Type C Webs

Abstract: We define a

m a t h b b C (q)

-linear pivotal category

m a t h b f W e b (m a t h f r a k {s p}_{2 n})

and prove that it is equivalent to the full subcategory of finite-dimensional representations of

U_{q} (m a t h f r a k {s p}_{2 n})

tensor-generated by the fundamental representations. This answers the type

C

case of the main open problem from Kuperberg's 1996 paper "Spiders for rank 2 Lie algebras" (arXiv:q-alg/9712003).
