Nichols algebras over (solvable) groups

Abstract: Nichols algebras appear in various areas of mathematics, ranging from Hopf algebras and quantum groups to Schubert calculus and conformal field theory. In this talk, I will review the main challenges in classifying Nichols algebras over groups and discuss some recent classification theorems. In particular, I will highlight a recent classification result (https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.02304), achieved in collaboration with Andruskiewitsch and Heckenberger, concerning finite-dimensional Nichols algebras over solvable groups.

Quantum Groups Seminar [QGS]

Series comments: This online seminar aims to bring together experts in the area of quantum groups. The seminar topics will cover the theory of quantum groups and related structures in a large sense: Hopf algebras, operator algebras, q-deformations, higher categories and related branches of noncommutative mathematics.

The zoom links will be distributed by mail, so please join the mailing list if you are interested in attending the seminar.
