This National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences grant award, titled "Categorical Centers, Cactus Actions, and Diagram Algebras," provides $170,000 in funding to Northeastern University over 3 years, from September 1, 2023 to August 31, 2026. The project will develop a deeper understanding of representation theory, which studies the symmetries of mathematical objects, by combining algebraic, combinatorial, and categorical techniques to investigate quantum groups and related diagram algebras. Key goals include constructing and diagonalizing elements of the centers of categorified quantum groups, studying the decomposition of categorical representations, and investigating the representation theory of the cactus group. The project will involve undergraduate student participation and opportunities for collaboration among early-career researchers. This award supports NSF's mission to promote the progress of mathematical sciences and enhance the Nation's scientific enterprise.
