Skeins on tori

Sam Gunningham, David Jordan, Monica Vazirani

We analyze the -skein theory invariants of the 3-torus and the two-torus , for the groups and for generic quantum parameter. We obtain formulas for t…

Deformation quantization and perverse sheaves

Sam Gunningham, Pavel Safronov

Kashiwara, Polesello, Schapira and D'Agnolo defined canonical deformation quantizations of a holomorphic symplectic manifold and a holomorphic Lagrangian submanifold equipped with…

Quantum Character Theory

Sam Gunningham, David Jordan, Monica Vazirani

We develop a -analogue of the theory of conjugation equivariant -modules on a complex reductive group . In particular, we define quantum Hotta-Kashiwara…

The Jordan--Chevalley decomposition for -bundles on elliptic curves

Dragoş Frăţilă, Sam Gunningham, Penghui Li

We study the moduli stack of degree semistable -bundles on an irreducible curve of arithmetic genus , where is a connected reductive group. Our main result descri…

The finiteness conjecture for skein modules

Sam Gunningham, David Jordan, Pavel Safronov

We give a new, algebraically computable formula for skein modules of closed 3-manifolds via Heegaard splittings. As an application, we prove that skein modules of closed 3-manifold…

The Arf-Brown TQFT of Pin Surfaces

Arun Debray, Sam Gunningham

The Arf-Brown invariant is an 8th root of unity associated to a surface equipped with a pin structure. In this note we investigate a certain fully extended…

Symmetries of categorical representations and the quantum Ngô action

David Ben-Zvi, Sam Gunningham

We observe that all classical Hamiltonian systems coming from the invariant polynomials on a reductive Lie algebra g can be integrated in a universal way. This is a consequence of…

The Character Field Theory and Homology of Character Varieties

David Ben-Zvi, Sam Gunningham, David Nadler

We construct an extended oriented -dimensional topological field theory, the character field theory attached to a affine algebraic group in characteristic zero, which…

A Derived Decomposition for Equivariant -modules

Sam Gunningham

We show that the adjoint equivariant derived category of -modules on a reductive Lie algebra carries an orthogonal decomposition in to blocks indexed by cuspidal…

Highest Weights for Categorical Representations

David Ben-Zvi, Sam Gunningham, Hendrik Orem

We present a criterion for establishing Morita equivalence of monoidal categories, and apply it to the categorical representation theory of reductive groups . We show that the "…

Generalized Springer Theory for D-modules on a Reductive Lie Algebra

Sam Gunningham

Given a reductive group , we give a description of the abelian category of -equivariant -modules on , which specializes to Lusztig's generali…

Spin Hurwitz numbers and topological quantum field theory

Sam Gunningham

Spin Hurwitz numbers count ramified covers of a spin surface, weighted by the size of their automorphism group (like ordinary Hurwitz numbers), but signed according to the…
