Abstract: We present in this paper the algebra of fused permutations and its deformation the fused Hecke algebra. The first one is defined on a set of combinatorial objects that we call fused permutations, and its deformation is defined on a set of topological objects that we call fused braids. We use these algebras to prove a Schur--Weyl duality theorem for any tensor products of any symmetrised powers of the natural representation of

U_{q} (g l_{N})

. Then we proceed to the study of the fused Hecke algebras and in particular, we describe explicitely the irreducible representations and the branching rules. Finally, we aim to an algebraic description of the centralisers of the tensor products of

U_{q} (g l_{N})

-representations under consideration. We exhibit a simple explicit element that we conjecture to generate the kernel from the fused Hecke algebra to the centraliser. We prove this conjecture in some cases and in particular, we obtain a description of the centraliser of any tensor products of any finite-dimensional representations of

U_{q} (s l_{2})

.

Review text

The authors introduce a generalized algebra that plays the same role for tensor representations of the quantum group \(U_q(gl_N)\) as the Hecke algebra does for the representations of \(V \otimes^n\). This algebra, denoted by \(H_{k,n}(q)\), is used to study the centralizers of these tensor representations. Through this, the authors obtain a formulation of Schur-Weyl duality that generalizes the classic version. In addition to studying the \(H_{k,n}(q)\) structure, the authors explore its representation theory and identify special subalgebras. They also provide conjectures and prove some specific cases towards an algebraic description of \(H_{k,n}(q)\).
