Abstract

Seven different triple sum formulas for $9j$ coefficients of the quantum algebra $u_q(2)$ are derived, using for these purposes the usual expansion of $q$-$9j$ coefficients in terms of $q$-$6j$ coefficients and recent summation formula of twisted $q$-factorial series (resembling the very well-poised basic hypergeometric $_5\phi_4$ series) as a $q$-generalization of Dougall's summation formula of the very well-poised hypergeometric $_4F_3(-1)$ series. This way for $q=1$ the new proof of the known triple sum formula is proposed, as well as six new triple sum formulas for $9j$ coefficients of the SU(2) group, in the angular momentum theory. The mutual rearrangement possibilities of the derived triple sum formulas by means of the Chu--Vandermonde summation formulas are considered and applied to derive several versions of double sum formulas for the stretched $q$-$9j$ coefficients, which give new rearrangement and summation formulas of special Kamp\'e de F\'eriet functions and their $q$-generalizations. Several fourfold sum formulas [with each sum of the $_5F_4(1)$ or $_5\phi_4$ type] for the $12j$ coefficients of the second kind (without braiding) of the SU(2) and $u_q(2)$ are proposed, as well as expressions with five sums [of the $_4F_3(1)$ and $_3F_2(1)$ or $_4\phi_3$ and $_3\phi_2$ type] for the $12j$ coefficients of the first kind (with braiding) instead of the usual expansion in terms of $q$-$6j$ coefficients. Stretched and doubly stretched $q$-$12j$ coefficients [as triple, double or single sums, related to composed or separate hypergeometric $_4F_3(1)$ and $_5F_4(1)$ or $_4\phi_3$ and $_5\phi_4$ series, respectively] are considered.

On Diagrammatic Categorification of Verma Modules I: Braiding

In this paper, we study the extensions of KLRW algebras to tensor products of Verma module representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. Our motivation is to construct a theory of Khovanov homology for knot complements in $S^3$ (and which also categorifies the Gukov-Manolescu two-variable series for knot complements), which will be done in the second part of this work. We construct the categorification of R-matrices for Verma modules as functors given by derived tensor products with diagrammatic bimodules and explicitly compute their projective resolutions. We also prove these braiding functors induce an action of the braid group on the relevant categories. Then, we describe how to incorporate strands in finite-dimensional representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$, thereby establishing functors that serve as the Khovanov homology on a braid complement. In the case of the unknot, this gives knot homologies in $S^1\times D^2$, which we compare to Annular Khovanov Homology through several examples and show they are very closely related, conjecturing they are of the same dimension. We conclude with a proposal for the categorification of the cups and caps of Verma module colored strands, which we build upon in the next paper.

Some finite dimensional representations of shifted quantum affine algebras of type A

In this paper, we study finite dimensional representations of shifted quantum affine algebras of type A. We give an explicit description of the tensor product of simple evaluation modules of the quantum loop algebra and a one-dimensional representation of the shifted quantum affine algebra under the separation condition. As a consequence, we give the q-characters of some finite dimensional simple modules of the shifted quantum affine algebra.
