A presentation for the symplectic blob algebra

Abstract

The symplectic blob algebra bnb_n (nNn \in \mathbb{N}) is a finite dimensional algebra defined by a multiplication rule on a basis of certain diagrams. The rank r(n)r(n) of bnb_n is not known in general, but r(n)/nr(n)/n grows unboundedly with nn. For each bnb_n we define an algebra by presentation, such that the number of generators and relations grows linearly with nn. We prove that these algebras are isomorphic.
