Algebraic basics on Temperley-Lieb algebras are proved in an elementary and straightforward way with the help of tensor categories behind them.
The Jones-Wenzl projectors are particular elements of the Temperley-Lieb algebra essential to the construction of quantum 3-manifold invariants. As a first step toward categorifying quantum 3-manifold invariants, Cooper and Krushkal…
The two-colored Temperley-Lieb algebra $2\mathrm{TL}_R({}_s {n})$ is a generalization of the Temperley-Lieb algebra. The analogous two-colored Jones-Wenzl projector $\mathrm{JW}_R({}_s {n}) \in 2\mathrm{TL}_R({}_s {n})$ plays an important…
When the parameter $q$ is a root of unity, the Temperley-Lieb algebra $TL_n(q)$ is non-semisimple for almost all $n$. In this work, using cellular methods, we give explicit generating functions for the dimensions of all the simple…
Affine and periodic Temperley-Lieb algebras are families of diagrammatic algebras that find diverse applications in mathematics and physics. These algebras are infinite dimensional, yet most of their interesting modules are finite. In this…
The Temperley-Lieb algebra is a fundamental component of SU(2) topological quantum field theories. We construct chain complexes corresponding to minimal idempotents in the Temperley-Lieb algebra. Our results apply to the framework which…
We discuss a new perspective on Khovanov homology, using categorifications of tensor products. While in many ways more technically demanding than Khovanov's approach (and its extension by Bar-Natan), this has distinct advantage of directly…
The Jones-Wenzl idempotents of the Temperley-Lieb algebra are celebrated elements defined over characteristic zero and for generic loop parameter. Given pointed field $(R, \delta)$, we extend the existing results of Burrull, Libedinsky and…
We give presentations, by means of diagrammatic generators and relations, of the analogues of the Temperley-Lieb algebras associated as Hecke algebra quotients to Coxeter graphs of type B and $D$. This generalizes Kauffman's diagram…
We give a simple, combinatorial construction of a unital, spherical, non-degenerate $\ast$-planar algebra over the ring $\mathbb{Z}[q^{1/2},q^{-1/2}]$. This planar algebra is similar in spirit to the Temperley-Lieb planar algebra, but…
Just as the Temperley-Lieb algebra is a good place to compute the Jones polynomial, the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of a disk with $2k$ colored points on the boundary, each with color $n$, is a good place to compute the $n^{th}$ colored…
We introduce a quotient of the affine Temperley-Lieb category that encodes all weight-preserving linear maps between finite-dimensional sl(2)-representations. We study the diagrammatic idempotents that correspond to projections onto…
We give a diagrammatic presentation for the category of Soergel bimodules for the dihedral group W . The (two-colored) Temperley-Lieb category is embedded inside this category as the degree 0 morphisms between color-alternating objects. The…
Generalized Temperley-Lieb-Jones (TLJ) 2-categories associated to weighted bidirected graphs were introduced in unpublished work of Morrison and Walker. We introduce unitary modules for these generalized TLJ 2-categories as strong…
By studying a categorification of the antisymmetriser quasi-idempotent in the Hecke algebra, we derive a closed formula for the Jones-Wenzl idempotent in the Temperley-Lieb algebra. In particular, we show that when the idempotent is…
We use the machinery of categorified Jones-Wenzl projectors to construct a categorification of a type A Reshetikhin-Turaev invariant of oriented framed tangles where each strand is labeled by an arbitrary finite-dimensional representation.…
This article concerns a generalization of the Temperley-Lieb algebra, important in applications to conformal field theory. We call this algebra the valenced Temperley-Lieb algebra. We prove salient facts concerning this algebra and its…
We explicitly describe the category of modules of the Temperley-Lieb algebra $\mathrm{TL}_n(\beta)$ under specialization $\beta=0$ for even $n$ in terms of a quiver algebra, analogous to a result of Berest-Etingof-Ginzburg. In particular,…
The monoidal category of Soergel bimodules categorifies the Hecke algebra of a finite Weyl group. In the case of the symmetric group, morphisms in this category can be drawn as graphs in the plane. We define a quotient category, also given…
We develop some foundations of commutative algebra, with a view towards algebraic geometry, in symmetric tensor categories. Most results establish analogues of classical theorems, in tensor categories which admit a tensor functor to some…
