We study two families of polynomials that play the same role, in the generalized Temperley Lieb algebra of a Coxeter group, as the Kazhdan Lusztig and R polynomials in the Hecke algebra of the group. Our results include recursions, closed…

For $(W,S)$ an arbitrary Coxeter system and any $y \in W$, we investigate the condition that the Bruhat graph for the interval $[1,y]$ can be cubulated, meaning roughly that this graph can be spanned by a product of subintervals of…

We show that the coefficients of Kazhdan-Lusztig-Vogan polynomials attached to certain blocks of Harish-Chandra modules satisfy a monotonicity property relative to the closure order on K-orbits in the flag variety.

We give positive combinatorial descriptions of Schubert structure constants $c_{u,v}^w$ for the full flag variety in type $A_{n-1}$ when $u$ and $v$ form what we refer to as a "$(p,q)$-pair" ($p+q=n$). The key observation is that a certain…

We generalize our puzzle formula for ordinary Schubert calculus on Grassmannians, to a formula for the T-equivariant Schubert calculus. The structure constants to be calculated are polynomials in {y_{i+1} - y_i}; they were shown…

The parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials for Grassmannians can be computed by counting Dyck partitions. We "lift" this combinatorial formula to the corresponding category of singular Soergel bimodules to obtain bases of the Hom spaces…

In this paper we show that the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials (and, more generally, parabolic KL polynomials) for the group $S_n$ coincide with the coefficients of the canonical basis in $n$th tensor power of the fundamental representation of…

We show that the Combinatorial Invariance Conjecture for Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials due to Lusztig and to Dyer, its parabolic analog due to Marietti, and a refined parabolic version that we introduce, are equivalent. We use this to give a…

We introduce a new family of symmetric polynomials $\mathfrak{G}^{(\mathbf{u},\mathbf{v})}_{\lambda}$ arising from exactly solvable lattice models associated with the quantised loop algebra $\mathcal{U}_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}_{2}[z^\pm])$. The…

We consider a system of polynomials $T_{s}(z,q)\in\mathbb{Z}[z,q]$ which appear as truncations of the K-theoretic vertex function for the cotangent bundles over Grassmannians $T^{*}Gr(k,n)$. We prove that these polynomials satisfy a natural…

Recent work of the first author, Negut and Rasmussen, and of Oblomkov and Rozansky in the context of Khovanov--Rozansky knot homology produces a family of polynomials in $q$ and $t$ labeled by integer sequences. These polynomials can be…

Every symplectic spread of PG(3,q), or equivalently every ovoid of Q(4,q), is shown to give rise to a certain family of permutation polynomials of GF(q) and conversely. This leads to an algebraic proof of the existence of the Tits-Luneburg…

For two elements $v$ and $w$ of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ with $v\leq w$ in Bruhat order, the Bruhat interval polytope $Q_{v,w}$ is the convex hull of the points $(z(1),\ldots,z(n))\in \mathbb{R}^n$ with $v\leq z\leq w$. It is…
