Abstract: 

Planar algebras provide a very nice graphical interpretation of tensor categories. In particular they make easy many computations that are difficult using purely tensor categories. Using theorems from both the planar algebra world, and the tensor category world, we are able to give a 2 generator, 13 relation presentation of Drinfeld center of PSU(2)qPSU(2)q.
