Evaluation functor and birepresentations for Soergel bimodules in
affine type A.
Abstract:
There is a well-known evaluation map from Hecke algebras in affine
type A to those in finite type A, which allows us to pull back
representations of the former to the latter. In this talk, I will explain
how to categorify this to a monoidal functor from affine type A Soergel
bimodules to the bounded homotopy category of finite type A Soergel
bimodules, and give some applications to 2-representation theory. This is
joint work with Marco Mackaay and Pedro Vaz.
