Categorification of the Jones-wenzl Projectors
The Jones-Wenzl projectors pn play a central role in quantum topology, underlying the construction of SU(2) topological quantum field theories and quantum spin networks. We construct chain complexes Pn , whose graded Euler characteristic is the “classical” projector pn in the Temperley-Lieb algebra. We show that the Pn are idempotents and uniquely defined up to homotopy. Our results fit within ...

متن کاملCluster Monomials Are Dual Canonical
Kang, Kashiwara, Kim and Oh have proved that cluster monomials lie in the dual canonical basis, under a symmetric type assumiption. This involves constructing a monoidal categorification of a quantum cluster algebra using representations of KLR algebras. We use a folding technique to generalise their results to all Lie types.
