Mixed Schur-Weyl-Sergeev duality for queer Lie superalgebras (1208.5139v1)

Abstract: We introduce a new family of superalgebras $\overrightarrow{B}{r,s}$ for $r, s \ge 0$ such that $r+s>0$, which we call the walled Brauer superalgebras, and prove the mixed Scur-Weyl-Sergeev duality for queer Lie superalgebras. More precisely, let $\mathfrak{q}(n)$ be the queer Lie superalgebra, ${\mathbf V} =\mathbb{C}^{n|n}$ the natural representation of $\mathfrak{q}(n)$ and ${\mathbf W}$ the dual of ${\mathbf V}$. We prove that, if $n \ge r+s$, the superalgebra $\overrightarrow{B}{r,s}$ is isomorphic to the supercentralizer algebra ${\mathfrak{q}(n)}({\mathbf V}^{\otimes r} \otimes {\mathbf W}^{\otimes s})^{\op}$ of the $\mathfrak{q}(n)$-action on the mixed tensor space ${\mathbf V}^{\otimes r} \otimes {\mathbf W}^{\otimes s}$. As an ingredient for the proof of our main result, we construct a new diagrammatic realization $\overrightarrow{D}{k}$ of the Sergeev superalgebra $Ser_{k}$. Finally, we give a presentation of $\overrightarrow{B}_{r,s}$ in terms of generators and relations.
