Markov elements in affine Temperley-Lieb algebras

Group Theory 2015-01-28 v1

Abstract

We define a tower of affine Temperley-Lieb algebras of type An~\tilde{A_{n}} and we define Markov elements in those algebras. We prove that any trace over an affine Temperley-Lieb algebras of type A2~\tilde{A_{2}} is uniquely defined by its values on the Markov elements.

Comments

We proved in arXiv:1311.7092 that any trace over an affine Temperley-Lieb algebras of type $\tilde{A_{n}}$ is uniquely defined by its values on the Markov elements, for $n\ge 3$. We here provide the proof for $n=2$ for completeness
