Full chains of twists for symplectic algebras

Abstract

The problem of constructing the explicit form for full twist deformations of simple Lie algebras g with twist carriers containing the maximal nilpotent subalgebra N^+(g) is studied. Our main tool is the sequence of regular subalgebras g_i in U(g) that become primitive under the action of extended jordanian twists F_E: U(g) -> U_E(g). It is demonstrated that the structure of the sequence {g_i} is defined by the extended Dynkin diagram of algebra g. To construct the injection of g_i in U_E(g) the special deformations of algebras U_E(g) are performed. They are reduced to the (cohomologically trivial) twists F_s. Thus it is proved that full chains of twists can be written in the canonical form F_B = F'_N ... F'_2F'_1. The links F'_i in such chains must contain not only the extended twists F_E but also the factors F_s whose form depend on the type of the series of classical algebra g. The explicit forms of universal R-matrices (and the R-matrices in the fundamental representations) corresponding to full chains of twists for classical simple Lie algebras are found. The properties of the construction are illustrated by the example of full chain of extended twists for algebra sp(3).

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.
