A Categorification of Quantum sl2
In this paper, we categorify the algebra Uq(sl2) with the same approach as in [A. Lauda, Adv. Math. (2010), arXiv:math.QA/0803.3662; M. Khovanov, Comm. Algebra 11 (2001) 5033]. The algebra U =Uq(sl2) is obtained from Uq(sl2) by adjoining a collection of orthogonal idempotents 1λ,λ ∈ P, in which P is...

Zusammenfassung: | In this paper, we categorify the algebra Uq(sl2) with the same approach as in [A. Lauda, Adv. Math. (2010), arXiv:math.QA/0803.3662; M. Khovanov, Comm. Algebra 11 (2001) 5033]. The algebra U =Uq(sl2) is obtained from Uq(sl2) by adjoining a collection of orthogonal idempotents 1λ,λ ∈ P, in which P is the weight lattice of Uq(sl2). Under such construction the algebra U is decomposed into a direct sum λ∈p 1λ,U1λ. We set the collection of λ∈ P as the objects of the category U, 1-morphisms from λ to λ′ are given by 1λ,U1λ, and 2-morphisms are constructed by some semilinear form defined on U. Hence we get a 2-category u from the algebra Uq(sl2). |
