Abstract:We explain a new approach to the representation theory of the partition category based on a reformulation of the definition of the Jucys-Murphy elements introduced originally by Halverson and Ram and developed further by Enyang. Our reformulation involves a new graphical monoidal category, the affine partition category, which is defined here as a certain monoidal subcategory of Khovanov's Heisenberg category. We use the Jucys-Murphy elements to construct some special projective functors, then apply these funct… Show more
“…In this last section we relate our affine partition algebra to the work of J. Brundan and M. Vargas in [2] and prove a new result on their category. We start by recalling the definition of their affine partition category APar as a subcategory of Heis generated by certain objects and morphisms, and of their affine partition algebra AP k , which is an endomorphism algebra within APar.…”

“…For α 1 , as was done in the previous case we may pull one of the crossings outside of the curl, and thus decrease the number of intersections in R by one, and hence α 1 = 0 by induction. For α 2 the curve containing h 1 and the original left curl have been turned into the two new curves h (1) 1 and h (2) 1 . Note the original left curl is no longer present, but regardless of how the original curve containing h 1 intersected the curl, at least one of the new curves h (1) 1 and h (2) 1 must form a new, smaller, left curl.…”

We define an affine partition algebra by generators and relations and prove a variety of basic results regarding this new algebra analogous to those of other affine diagram algebras. In particular we show that it extends the Schur-Weyl duality between the symmetric group and the partition algebra. We also relate it to the affine partition category recently defined by J. Brundan and M. Vargas. Moreover, we show that this affine partition category is a full monoidal subcategory of the Heisenberg category.
