abstract

In accordance with P. Vogel, a set of algebra structures in Chern-Simons theory can be made universal, independent of a particular family of simple Lie algebras. In particular, this means that various quantities in the adjoint representations of these simple Lie algebras such as dimensions and quantum dimensions, Racah coefficients, etc. are simple rational functions of two parameters on Vogel's plane, giving three lines associated with $sl$, $so/sp$ and exceptional algebras correspondingly. By analyzing the partition function of refined of Chern-Simons theory, it was suggested earlier that the refinement may preserve the universality for simply laced algebras. Here we support this conjecture by analysing the Macdonald dimensions, i.e. values of Macdonald polynomials at $q^\rho$, where $\rho$ is the Weyl vector: there is a universality formula that describes these dimensions for the simply laced algebras as a function on the Vogel's plane.

  1. Torus knots in adjoint representation and Vogel's universality

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Universal adjoint invariants for T[4,n] torus knots are constructed via Vogel's universality, completing the T[4,n] case after previous T[2,n] and T[3,n] results.

  2. Macdonald deformation of Vogel's universality and link hyperpolynomials

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For the adjoint square in ADE Lie algebras, products of Macdonald dimensions with deformed Littlewood-Richardson coefficients are universal, yielding universal formulas for T[2,2n] link hyperpolynomials.

  3. Vogel's universality and Macdonald dimensions

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    The paper gives a single rational formula for adjoint Macdonald dimensions that unifies the simply laced Lie algebras A_n, D_n, E6, E7, E8, plus explicit mixed-root-system dimension formulas.
