This gives a way to construct Kac-Moody actions in many representation-theoretic examples which is independent of Rouquier's original approach via `control by K_0.' As an application, we prove an isomorphism theorem for generalized cyclotomic quotients of these categories, extending the known isomorphism between cyclotomic quotients of type A affine Hecke algebras and quiver Hecke algebras.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-07-27T22:55:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "17B10", "18D10" ], "keywords": [ "kac-moody categorification", "cyclotomic quotients", "rouquiers original approach", "affine hecke algebras", "heisenberg category satisfying suitable finiteness" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 52, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
