:30

Abstract: We consider the graded Steinberg algebra of a graded ample Hausdorff groupoid.

We show that this category is isomorphic to the category of unital left modules over the

Steinberg algebra of the skew-product groupoid arising from the grading. To do this, we show

that the Steinberg algebra of the skew product is graded isomorphic to a natural generalisation

of the Cohen-Montgomery smash product of the Steinberg algebra of the underlying groupoid

with the grading group. Specialising to the setting of directed graphs, we produce a

representation of the monoid of graded finitely generated projective modules over a Leavitt path algebra.

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

 

Abstract:  We survey some results about discrete derived categories. Roughly speaking, discrete

derived categories have less complexity than derived categories of tame hereditary algebras. We

mainly focus on the components of their Auslander-Reiten quivers and the tilting theory of the

finite dimensional algebras with discrete derived categories. If time permits, we will give some

results about the classification of t-structures of discrete derived categories.

Title: Singular Hochschild cohomology and Gerstenhaber algebra

Time: 06.02, 10:00-11:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

 

Abstract: Let A be an associative algebra over a commutative ring k such that A is projective as a k-module.

Then the Hochschild cohomology HH^m(A, A) can be viewed as the Hom-space Hom_{D^b(A\otimes_k A^{op})}(A, A[m])

in the bounded derived category D^b(A\otimes_k A^{op}). We replace D^b(A\otimes_k A^{op}) by the singular category

 D_{sg}(A\otimes_k A^{op}), which is the Verdier quotient of D^b(A\otimes_k A^{op}) by the full subcategory

Perf(A\otimes_k A^{op}) consisting of  perfect complexes of A\otimes_k A^{op}-modules and define the singular

 Hochschild cohomology HH_{sg}^m(A, A) to be the Hom-space Hom_{D_{sg}(A\otimes_k A^{op})}(A, A[m]) for any 

integer m.

 

In this talk, we prove that HH_{sg}^*(A, A) has a Gerstenhaber algebra structure. We provide a prop interpretation for this

Gerstenhaber algebra (a joint work with G. Zhou).  We will also give several examples on how to compute HH_{sg}^*(A, A)

in the case of radical square zero algebras A.

Title: On the derived representation type of finite-dimensional algebras

Time: 11.13, 10:00-11:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1308

 

Abstract:  In this talk, we will introduce some numerical invariants including cohomological length, 
cohomological width, and cohomological range of a complex. The cohomological range leads to the 
concepts of derived bounded algebra and strongly derived unbounded algebra. Then we will describe
 the Brauer-Thrall type theorems for the bounded derived category of a finite-dimensional algebra. 
Moreover, we characterize the strongly derived unbounded algebra $A$ via the category $C_m(\proj A)$ 
and also the repetitive algebra $\hat{A}$, which provides a proof of the dichotomy on the representation 
type of $C_m(\proj A)$ and $\hat{A}$.

Title: Covering theory for linear categories with application to derived category 

Time: 7.13, 15, 17, 20, 22, 24, 10:00-11:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1318

 

Abstract:  We extend the Galois covering theory introduced by Bongartz–Gabriel for skeletal

linear categories to general linear categories. We show that a Galois covering between

Krull–Schmidt categories preserves irreducible morphisms and almost splits sequences.

Specializing to derived categories, we study when a Galois covering between locally bounded

 linear categories induces a Galois covering between the bounded derived categories of

finite dimensional modules. As an application, we show that each locally bounded linear category

with radical squared zero admits a gradable Galois covering, which induces a Galois covering

 between the bounded derived categories of finite dimensional modules, and a Galois covering

between the Auslander–Reiten quivers of these bounded derived categories. In a future paper,

this will enable us to obtain a complete description of the bounded derived category of finite

dimensional modules over a finite dimensional algebra with radical squared zero.

of derived categories. Most of the contents of the lectures are taken from a joint paper with H. X. Chen.

Abstract:  In noncommutative algebra, primitive ideals play the role as the maximal ideals in

commutative algebra. The set of all primitive ideals in a noncommutative algebra A is usually called

the primitive spectrum of A. It is a noncommutative analogue to the prime spectrum of a commutative

 algebra. In this talk, I will give a brief introduction to the primitive ideals of symplectic algebras.

The talk is based on Ginzburg's paper: On primitive ideals, Selecta Math. New Series 9 (2003), 379-407.

