The statistics of meanders is studied in connection with the Temperley-Lieb algebra. Each (multi-component) meander corresponds to a pair of reduced elements of the algebra. The assignment of a weight $q$ per connected component of meander…
We discuss generalizations of the Temperley-Lieb algebra in the Potts and XXZ models. These can be used to describe the addition of different types of integrable boundary terms. We use the Temperley-Lieb algebra and its one-boundary,…
A reducible representation of the Temperley-Lieb algebra is constructed on the tensor product of n-dimensional spaces. One obtains as a centraliser of this action a quantum algebra (a quasi-triangular Hopf algebra) U_q with a representation…
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.
We give an historical survey of some of the original basic algebraic and combinatorial results on Temperley-Lieb algebras, with a focus on certain results that have become folklore.
We give an axiomatic framework for studying the representation theory of towers of algebras. We introduce a new class of algebras, contour algebras, generalising (and interpolating between) blob algebras and cyclotomic Temperley-Lieb…
We determine the representations of the Yokonuma-Temperley-Lieb algebra, which is defined as a quotient of the Yokonuma-Hecke algebra by generalising the construction of the classical Temperley-Lieb algebra. We then deduce the dimension of…
Graham and Lehrer (1998) introduced a Temperley-Lieb category $\mathsf{\widetilde{TL}}$ whose objects are the non-negative integers and the morphisms in $\mathsf{Hom}(n,m)$ are the link diagrams from $n$ to $m$ nodes. The Temperley-Lieb…
We give a combinatorial description of a new diagram algebra, the partial Temperley--Lieb algebra, arising as the generic centralizer algebra $\mathrm{End}_{\mathbf{U}_q(\mathfrak{gl}_2)}(V^{\otimes k})$, where $V = V(0) \oplus V(1)$ is the…
In a Coxeter group $W$, an element is fully commutative if any two of its reduced expressions can be linked by a series of commutation of adjacent letters. These elements have particularly nice combinatorial properties, and also index a…
The Temperley-Lieb algebra \tln(\beta) can be defined as the set of rectangular diagrams with n points on each of their vertical sides, with all points joined pairwise by non-intersecting strings. The multiplication is then the…
Our aim in this paper is to trace some of the surprising and beautiful connections which are beginning to emerge between a number of apparently disparate topics: Knot Theory, Categorical Quantum Mechanics, and Logic and Computation. We…
Let $k$ be an arbitrary field and let $q \in k\setminus\{0\}$. In this paper we use the known tilting theory for the quantum group $U_q(sl_2)$ to obtain the dimensions of simple modules for the Temperley-Lieb algebras $TL_n(q+q^{-1})$ and…
The basic properties of the Temperley-Lieb algebra $TL_n$ with parameter $\beta = q + q^{-1}$, for $q$ any non-zero complex number, are reviewed in a pedagogical way. The link and standard (cell) modules that appear in numerous physical…
We give an elementary proof of isomorphism of the blob (diagram) algebra and the corresponding extended Temperley-Lieb algebra (defined by presentation).
We define a tower of affine Temperley-Lieb algebras of type $\tilde{A_{n}}$ and we define Markov elements in those algebras. We prove that any trace over an affine Temperley-Lieb algebras of type $\tilde{A_{2}}$ is uniquely defined by its…
We show that the homology of any Temperley-Lieb algebra $\mathcal{TL}_n(a)$ on an odd number of strands vanishes in positive degrees. This improves a result obtained by Boyd-Hepworth. In addition we present alternative arguments for the…
When the parameter $q$ is a root of unity, the Temperley-Lieb algebra $TL_n(q)$ is non-semisimple for almost all $n$. Jones showed that there is a canonical symmetric bilinear form on $TL_n(q)$, whose radical $R_n(q)$ is generated by a…
New sets of rank n-representations of Temperley-Lieb algebra TL_N(q) are constructed. They are characterized by two matrices obeying a generalization of the complex Hadamard property. Partial classifications for the two matrices are given,…
We define analogs of the Jucys-Murphy elements for the affine Temperley-Lieb algebra and give their explicit expansion in terms of the basis of planar Brauer diagrams. These Jucys-Murphy elements are a family of commuting elements in the…
