Abstract

Motivated by affine Schubert calculus, we construct a family of dual graded graphs (Γs,Γw)(\Gamma_s,\Gamma_w) for an arbitrary Kac-Moody algebra \g(A)\g(A). The graded graphs have the Weyl group WW of \g(A)\g(A) as vertex set and are labeled versions of the strong and weak orders of WW respectively. Using a construction of Lusztig for quivers with an admissible automorphism, we define folded insertion for a Kac-Moody algebra and obtain Sagan-Worley shifted insertion from Robinson-Schensted insertion as a special case. Drawing on work of Stembridge, we analyze the induced subgraphs of (Γs,Γw)(\Gamma_s,\Gamma_w) which are distributive posets.
