Abstract
The double affine Hecke algebra (DAHA) of type C has special properties (6 parameters!) and distinguished quotients. The Macdonald polynomials for this Hecke algebra are the Koornwinder polynomials and the Askey-Wilson polynomials. One interesting quotient of the DAHA is the two boundary Temperley-Lieb algebra. The 2 boundary Temperley-Lieb algebra points the way to a family of centralizer algebras which includes the 2 boundary BMW (Birman-Murakami-Wenzl) algebras. This talk will be a medley of vignettes around double affine type C braid groups and quotient algebras.
Series This talk is part of the Algebra and Representation Theory Seminar series.
