We study Lusztig's theory of cells for quantum affine $\mathfrak{sl}_n$. Using the geometric construction of the quantum group due to Lusztig and Ginzburg--Vasserot, we describe explicitly the two-sided cells, the number of left cells in a…

We compute the based rings of two-sided cells corresponding to the unipotent class in $Sp_6(\mathbb C)$ with Jordan blocks (2211). The results also verify Lusztig's conjecture on the structure of the based rings of the two-sided cells of an…

Distinguished involutions in the affine Weyl groups, defined by G. Lusztig, play an essential role in the Kazhdan-Lusztig combinatorics of these groups. A distinguished involution is called canonical if it is the shortest element in its…

We prove a weak version of Lusztig's conjecture on explicit description of the asymptotic Hecke algebras (both finite and affine), and explain its relation to Lusztig's classification of character sheaves.

We discuss the classification of reflection subgroups of finite and affine Weyl groups from the point of view of their root systems. A short case free proof is given of the well known classification of the isomorphism classes of reflection…

We give a partial coherent categorification of $J_0$, the based ring of the lowest two sided cell of an affine Weyl group, equipped with a monoidal functor from the category of coherent sheaves on the derived Steinberg variety. We show that…

Extended affine Weyl groups are the Weyl groups of extended affine root systems. Finite presentations for extended affine Weyl groups are known only for nullities $\leq 2$, where for nullity 2 there is only one known such presentation. We…

There is a well-known presentation for finite and affine Weyl groups called the {\it presentation by conjugation}. Recently, it has been proved that this presentation holds for certain sub-classes of extended affine Weyl groups, the Weyl…

Let W be an Iwahori-Weyl group of a connected reductive group G over a non-archimedean local field. I prove that if w is an element of W that does not act on the corresponding apartment of G by a translation then one can apply to w a…

We prove Lusztig's conjectures ${\bf P1}$--${\bf P15}$ for the affine Weyl group of type $\tilde{G}_2$ for all choices of parameters. Our approach to compute Lusztig's $\mathbf{a}$-function is based on the notion of a "balanced system of…

Let W be a Weyl group. We define a new basis for the Grothendieck group of representations of W. This basis contains on the one hand the special representations of W and on the other hand the representations carried by the left cells of W.…

To a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ (with $S$ finite) and a weight function $L : W \to \NM$ is associated a partition of $W$ into Kazhdan-Lusztig (left, right or two-sided) $L$-cells. Let $S^\circ = \{s \in S | L(s)=0\}$, $S^+=\{s \in S | L(s) >…

George Lusztig conjectured that asymptotic affine Hecke algebra of a simply connected group can be explicitly described in terms of convolution algebras. Main Theorem of this note (which is a continuation of RT/0010089) is a weak version of…

In symmetric groups, a two-sided cell is the set of all permutations which are mapped by the Robinson-Schensted correspondence on a pair of tableaux of the same shape. In this article, we show that the set of permutations in a two-sided…

We show that affine Hecke algebras of rank two with generic parameters are affine cellular in the sense of Koenig-Xi.

Using truncated convolution of perverse sheaves on a flag variety Lusztig associated a monoidal category to a two sided cell in the Weyl group. We identify this category in the case which was not decided previously.

We show that the Garnier system in n-variables has affine Weyl group symmetry of type $B^{(1)}_{n+3}$. We also formulate the $\tau$ functions for the Garnier system (or the Schlesinger system of rank 2) on the root lattice $Q(C_{n+3})$ and…

Brane configurations in a circle allow subsequent applications of the Hanany-Witten transitions, which are known as duality cascades. By studying the process of duality cascades corresponding to quantum curves with symmetries of Weyl…

We define a degenerate affine version of the walled Brauer algebra, that has the same role plaid by the degenerate affine Hecke algebra for the symmetric group algebra. We use it to prove a higher level mixed Schur-Weyl duality for gl_N. We…

We study 2-representations of finitary 2-categories with involution and adjunctions by functors on module categories over finite dimensional algebras. In particular, we define, construct and describe in detail (right) cell 2-representations…
