Diagram categories for $\textbf{U}_q$-tilting modules at roots of unity

Abstract: We give a diagrammatic presentation of the category of $\textbf{U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$-tilting modules $\mathfrak{T}$ for $q$ being a root of unity and introduce a grading on $\mathfrak{T}$. This grading is a "root of unity phenomenon" and might lead to new insights about link and $3$-manifold invariants deduced from $\mathfrak{T}$. We also give a diagrammatic category for the (graded) projective endofunctors on $\mathfrak{T}$, indicate how our results could generalize and collect some "well-known" facts to give a reasonably self-contained exposition.
