SVV algebras

Abstract

In 2010 Shan, Varagnolo and Vasserot introduced a family of graded algebras in order to prove a conjecture of Kashiwara and Miemietz which stated that the finite-dimensional representations of affine Hecke algebras of type $D$ categorify a module over a certain quantum group. We study these algebras, and in various cases, show how they relate to Varagnolo-Vasserot algebras and to quiver Hecke algebras which in turn allows us to deduce various homological properties.
