Geometric interpretation of flags and the role of the rook monoid and Kazhdan–Lusztig theory in $M_n(\mathbb{C})$

Let $G = GL_n(\mathbb{C})$, $B$ be its Borel subgroup, and $P$ a parabolic subgroup. The space $G/B$ corresponds to complete flags in $ \mathbb{C}^n$, and $G/P$ corresponds to partial flags. The ...

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: ...

Examples of non-trivial Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials

I'm looking for examples of non-trivial Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials, specifically in the case where the Coxeter system is a Weyl group. For example, the simplest polynomial with non-trivial $q$-...

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}{...

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 ...

Kazhdan-Lusztig basis of the symmetric group algebra $\mathbb{K}S_n$

Let $S_n$ be the symmetric group on the set $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ and $\mathbb{K}$ a field. Denote by $\mathbb{K}S_n$ the symmetric group algebra. What's Kazhdan-Lusztig basis of $\mathbb{K}S_n$? I ...
