Abstract

In this short note we construct an embedding of the planar algebra for Rep(Uq(sl3))\overline{\operatorname{Rep}(U_q(sl_3))} at q=e2πi124q = e^{2\pi i \frac{1}{24}} into the graph planar algebra of di Francesco and Zuber's candidate graph E412\mathcal{E}_4^{12}. Via the graph planar algebra embedding theorem we thus construct a rank 11 module category over Rep(Uq(sl3))\overline{\operatorname{Rep}(U_q(sl_3))} whose graph for action by the vector representation is E412\mathcal{E}_4^{12}. This fills a small gap in the literature on the construction of Rep(Uq(sl3))\overline{\operatorname{Rep}(U_q(sl_3))} module categories. As a consequence of our construction, we obtain the principal graphs of subfactors constructed abstractly by Evans and Pugh.
