As a consequence, we get a canonical bijection between the set of isomorphism classes of simple $k\mathrm{GL}_2(q)b_0$-modules and the set of conjugacy classes of $b_0$-weights in this case.8 pages, 2 figures, to appear in Journal of AlgebraRepresentation Theory20C20; 20J05The weighted fusion category algebra and the q-Schur algebra for \mathrm{GL}_2(q)text
