SPUR is finally over! Instead of continuing my series of blog posts, I thought I’d just link to my paper, Lattice paths and the quadratic coefficient of Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials, and the first few blog posts should more or less provide enough background to read it. My project ended up changing direction. The formula I was [...]

The Hecke algebra attached to a Coxeter system is a deformation of the group algebra of defined as follows. Take the free -module with basis , and impose the multiplicative relations if , and otherwise. (For now, ignore the square root of .) Humphreys proves that these relations describe a unique associative algebra structure on [...]
