We categorify a coideal subalgebra of the quantum group of S[2r+ 1 by introducing a 2-category analogous to the one defined by Khovanov一Lauda-Rouquier， and show that self-dual indecomposable l-morphisms categorify the canonical basis of this algebra. This allows us to define a categorical action of this coideal algebra on the categories of modules over cohomology rings of partial flag varieties and on the category ð of type B/C.

One of the fundamental questions in CR geometry is: Given two strongly pseudoconvex CR manifolds X1 and X2 of dimension 2n􀀀 1, is there a non-constant CR morphism between them? In this paper, we use Kohn{Rossi cohomology to show the non-existence of non-constant CR morphism between such two CR manifolds. Specically, if dimHp;q KR(X1) < dimHp;q KR(X2) for any (p; q) with 1  q  n 􀀀 2, then there is no non-constant CR morphism from X1 to X2.
