Abstract
This paper provides a systematization of some recent results in homology of algebras. Our main theorem gives criteria under which the homology of a diagram algebra is isomorphic to the homology of the subalgebra on diagrams having the maximum number of left-to-right connections. From this theorem, we deduce the ‘invertible-parameter’ cases of the Temperley–Lieb and Brauer results of Boyd–Hepworth and Boyd–Hepworth–Patzt. We are also able to give a new proof of Sroka’s theorem that the homology of an odd-strand Temperley–Lieb algebra vanishes, as well as an analogous result for Brauer algebras and an interpretation of both results in the even-strand case. Our proofs are relatively elementary: in particular, no auxiliary chain complexes or spectral sequences are required. We briefly discuss the relationship to cellular algebras in the sense of Graham–Lehrer.
期刊介绍:
Begründet 1868 durch Alfred Clebsch und Carl Neumann. Fortgeführt durch Felix Klein, David Hilbert, Otto Blumenthal, Erich Hecke, Heinrich Behnke, Hans Grauert, Heinz Bauer, Herbert Amann, Jean-Pierre Bourguignon, Wolfgang Lück und Nigel Hitchin.
The journal Mathematische Annalen was founded in 1868 by Alfred Clebsch and Carl Neumann. It was continued by Felix Klein, David Hilbert, Otto Blumenthal, Erich Hecke, Heinrich Behnke, Hans Grauert, Heinz Bauer, Herbert Amann, Jean-Pierre Bourguigon, Wolfgang Lück and Nigel Hitchin.
Since 1868 the name Mathematische Annalen stands for a long tradition and high quality in the publication of mathematical research articles. Mathematische Annalen is designed not as a specialized journal but covers a wide spectrum of modern mathematics.
