Representations of orientifold Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras and the Enomoto-Kashiwara algebra (2110.01473v4)

Abstract: We consider an "orientifold" generalization of Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras, depending on a quiver with an involution and a framing. Their representation theory is related, via a Schur-Weyl duality type functor, to Kac-Moody quantum symmetric pairs, and, via a categorification theorem, to highest weight modules over an algebra introduced by Enomoto and Kashiwara. Our first main result is a new shuffle realization of these highest weight modules and a combinatorial construction of their PBW and canonical bases in terms of Lyndon words. Our second main result is a classification of irreducible representations of orientifold KLR algebras and a computation of their global dimension in the case when the framing is trivial.
