The paper under review constructs a categorification of the maximal commutative subalgebra of a type \(A\) Hecke algebra, spanned by the Jones-Wenzl projectors to irreducible subrepresentations of the regular representation. This categorification is geometric in nature and is constructed via a monoidal functor from the symmetric monoidal category of coherent sheaves on the flag Hilbert scheme to the (non-symmetric) monoidal category of Soergel bimodules. The latter monoidal category is a standard categorification of the Hecke algebra. The adjoint of this functor allows one to relate the Hochschild homology of any braid with the Euler characteristic of a sheaf on the flag Hilbert scheme. The categorified Jones-Wenzl projectors correspond to the renormalized Koszul complexes of the torus fixed points on the flag Hilbert scheme. The general picture the authors produce leads to a number of conjectures. For example, one of these conjectures is that the endomorphism algebras of the categorified projectors correspond to the dg algebras of functions on affine charts of the flag Hilbert schemes. Several other conjecture can be found in the introduction.
