The marked Brauer category

Abstract

We introduce the marked Brauer algebra and the marked Brauer category. These generalize the analogous constructions for the ordinary Brauer algebra to the setting of a homogeneous bilinear form on a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-graded vector space. We classify the simple modules of the marked Brauer algebra over any field of characteristic not two. Under suitable assumptions we show that the marked Brauer algebra is in Schur-Weyl duality with the Lie superalgebra, $\mathfrak{g}$, of linear maps which leave the bilinear form invariant. We also provide a classification of the indecomposable summands of the tensor powers of the natural representation for $\mathfrak{g}$ under those same assumptions. In particular, our results generalize Moon's work on the Lie superalgebra of type $\mathfrak{p}(n)$ and provide a unifying conceptual explanation for his results.

On the derived Hall algebra of a graded gentle one-cycle algebra I: the triangle structure

Under a mild condition, the perfect derived category and the finite-dimensional derived category of a graded gentle one-cycle algebra are described as twisted root categories of certain infinite quivers of type $\mathbb{A}_\infty^\infty$. As a consequence, it is shown that if $\ct$ is the perfect (respectively, finite-dimensional) derived category of such a graded gentle one-cycle algebra, then its triangle structure is up to triangle equivalence determined by the underlying additive category.

Towards Monoidal Categorifications of Twisted Products of Flag Varieties

Let $G$ be a simple, simply connected algebraic group of simply-laced type. For a positive braid word $β$ and $v\leδ(β)$, we study the cluster algebra associated with the twisted product of flag varieties $\mathring{\mathcal Z}_{v,β}$. We compare its Bao--Ye seed with a right-inductive weave seed and obtain local acyclicity and equality of the cluster and upper cluster algebras. Using Lusztig parameters in a bosonic extension algebra, we construct a monoidal subcategory $\mathscr C_{v,β}$ of a Hernandez--Leclerc category and prove that its Grothendieck ring contains the integral cluster algebra with noninvertible frozen variables. Every cluster monomial is the class of a real simple object of $\mathscr C_{v,β}$. The reverse inclusion, which would give a full monoidal categorification, is left as a conjecture.

Linear independence of global monomials on positive spaces

In this paper, we prove that global monomials on positive spaces are linearly independent, extending the basic fact that Laurent monomials in a Laurent polynomial algebra are linearly independent to a much more general setting. We also establish a global monomial avoidance phenomenon for positive spaces. Our approach is based on the study of Newton polytopes of Laurent expansions. These general results apply to positive spaces arising from cluster algebras (including the totally sign-skew-symmetric case), $Y$-patterns, and Laurent phenomenon algebras whose clusters are related by subtraction-free birational transformations. In particular, we obtain the proper Laurent monomial property and the linear independence of cluster monomials for all cluster algebras and Laurent phenomenon algebras under consideration. Notably, the proper Laurent monomial property follows from the global monomial avoidance phenomenon for positive spaces.
