A survey of Heisenberg categorification via graphical calculus (1104.4789v4)
Published 25 Apr 2011 in math.RT, math.AG, and math.RA
Abstract: In this expository paper we present an overview of various graphical categorifications of the Heisenberg algebra and its Fock space representation. We begin with a discussion of "weak" categorifications via modules for Hecke algebras and "geometrizations" in terms of the cohomology of the Hilbert scheme. We then turn our attention to more recent "strong" categorifications involving planar diagrammatics and derived categories of coherent sheaves on Hilbert schemes.
