We define new deformations of group algebras of Coxeter groups W and of subgroups of even elements in them, by deforming the braid relations. We show that these deformations are algebraically flat iff they are formally flat, and that this…

Let $W$ be a Coxeter group whose proper parabolic subgroups are finite. According to Theorem~1.12 of [1], if the module of a finite $W$-digraph $\Gamma$ is isomorphic to the module of a $W$-graph over $Q$, then $\Gamma$ is acyclic. We…

We consider an involution on the affine Weyl group of type $A$ induced from the nontrivial automorphism on the (finite) Dynkin diagram. We prove that the number of left cells fixed by this involution in each two-sided cell is given by a…

We introduce a class of induced representations of the degenerate double affine Hecke algebra of gl_N and analyze their structure mainly by means of intertwiners. We also construct them from modules of the affine Lie algebra using…

Let $G$ be a direct product of inner forms of general linear groups over non-archimedean locally compact fields of residue characteristic $p$ and let $K^1$ be the pro-$p$-radical of a maximal compact open subgroup of $G$. In this paper we…

These lectures given in Montreal in Summer 1997 are mainly based on, and form a condensed survey of, the book by N. Chriss and V. Ginzburg: `Representation Theory and Complex Geometry', Birkhauser 1997. Various algebras arising naturally in…

The blob algebra is a finite-dimensional quotient of the Hecke algebra of type $B$ which is almost always quasi-hereditary. We construct the indecomposable tilting modules for the blob algebra over a field of characteristic $0$ in the…

Given a finite group $G$ and a subgroup $K$, we study the commutant of $\text{Ind}_K^G\theta$, where $\theta$ is an irreducible $K$-representation. After a careful analysis of Frobenius reciprocity, we are able to introduce an orthogonal…

The permutation representation afforded by a Coxeter group W acting on the cosets of a standard parabolic subgroup inherits many nice properties from W such as a shellable Bruhat order and a flat deformation over Z[q] to a representation of…

Let $p$ and $\ell$ be primes such that $p > 3$ and $p \mid \ell-1$ and $k$ be an even integer. We use deformation theory of pseudo-representations to study the completion of the Hecke algebra acting on the space of cuspidal modular forms of…

An element of a Coxeter group $W$ is fully commutative if any two of its reduced decompositions are related by a series of transpositions of adjacent commuting generators. In the present work, we focus on fully commutative involutions,…

Aiming for a revival of the theory of crystallographic complex reflection groups, we compute (minimal) Coxeter-like reflection presentations for the infinite families of those non-genuine groups which satisfy Steinberg's fixed point…

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…

We consider the question of determining whether a given group (especially one generated by involutions) is a right-angled Coxeter group. We describe a group invariant, the involution graph, and we characterize the involution graphs of…

Consider a connected reductive algebraic group $ G $ and a symmetric subgroup $ K $. Let $ \mathfrak{X} = K/B_K \times G/P $ be a double flag variety of finite type, where $ B_K $ is a Borel subgroup of $ K $, and $ P $ a parabolic subgroup…

By a result of Mathas, the basis element T_{w_0} of the Hecke algebra of a finite Coxeter group acts in the canonical basis of a cell module as a permutation matrix times plus or minus a power of v. We generalize this result to the unequal…

Using the geometry of the associated Calogero-Moser space, R. Rouquier and the author have attached to any finite complex reflection group $W$ several notions (Calogero-Moser left, right or two-sided cells, Calogero-Moser cellular…

We use the author's combinatorial theory of full heaps (defined in math.QA/0605768) to categorify the action of a large class of Weyl groups on their root systems, and thus to give an elementary and uniform construction of a family of…

This paper concerns a generalization of the Rees algebra of ideals due to Eisenbud, Huneke and Ulrich that works for any finitely generated module over a noetherian ring. Their definition is in terms of maps to free modules. We give an…
