Abstract

In this paper, we prove that the pairwise orthogonal primitive idempotents of generic cyclotomic Birman-Murakami-Wenzl algebras can be constructed by consecutive evaluations of a certain rational function. In the Appendix, we prove a similar result for generic cyclotomic Nazarov-Wenzl algebras. A consequence of the constructions is a one-parameter family of fusion procedures for the cyclotomic Hecke algebra and its degenerate analogue.
