On Homomorphisms of Algebras Generated by Projectors and Coxeter Functors

From MaRDI portal





The authors consider two families of *-algebras generated by self-adjoint idempotents: \[ {\mathcal P}_{n,\alpha}=\mathbb{C}\langle p_1,\dots,p_n\mid p_1+\cdots+p_n=\alpha e,\;p_j^2=p_j\;\forall j\rangle, \] \[ {\mathcal P}_{n,\text{abo},\tau}=\mathbb{C}\langle q_1,\dots,q_n,p\mid q_j^2=q_j,\;p^2=p,\;q_1+\cdots+q_n=e,\;q_jpq_j=\tau q_j\;\forall j\rangle. \] Here \(\alpha,\tau\in\mathbb{R}\). Several functors between categories of representations of these algebras are constructed and discussed in detail. In particular, the categories \(\text{Rep}{\mathcal P}_{n,\alpha}\) and \(\text{Rep}{\mathcal P}_{n,\text{abo},\alpha^{-1}}\) are equivalent. The above functors are used to obtain a description of the set of scalar matrices decomposable into a sum of \(n\) idempotents and for proving unitarizability of some finite-dimensional representations of \({\mathcal P}_{n,\alpha}\).
