Annular webs and Levi subalgebras (Q6082520)

Summary: For any Levi subalgebra of the form \(\mathfrak{l} = \mathfrak{gl}_{l_1} \oplus \cdots \oplus \mathfrak{gl}_{l_d} \subseteq \mathfrak{gl}_{n}\) we construct a quotient of the category of annular quantum \(\mathfrak{gl}_{n}\) webs that is equivalent to the category of finite-dimensional representations of quantum \(\mathfrak{l}\) generated by exterior powers of the vector representation. This can be interpreted as an annular version of skew Howe duality, gives a description of the representation category of \(\mathfrak{l}\) by additive idempotent completion, and a web version of the generalized blob algebra.
