For affine symmetric groups we construct finite $W$-graphs corresponding to two-row shapes, and prove their uniqueness. This gives the first non-trivial family of examples of finite $W$-graphs in an affine type. We compare our construction…

We study the class of edge-coloured graphs arising from the graph-theoretic representation of quantum photonic experiments that generate multipartite W-states. Abstracting away physical amplitudes and phases, we introduce W-state graphs:…

Let $(W, S)$ be a Coxeter system equipped with a fixed automorphism $\ast$ of order $\leq 2$ which preserves $S$. Lusztig (and with Vogan in some special cases) have shown that the space spanned by set of "twisted" involutions was naturally…

We study the spectrum of a family of algebras, the inhomogeneous Gaudin algebras, acting on the $n$-fold tensor representation $\mathbb{C}[x_1, \ldots, x_r]^{\otimes n}$ of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}_r$. We use the work of…

In this paper we consider the Hecke algebra $\mathcal {H}$ associated to an extended affine Weyl group of type $\widetilde{B_2}$. We give some interesting formulas on $C_{rt}S_{\lambda}$, which imply some relations between the…

Let $(W,S)$ be any Coxeter system and let $w \mapsto w^*$ be an involution of $W$ which preserves the set of simple generators $S$. Lusztig and Vogan have shown that the corresponding set of twisted involutions (i.e., elements $w \in W$…

We further develop the theory of inducing $W$-graphs worked out by Howlett and Yin in \cite{HY1}, \cite{HY2}, focusing on the case $W = \S_n$. Our main application is to give two $W$-graph versions of tensoring with the $\S_n$ defining…

We study the representation theory of finite W-algebras. After introducing parabolic subalgebras to describe the structure of W-algebras, we define the Verma modules and give a conjecture for the Kac determinant. This allows us to find the…

The aim of this paper is to give a new explicit construction of Lusztig's asymptotic algebra in affine type $\mathsf{A}$. To do so, we construct a balanced system of cell modules, prove an asymptotic version of the Plancherel Theorem and…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system and let $w \mapsto w^*$ be an involution of $W$ which preserves the set of simple generators $S$. Lusztig and Vogan have recently shown that the set of twisted involutions (i.e., elements $w \in W$ with…

For a graph $G$, and a nonnegative integer $g$, let $a_g(G)$ be the number of $2$-cell embeddings of $G$ in an orientable surface of genus $g$ (counted up to the combinatorial homeomorphism equivalence). In 1989, Gross, Robbins, and Tucker…

Consider a weighted Coxeter system $(W,S,\mathscr{L})$. Via its associated Iwahori-Hecke algebra, we may determine the partition of $W$ into Kazhdan-Lusztig cells. In this paper, we use the theory of Vogan classes introduced by…

Following Lusztig, we consider a Coxeter group $W$ together with a weight function $L$. This gives rise to the pre-order relation $\leq_{L}$ and the corresponding partition of $W$ into left cells. We introduce an equivalence relation on…

In 2011, Howlett and Nguyen \cite{r1} introduced the concept of a $W$-graph ideal $E_J$ in $\left ( W,\leqslant_{L} \right )$ with respect to $J$ (a subset of $S$), where $\leqslant _{L}$ is the left weak order on $W$. They proved that one…
