Our proof also features a key idea due to Jung which involves an iterative estimate for the covering numbers of microstate spaces. We also use the works of Shlyakhtenko and Shalom to give a short proof that the von Neumann algebras of sofic groups with Property (T) are strongly 1 bounded, which is a special case of another result by the authors.","PeriodicalId":54780,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Noncommutative Geometry","volume":"152 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136234395","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We begin this paper by showing that every such variety admits a universal equivariant Poisson deformation and a universal equivariant quantization with respect to a reductive group acting on it by $C^times$-equivariant Poisson automorphisms. We go on to study these definitions in the context of nilpotent Slodowy slices. First, we give a complete description of the cases in which the finite $W$-algebra is a universal filtered quantization of the slice, building on the work of Lehn–Namikawa–Sorger. This leads to a near-complete classification of the filtered quantizations of nilpotent Slodowy slices. The subregular slices in non-simply laced Lie algebras are especially interesting: with some minor restrictions on Dynkin type, we prove that the finite $W$-algebra is a universal equivariant quantization with respect to the Dynkin automorphisms coming from the unfolding of the Dynkin diagram. This can be seen as a non-commutative analogue of Slodowy's theorem. Finally, we apply this result to give a presentation of the subregular finite $W$-algebra of type $mathsf{B}$ as a quotient of a shifted Yangian.","PeriodicalId":54780,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Noncommutative Geometry","volume":"27 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136233439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A novel property is that a cocommutative post-Hopf algebra gives rise to a generalized Grossman–Larson product, which leads to a subadjacent Hopf algebra and can be used to construct solutions to the Yang–Baxter equation. Then, we introduce the notion of relative Rota–Baxter operator on Hopf algebras. A cocommutative post-Hopf algebra gives rise to a relative Rota–Baxter operator on its subadjacent Hopf algebra.
