Does this finitely-generated algebra have a name?

I've been led to consider certain finitely-generated algebras that arise from some Coxeter groups (finite and affine Weyl groups at least). As a very concrete example, consider the infinite dihedral ...

Motivation for the Kazhdan-Lusztig involution

I would like to know about the motivation behind the Kazhdan–Lusztig involution on an Iwahori–Hecke algebra. I'll borrow the conventions from Libedinsky's Gentle introduction to Soergel bimodules I: ...

Kazhdan-Lusztig basis elements appearing in product with distinguished involution

My apologies if the below is too malformed to make sense. Let $(W,S)$ be the affine Weyl group of a reductive group $G$, and let $\{C_w\}$ be the Kazhdan-Lusztig $C$-basis (an answer in terms of the $...

Reference request: Finite (multi-parameter) Iwahori-Hecke algebras are pairwise isomorphic

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system. Let $q=(q_s)_{s\in S} \in \mathbb{R}^{\text{#}S}$ be a tuple of positive real numbers with $q_s=q_t$ whenever $s$ and $t$ are conjugate to each other. Follwing Davis', ...

Number of pairs of permutation in $S_n$ whose $\mu$-coefficient (of their Kazhdan Lusztig polynomial) is non-zero

I am interested in how many pairs of permutations $(u,w)$ in $S_n$, such that the $\mu$-coefficient of its Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial $P_{u,w}(q)$ is non-zero? where $\mu_{u,w}=[q^{\frac{l(w)-l(u)-1}{...

A spin extension of a Coxeter group?

Consider a Coxeter group $W$ with simple generators $S$ and Coxeter matrix $\left( m_{s,t}\right) _{\left( s,t\right) \in S\times S}$. Let $\mathfrak{M}$ be the set of all pairs $\left(s, t\right) ...

Cellular basis of $KW(B_2)$

Take $K$ a field. Let $W(B_2)$ be the coxeter group of type $B_2$ with a set $\{s_0,s_1\}$ of generators. Then $W(B_2)=\{1, s_0,s_1,s_0s_1,s_1s_0,s_0s_1s_0, s_1s_0s_1,s_1s_0s_1s_0\}$. I know that the ...

Shifts in the decomposition of Bott-Samelson bimodules

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$, let $V=k^n$ be a $k$ vector space of dimension $n$, and let $R=k[V]$ be the ring of polynomial functions on $V$. Suppose that $W\subset\...

Highest (short) roots and commutation relations in (twisted) DAHA

I am trying to understand, explicitly, the commutation relation between $X_\vartheta$ and $Y_\vartheta = T_0T_{s_\vartheta}$ in the (twisted) DAHA for a root system $R$, where $\vartheta$ is the ...

Kazhdan-Luzstig Polynomials and Lower Intervals in the Bruhat Order

I have read in a number of places that the lower Bruhat interval $[e, w]$ is rank-symmetric if and only if the KL-polynomial $P_{e, w}(q) = 1$. All of the proofs I've come across use "rationally ...

Are there Hamilton paths in Cayley graphs of Coxeter groups?

Hi everyone. I want to optimize certain computation on finite Coxeter groups $(W,S)$. Basically I compute the matrices $\rho(T_w)$ for all $w\in W$ of a matrix representation $H\to K^{d\times d}$ of ...

Subexpressions of reduced words in Coxeter groups

Let $\underline{w} = [s_1, s_2, \dots ,s_n]$ be a reduced expression in a Coxeter group $W$. Given $x$ in $W$ one can consider the set $\Pi(\underline{w},x)$ consisting of all subexpressions of $\...

Is Soergel's proof of Kazhdan-Lusztig positivity for Weyl groups independent of other proofs?

Let $(W, S)$ be a Coxeter system. Soergel defined a category of bimodules $B$ over a polynomial ring whose split Grothendieck group is isomorphic to the Hecke algebra $H$ of $W$. Conjecturally, the ...
