Abstract

We define an extension of the affine Brauer algebra, the type B/C affine Brauer algebra. This new algebra contains the hyperoctahedral group and it naturally acts on ENDK(XVk)END_K(X \otimes V^{\otimes k}) for Orthogonal and Symplectic groups. Thus we obtain a compact analogue of Schur-Weyl duality. We study functors Fμ,kF_{\mu,k} from the category of admissible O(p,q)O(p,q) or Sp2n(R)Sp_{2n}(\mathbb{R}) modules to representations of the type B/C affine Brauer algebra Bkθ\mathfrak{B}_k^\theta. Thus providing a Akawaka-Suzuki-esque link between O(p,q)O(p,q) (or Sp2n(R)Sp_{2n}(\mathbb{R})) and Bkθ\mathfrak{B}_k^\theta. Furthermore these functors take non spherical principal series modules to principal series modules for the graded Hecke algebra of type DkD_k, CnkC_{n-k} or BnkB_{n-k}. With this we get a functorial correspondence between admissible simple O(p,q)O(p,q) (or Sp2n(R)Sp_{2n}(\mathbb{R})) modules and graded Hecke algebra modules.
