Calibrated representations of two boundary Temperley–Lieb algebras
Annals of Representation Theory, Volume 2 (2025) no. 3, pp. 405-438.

The two boundary Temperley–Lieb algebra $TL_k$ is a quotient of the type $C_k$ affine Hecke algebra $H_k$. The algebra $H_k$ has a diagrammatic presentation by braids with $k$ strands and two poles and $TL_k$ has a presentation via non-crossing diagrams with boundaries. The algebra $TL_k$ plays a role in the analysis of Heisenberg spin chains with boundaries. A calibrated representation of $TL_k$ is a $TL_k$-module for which all the Murphy elements (integrals) are simultaneously diagonalizable. In this paper we give a combinatorial classification and construction of all irreducible calibrated $TL_k$-modules and explain how these modules also arise from a Schur–Weyl duality with the quantum group $U_q\mathfrak{gl}_2$.
