The Two-Color Ext Soergel Calculus
Abstract
We compute Ext groups between Soergel Bimodules associated to the infinite/finite dihedral group for a realization in characteristic 0 and show that they are free right R-modules. In particular, we obtain an explicit diagrammatic basis for the Hochschild cohomology of indecomposable Soergel Bimodules. We then give a diagrammatic presentation for the corresponding monoidal category of Ext-enhanced Soergel Bimodules. As applications, we explicitly compute HOMFLY homology/triply graded link homology HHH for the connect sum of two Hopf links and the negative torus link T(3,-3) as right R-modules. Furthermore, we show that the Hochschild cohomology of Soergel Bimodules in finite dihedral type categorifies Gomi's trace, providing a t-analog of Soergel's Hom Formula in the dihedral setting.
