We consider Lusztig's $\mathbf{a}$-function on Coxeter groups (in the equal parameter case) and classify all Coxeter groups with finitely many elements of $\mathbf{a}$-value 2 in terms of Coxeter diagrams.

Cohen and Taylor, following an idea of Plesken, introduced a Lie algebra to the complex group algebra of a finite group and determined its structure, based on the character theory of the group. We show how the definition of this Plesken Lie…

A Kazhdan-Lusztig variety is the intersection of a locally-closed Schubert cell with an opposite Schubert variety in a flag variety. We present a linear parametrization of the Schubert cells in the affine type A flag variety via…

We discuss a practical algorithm to compute parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. As an application we compute Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials which are needed to evaluate a character formula for reductive groups due to Lusztig. Some…

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…

We give a characterization of the Dynkin elements of a simple Lie algebra. Namely, we prove that one-half of a Dynkin element is the unique point of minimal length in its N-region. In type A_n this translates into a statement about the…

With an eye to applications to type A and Schur-Weyl duality, we study Kazhdan-Lusztig bases for a general parabolic Hecke algebra. Parabolic Hecke algebras are idempotent subalgebras of Hecke algebras corresponding to parabolic subgroups,…

In 2015, Lusztig [Bull. Inst. Math. Acad. Sin. (N.S.)10(2015), no.1, 1-72] showed that for a connected reductive group over an algebraic closure of a finite field the associated (geometric) Hecke category admits a truncation in a two-sided…

We deduce the Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture on the multiplicities of simple modules over a simple complex Lie algebra in Verma modules in category O from the equivariant geometric Satake correspondence and the analysis of torus fixed points in…

We refine an idea of Deodhar, whose goal is a counting formula for Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. This is a consequence of a simple observation that one can use the solution of Soergel's conjecture to make ambiguities involved in defining…

The finite-dimensional restricted simple Lie algebras of characteristic p > 5 are classical or of Cartan type. The classical algebras are analogues of the simple complex Lie algebras and have a well-advanced representation theory with…

This paper is a continuation of [5]. Using the root categories, we define the compact real forms of the complex semisimple Lie algebras, and maximal compact subgroups of the Chevalley groups over $\mathbb{C}$. In [7], Lusztig used the…

The lowest two-sided cell of the extended affine Weyl group $W_e$ is the set $\{w \in W_e: w = x \cdot w_0 \cdot z, \text{for some} x,z \in W_e\}$, denoted $W_{(\nu)}$. We prove that for any $w \in W_{(\nu)}$, the canonical basis element…

In 1979, Lusztig proposed a cohomological construction of supercuspidal representations of reductive $p$-adic groups, analogous to Deligne-Lusztig theory for finite reductive groups. In this paper we establish a new instance of Lusztig's…
