We define a commuting family of operators $T_0,T_1,...,T_n$ in the Temperley--Lieb algebra $\mathcal{A}_n(x)$ of type $A_{n-1}$. Using an appropriate analogue to Murphy basis of the Iwahori--Hecke algebra of the symmetric group, we describe…
Quantum knot invariants (like colored HOMFLY-PT or Kauffman polynomials) are a distinguished class of non-perturbative topological invariants. Any known way to construct them (via Chern-Simons theory or quantum R-matrix) starts with a…
The Jones polynomial is a famous link invariant that can be defined diagrammatically via a skein relation. Khovanov homology is a richer link invariant that categorifies the Jones polynomial. Using spectral sequences, we obtain a skein-type…
A relation for the Jones-Wenzl projector is proven. It has the following consequence for representations of the Temperley-Lieb algebra on tensor product spaces: if such a representation is built from a Hermitian $n \times n$ matrix $T$ of…
We construct a new inductive basis of the Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebra. Using it, we provide a new proof of the existence of the Markov trace on the BMW algebras affording the two-variable Kauffman polynomial. We prove also that all the…
Khovanov homology is a topological knot invariant that categorifies the Jones polynomial, recognizes the unknot, and is conjectured to appear as an observable in $4D$ supersymmetric Yang--Mills theory. Despite its rich mathematical and…
We investigate the representation theory of the valenced Temperley-Lieb algebras in mixed characteristic. These algebras, as described in characteristic zero by Flores and Peltola, arise naturally in statistical physics and conformal field…
Representations of braid group obtained from rational conformal field theories can be used to obtain explicit representations of Temperley-Lieb-Jones algebras. The method is described in detail for SU(2)$_k$ Wess - Zumino conformal field…
A generalization of the Kauffman tangle algebra is given for Coxeter type Dn. The tangles involve a pole or order 2. The algebra is shown to be isomorphic to the Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebra of the same type. This result extends the…
We propose a gauge model of quantum electrodynamics (QED) and its nonabelian generalization from which we derive knot invariants such as the Jones polynomial. Our approach is inspired by the work of Witten who derived knot invariants from…
Temperley-Lieb algebras have been generalized to web spaces for rank 2 simple Lie algebras. Using these webs, we find a complete description of the Jones-Wenzl idempotents for the quantum sl(3) and sp(4) by single clasp expansions. We…
The discovery of polynomial invariants of knots and links, ignited by V. F. R. Jones, leads to the formulation of polynomial invariants of spatial graphs. The Yamada polynomial, one of such invariants, is frequently utilized for practical…
We define oriented Temperley--Lieb algebras for classical Hermitian symmetric spaces. This allows us to explain the existence of closed combinatorial formulae for the Kazhdan--Lusztig polynomials for these spaces.
Based on the Temperley--Lieb algebra we define a class of one-dimensional Hamiltonians with nearest and next-nearest neighbour interactions. Using the regular representation we give ground states of this model as words of the algebra. Two…
The centralizer of the image of the diagonal embedding of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ in the tensor product of three irreducible representations is examined in a Schur-Weyl duality spirit. The aim is to offer a description in terms of generators…
We find a single two-parameter skein relation on trivalent graphs, the quantum exceptional relation, that specializes to a skein relation associated to each exceptional Lie algebra (in the adjoint representation). If a slight strengthening…
We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a type D Temperley-Lieb algebra ${\rm TLD}_n(\delta)$ being semi-simple by studying branching rule for cell modules. As a byproduct, our result is used to study the so-called forked…
In this work we demonstrate that the q-numbers and their two-parameter generalization, the q,p-numbers, can be used to obtain some polynomial invariants for torus knots and links. First, we show that the q-numbers, which are closely…
In this paper, we define an invariant, which we believe should be the substitute for total K-theory in the case when there is one distinguished ideal. Moreover, some diagrams relating the new groups to the ordinary K-groups with…
We construct gradings on the simple modules of 2-boundary Temperley--Lieb algebras and symplectic blob algebras by realising the latter algebras as quotients of Varagnolo--Vasserot's orientifold quiver Hecke algebras. We prove that the…
