Abstract

We present a new family of quantum Weyl algebras where the polynomial part is the quantum analog of functions on homogeneous spaces corresponding to symmetric matrices, skew symmetric matrices, and the entire space of matrices of a given size. The construction uses twisted tensor products and their deformations combined with invariance properties derived from quantum symmetric pairs. These quantum Weyl algebras admit $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_N)$-module algebra structures compatible with standard ones on the polynomial part, have relations that are expressed nicely via matrices, and are closely related to an algebra arising in the theory of quantum bounded symmetric domains.

On Diagrammatic Categorification of Verma Modules I: Braiding

In this paper, we study the extensions of KLRW algebras to tensor products of Verma module representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. Our motivation is to construct a theory of Khovanov homology for knot complements in $S^3$ (and which also categorifies the Gukov-Manolescu two-variable series for knot complements), which will be done in the second part of this work. We construct the categorification of R-matrices for Verma modules as functors given by derived tensor products with diagrammatic bimodules and explicitly compute their projective resolutions. We also prove these braiding functors induce an action of the braid group on the relevant categories. Then, we describe how to incorporate strands in finite-dimensional representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$, thereby establishing functors that serve as the Khovanov homology on a braid complement. In the case of the unknot, this gives knot homologies in $S^1\times D^2$, which we compare to Annular Khovanov Homology through several examples and show they are very closely related, conjecturing they are of the same dimension. We conclude with a proposal for the categorification of the cups and caps of Verma module colored strands, which we build upon in the next paper.

Some finite dimensional representations of shifted quantum affine algebras of type A

In this paper, we study finite dimensional representations of shifted quantum affine algebras of type A. We give an explicit description of the tensor product of simple evaluation modules of the quantum loop algebra and a one-dimensional representation of the shifted quantum affine algebra under the separation condition. As a consequence, we give the q-characters of some finite dimensional simple modules of the shifted quantum affine algebra.

Gelfand--Tsetlin bases for representations of $\mathrm U_{q}(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$ at roots of unity

In this paper, we construct Gelfand--Tsetlin bases for representations of $\mathrm U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$ at roots of unity. As an application, we obtain explicit bases for certain baby Verma modules of $\mathrm U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_3)$ and determine their composition series.
