Narain lattices are unimodular lattices {\it in} $\R^{r, s} $, subject to certain natural equivalence relation and rationality condition. The problem of describing and counting these rational equivalence classes of Narain lattices in $\R^{2, 2} $ has led to an interesting connection to binary forms and their Gauss products, as shown in [HLOYII]. As a sequel, in this paper, we study arbitrary rational Narain lattices and generalize some of our earlier results. In particular in the case of $\R^{2, 2} $, a new interpretation of the Gauss product of binary forms brings new light to a number of related objects--rank 4 rational Narain lattices, over-lattices, rank 2 primitive sublattices of an abstract rank 4 even unimodular lattice U^ 2, and isomorphisms of discriminant groups of rank 2 lattices.

We describe the generalized Casimir operators and their actions on the positive representations Pλ of the modular double of split real quantum groups Uqq (gR). We introduce the notion of virtual highest and lowest weights, and show that the central characters admit positive values for all parameters λ. We show that their image defines a semi-algebraic region bounded by real points of the discriminant variety independent of q, and we discuss explicit examples in the lower rank cases.

An irreducible II_1-subfactor A⊂B is exactly 1-supertransitive if B⊖A is reducible as an A − A bimodule. We classify exactly 1-supertransitive subfactors with index at most 6+1/5, leaving aside the composite subfactors at index exactly 6 where there are severe difficulties. Previously, such subfactors were only known up to index 3+\sqrt{5} ≈ 5.23. Our work is a significant extension, and also shows that index 6 is not an insurmountable barrier.There are exactly three such subfactors with index in (3+\sqrt{5},6+1/5], all with index 3+2\sqrt{2}. One of these comes from SO(3)_q at a root of unity, while the other two appear to be closely related, and are ‘braided up to a sign’.

We construct the positive principal series representations for Uq(gR) where g is of type Bn, Cn, F4 or G2, parametrized by Rn where n is the rank of g. We show that under the representations, the generators of the Langlands dual group Uq(LgR) are related to the generators of Uq(gR) by the transcendental relations. This gives a new and very simple analytic relation between the Langlands dual pair. We define the modified quantum group Uqq(gR)=Uq(gR) ⊗ Uq(LgR) of the modular double and show that the representations of both parts of the modular double commute with each other, and there is an embedding into the q-tori polynomials.
