Cox, A., De Visscher, M., Doty, S. & Martin, P. (2008). On the blocks of the walled Brauer algebra. Journal of Algebra, 320(1), pp. 169-212. doi: 10.1016/j.jalgebra.2008.01.026

Abstract

We determine the blocks of the walled Brauer algebra in characteristic zero. These can be described in terms of orbits of the action of a Weyl group of type A on a certain set of weights. In positive characteristic we give a linkage principle in terms of orbits of the corresponding affine Weyl group. We also classify the semisimple walled Brauer algebras in all characteristics.
