Webs give a diagrammatic calculus for spaces of tensor invariants. We introduce hourglass plabic graphs as a new avatar of webs, and use these to give the first rotation-invariant $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_4)$-web basis, a long-sought object. The…
G.-Pechenik-Pfannerer-Striker-Swanson applied hourglass plabic graphs to construct web bases for spaces of tensor invariants of fundamental representations of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_4)$, extending Kuperberg's celebrated basis for…
Webs are graphical objects that give a tangible, combinatorial way to compute and classify tensor invariants. Recently, [Gaetz, Pechenik, Pfannerer, Striker, Swanson 2023+] found a rotation-invariant web basis for $\mathrm{SL}_4$, as well…
Webs are planar graphs with boundary that describe morphisms in a diagrammatic representation category for $\mathfrak{sl}_k$. They are studied extensively by knot theorists because braiding maps provide a categorical way to express link…
We show that Lusztig's canonical basis for the degree two part of the Grassmannian coordinate ring is given by SL(k) web diagrams. Equivalently, we show that every SL(2) web immanant of a plabic graph for Gr(k,n) is an SL(k) web invariant.
Given a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we can represent invariants of tensor products of fundamental representations of the quantum enveloping algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ using particular directed graphs called webs. In particular…
This is the first in a series of papers devoted to generalisations of statistical loop models. We define a lattice model of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$ webs on the honeycomb lattice, for $n \ge 2$. It is a statistical model of closed, cubic…
Webs are a kind of planar, directed, edge-labeled graph that encode invariant vectors for quantum representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_n$. The theory of webs developed organically for $\mathfrak{sl}_2$, where they are also known as noncrossing…
We introduce a new rotation-invariant web basis for a family of Specht modules $S^{(d^3, 1^{n-3d})}$, indexed by normal plabic graphs satisfying a degree condition and resembling $A_2$ webs. We show that the $\mathfrak{S}_n$ action on our…
We study a twisted version of Fraser, Lam, and Le's higher boundary measurement map, using face weights instead of edge weights, thereby providing Laurent polynomial expansions, in Pl\"ucker coordinates, for twisted web immanants for…
Given a simple algebraic group $G$, a web is a directed trivalent graph with edges labelled by dominant minuscule weights. There is a natural surjection of webs onto the invariant space of tensor products of minuscule representations.…
We give an explicit graded cellular basis of the $\mathfrak{sl}_3$-web algebra $K_S$. In order to do this, we identify Kuperberg's basis for the $\mathfrak{sl}_3$-web space $W_S$ with a version of Leclerc-Toffin's intermediate crystal basis…
The irreducible representations of symmetric groups can be realized as certain graded pieces of invariant rings, equivalently as global sections of line bundles on partial flag varieties. There are various ways to choose useful bases of…
Temperley-Lieb algebras have been generalized to sl(3) web spaces. Since a cubic bipartite planar graph with suitable directions on edges is a web, the quantum sl(3) invariants naturally extend to all cubic bipartite planar graphs. First we…
We continue our work on lattice models of webs, which generalise the well-known loop models to allow for various kinds of bifurcations [arXiv:2101.00282, arXiv:2107.10106]. Here we define new web models corresponding to each of the rank-two…
We compare two natural bases for the invariant space of a tensor product of irreducible representations of A_2, or sl(3). One basis is the web basis, defined from a skein theory called the combinatorial A_2 spider. The other basis is the…
We define parameter dependent $\mathfrak{gl}_2$-foams and their associated web and arc algebras, and verify that they specialize to several known $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ or $\mathfrak{gl}_2$ constructions related to higher link and tangle…
Webs and Springer fibers are separately important objects in representation theory: webs give a diagrammatic calculus for tensor invariants of $\mathfrak{sl}_k$, and the cohomology group of Springer fibers can be used to construct the…
In this work we will study the universal labeling algebra A(Gamma), a related algebra B(Gamma), and their behavior as invariants of layered graphs. We will introduce the notion of an upper vertex-like basis, which allows us to recover…
We prove that under mild hypothesis rational maps on a surface preserving webs are of Latt\`es type. We classify endomorphisms of P^2 preserving webs, extending former results of Dabija-Jonsson.
