abstract
For a set $R$ of $n$ red points and a set $B$ of $n$ blue points, a $BR$-matching is a non-crossing geometric perfect matching where each segment has one endpoint in $B$ and one in $R$. Two $BR$-matchings are compatible if their union is also non-crossing. We prove that, for any two distinct $BR$-matchings $M$ and $M'$, there exists a sequence of $BR$-matchings $M = M_1, ..., M_k = M'$ such that $M_{i-1} $ is compatible with $M_i$. This implies the connectivity of the compatible bichromatic matching graph containing one node for each bichromatic matching and an edge joining each pair of compatible matchings, thereby answering the open problem posed by Aichholzer et al. in "Compatible matchings for bichromatic plane straight-line graphs"

A Graphical Calculus for Induction and Restriction on Temperley-Lieb Modules
A new diagrammatic 2-category models induction and restriction on Temperley-Lieb modules, with a basis theorem implying an equivalence after Karoubi completion and a positive basis from homogenized Chebyshev polynomials.
