Cellular bases for algebras with a Jones basic construction

Abstract: We define a method which produces explicit cellular bases for algebras obtained via a Jones basic construction. For the class of algebras in question, our method gives formulas for generic Murphy--type cellular bases indexed by paths on branching diagrams and compatible with restriction and induction on cell modules. The construction given here allows for a uniform combinatorial treatment of cellular bases and representations of the Brauer, Birman-Murakami-Wenzl, Temperley-Lieb, and partition algebras, among others.
