A ``dilute'' generalisation of the Birman--Wenzl--Murakami algebra is considered. It can be ``Baxterised'' to a solution of the Yang--Baxter algebra. The $D^{(2)}_{n+1}$ vertex models are examples of corresponding solvable lattice models…
This article was submitted to a volume under preparation, with Benson Farb as the editor, on the topic of open problems in surface mapping class groups. The braid group B_n is the mapping class group of an n-times punctured disk. The…
We determine the structure of the cyclotomic Hecke algebra corresponding to the complex reflection group $G_{25}$ also when it is not semisimple, as long as the generators are diagonalizable. In particular, we classify all simple…
We describe how certain cyclotomic Nazarov-Wenzl algebras occur as endomorphism rings of projective modules in a parabolic version of BGG category O of type $D$. Furthermore we study a family of subalgebras of these endomorphism rings which…
Braided doubles provide a unifying framework for classical and quantum universal enveloping algebras and rational Cherednik algebras. They are a class of algebras with triangular decomposition, arising from a deformation problem, the…
We study cyclotomic quiver Hecke algebras $R^{\Lambda_0}(\beta)$ in type $A^{(2)}_{2\ell}$, where $\Lambda_0$ is the fundamental weight. The algebras are natural $A^{(2)}_{2\ell}$-type analogue of Iwahori-Hecke algebras associated with the…
We introduce and develop a language of semigroups over the braid groups for a study of braid monodromy factorizations (bmf's) of plane algebraic curves and other related objects. As an application we give a new proof of Orevkov's theorem on…
In the continuity of our previous paper arXiv:1509.05516, we define three new algebras, $A_{n}(a,b,c)$, $B_{n}$ and $C_{n}$, that are close to the braid algebra. They allow to build solutions to the braided Yang-Baxter equation with…
A new method for deriving universal \v{R} matrices from braid group representation is discussed. In this case, universal \v{R} operators can be defined and expressed in terms of products of braid group generators. The advantage of this…
In this paper, we classify the singular parameters for the Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebra over an arbitrary field. Equivalently, we give a criterion for the Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebra being Morita equivalent to the direct sum of the Hecke…
We prove that cyclotomic Yokonuma--Hecke algebras of type A are cyclotomic quiver Hecke algebras and we give an explicit isomorphism with its inverse, using a similar result of Brundan and Kleshchev on cyclotomic Hecke algebras. The quiver…
We relate the structure of cyclotomic and degenerate cyclotomic BMW algebras, for arbitrary parameter values, to that for admissible parameter values. In particular, we show that these algebras are cellular. We characterize those parameter…
Following Nazarov's suggestion~\cite{Naz1}, we refer to the cyclotomic Nazarov-Wenzl algebra as the cyclotomic Brauer algebra. When the cyclotomic Brauer algebra is isomorphic to the endomorphism algebra of $M_{I_i, r}$-- the tensor product…
We find representation type of the cyclotomic quiver Hecke algebras of level two in affine type A. In particular, we have determined representation type for all the block algebras of Hecke algebras of classical type (except for…
A BMW group of degree $(m,n)$ is a group that acts simply transitively on vertices of the product of two regular trees of degrees $m$ and $n$. We show that the number of commensurability classes of BMW groups of degree $(m,n)$ is bounded…
We give a presentation of the Kauffman (BMW) skein algebra of the torus, which is the "type BCD" analogue of the Homflypt skein algebra of torus which was computed by the first and third authors. In the appendix we show this presentation is…
Explicit formulas for the symmetrizer and the antisymmetrizer of the Birman-Wenzl-Murakami algebras BWM(r,q)_n are given.
In this paper we prove Schur-Weyl duality between the symplectic group and Brauer algebra over an arbitrary infinite field $K$. We show that the natural homomorphism from the Brauer algebra $B_n(-2m)$ to the endomorphism algebra of tensor…
In this paper we consider all possible generalizations of the B-type Hecke algebras, namely the cyclotomic and what we call 'generalized', and we construct Markov traces on each of them, so as to obtain all possible different levels of…
We define and study an action of the symmetric group on the Yokonuma--Hecke algebra. This leads to the definition of two classes of algebras. The first one is connected with the image of the algebra of the braid group inside the…
