Comments on New representations of the Hecke algebra and algebraic Bethe Ansatz for an integrable generalized spin ladder, Abstract The authors of cond-mat/9911072 claim to introduce " new representations of the Hecke algebra. " These representations are shown to be the XXC models introduced two years ago in solv-int/9712008, and repeatedly studied and referred to in subsequent papers. They are...

The traces of the Murphy operators of the Hecke algebra Hn(q), and of products of sets of Murphy operators with non-consecutive indices, can be evaluated by a straightforward recursive procedure. These traces are shown to determine all the reduced traces in this algebra, which, in turn, determine all other traces. To illustrate the procedure we obtain the set of reduced traces for H7(q) the low...

We develop and collect techniques for determining Hochschild cohomology of skew group algebras S(V )#G and apply our results to graded Hecke algebras. We discuss the explicit computation of certain types of invariants under centralizer subgroups, focusing on the infinite family of complex reflection groups G(r, p, n) to illustrate our ideas. Resulting formulas for Hochschild two-cocycles give i...

We introduce a new class (in two versions, Au and Bu) of rational double affine Hecke algebras (DaHa) associated to the spin symmetric group. We establish the basic properties of the algebras, such as PBW and Dunkl representation, and connections to Nazarov’s degenerate affine Hecke algebra and to a new degenerate affine Hecke algebra introduced here. We formulate a precise connection between t...

We introduce an analogue of the q-Schur algebra associated to Coxeter systems of type b A n?1. We give two constructions of this algebra. The rst construction realizes the algebra as a certain endomorphism algebra arising from an aane Hecke algebra of type b A r?1 , where n r. This generalizes the original q-Schur algebra as deened by Dipper and James, and the new algebra contains the ordinary ...

We introduce an analogue of the q-Schur algebra associated to Coxeter systems of type A n−1. We give two constructions of this algebra. The first construction realizes the algebra as a certain endomorphism algebra arising from an affine Hecke algebra of type A r−1 , where n ≥ r. This generalizes the original q-Schur algebra as defined by Dipper and James, and the new algebra contains the ordina...

We use the results on the minimal basis of the centre of an Iwahori–Hecke algebra from our earlier work, as well as some additional results on the minimal basis, to describe the image and kernel of the Brauer homomorphism for Iwahori–Hecke algebras defined by L. Jones (Jones, L. Centres of Generic Hecke Algebras; Ph.D. Thesis; University of Virginia, 1987.).

For any finite Coxeter group W , we introduce two new objects: its cutting poset and its biHecke monoid. The cutting poset, constructed using a generalization of the notion of blocks in permutation matrices, almost forms a lattice on W . The construction of the biHecke monoid relies on the usual combinatorial model for the 0-Hecke algebra H0(W ), that is, for the symmetric group, the algebra (o...

In the previous paper [EK1], we formulated a conjecture on the relations between certain classes of irreducible representations of affine Hecke algebras of type B and symmetric crystals for gl ∞ . In the first half of this paper (sections 2 and 3), we give a survey of the LLTA type theorem of the affine Hecke algebra of type A. In the latter half (sections 4, 5 and 6), we review the constructio...
