Abstract

Let k\mathbb{k} be a characteristic zero domain. For a locally unital k\mathbb{k}-superalgebra AA with distinguished idempotents IIand even subalgebra aA0ˉa \subseteq A_{\bar 0}, we define and study an associated diagrammatic monoidal k\mathbb{k}-linear supercategory WebIA,a\mathbf{Web}^{A,a}_I. This supercategory yields a diagrammatic description of the generalized Schur algebras TaA(n,d)T^A_a(n,d). We also show there is an asymptotically faithful functor from WebIA,a\mathbf{Web}^{A,a}_I to the monoidal supercategory of gln(A)\mathfrak{gl}_n(A)-modules generated by symmetric powers of the natural module. When this functor is full, the single diagrammatic supercategory WebIA,a\mathbf{Web}^{A,a}_I provides a combinatorial description of this module category for all n1n \geq 1. We also use these results to establish Howe dualities between glm(A)\mathfrak{gl}_{m}(A) and gln(A)\mathfrak{gl}_{n}(A) when AA is semisimple.
