To each finite Coxeter system (W,S) and to each weight function L, Lusztig has defined the notions of constructible characters and of Lusztig families of W, using the so-called J-induction. Whenever L is constant, and using a general…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a finite field $\mathfrak{f}$ of order $q$. When $q$ is small, we make further assumptions on $G$. Then we determine precisely when $G(\mathfrak{f})$ admits irreducible, cuspidal representations…

The $q$-analog of Kostant's weight multiplicity formula is an alternating sum over a finite group, known as the Weyl group, whose terms involve the $q$-analog of Kostant's partition function. This formula, when evaluated at $q=1$, gives the…

Let g be a complex simple Lie algebra and let V be a finite dimensional U(g) module. A relative Yangian is defined with respect to this pair. According to recent work of Khoroshkin and Nazarov the finite dimensional simple modules of the…

We consider the partition of a finite Coxeter group $W$ into left cells with respect to a weight function $L$. In the equal parameter case, Lusztig has shown that the representations carried by the left cells are precisely the so-called…

We classify Lie-Poisson brackets that are formed from Lie algebra extensions. The problem is relevant because many physical systems owe their Hamiltonian structure to such brackets. A classification involves reducing all brackets to a set…

We generalize the results of [KMST] concerning equivariant quantization by means of Verma modules $M(\lambda)$ for generic weight $\lambda$ to the case of general $\lambda$. We consider the relationship between the Shapovalov form on an…

We use Arkhipov's twisting functors to show that the universal enveloping algebra of a semi-simple complex finite-dimensional Lie algebra surjects onto the space of ad-finite endomorphisms of the simple highest weight module $L(\lambda)$,…

Hilbert--Lie groups are Lie groups whose Lie algebra is a real Hilbert space whose scalar product is invariant under the adjoint action. These infinite-dimensional Lie groups are the closest relatives to compact Lie groups. Here we study…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system and $\ast$ an automorphism of $W$ with order $\leq 2$ and $S^{\ast}=S$. Lusztig and Vogan ([11], [14]) have introduced a $u$-deformed version $M_u$ of Kottwitz's involution module over the Iwahori-Hecke…

Consider a family of modular forms of weight 2, all of whose residual $\pmod{p}$ Galois representations are isomorphic. It is well-known that their corresponding Iwasawa $\lambda$-invariants may vary. In this paper, we study this variation…

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 introduce the notion of non commutative truncated polynomial extension of an algebra A. We study two families of these extensions. For the first one we obtain a complete classification and for the second one, which we call upper…

For a complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ or rank $r$, let $\rho$ be the half sum of positive roots and $P(2\rho)\subset \mathbb{R}^r$ be the convex hull of all dominant weights $\lambda$ of the form $\lambda=2\rho-\sum_{i=1}^r…

Let $(W, S)$ be a Coxeter system equipped with a fixed automorphism $\ast$ of order $\leq 2$ which preserves $S$. Lusztig (and with Vogan in some special cases) have shown that the space spanned by set of "twisted" involutions was naturally…

Given a quaternionic form G of a p-adic classical group (p odd) we classify all cuspidal irreducible representations of G with coefficients in an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from p. We prove two theorems: At…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field. Let $B$ be a Borel subgroup of $G$ and $W$ be the associated Weyl group. We show that for any $w \in W$ that is not contained in any standard parabolic subgroup of…

We discuss a practical algorithm to compute parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. As an application we compute Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials which are needed to evaluate a character formula for reductive groups due to Lusztig. Some…

We describe the equivariant K-groups of a family of generalized Steinberg varieties that interpolates between the Steinberg variety of a reductive, complex algebraic group and its nilpotent cone in terms of the extended affine Hecke algebra…

In this paper we determine the partition into Kazhdan-Lusztig cells of the affine Weyl groups of type $\tB_{2}$ and $\tG_{2}$ for any choice of parameters. Using these partitions we show that the semicontinuity conjecture of Bonnaf\'e holds…
