Mar 18, 2011 at 23:49 comment added Alexandru Chirvasitu I'm only on page 10 right now, but so far, it looks like the result that comes closest to what I wanted isn't quite there: they prove in Prop. 3.6 that their modules $M\otimes V^{\otimes n}$ are what they call calibrated, i.e. semisimple under precisely the abelian subgroup of the affine braid group that comes from the "affine-ness" (the subgroup of $\tilde B_n$ generated by the $X^{\varepsilon_i}$, in the notation of the paper). I'll look around some more, maybe it's either spelled out or it follows from what they're doing. Anyway, thanks for the quick response.
