The homology of the partition algebras

Rachael Boyd, Richard Hepworth, Peter Patzt

We show that the homology of the partition algebras, interpreted as appropriate Tor-groups, is isomorphic to that of the symmetric groups in a range of degrees that increases with…

Groups of convex bodies

Richard Hepworth

In this paper we introduce and study a topological abelian group of convex bodies, analogous to the scissors congruence group and McMullen's polytope algebra, with the universal pr…

The homology of the Brauer algebras

Rachael Boyd, Richard Hepworth, Peter Patzt

This paper investigates the homology of the Brauer algebras, interpreted as appropriate Tor-groups, and shows that it is closely related to the homology of the symmetric group. Our…

Combinatorics of injective words for Temperley-Lieb algebras

Rachael Boyd, Richard Hepworth

This paper studies combinatorial properties of the 'complex of planar injective words', a chain complex of modules over the Temperley-Lieb algebra that arose in our work on homolog…

The homology of the Temperley-Lieb algebras

Rachael Boyd, Richard Hepworth

This paper studies the homology and cohomology of the Temperley-Lieb algebra TL_n(a), interpreted as appropriate Tor and Ext groups. Our main result applies under the common assump…

Homological stability for Iwahori-Hecke algebras

Richard Hepworth

We show that the Iwahori-Hecke algebras H_n of type A_{n-1} satisfy homological stability, where homology is interpreted as an appropriate Tor group. Our result precisely recovers…
