Tube representations and twisting of graded categories (1801.01735v2)
Published 5 Jan 2018 in math.QA and math.OA
Abstract: We study deformation of tube algebra under twisting of graded monoidal categories. When a tensor category $\mathcal{C}$ is graded over a group $\Gamma$, a torus-valued 3-cocycle on $\Gamma$ can be used to deform the associator of $\mathcal{C}$. Based on a natural Fell bundle structure of the tube algebra over the action groupoid of the adjoint action of $\Gamma$, we show that the tube algebra of the twisted category is a 2-cocycle twisting of the original one.
