摘要

Webs are combinatorial objects used to encode homomorphisms between representations of Lie (super)algebras and related objects. This paper extends the theory of webs to the quantum group of type Q; i.e., we define a monoidal supercategory of quantum type Q webs and show it admits a full, essentially surjective functor onto the monoidal supercategory of \(U_{q}(\frak{q}_{n})\) U q ( q n ) -modules generated by the quantum symmetric powers of the natural representation and their duals. We also show that a certain subcategory of the web category is a ribbon category and discuss applications to the representation theory of \(U_{q}(\frak{q}_{n})\) U q ( q n ) and to invariants of oriented, framed links.
