We define and study generalized nil-Coxeter algebras associated to Coxeter groups. Motivated by a question of Coxeter (1957), we construct the first examples of such finite-dimensional algebras that are not the 'usual' nil-Coxeter algebras:…
Motivated by work of Coxeter (1957), we study a class of algebras associated to Coxeter groups, which we term 'generalized nil-Coxeter algebras'. We construct the first finite-dimensional examples other than usual nil-Coxeter algebras;…
We investigate the extensions of the Hecke algebras of finite (complex) reflection groups by lattices of reflection subgroups that we introduced, for some of them, in our previous work on the Yokonuma-Hecke algebras and their connections…
We attach to every Coxeter system (W,S) an extension C_W of the corresponding Iwahori-Hecke algebra. We construct a 1-parameter family of (generically surjective) morphisms from the group algebra of the corresponding Artin group onto C_W.…
Let $W_0$ be a reflection subgroup of a finite complex reflection group $W$, and let $B_0$ and $B$ be their respective braid groups. In order to construct a Hecke algebra $\widetilde{H}_0$ for the normalizer $N_W(W_0)$, one first considers…
We refine the infinitesimal Hecke algebra associated to a 2-reflection group into a $\Z/2\Z$-graded Lie algebra, as a first step towards a global understanding of a natural $\mathbbm{N}$-graded object. We provide an interpretation of this…
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…
For W a finite (2-)reflection group and B its (generalized) braid group, we determine the Zariski closure of the image of B inside the corresponding Iwahori-Hecke algebra. The Lie algebra of this closure is reductive and generated in the…
We investigate the representations and the structure of Hecke algebras associated to certain finite complex reflection groups. We first describe computational methods for the construction of irreducible representations of these algebras,…
Hopf algebroids are generalizations of Hopf algebras to less commutative settings. We show how the comultiplication defined by Kostant and Kumar turns the affine nil Hecke algebra associated to a Coxeter system into a Hopf algebroid without…
The graded Hecke algebra for a finite Weyl group is intimately related to the geometry of the Springer correspondence. A construction of Drinfeld produces an analogue of a graded Hecke algebra for any finite subgroup of GL(V). This paper…
We study the Hecke algebra $\H(\bq)$ over an arbitrary field $\FF$ of a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ with independent parameters $\bq=(q_s\in\FF:s\in S)$ for all generators. This algebra is always linearly spanned by elements indexed by the…
This paper extends the foundational reflection theory of Nichols algebras to the setting of some certain coquasi-Hopf algebras. Our primary motivation arises from the classification of pointed finite-dimensional coquasi-Hopf algebras. We…
The usual combinatorial model for the 0-Hecke algebra of the symmetric group is to consider the algebra (or monoid) generated by the bubble sort operators. This construction generalizes to any finite Coxeter group W. The authors previously…
We study the (complex) Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}_S(\mathbf{q})$ of a finite simply-laced Coxeter system $(W,S)$ with independent parameters $\mathbf{q} \in \left( \mathbb{C} \setminus\{\text{roots of unity}\} \right)^S$. We construct its…
Let $\mathcal{L}$ be the noncrossing partition lattice associated to a finite Coxeter group $W$. In this paper we construct explicit bases for the top homology groups of intervals and rank-selected subposets of $\mathcal{L}$. We define a…
We construct finite-dimensional Hopf algebras whose coradical is the group algebra of a central extension of an abelian group. They fall into families associated to a semisimple Lie algebra together with a Dynkin diagram automorphism. We…
Between 1994 and 1998, the work of M. Brou\'e, G. Malle, and R. Rouquier generalized in a natural way the definition of the Hecke algebra associated to a finite Coxeter group, for the case of an arbitrary complex reflection group.…
We formulate the generation of finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebras by group-like elements and skew-primitives in geometric terms. This is done through a more general study of connected and coconnected Hopf algebras inside a braided…
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…
