Kazhdan-Lusztig Cells In Planar Hyperbolic Coxeter Groups And Automata, Mikhail V. Belolipetsky, Paul E. Gunnells, Richard A. Scott

Paul Gunnells

Let C be a one- or two-sided Kazhdan–Lusztig cell in a Coxeter group (W, S), and let Red(C) be the set of reduced expressions of all w ∈ C, regarded as a language over the alphabet S. Casselman has conjectured that Red(C) is regular. In this paper, we give a conjectural description of the cells when W is the group corresponding to a hyperbolic polygon, and show that our conjectures imply Casselman's.

Generalised Burnside Rings, G-Categories And Module Categories, Paul E. Gunnells, Andrew Rose, Dmitriy Rumynin

Paul Gunnells

This note describes an application of the theory of generalised Burnside rings to algebraic representation theory. Tables of marks are given explicitly for the groups S4 and S5 which are of particular interest in the context of reductive algebraic groups. As an application, the base sets for the nilpotent element F4(a3) are computed.
