Temperley–Lieb relations for parabolic cap and cup functors

Let Ok,nk\mathcal O^{k,n-k} be the relevant parabolic category, let ζn:O1k,nkOk1,nk1\zeta_n:\mathcal O^{k,n-k}_1\stackrel{\cong}{\longrightarrow}\mathcal O^{k-1,n-k-1} be the Enright–Shelton equivalence, and define cap and cup functors by

i,n=ζnτ21τ32τi1i2τii1Ti,\cap_{i,n}=\zeta_n\circ\tau_2^1\circ\tau_3^2\circ\dots\circ\tau_{i-1}^{i-2}\circ\tau_i^{i-1}\circ T^i, i,n=Tiτi1iτi2i1τ23τ12ζn+21.\cup_{i,n}=T_i\circ\tau_{i-1}^i\circ\tau_{i-2}^{i-1}\circ\dots\circ\tau_2^3\circ\tau_1^2\circ\zeta_{n+2}^{-1}.

Parabolic Temperley–Lieb relations conjecture. These functors should satisfy the natural isomorphisms corresponding to the defining relations of the Temperley–Lieb category, with q=1q=-1 in the last relation. The first two relations are immediate from Enright–Shelton and the paper's results, and the last follows from translation-functor identities; proving the remaining four requires a deeper understanding of ζn\zeta_n.
