$p$-Jones-Wenzl idempotents

For a prime number $p$ and any natural number $n$ we introduce, by giving an explicit recursive formula, the $p$-Jones-Wenzl projector ${}^p\operatorname{JW}_n$, an element of the Temperley-Lieb algebra $TL_n(2)$ with coefficients in ${\mathbb F}_p$. We prove that these projectors give the indecomposable objects in the $\tilde{A}_1$-Hecke category over ${\mathbb F}_p$, or equivalently, they give the projector in $\mathrm{End}_{\mathrm{SL}_2(\overline{{\mathbb F}_p})}(({\mathbb F}_p^2)^{\otimes n})$ to the top tilting module. The way in which we find these projectors is by categorifying the fractal appearing in the expression of the $p$-canonical basis in terms of the Kazhdan-Lusztig basis for $\tilde{A}_1$.

A non-perverse Soergel bimodule in type A

A basic question concerning indecomposable Soergel bimodules is to understand their endomorphism rings. In characteristic zero all degree-zero endomorphisms are isomorphisms (a fact proved by Elias and the second author) which implies the Kazhdan-Lusztig conjectures. More recently, many examples in positive characteristic have been discovered with larger degree zero endomorphisms. These give counter-examples to expected bounds in Lusztig's conjecture. Here we prove the existence of indecomposable Soergel bimodules in type A having non-zero endomorphisms of negative degree. This gives the existence of a non-perverse parity sheaf in type A.

Gentle introduction to Soergel bimodules I: The basics

This paper is the first of a series of introductory papers on the fascinating world of Soergel bimodules. It is combinatorial in nature and should be accessible to a broad audience. The objective of this paper is to help the reader feel comfortable calculating with Soergel bimodules and to explain some of the important open problems in the field. The motivations, history and relations to other fields will be developed in subsequent papers of this series.

Soergel bimodules for universal Coxeter groups

We produce an explicit recursive formula which computes the idempotent projecting to any indecomposable Soergel bimodule for a universal Coxeter system. This gives the exact set of primes for which the positive characteristic analogue of Soergel's conjecture holds. Along the way, we introduce the multicolored Temperley-Lieb algebra. An appendix by Ben Webster gives a precise condition on the base ring for a Jones-Wenzl projector to exist.

Standard objects in 2-braid groups

For any Coxeter system we establish the existence (conjectured by Rouquier) of analogues of standard and costandard objects in 2-braid groups. This generalizes a known extension vanishing formula in the BGG category O.

New bases of some Hecke algebras via Soergel bimodules

For extra-large Coxeter systems (m(s,r)>3), we construct a natural and explicit set of Soergel bimodules D={D_w}_{w\in W} such that each D_w contains as a direct summand (or is equal to) the indecomposable Soergel bimodule B_w. When decategorified, we prove that D gives rise to a set {d_w}_{w\in W} that is actually a basis of the Hecke algebra. This basis is close to the Kazhdan-Lusztig basis and satisfies a ``positivity condition''.

Sur la catégorie des bimodules de Soergel

The Soergel category B of a Coxeter system (W,S) is a bimodule category over a polynomial algebra on which W acts. It's a categorification of the Hecke Algebra of (W,S). In this article we give a combinatorial description of morphism spaces in B. As a corollary, we give an analogous description of the morphisms in O_0-proj, where O_0 is the principal block of the BGG category O. ----- La catégorie B de Soergel d'un système de Coxeter (W,S) est une catégorie de bimodules sur une algèbre de polynômes sur laquelle W agit. C'est une catégorification de l'algèbre de Hecke de (W,S). Dans cet article nous donnons une description combinatoire des espaces de morphismes dans B. En corollaire, on obtient une description analogue des morphismes dans O_0-proj, où O_0 est le bloc principal de la catégorie O de BGG.

Equivalences entre conjectures de Soergel

Soergel's category B_k(V) over a field k is defined from a Coxeter system (W,S) and a k-linear representation V of W. It's a categorification of the Hecke algebra of (W,S). In this article we prove that for some representations V and V' of W, Soergel's conjecture over B_k(V') is equivalent to that over B_k(V). In particular, when k=IR we can choose V' to be the geometric representation.
