Hecke Algebras and Categorification
Hecke representation theory and categorification connect deformed group algebras with graded modules, quantum groups and highest-weight structures. This collection develops ordinary Hecke Specht polytabloids, their comparison with Murphy constructions, and type-A cellular bases. The KLR branch studies induction and restriction, quantum Serre relations on Grothendieck groups, and cyclotomic highest-weight categorification. Cyclotomic Hecke and quiver Hecke algebras provide the bridge that transports grading and categorical information to Hecke modules.
Ariki categorification relates these constructions to decomposition numbers. The degenerate Ariki theorem retains its separate parameter regime and draws on category O and higher-level Schur–Weyl duality. Category O and Geometric Representation Theory supplies that route and the geometric convolution foundations; Quantum Groups and Crystal Bases supplies global bases, highest weights and Fock spaces. Symmetric Groups and Symmetric Functions contains the classical and modular symmetric-group applications. Foundational presentations, bases and structural constructions remain in Hopf Algebras & Hecke Algebras. Every topic keeps its examples companion, and publication statuses distinguish available material from draft work.

The parts run in order. Everything a page needs from this group has been read by the time you reach it, and the level on each row is how many dependency steps into the group that page sits.
Part 1 · Hecke Algebras and Categorification
7 pagesSpecht polytabloids and cellular bases develop Hecke module constructions. KLR induction and restriction categorify quantum Serre relations; cyclotomic quotients give highest-weight categorification. The Hecke–KLR bridge leads to graded decomposition numbers. The degenerate Ariki theorem follows its distinct category-O route, using the functors and Fock-space dictionary in Category O and Geometric Representation Theory.
