Abstract: Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras Rheta of finite Lie type are affine quasihereditary with standard modules Delta(pi) labeled by Kostant partitions of heta. Let Delta be the direct sum of all standard modules. It is known that the Yoneda algebra mathcalEheta:=operatornameExtRheta∗(Delta,Delta) carries a structure of an Ainfty-algebra which can be used to reconstruct the category of standardly filtered Rheta-modules. In this paper, we explicitly describe mathcalEheta in two special cases: (1) when heta is a positive root in type mathttA, and (2) when heta is of Lie type mathttA2. In these cases, mathcalEheta turns out to be torsion free and intrinsically formal. We provide an example to show that the Ainfty-algebra mathcalEheta is non-formal in general.


In 2008 \textit{M. Khovanov} and \textit{A. D. Lauda} [Represent. Theory 13, 309--347 (2009; Zbl 1188.81117)] and \textit{R. Rouquier} [``2-Kac-Moody algebras, Preprint, \url{arXiv:0812.5023}] defined a family of algebras (now known as KLR algebras) which categorify the upper half of the quantized enveloping algebra of a given Lie algebra. In the paper under review the authors study KLR algebras \(R_{\theta}\) of Lie type \(A_{\infty}\) where \(\theta\) is a positive root. It is known that \(R_{\theta}\) is affine quasihereditary with standard modules \(\Delta(\pi)\) labeled by Kostant partitions of \(\theta\). Let \(\Delta\) be the direct sum of all standard modules. Then the Yoneda algebra \({\mathcal E}_{\theta}:=\text{Ext}^{\ast}_{R_{\theta}}(\Delta,\Delta)\) carries the structure of an \(A_{\infty}\)-algebra which can be used to reconstruct the category of standardly filtered \(R_{\theta}\)-modules. The authors consider the Yoneda algebra \({\mathcal E}_{\theta}\) as the \(\mathbb Z\)-linear category whose objects are the partitions in the set \(\text{KP}(\theta)\) of Kostant partitions of \(\theta\) and the set of morphisms from \(\rho\in\text{KP}(\theta)\) to \(\sigma\in\text{KP}(\theta)\) is \({\mathcal E}_{\theta}(\rho,\sigma):=\text{Ext}^{\ast}_{R_{\theta}}(\Delta(\rho),\Delta(\sigma)\). The main results of the paper describe the category \({\mathcal E}_{\theta}\) (as a bigraded category) in two special cases: (1) when \(\theta\) an arbitrary positive root, and (2) when \(\theta\) of type \(A_2\), i.e., \(\theta\) is of the form \(c_1\alpha_1+c_2\alpha_2\), where \(\{\alpha_i\mid i\in{\mathbb Z}\}\) is the set of the simple roots. It has turned out that in these cases \({\mathcal E}_{\theta}\) is torsion free and intrinsically formal. The authors also provide an example (for \(\theta=\alpha_1+2\alpha_2+\alpha_3\)) which shows that the \(A_{\infty}\)-algebra \({\mathcal E}_{\theta}\) is non-formal in general.
