----- Please see the pdf file for the actual abstract and important remarks, which could not be put here due to the arXiv length restrictions. ----- This thesis presents a study of the cyclotomic BMW (Birman-Murakami-Wenzl) algebras, introduced by Haring-Oldenburg as a generalization of the BMW algebras associated with the cyclotomic Hecke algebras of type G(k,1,n) (also known as Ariki-Koike algebras) and type B knot theory involving affine/cylindrical tangles. They are shown to be free of rank k^n (2n-1)!! and to have a topological realization as a certain cylindrical analogue of the Kauffman Tangle algebra. Furthermore, the cyclotomic BMW algebras are proven to be cellular, in the sense of Graham and Lehrer. This Ph.D. thesis, completed at the University of Sydney, was submitted September 2007 and passed December 2007.
In this paper, we calculate decomposition matrices of the Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebras over $mathbb C$.
The Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebra (BMW algebra) of type Dn is shown to be semisimple and free of rank (2^n+1)n!!-(2^(n-1)+1)n! over a specified commutative ring R, where n!! is the product of the first n odd integers. We also show it is a cellular al
The cyclotomic Birman-Murakami-Wenzl (BMW) algebras B_n^k, introduced by R. Haring-Oldenburg, are a generalisation of the BMW algebras associated with the cyclotomic Hecke algebras of type G(k,1,n) (aka Ariki-Koike algebras) and type B knot theory.
Let $S$ be the cyclotomic $q$-Schur algebra associated to the Ariki-Koike algebra $H_{n,r}$ of rank $n$, introduced by Dipper-James-Mathas. For each $p = (r_1, ..., r_g)$ such that $r_1 + ... + r_g = r$, we define a subalgebra $S^p$ of $S$ and its qu
Let $Sc(vL)$ be the cyclotomic $q$-Schur algebra associated to the Ariki-Koike algebra $He_{n,r}$, introduced by Dipper-James-Mathas. In this paper, we consider $v$-decomposition numbers of $Sc(vL)$, namely decomposition numbers with respect to the J