Abstract:  We use the stable categories of some sel_njective algebras to describe the singularity

problem of singularity equivalence classi_cation of the cluster-tilted algebra of type A, D and E

respectively. As a generalization of the structure of the cluster-tilted algebra of type A, we define

the gluing Nakayama algebra, and use technique of recollement to describe its singularity category

clearly.

Time:  11.11, 16:00-17:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

Abstract:  Let $B$ be a generalized Koszul algebra over a finite dimensional algebra $S$.

We construct a bimodule Koszul resolution of $B$ when the projective dimension

of $S_B$ equals 2. Using this we prove a Poincar\'{e}-Birkhoff-Witt (PBW) type theorem

 for a deformation of a generalized Koszul algebra. When the projective dimension

of $S_B$ is greater than 2, we construct bimodule Koszul resolutions for generalized

smash product algebras obtained from braidings between finite dimensional algebras

and Koszul algebras, and then prove the PBW type theorem. The results obtained

can be applied to standard Koszul Artin-Schelter Gorenstein algebras in the sense of

Minamoto and Mori.

Title:  Categorical resolutions of triangulated categories

Time:  10.24, 15:30-17:30

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

 

Abstract: Categorical resolutions of a triangulated category come from looking

for a minimal resolution of singularities of an algebraic variety. There are now

several definitions of a categorical resolution of a triangulated category, mainly given

by A. Bondal and D. Orlov, A. Kuznetsov, M. Van den Bergh, and V.A. Lunts. In this

talk, we will briefly recall their ways.By using representation theory of Artin algebras

and the relative derived category, we will give categorical resolutions of a class of

bounded derived categories, both in the sense of A. Bondal and D. Orlov, and in

the sense of A. Kuznetsov. In the commutative local Gorenstein case, this is also

in the sense of M. Van den Bergh.

Time:  05.05, 15:00-16:00

Abstract: Weighted projective lines have been widely studied in the representation

theory of algebras. By computing the genus, all the weighted projective lines can

be divided into three types: domestic, tubular and wild. Among them, there is close

relationship between weighted projective lines of tubular type and elliptic curves.

In this talk, we will recall the notions of weighted projective lines and elliptic curves,

and then show the relationship between them by an explicit example.

Title:  Graph algebras (I, II, III)
Time:  07.22,23,24, 16:00-17:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

 

Abstract: From a graph (e.g., cities and flights between them) one can generate

an algebra which captures the movements along the graph.

 

This talk is about one type of such correspondences, i.e., Leavitt path algebras.

 

Despite being introduced only 8 years ago, Leavitt path algebras have arisen

in a variety of different contexts as diverse as analysis, symbolic dynamics,

noncommutative geometry and representation theory. In fact, Leavitt path

algebras are algebraic counterpart to graph C*-algebras. There are strikingly

 parallel similarities between these two theories. Even more surprisingly,

one cannot (yet) obtain the results in one theory as a consequence of the other;

the statements look the same, however the techniques to prove them are quite

 different (as the names suggest, one uses Algebra and other Analysis).

These all suggest that there might be a bridge between Algebra and Analysis

yet to be uncovered.

 

In this talk, we introduce Leavitt path algebras and then try to understand

the behaviour and to classify them by means of (graded) K-theory.

Time:  06.30, 07.01, 10:00-11:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

 

Abstract: The concept of a functor or morphism determined by an object was 
introduced by Maurice Auslander in 1978 as an attempt to generalise 
previous results (joint with Idun Reiten) on the existence of almost split 
sequences. It seems that for many years this fundamental contribution of 
Auslander was almost forgotten. So I will explain this circle of ideas and 
I will show that this concept is particularly useful for studying 
morphisms in triangulated categories.

Time:  06.18, 06.19, 06.21, 10:00-11:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

 

Abstract: We introduce the notion of an Auslander-Reiten sequence in a Krull-Schmidt category. 
This unifies the notion of an almost split sequence in an abelian category and that of an 
Auslander-Reiten triangle in a triangulated category. We then define the Auslander-Reiten quiver 
of a Krull-Schmidt category and describe the shapes of its semi-stable components. The main result
 generalizes those for an artin algebra and specializes to an arbitrary triangulated categories, 
in particular to the derived category of bounded complexes of finitely generated modules over an 
artin algebra of finite global dimension.

Time:  06.22, 14:30-15:30

Abstract: Let R be an artin algebra. In his Philadelphia Notes (published in 1978),

Auslander showed that any homomorphism between R-modules is right determined by an

R-module. This topic is also the theme of the last chapter in the book

of Auslander, Reiten and Smalo. But it seems that the relevance of these

considerations has not yet found the attention they deserve.

