Abstract

The paper concerns a definition for qq-Kreweras numbers for finite Weyl groups WW, refining the qq-Catalan numbers for WW, and arising from work of the second author. We give explicit formulas in all types for the qq-Kreweras numbers. In the classical types A,B,CA, B, C, we also record formulas for the qq-Narayana numbers and in the process show that the formulas depend only on the Weyl group (that is, they coincide in types BB and CC). In addition we verify that in the classical types A,B,C,DA,B,C,D that the qq-Kreweras numbers obey the expected cyclic sieving phenomena when evaluated at appropriate roots of unity.
