Abstract

We propose a definition by generators and relations of the rank $n-2$ Askey-Wilson algebra $\mathfrak{aw}(n)$ for any integer $n$, generalising the known presentation for the usual case $n=3$. The generators are indexed by connected subsets of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ and the simple and rather small set of defining relations is directly inspired from the known case of $n=3$. Our first main result is to prove the existence of automorphisms of $\mathfrak{aw}(n)$ satisfying the relations of the braid group on $n+1$ strands. We also show the existence of coproduct maps relating the algebras for different values of $n$. An immediate consequence of our approach is that the Askey-Wilson algebra defined here surjects onto the algebra generated by the intermediate Casimir elements in the $n$-fold tensor product of the quantum group ${\rm U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ or, equivalently, onto the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of the $(n+1)$-punctured sphere. We also obtain a family of central elements of the Askey-Wilson algebras which are shown, as a direct by-product of our construction, to be sent to $0$ in the realisation in the $n$-fold tensor product of ${\rm U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$, thereby producing a large number of relations for the algebra generated by the intermediate Casimir elements.
高阶Askey-Wilson代数及其辫群自同构
对于任意整数$n$,我们提出了秩$n-2$ Askey-Wilson代数$\mathfrak{aw}(n)$的一个定义,推广了通常情况$n=3$的已知表示。生成器由$\{1,\dots,n\}$的连通子集索引,简单而相当小的定义关系集直接来自于已知的$n=3$的情况。我们的第一个主要结果是证明了$\mathfrak{aw}(n)$的自同构的存在性,满足$n+1$链上编织群的关系。我们还证明了不同n值下代数的余积映射的存在性。我们的方法的一个直接结果是,这里定义的Askey-Wilson代数被投射到由量子群${\rm U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ n -fold张量积$n -fold张量积中的中间卡西米尔元素所产生的代数上,或者等价地,投射到$(n+1)$-穿球的Kauffman括号串代数上。我们还得到了Askey-Wilson代数的一组中心元素,作为我们构造的直接副产品,它们在${\rm U}_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$的$n$次张量积的实现中被送至$0$,从而产生了由中间卡西米尔元素生成的代数的大量关系。
