Let $\mathfrak{g}_0$ be a simple Lie algebra of type ADE and let $U'_q(\mathfrak{g})$ be the corresponding untwisted quantum affine algebra. We show that there exists an action of the braid group $B(\mathfrak{g}_0)$ on the quantum…

In this paper, we construct a categorical double quantum Heisenberg action on the representation category of finite classical groups $\mathrm{O}_{2n+1}(q)$, $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}(q)$ and $\mathrm{O}^{\pm}_{2n}(q)$ with $q$ odd. Over a field of…
