Corollary 5 If bb is a flat tangle without closed components then the only grading-preserving endomorphisms of the bimodule ℱ⁡(b){\mathcal{F}}(b) are multiplications by integers, the only grading-preserving automorphisms are Id\mathrm{Id} and −Id,-\mathrm{Id}, and ℱ⁡(b){\mathcal{F}}(b) has no endomorphisms of negative degree. If f:M→ℱ⁡(b)f:M\to{\mathcal{F}}(b) is an isomorphism in 𝒦nm\mathcal{K}_{n}^{m} then the only other isomorphism between MM and ℱ⁡(b){\mathcal{F}}(b) is −f.-f.
