Abstract

Affine Hecke algebra Canonical basis Garsia–Procesi modules k-Atoms Symmetric group
We identify a subalgebra H ˆ n + of the extended affine Hecke algebra H ˆ n of type A. The subalgebra H ˆ n + is a u-analogue of the monoid algebra of S n ⋉ Z ⩾ 0 n and inherits a canonical basis from that of H ˆ n . We show that its left cells are naturally labeled by tableaux filled with positive integer entries having distinct residues mod n, which we term positive affine tableaux (PAT). We then exhibit a cellular subquotient R 1 n of H ˆ n + that is a u-analogue of the ring of coinvariants C [ y 1 , … , y n ] / ( e 1 , … , e n ) with left cells labeled by PAT that are essentially standard Young tableaux with cocharge labels. Multiplying canonical basis elements by a certain element π ∈ H ˆ n + corresponds to rotations of words, and on cells corresponds to cocyclage. We further show that R 1 n has cellular quotients R λ that are u-analogues of the Garsia–Procesi modules R λ with left cells labeled by (a PAT version of) the λ-catabolizable tableaux. We give a conjectural description of a cellular filtration of H ˆ n + , the subquotients of which are isomorphic to dual versions of R λ under the perfect pairing on R 1 n . This turns out to be closely related to the combinatorics of the cells of H ˆ n worked out by Shi, Lusztig, and Xi, and we state explicit conjectures along these lines. We also conjecture that the k-atoms of Lapointe, Lascoux and Morse (2003) [9] and the R-catabolizable tableaux of Shimozono and Weyman (2000) [20] have cellular counterparts in H ˆ n + . We extend the idea of atom copies from Lapointe, Lascoux and Morse (2003) [9] to positive affine tableaux and give descriptions, mostly conjectural, of some of these copies in terms of catabolizability.
