Abstract

Let Uq(g)U_q'(\mathfrak{g}) be an arbitrary quantum affine algebra of either untwisted or twisted type, and let Cg0\mathscr{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^0 be its Hernandez-Leclerc category. We denote by B\mathsf{B} the braid group determined by the simply-laced finite type Lie algebra g \mathsf{g} associated with Uq(g)U_q'(\mathfrak{g}). For any complete duality datum D\mathbb{D} and any sequence of simple roots of g\mathsf{g}, we construct the corresponding affine cuspidal modules and affine determinantial modules and study their key properties including T-systems. Then, for any element bb of the positive braid monoid B+\mathsf{B}^+, we introduce a distinguished subcategory CgD(b)\mathscr{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^{\mathbb{D}}(b) of Cg0\mathscr{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^0 categorifying the specialization of the bosonic extension A^(b)\widehat{\mathcal{A}}(b) at q1/2=1q^{1/2}=1 and investigate its properties including the categorical PBW structure. We finally prove that the subcategory CgD(b)\mathscr{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^{\mathbb{D}}(b) provides a monoidal categorification of the (quantum) cluster algebra A^(b)\widehat{\mathcal{A}}(b), which significantly generalizes the earlier monoidal categorification developed by the authors.
