Superalgebra deformations of web categories: Affine and cyclotomic webs
Abstract
Let be a characteristic zero domain. We define and study a diagrammatic monoidal -linear supercategory associated to any locally unital Frobenius -superalgebra . This category can be viewed variously as an affinization of the finite web category previously defined by the authors and Zhu, as a thickening of the degenerate affine wreath product algebras defined by Savage, or as a Frobenius deformation of affine web categories defined by Song and Wang. We show that there is an asymptotically faithful family of functors from to the monoidal supercategory of endofunctors of -modules for every , and use this to establish a basis of `decorated double coset diagrams' for morphism spaces in . We also define and establish basis results for the cyclotomic quotient category associated with a cyclotomic datum .
