International audience Projective reflection groups have been recently defined by the second author. They include a special class of groups denoted G(r,p,s,n) which contains all classical Weyl groups and more generally all the complex reflection groups of type G(r,p,n). In this paper we define some statistics analogous to descent number and major index over the projective reflection groups G(r,p,s,n), and we compute several generating functions concerning these parameters. Some aspects of the representation theory of G(r,p,s,n), as distribution of one-dimensional characters and computation of Hilbert series of some invariant algebras, are also treated. Les groupes de réflexions projectifs ont été récemment définis par le deuxième auteur. Ils comprennent une classe spéciale de groupes notée G(r,p,s,n), qui contient tous les groupes de Weyl classiques et plus généralement tous les groupes de réflexions complexes du type G(r,p,n). Dans ce papier on définit des statistiques analogues au nombre de descentes et à l'indice majeur pour les groupes G(r,p,s,n), et on calcule plusieurs fonctions génératrices. Certains aspects de la théorie des représentations de G(r,p,s,n), comme la distribution des caractères linéaires et le calcul de la série de Hilbert de quelques algèbres d'invariants, sont aussi abordés.

Abstract We define and study odd and even analogues of the major index statistics for the classical Weyl groups. More precisely, we show that the generating functions of these statistics, twisted by the one-dimensional characters of the corresponding groups, always factor in an explicit way. In particular, we obtain odd and even analogues of Carlitz’s identity, of the Gessel–Simion Theorem, and a parabolic extension, and refinement, of a result of Wachs.

It is shown that, under mild conditions, a complex reflection group $G(r,p,n)$ may be decomposed into a set-wise direct product of cyclic subgroups. This property is then used to extend the notion of major index and a corresponding Hilbert series identity to these and other closely related groups.

International audience We introduce the class of projective reflection groups which includes all complex reflection groups. We show that several aspects involving the combinatorics and the representation theory of complex reflection groups find a natural description in this wider setting. On introduit la classe des groupes de réflexions projectifs, ce qui généralise la notion de groupe engendré par des réflexions. On montre que plusieurs aspects concernant la combinatoire et la théorie des représentations des groupes de réflexions complexes trouvent une description naturelle dans ce cadre plus général.

International audience A finite subgroup $G$ of $GL(n,\mathbb{C})$ is involutory if the sum of the dimensions of its irreducible complex representations is given by the number of absolute involutions in the group, i.e. elements $g \in G$ such that $g \bar{g}=1$, where the bar denotes complex conjugation. A uniform combinatorial model is constructed for all non-exceptional irreducible complex reflection groups which are involutory including, in particular, all infinite families of finite irreducible Coxeter groups. If $G$ is a classical Weyl group this result is much refined in a way which is compatible with the Robinson-Schensted correspondence on involutions. Un sous-groupe fini $G$ de GL(n,ℂ) est dit involutoire si la somme des dimensions de ses représentations irréductibles complexes est donné par le nombre de involutions absolues dans le groupe, c'est-a-dire le nombre de éléments $g \in G$ tels que $g \bar{g}=1$, où le bar dénote la conjugaison complexe. Un modèle combinatoire uniforme est construit pour tous les groupes de réflexions complexes irréductibles qui sont involutoires, en comprenant, toutes les familles de groupes de Coxeter finis irréductibles. Si $G$ est un groupe de Weyl ce résultat peut se raffiner d'une manière compatible avec la correspondance de Robinson-Schensted sur les involutions.

International audience In type $A$, the $q,t$-Fuß-Catalan numbers $\mathrm{Cat}_n^{(m)}(q,t)$ can be defined as a bigraded Hilbert series of a module associated to the symmetric group $\mathcal{S}_n$. We generalize this construction to (finite) complex reflection groups and exhibit some nice conjectured algebraic and combinatorial properties of these polynomials in $q$ and $t$. Finally, we present an idea how these polynomials could be related to some graded Hilbert series of modules arising in the context of rational Cherednik algebras. This is work in progress. Dans le cas du type $A$, les $q,t$-nombres de Fuß-Catalan $\mathrm{Cat}_n^{(m)}(q,t)$ peuvent être définis comme la série de Hilbert bigraduée d'un certain module associé au groupe symétrique $\mathcal{S}_n$. Nous généralisons cette construction aux groupes de réflexion complexes (finis) et nous formulons de jolies propriétés (conjecturales) algébriques et combinatoires de ces polynômes en $q$ et $t$. Enfin, nous décrivons une idée sur la manière dont ces polynômes pourraient être liés à certaines séries de Hilbert de modules apparaissant dans le contexte des algèbres de Cherednik rationnelles. Ceci est un travail en cours.

The Rouquier blocks of the cyclotomic Hecke algebras, introduced by Rouquier, are a substitute for the families of characters defined by Lusztig for Weyl groups, which can be applied to all complex reflection groups. In this article, we determine them for the cyclotomic Hecke algebras of the groups of the infinite seriesG(de, e, r), thus completing their calculation for all complex reflection groups.

International audience By investigating the action of the 0-Hecke algebra on the coinvariant algebra and the complete flag variety, we interpret generating functions counting the permutations with fixed inverse descent set by their inversion number and major index. En étudiant l'action de l'algèbre de 0-Hecke sur l'algèbre coinvariante et la variété de drapeaux complète, nous interprétons les fonctions génératrices qui comptent les permutations avec un ensemble inverse de descentes fixé, selon leur nombre d'inversions et leur "major index''.

Combinatorics International audience For each integer partition mu, let e (F) over tilde (mu)(q; t) be the coefficient of x(1) ... x(n) in the modified Macdonald polynomial (H) over tilde (mu). The polynomial (F) over tilde (mu)(q; t) can be regarded as the Hilbert series of a certain doubly-graded S(n)-module M(mu), or as a q, t-analogue of n! based on permutation statistics inv(mu) and maj(mu) that generalize the classical inversion and major index statistics. This paper uses the combinatorial definition of (F) over tilde (mu) to prove some recursions characterizing these polynomials, and other related ones, when mu is a two-column shape. Our result provides a complement to recent work of Garsia and Haglund, who proved a different recursion for two-column shapes by representation-theoretical methods. For all mu, we show that e (F) over tilde (mu)(q, t) is divisible by certain q-factorials and t-factorials depending on mu. We use our recursion and related tools to explain some of these factors bijectively. Finally, we present fermionic formulas that express e (F) over tilde ((2n)) (q, t) as a sum of q, t-analogues of n!2(n) indexed by perfect matchings.

AbstractIwahori-Hecke algebras for the infinite series of complex reflection groups G(r, p, n) were constructed recently in the work of Ariki and Koike [AK], Broué andMalle [BM], and Ariki [Ari]. In this paper we give Murnaghan-Nakayama type formulas for computing the irreducible characters of these algebras. Our method is a generalization of that in our earlier paper [HR] in whichwe derivedMurnaghan-Nakayama rules for the characters of the Iwahori-Hecke algebras of the classical Weyl groups. In both papers we have been motivated by C. Greene [Gre], who gave a new derivation of the Murnaghan-Nakayama formula for irreducible symmetric group characters by summing diagonal matrix entries in Young's seminormal representations. We use the analogous representations of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra of G(r, p, n) given by Ariki and Koike [AK] and Ariki [Ari].
