In this paper, we give geometric realizations of Lusztig's symmetries. We also give projective resolutions of a kind of standard modules. By using the geometric realizations and the projective resolutions, we obtain the categorification of the formulas of Lusztig's symmetries.

We present a 3D topological picture-language for quantum information. Our approach combines charged excitations carried by strings, with topological properties that arise from embedding the strings in the interior of a 3D manifold with boundary. A quon is a composite that acts as a particle. Specifically, a quon is a hemisphere containing a neutral pair of open strings with opposite charge. We interpret multiquons and their transformations in a natural way. We obtain a type of relation, a string–genus “joint relation,” involving both a string and the 3D manifold. We use the joint relation to obtain a topological interpretation of the C* Hopf algebra relations, which are widely used in tensor networks. We obtain a 3D representation of the controlled NOT (CNOT) gate that is considerably simpler than earlier work, and a 3D topological protocol for teleportation.

Let $\mathbf{U}$ be the quantum group and $\mathbf{f}$ be the Lusztig's algebra associated with a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix. The algebra $\mathbf{f}$ can be viewed as the positive part of $\mathbf{U}$. Lusztig introduced some symmetries $T_i$ on $\mathbf{U}$ for all $i\in I$. Since $T_i(\mathbf{f})$ is not contained in $\mathbf{f}$, Lusztig considered two subalgebras ${_i\mathbf{f}}$ and ${^i\mathbf{f}}$ of $\mathbf{f}$ for any $i\in I$, where ${_i\mathbf{f}}=\{x\in\mathbf{f}\,\,|\,\,T_i(x)\in\mathbf{f}\}$ and ${^i\mathbf{f}}=\{x\in\mathbf{f}\,\,|\,\,T^{-1}_i(x)\in\mathbf{f}\}$. The restriction of $T_i$ on ${_i\mathbf{f}}$ is also denoted by $T_i:{_i\mathbf{f}}\rightarrow{^i\mathbf{f}}$. The geometric realization of $\mathbf{f}$ and its canonical basis are introduced by Lusztig via some semisimple complexes on the variety consisting of representations of the corresponding quiver. When the generalized Cartan matrix is symmetric, Xiao and Zhao gave geometric realizations of Lusztig's symmetries in the sense of Lusztig. In this paper, we shall generalize this result and give geometric realizations of ${_i\mathbf{f}}$, ${^i\mathbf{f}}$ and $T_i:{_i\mathbf{f}}\rightarrow{^i\mathbf{f}}$ by using the language 'quiver with automorphism' introduced by Lusztig.

We investigate compact quantum group actions on unital $C^*$-algebras by analyzing invariant subsets and invariant states. In particular, we come up with the concept of compact quantum group orbits and use it to show that countable compact metrizable spaces with infinitely many points are not quantum homogeneous spaces.

Let $\mathbf{U}$ be the quantized enveloping algebra and $\dot{\mathbf{U}}$ its modified form. Lusztig gives some symmetries on $\mathbf{U}$ and $\dot{\mathbf{U}}$. Since the realization of $\mathbf{U}$ by the reduced Drinfeld double of the Ringel-Hall algebra, one can apply the BGP-reflection functors to the double Ringel-Hall algebra to obtain Lusztig's symmetries on $\mathbf{U}$ and their important properties, for instance, the braid relations. In this paper, we define a modified form $\dot{\mathcal{H}}$ of the Ringel-Hall algebra and realize the Lusztig's symmetries on $\dot{\mathbf{U}}$ by applying the BGP-reflection functors to $\dot{\mathcal{H}}$.
