We examine the partition of a finite Coxeter group of type $B$ into cells determined by a weight function $L$. The main objective of these notes is to reconcile Lusztig's description of constructible representations in this setting with…
We show that Lusztig's $a$-function of a Coxeter group is bounded if the Coxeter group has a complete graph (i.e. any two vertices are joined) and the cardinalities of finite parabolic subgroups of the Coxeter group have a common upper…
Let C be a one- or two-sided Kazhdan--Lusztig cell in a Coxeter group (W,S), and let Reduced(C) denote the set of reduced expressions of all w in C, regarded as a language over the alphabet S. Casselman has conjectured that Reduced(C) is…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over $\mathbb{C}$ with Weyl group $W$. Following a suggestion of Bezrukavnikov, we define a map from two-sided cells to conjugacy classes in $W$ using the geometry of the affine flag variety. This is…
We consider Kazhdan-Lusztig cells of the symmetric group $S_n$ containing the longest element of a standard parabolic subgroup of $S_n$. Extending some of the ideas in [Beitr{\"a}ge zur Algebra und Geometrie, 59 (2018), no. 3, 523-547] and…
Let $H$ be the Iwahori--Hecke algebra associated with $S_n$, the symmetric group on $n$ symbols. This algebra has two important bases: the Kazhdan--Lusztig basis and the Murphy basis. While the former admits a deep geometric interpretation,…
We prove Lusztig's conjectures ${\bf P1}$-${\bf P15}$ for the affine Weyl group of type $\tilde{C}_2$ for all choices of positive weight function. Our approach to computing Lusztig's $\mathbf{a}$-function is based on the notion of a…
In the last section of the paper "Generalized induction of Kazhdan-Lusztig cells" and in "Kazhdan-Lusztig cells in affine Weyl groups of rank 2" the author described the partition into Kazhdan-Lusztig cells of the affine Weyl groups of rank…
A type of directed multigraph called a W-digraph is introduced to model the structure of certain representations of Hecke algebras, including those constructed by Lusztig and Vogan from involutions in a Weyl group. Building on results of…
In "W-graph ideals" (Robert B. Howlett and Van Minh Nguyen) the concept of a W-graph ideal in a Coxeter group was introduced, and it was shown how a W-graph can be constructed from a given W-graph ideal. In this paper, we describe a class…
We define an axiomatic class of L-functions extending the Selberg class. We show in particular that one can recast the traditional conditions of an Euler product, analytic continuation and functional equation in terms of distributional…
Parallel to the very rich theory of Kazhdan-Lusztig cells in characteristic $0$, we try to build a similar theory in positive characteristic. We study cells with respect to the $p$-canonical basis of the Hecke algebra of a crystallographic…
Let $(W,S)$ be a finite Coxeter group. Kazhdan and Lusztig introduced the concept of $W$-graphs and Gyoja proved that every irreducible representation of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra $H(W,S)$ can be realized as a $W$-graph. Gyoja defined an…
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) >…
We classify a class of complex representations of an arbitrary Coxeter group via characters of the integral homology of certain graphs. Such representations can be viewed as a generalization of the geometric representation and correspond to…
We obtain explicit branching rules for graded cell modules and graded simple modules over the endomorphism algebra of a Bott-Samelson bimodule. These rules allow us to categorify a well-known recursive formula for Kazhdan-Lusztig…
For affine symmetric groups we construct finite $W$-graphs corresponding to two-row shapes, and prove their uniqueness. This gives the first non-trivial family of examples of finite $W$-graphs in an affine type. We compare our construction…
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,…
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…
This paper is the continuation of the work in~\cite{Yin}. In that paper we generalized the definition of $W$-graph ideal in the weighted Coxeter groups, and showed how to construct a $W$-graph from a given $W$-graph ideal in the case of…
