Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We determined the Schurian-finiteness, or equivalently the tau-tilting finiteness, of blocks of type A Iwahori-Hecke algebras, in a preprint (arXiv:2112.11148) submitted for publication. Our main result is that blocks are Schurian-finite if and only if they have finite representation type (known to be the case if and only if they have weight 0 or 1). This project made use of a great breadth of tools, both existing and newly developed for our work. We've also developed 2 algorithms for computing graded decomposition numbers for cyclotomic KLR algebras R\Lambda_n in type C, and computed all such graded decomposition matrices in level 1, for n<13. In this same project, we also computed the submodule structure of Specht modules in characteristic 0 for n<11, and obtained the first example of characteristic 0 graded decomposition numbers that are not given by the corresponding canonical basis coefficients. The paper is being written up, and we aim to have a preprint submitted by the autumn.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
Schurian-finiteness is a property which many researchers in finite-dimensional algebras seek to determine for algebras. The KLR algebras arose from categorification of quantum groups and are studied a lot recently as part of a broader program of categorification. Many open questions remain.
