An inductive approach to the representation theory of the chain of the complex reflection groups G(m,1,n) is presented. We obtain the Jucys-Murphy elements of G(m,1,n) from the Jucys--Murphy elements of the cyclotomic Hecke algebra, and…
We generalize random-to-random shuffling from a Markov chain on the symmetric group to one on the Type A Iwahori Hecke algebra, and show that its eigenvalues are polynomials in q with non-negative integer coefficients. Setting q=1 recovers…
We study a family of shuffling operators on the symmetric group $S_n$, which includes the top-to-random shuffle. The general shuffling scheme consists of removing one card at a time from the deck (according to some probability distribution)…
In this thesis we introduce a new type of card shuffle called the one-sided transposition shuffle. At each step a card is chosen uniformly from the pack and then transposed with another card chosen uniformly from below it. This defines a…
We introduce a new type of card shuffle called one-sided transpositions. At each step a card is chosen uniformly from the pack and then transposed with another card chosen uniformly from below it. This defines a random walk on the symmetric…
We consider the algebra of Hecke correspondences (elementary transformations at a single point) acting on the algebraic K-theory groups of the moduli spaces of stable sheaves on a smooth projective surface S. We derive quadratic relations…
Multiplicative analogues of the shuffle elements of the braid group rings are introduced; in local representations they give rise to certain graded associative algebras (b-shuffle algebras). For the Hecke and BMW algebras, the…
A deck of $n$ cards are shuffled by repeatedly taking off the top card, flipping it with probability $1/2$, and inserting it back into the deck at a random position. This process can be considered as a Markov chain on the group $B_n$ of…
Properties of relative traces and symmetrizing forms on chains of cyclotomic and affine Hecke algebras are studied. The study relies on a use of bases of these algebras which generalize a normal form for elements of the complex reflection…
The *somewhere-to-below shuffles* are the elements \[ t_{\ell} := \operatorname{cyc}_{\ell}+\operatorname{cyc}_{\ell,\ell+1}+\operatorname{cyc}_{\ell,\ell+1,\ell+2}+\cdots+\operatorname{cyc}_{\ell,\ell+1,\ldots,n} \] (for $\ell \in…
In this paper we compute the explicit value of the standard symmetrizing form of the cyclotomic Hecke algebra of type $G(\ell,1,n)$ on each Murphy basis element. We do this for both the non-degenerate cyclotomic Hecke algebra of type…
Consider a permutation $\sigma\in S_n$ as a deck of cards numbered from 1 to $n$ and laid out in a row, where $\sigma_j$ denotes the number of the card that is in the $j$-th position from the left.\rm\ We define two cyclic to random…
The random-to-top and the riffle shuffle are two well-studied methods for shuffling a deck of cards. These correspond to the symmetric group $S_n$, i.e., the Coxeter group of type $A_{n-1}$. In this paper, we give analogous shuffles for the…
Generalizing the dihedral picture for G(M,M,2), we construct Hecke algebras (and present a strategy for constructing Hecke categories) and asymptotic counterparts. We think of these as associated with the complex reflection group G(M,M,N).
This paper classifies the blocks of the cyclotomic Hecke algebras of type G(r,1,n) over an arbitrary field. Rather than working with the Hecke algebras directly we work instead with the cyclotomic Schur algebras. The advantage of these…
The commutative trigonometric shuffle algebra ${\mathrm A}$ is a space of symmetric rational functions satisfying certain wheel conditions. We describe a ring isomorphism between ${\mathrm A}$ and the center of the Hecke algebra using a…
We describe and compute various families of commuting elements of the matrix shuffle algebra of type $\mathfrak{gl}_{n|m}$, which is expected to be isomorphic to quantum toroidal $\mathfrak{gl}_{n|m}$. Our formulas are given in terms of…
We define alternating cyclotomic Hecke algebras in higher levels as subalgebras of cyclotomic Hecke algebras under an analogue of Goldman's hash involution. We compute the rank of these algebras and construct a full set of irreducible…
For positive integers $k$ and $n$, the shuffle group $G_{k,kn}$ is generated by the $k!$ permutations of a deck of $kn$ cards performed by cutting the deck into $k$ piles with $n$ cards in each pile, and then perfectly interleaving these…
We compute the centre of the cyclotomic Hecke algebra attached to $G(m,1,2)$ and show that if $q \neq 1$ it is equal to the image of the centre of the affine Hecke algebra $\Ha$. We also briefly discuss what is known about the relation…
