Funded Activity Summary

Quasi-hereditary categories in Lie theory. This project aims to use diagram algebras and categorical representation theory to study fundamental open problems in the representation theory of Lie algebras and their generalisations. The concept of symmetry is omnipresent in science and culture. Its mathematical study leads to the notion of groups, algebras and their representation theory. Representation theory is applicable in many active research areas, including subatomic particle physics and quantum computing. Solutions to these problems could lead to better understanding of several categories of representations of Lie algebras, and create new research tools.
