Abstract

In a recent paper, the author defined an operation of tensor product for a large class of 22-representations of U+\mathcal{U}^{+}, the positive half of the 22-category associated to sl2\mathfrak{sl}_{2}. In this paper, we prove that the operation extends to give an operation of tensor product for 22-representations of the full 22-category U\mathcal{U}: when the inputs are 22-representations of the full U\mathcal{U}, the 22-product is also a 22-representation of the full U\mathcal{U}. As in the previous paper, the 22-product is given for a simple 22-representation L(1)\mathcal{L}(1) and an abelian 22-representation V\mathcal{V} taken from the 22-category of algebras. This is the first construction of an operation of tensor product for higher representations of a full Lie algebra in the abelian setting.
