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.

We define the i-restriction and i-induction functors on the category O of the cyclotomic rational double affine Hecke algebras. This yields a crystal on the set of isomorphism classes of simple modules, which is isomorphic to the crystal of a Fock space.

We prove a conjecture of Miemietz and Kashiwara on canonical bases and branching rules of affine Hecke algebras of type D. The proof is similar to the proof of the type B case in Varagnolo and Vasserot (in press) [15].

We give a proof of the parabolic/singular Koszul duality for the category O of affine Kac–Moodyalgebras. The main new tool is a relation between moment graphs and finite codimensional affine Schubert varieties. We apply this duality to q-Schur algebras and to cyclotomic rational double affine Heckealgebras.This yields a proof of a conjecture of Chuang–Miyachi relating the level-rank duality with the Ringel–Koszul duality of cyclotomic rational double affine Hecke algebras.

In this paper we study self-similar solutions in warped products satisfying $F-\mathcal{F}=\bar{g}(\lambda(r)\partial_{r},\nu)$, where $\mathcal{F}$ is a nonnegative constant and $F$ is in a class of general curvature functions including powers of mean curvature and Gauss curvature. We show that slices are the only closed strictly convex self-similar solutions in the hemisphere for such $F$. We also obtain a similar uniqueness result in hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^{3}$ for Gauss curvature $F$ and $\mathcal{F}\geq 1$.
