Equivalence of ribbon twist-braided module categories for inner-equivalent involutions

About 9 years old · traced to

Let u\mathfrak{u} be a compact semisimple Lie algebra with ∗*-compatible Chevalley generators {er,fr,hr∣r∈I}\{e_r,f_r,h_r\mid r\in I\} of g=uC\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{u}^{\mathbb{C}}. Let σ\sigma be an involution of u\mathfrak{u}, with fixed-point Lie algebra kσ=uσ\mathfrak{k}_{\sigma}=\mathfrak{u}^{\sigma}; let (X,τ)(X,\tau) be a Satake diagram with associated involution θ=θ(X,τ)\theta=\theta(X,\tau) and kθ=uθ\mathfrak{k}_{\theta}=\mathfrak{u}^{\theta}; and let (Y,μ)(Y,\mu) be a Vogan diagram with associated involution ν=ν(Y,μ)\nu=\nu(Y,\mu) and kν=uν\mathfrak{k}_{\nu}=\mathfrak{u}^{\nu}. Let 0<q<10<q<1 and ℏ∈iR\hbar\in i\mathbb{R} satisfy eπiℏ=qe^{\pi i\hbar}=q. Main conjecture. If σ\sigma, θ\theta, and ν\nu are inner equivalent, then

Rep⁡ℏ(kσ)≅Rep⁡qθ(kθ)≅Rep⁡qν(kν)\operatorname{Rep}_{\hbar}(\mathfrak{k}_{\sigma})\cong \operatorname{Rep}_q^{\theta}(\mathfrak{k}_{\theta})\cong \operatorname{Rep}_q^{\nu}(\mathfrak{k}_{\nu})

as twist-braided Rep⁡q(u)\operatorname{Rep}_q(\mathfrak{u})-module C∗C^*-categories. The conjecture asserts that the three ribbon twist-braided Rep⁡q(u)\operatorname{Rep}_q(\mathfrak{u})-module C∗C^*-categories constructed in the paper depend, up to equivalence, only on the inner-equivalence class of the associated involution; the asserted equivalence remains to be established in general.
