چکیده
In this thesis, I present an associative diagram algebra that is a faithful representation of a particular Temperley–Lieb algebra of type affine C, which has a basis indexed by the fully commutative elements of the Coxeter group of the same type. The Coxeter group of type affine C contains an infinite number of fully commutative elements, and so the corresponding Temperley–Lieb algebra is of infinite rank. With the exception of type affine A, all other generalized Temperley–Lieb algebras with known diagrammatic representations are of finite rank. In the finite rank case, counting arguments are employed to prove faithfulness, but these techniques are not available in the affine C case. To prove faithfulness, I classify the fully commutative elements in Coxeter groups of types B and affine C that are irreducible under weak star reductions. The classification of these irreducible elements provides the groundwork for inductive arguments that are used to prove faithfulness. The classification of the weak star irreducible elements of type B also verifies C.K. Fan’s unproved claim about about the set of fully commutative elements in a Coxeter group of type B having no generator appearing in the left or right descent set that can be left or right cancelled, respectively. The results of this thesis will be used to construct a trace on the Hecke algebra of type affine C, which will then be used to compute leading coefficients of certain Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomials in a non-recursive way.

Construction of the diagrammatic version of the affine Temperley-Lieb algebra of type A N as a subring of matrices over the Laurent polynomials is given. We move towards geometrical understanding of cellular structure of the Temperley-Lieb algebra. We represent its center as a coordinate ring of the certain affine algebraic variety and describe this variety constructing its desingularization.
متن کاملThe two-boundary Temperley-Lieb algebra
We study a two-boundary extension of the Temperley-Lieb algebra which has recently arisen in statistical mechanics. This algebra lies in a quotient of the affine Hecke algebra of type C and has a natural diagrammatic representation. The algebra has three parameters and, for generic values of these, we determine its representation theory. We use the action of the centre of the affine Hecke algeb...

We describe a diagrammatic procedure which lifts strict monoidal actions from additive categories to categories of complexes avoiding any use of direct sums. As an application, we prove that every simple transitive 2-representation of the 2-category of projective bimodules over a finite dimensional algebra is equivalent to a cell 2-representation.

We prove the following version of W lodarczyk’s Embedding Theorem: Every normal complex algebraic C∗-variety Y admits an equivariant closed embedding into a toric prevariety X on which C∗ acts as a one-parameter-subgroup of the big torus T ⊂ X. If Y is Q-factorial, then X may be chosen to be simplicial and of affine intersection.
