We study the local isomorphism classes, also known as genera or weak equivalence classes, of fractional ideals of orders in \'etale algebras. We provide a classification in terms of linear algebra objects over residue fields. As a…
Motivated by a question and some enumerative conjectures of Richard Stanley, we explore the equivalence classes of words in the Weyl algebra, $\mathbf{k} \left< D,U \mid DU - UD = 1 \right>$. We show that each class is generated by the…
Representations of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra of type A_{n-1} are equivalent to representations of the braid group B_n for which the generators satisfy a certain quadratic relation. We show how to construct such representations from the…
It is known that the Weyl families corresponding to unitary boundary pairs $(\mathcal{H},\Gamma)$ belong to the class $\tilde{\mathcal{R}}(\mathcal{H})$ of Nevanlinna families. Here we extend the theorem to the case of essentially unitary…
By algebraic group theory, there is a map from the semisimple conjugacy classes of a finite group of Lie type to the conjugacy classes of the Weyl group. Picking a semisimple class uniformly at random yields a probability measure on…
Let $\mathscr{H}_n$ denote the Iwahori-Hecke algebra corresponding to the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. We set up a Green correspondence for bimodules of these Hecke algebras, and a Brauer correspondence between their blocks. We examine…
We study the family of derived auto-equivalences of the BGG-category O that correspond to the action of the standard generators of the Hecke algebra. Both the non-graded and graded situations are considered.
In this paper, and a second part to follow, we complete the programme (initiated more than 15 years ago) of determining the decomposition numbers and verifying James' Conjecture for Iwahori--Hecke algebras of exceptional type. The new…
Let $\bH$ be the generic Iwahori--Hecke algebra associated with a finite Coxeter group $W$. Recently, we have shown that $\bH$ admits a natural cellular basis in the sense of Graham--Lehrer, provided that $W$ is a Weyl group and all…
We define an extension of the affine Brauer algebra, the type B/C affine Brauer algebra. This new algebra contains the hyperoctahedral group and it naturally acts on $END_K(X \otimes V^{\otimes k})$ for Orthogonal and Symplectic groups.…
We show that diagrammatic sets, a topologically sound alternative to polygraphs and strict $\omega$-categories, admit an internal notion of equivalence in the sense of coinductive weak invertibility. We prove that equivalences have the…
We compute two-sided cells of Weyl groups of type $B$ for the "asymptotic" choice of parameters. We also obtain some partial results concerning Kazhdan-Lusztig conjectures in this particular case.
The exceptional complex reflection groups of rank 2 are partitioned into three families. We construct explicit matrix models for the Hecke algebras associated to the maximal groups in the tetrahedral and octahedral family, and use them to…
In this paper we use the Hecke algebra of type $B$ to define a new algebra $\Sch$ which is an analogue of the q-Schur algebra. We construct Weyl modules for $\Sch$ and obtain, as factor modules, a family of irreducible $\Sch$-modules over…
Lie-theoretic structures of type $E_8$ (e.g., Lie groups and algebras, Hecke algebras and Kazhdan-Lusztig cells, ...) are considered to serve as a `gold standard' when it comes to judging the effectiveness of a general algorithm for solving…
We prove a new kind of stabilisation result, "secondary homological stability", for the homology of mapping class groups of orientable surfaces with one boundary component. These results are obtained by constructing CW approximations to the…
We define an imbedding of the Hecke algebra module carried by the involutions in a Weyl group W (defined by the author and Vogan) into a completion of the Hecke algebra. An analogous result is proved for any Coxeter group. A variant of the…
Let W be a Coxeter group and L be a weight function on W. Following Lusztig, we have a corresponding decomposition of W into left cells, which have important applications in representation theory. We study the case where $W$ is an affine…
Let R be the set of isomorphism classes of ideals in the Weyl algebra $A=A_{1}$, and let C be the set of isomorphism classes of triples (V; X, Y), where V is a finite-dimensional (complex) vector space, and X, Y are endomorphisms of V such…
We consider the group algebra over the field of complex numbers of the Weyl group of type B (the hyperoctahedral group, or the group of signed permutations) and of the Weyl group of type D (the demihyperoctahedral group, or the group of…
