We construct a 2-representation categorifying the symmetric Howe representation of $mathfrak{gl}_m$ using a deformation of an algebra introduced by Webster. As a consequence, we obtain a categorical braid group action taking values in a homotopy category.

Let $mathfrak{g}$ be a semisimple simply-laced Lie algebra of finite type. Let $mathcal{C}$ be an abelian categorical representation of the quantum group $U_q(mathfrak{g})$ categorifying an integrable representation $V$. The Artin braid group $B$ of $mathfrak{g}$ acts on $D^b(mathcal{C})$ by Rickard complexes, providing a triangulated equivalence $Theta_{w_0}:D^b(mathcal{C}_mu) to D^b(mathcal{C}_{w_0(mu)})$, where $mu$ is a weight of $V$ and $Theta_{w_0}$ is a positive lift of the longest element of the Weyl group. We prove that this equivalence is t-exact up to shift when $V$ is isotypic, generalising a fundamental result of Chuang and Rouquier in the case $mathfrak{g}=mathfrak{sl}_2$. For general $V$, we prove that $Theta_{w_0}$ is a perverse equivalence with respect to a Jordan-Holder filtration of $mathcal{C}$. Using these results we construct, from the action of $B$ on $V$, an action of the cactus group on the crystal of $V$. This recovers the cactus group action on $V$ defined via generalised Schutzenberger involutions, and provides a new connection between categorical representation theory and crystal bases. We also use these results to give new proofs of theorems of Berenstein-Zelevinsky, Rhoades, and Stembridge regarding the action of symmetric group on the Kazhdan-Lusztig basis of its Specht modules.
We establish automorphisms with closed formulas on quasi-split $imath$quantum groups of symmetric Kac-Moody type associated to restricted Weyl groups. The proofs are carried out in the framework of $imath$Hall algebras and reflection functors, thanks to the $imath$Hall algebra realization of $imath$quantum groups in our previous work. Several quantum binomial identities arising along the way are established.
We prove that representations of the braid groups coming from weakly group-theoretical braided fusion categories have finite images.
We study actions of pointed Hopf algebras on matrix algebras. Our approach is based on known facts about group gradings of matrix algebras.
We discuss some aspects of the deformed W-algebras W_{q,t}[g]. In particular, we derive an explicit formula for the Kac determinant, and discuss the center when t^2 is a primitive k-th root of unity. The relation of the structure of W_{q,t}[g] to the representation ring of the quantum affine algebra U_q(hat g), as discovered recently by Frenkel and Reshetikhin, is further elucidated in some examples.
