Visualizing diagram factorizations in Temperley–Lieb algebras, Part 2

This talk is a continued exploration and discussion of new results from "Visualizing diagram factorizations in Temperley--Lieb algebras, Part 1" by Michael Hastings (NAU). The diagrammatic representation is like that of type A (introduced in Part 1) with a relation decorated diagrams. Multiplying diagram is easy to do. However, taking a given diagram and finding the corresponding reduced factorization is generally difficult. We have an efficient (and colorful) algorithm for obtaining a reduced factorization for Temperley-Lieb diagrams of type B.

This talk was given by my undergraduate research student Sarah Salmon (Northern Arizona University) on March 1, 2014 at the Southwestern Undergraduate Mathematics Research Conference (SUnMaRC) at Mesa Community College, Mesa, AZ. This joint work with Michael Hastings.

  2. Type A Temperley–Lieb diagrams A diagram in type An must

    satisfy the following requirements: • The diagram starts with a box with n + 1 nodes along the north face and n + 1 nodes along the south face. • Every node must be connected to exactly one other node by a single edge. • The edges cannot cross. • The edges cannot leave the box. Example Here is a 6-diagram. This is not a diagram. S. Salmon Visualizing diagram factorizations in TL algebras, Part 2 2 / 19
  3. The type A Temperley–Lieb diagram algebra TL(An ) is the

    Z[δ]-algebra having (n + 1)-diagrams as a basis. When multiplying diagrams, it is possible to obtain a loop. In this case, we replace each loop with a coefficient δ. = δ2 S. Salmon Visualizing diagram factorizations in TL algebras, Part 2 3 / 19
