Monoidal seeds of the categories $\mathcal{C}_{wv}$ over quiver Hecke algebras

Abstract

In this paper, when the quiver Hecke algebra R is symmetric, we present a new construction of quantum monoidal seeds $ \mathscr{S}_{w,v}$ for $\mathcal{C}_{wv}$ using the reflection functors $\mathcal{F}_i$ and the newly introduced operators $\mathcal{K}_i$. The monoidal seed $ \mathscr{S}_{w,v}$ is obtained as a subseed of the monoidal seed of $\mathcal{C}_w$ constructed by applying $\mathcal{K}_i$ and $\mathcal{F}_i$ along the special KF sequence determined by a reduced expression of $w$ and $v$. We further prove that the monoidal seed $\mathscr{S}_{w,v}$ coincides with the set of all prime factors of the determinantial modules $M(w_{\le k } Λ_{i_k}, v_{\le k} Λ_{i_k} )$. We prove that the Grothendieck ring $K(\mathcal{C}_{wv}) $ lies between the cluster algebra and the upper cluster algebra.
