TL;DR: Aq-difference analogue of the universal enveloping algebra U(g) of a simple Lie algebra g is introduced in this article, and its structure and representations are studied in the simplest case g=sl(2).
Abstract: Aq-difference analogue of the universal enveloping algebra U(g) of a simple Lie algebra g is introduced. Its structure and representations are studied in the simplest case g=sl(2). It is then applied to determine the eigenvalues of the trigonometric solution of the Yang-Baxter equation related to sl(2) in an arbitrary finite-dimensional irreducible representation.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that every finite-dimensional Poisson manifold X admits a canonical deformation quantization, and that the set of equivalence classes of associative algebras close to the algebra of functions on X is in one-to-one correspondence with the class of Poisson structures on X modulo diffeomorphisms.
Abstract: I prove that every finite-dimensional Poisson manifold X admits a canonical deformation quantization. Informally, it means that the set of equivalence classes of associative algebras close to the algebra of functions on X is in one-to-one correspondence with the set of equivalence classes of Poisson structures on X modulo diffeomorphisms. In fact, a more general statement is proven (the ‘Formality conjecture’), relating the Lie superalgebra of polyvector fields on X and the Hochschild complex of the algebra of functions on X. Coefficients in explicit formulas for the deformed product can be interpreted as correlators in a topological open string theory, although I do not explicitly use the language of functional integrals.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conjecture an expression for the Liouville theory conformal blocks and correlation functions on a Riemann surface of genus g and n punctures as the Nekrasov partition function of a certain class of SCFTs recently defined by one of the authors.
Abstract: We conjecture an expression for the Liouville theory conformal blocks and correlation functions on a Riemann surface of genus g and n punctures as the Nekrasov partition function of a certain class of \({\mathcal{N}=2}\) SCFTs recently defined by one of the authors. We conduct extensive tests of the conjecture at genus 0, 1.

TL;DR: In this article, the structure and representations of the universal enveloping algebra U(g) were studied for g = g[(N+1) the structure of the algebra Ŭ(g), a q-analogue of the Universal Enveloping Algebra (U(g)).
Abstract: We study for g=g[(N+1) the structure and representations of the algebra Ŭ(g), a q-analogue of the universal enveloping algebra U(g). Applying the result, we construct trigonometric solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation associated with higher representations of g.
