Abstract

We show that in ADE type the trace of Webster's categorification of a tensor product of irreducibles for the quantum group is isomorphic to a tensor product of Weyl modules for the current algebra U(\mathfrakg[t]). This extends a result of Beliakova, Habiro, Lauda, and Webster who showed that the trace of the categorified quantum group U^*(\mathfrakg) is isomorphic to U(\mathfrakg[t]), and the trace of a cyclotomic quotient of U^*(\mathfrakg), which categorifies a single irreducible for the quantum group, is isomorphic to a Weyl module for U(\mathfrakg[t]). We use a deformation argument based on Webster's technique of unfurling 2-representations.
