# Trace decategorification of categorified quantum $\mathfrak {sl}_2$

Beliakova, Anna; Habiro, Kazuo; Lauda, Aaron D; Živković, Marko (2017). Trace decategorification of categorified quantum $\mathfrak {sl}_2$. Mathematische Annalen, 367(1-2):397-440.

## Abstract

The trace or the 0th Hochschild–Mitchell homology of a linear category $\mathcal{C}$ may be regardedas a kind of decategorification of $\mathcal{C}$. We compute the traces of the two versions $\mathcal{U}$ and $\mathcal{U^*}$ of categorified quantum $\mathrm{U}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ introduced by the third author. The trace of $\mathcal{U}$ is isomorphic to the split Grothendieck group $\mathit{K}_0(\mathcal{U})$, and the higher Hochschild–Mitchell homology of $\mathcal{U}$ is zero. The trace of $\mathcal{U^*}$ is isomorphic to the idempotented integral form of the current algebra $\mathrm{U}(\mathfrak{sl}_2[\mathit{t}])$.

### TrendTerms

TrendTerms displays relevant terms of the abstract of this publication and related documents on a map. The terms and their relations were extracted from ZORA using word statistics. Their timelines are taken from ZORA as well. The bubble size of a term is proportional to the number of documents where the term occurs. Red, orange, yellow and green colors are used for terms that occur in the current document; red indicates high interlinkedness of a term with other terms, orange, yellow and green decreasing interlinkedness. Blue is used for terms that have a relation with the terms in this document, but occur in other documents.
You can navigate and zoom the map. Mouse-hovering a term displays its timeline, clicking it yields the associated documents.
