Event description:
Abstract: The Kauffman Bracket Skein algebra is a central object in low-dimensional topology. It is an algebra generated by loops on an oriented surface. There have been many attempts to generalize this algebra from various motivations. In this talk, we review one of the generalizations, its motivation, and recent progress on its representation theory. This talk is based on joint work with Hiroaki Karuo and Helen Wong.