 

One reason seems to be the somewhat misleading terminology, this will be

discussed in the first lecture where we outline a direct approach. We will draw the

attention to the indecomposable direct summands of the minimal right determiner of a

morphism. In particular, the role of its projective direct summands is of great interest.

 

The second lecture will provide a detailed analysis of those morphisms which are right

determined by a module without any non-zero projective direct summand. Here we

encounter an intimate relationship to the vanishing of Ext^2.

Time:  06.26, 27, 28, 29, 15:00-17:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1318

Abstract: Based on the notion of bocs and its reduction techniques,

we will talk about the well-known Drozd’s Tame-Wild dichotomy

(i.e. a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field

is either tame or wild, and not both), and Crawley-Boevey theorem

(i.e. almost all modules over a finite dimensional tame algebra lie

 in homogeneous tubes).

Title:  What is Schur duality?

Time:  06.17, 15:00-17:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1611

Abstract: Schur duality concerns about the interaction among general linear

Lie group/algebra, symmetric group, and algebraic combinatorics. It

has generalizations to other classical Lie groups, Lie superalgebras,

quantum groups, as well as to modular representation theory in

prime characteristic.

 

 

Title:  What is Boson-Fermion correspondence?

Time:  06.20, 15:00-17:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1611

Abstract: Boson-Fermion (B-F) correspondence has deep root in mathematical

physics. To us, the  B-F correspondence is an interaction between an

(infinite-dimensional) Heisenberg algebra and Clifford algebra,

which categorifies the Jacob triple product identity. The B-F

correspondence provides a new framework for studying representation theory

of symmetric group and algebraic combinatorics of symmetric

functions, and on the other hand, it is also intimately related to

the integrable hierarchies of PDE.

 

 

Title:  What is McKay correspondence?

Time:  06.21, 15:00-17:00

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1611

Abstract: McKay correspondence concerns a bijection between finite subgroups

of SL_2 and (affine) Dynkin diagrams of simply-laced type, where the

Dynkin diagrams can be substituted by the corresponding Lie

algebras/groups. The connection among these will be made in a multiple

of ways, algebraic and geometric, via finite group representations,

resolution of simple singularities, quiver varieties, and

generalized symmetric groups.

Title:  Stable t-structures and homotopy category of Gorenstein-projective modules

Time:  03.25, 15:15-16:15

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

Abstract: We study the homotopy category of unbounded complexes of

Gorenstein-projective modules with bounded relative homologies.

We show the existence of a right recollement of these homotopy

categories. We show that the bounded Gorenstein derived category of

a CM-finite Gorenstein artin algebra is triangle equivalent to the bounded

derived category of an artin algebra.

Title:  Periodic two d-Koszul algebras

Time:  03.25, 16:30-17:30

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

Abstract: A d-Koszul algebra is said to be periodic if it has a periodic

minimal projective resolution. We will show for a periodic two d-Koszul

algebra, its even Ext-algebra has global dimension one. Using our previous

result, we prove that finitely generated d-Koszul modules over a periodic

two d-Koszul algebra have rational Poincar\'{e} series.

Title:  Constructing bi-Frobenius algebras via Yoneda algebras of AS-regular algebras

Time:  12.29, 16:30-17:30

Location:  GuanLiKeYan Building, Room 1518

Abstract: Let E be an algebra with n generators and n generating relations. We construct a class 
of bi-Frobenius algebras on the algebra E. For the cases n=2 and n=3, it is the Yoneda algebra of 
some AS-regular algebra of global dimension 3.

Title:  Categorification of the Fibonacci Numbers Using Representations of Quivers

Time:  11.18, 16:30-17:30

Location:  KeYanGuanLi Building, Room 1518

Abstract: It is well-known that the dimension vectors of some relevant classes of indecomposable

representations of the 3-Kronecker quiver are pairs of Fibonacci numbers. We want to show in which

way the representations theory of the 3-Kronecker quiver can be used in order to categorify properties

of Fibonacci numbers. The different behaviour of even index and odd index Fibonacci numbers
will be illuminated in this way. In particular, we will present some joint investigations with Philipp

Fahr which use the 3-Kronecker quiver and its universal covering, the 3-regular tree, in order to

derive new partition formulas for the Fibonacci numbers.
