Kq-algebras
Abstract
We introduce the notion of Kq-algebra, a conjectural axiomatization of the fusion algebra of rotation-equivariant BPS line defects in a 4d cal N=2 Supersymmetric Quantum Field Theory. We also introduce the notion of RG flow of Kq-algebras, a conjectural axiomatization of the action of Seiberg-Witten type RG flows on line defects. These definitions enrich the theory of cluster algebras, K-theoretic Coulomb branch algebras, skein algebras and quantum groups.
