Our geometric concepts evolved first through the discovery of Non-Euclidean geometry. The discovery of quantum mechanics in the form of the noncommuting coordinates on the phase …

Categories enriched with tensor products, here called tensor categories, but also called monoidal categories, have been studied and used extensively in the literature [ML1, EK …
This invaluable book is an introduction to knot and link invariants as generalised amplitudes for a quasi-physical process. The demands of knot theory, coupled with a quantum-statistical …
A Joyal, R Street - Advances in mathematics, 1991 - core.ac.uk
The goal of this first paper is to formalise the use of certain diagrams for a wide variety of situations in pure and applied mathematics. The main examples are the Feynman diagrams …

A new realisation of the quantum group SU q (2) is constructed by means of a q-analogue to the Jordan-Schwinger mapping, determining thereby both the complete representation …

Standard (Drinfeld-Jimbo) q-deformation of the Cartan-Weyl basis for o (3, 2)(real form of B2)⋍ sp (4| R)(real form of C2) is calculated. The limit R→∞(R is the anti-de Sitter radius) …

We first exhibit in the commutative case the simple algebraic relations between the algebra of functions on a manifold and its infinitesimal length element ds. Its unitary representations …
This is an introduction to non-commutative geometry, with special emphasis on those cases where the structure algebra, which defines the geometry, is an algebra of matrices over the …

This book introduces recent developments in the study of algebras defined by quadratic relations. One of the main problems in the study of these (and similarly defined) algebras is …
