报告内容简介：
A quantum symmetric pair consists of a quantum group and its coideal subalgebra (called an i-quantum group). Quantum groups can be viewed as an example of i-quantum groups associated to symmetric pairs of diagonal type. In recent years, many fundamental constructions for quantum groups have been generalized to the i-quantum group setting. In this talk, we present a categorification of i-quantum groups via a new Hall algebra approach. This relies on the framework of modified Ringel-Hall algebras of Ming Lu and Liangang Peng. Our approach leads to monomial bases, PBW bases, and braid group actions for i-quantum groups. In case of symmetric pairs of diagonal type, our work reduces to a reformulation of Bridgeland's Hall algebra realization of a quantum group, which in turn was a generalization of earlier constructions of Ringel and Lusztig for half a quantum group. This is joint work with Min Lu (Sichuan University).
