Some Kazhdan–Lusztig Coefficients of Affine Weyl Group of Type B~ 2

Let [Formula: see text] be the affine Weyl group of type [Formula: see text], on which we consider the length function [Formula: see text] from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] and the Bruhat order [Formula: see text]. For [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] be the coefficient of [Formula: see text] in Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomial [Formula: see text]. We determine some [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the lowest two-sided cell of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is the higher one. Furthermore, we get some consequences using left or right strings and some properties of leading coefficients.

Symplectic Keys and Demazure Atoms in Type C

We compute, mimicking the Lascoux-Schützenberger type A combinatorial procedure, left and right keys for a Kashiwara-Nakashima tableau in type C. These symplectic keys have a similar role as the keys for semistandard Young tableaux. More precisely, our symplectic keys give a tableau criterion for the Bruhat order on the hyperoctahedral group and cosets, and describe Demazure atoms and characters in type C. The right and the left symplectic keys are related through the Lusztig involution. A type C Schützenberger evacuation is defined to realize that involution.

On the little secondary Bruhat order

Let $R$ and $S$ be two sequences of positive integers in nonincreasing order having the same sum. We denote by ${\cal A}(R,S)$ the class of all $(0,1)$-matrices having row sum vector $R$ and column sum vector $S$. Brualdi and Deaett (More on the Bruhat order for $(0,1)$-matrices, Linear Algebra Appl., 421:219--232, 2007) suggested the study of the secondary Bruhat order on ${\cal A}(R,S)$ but with some constraints. In this paper, we study the cover relation and the minimal elements for this partial order relation, which we call the little secondary Bruhat order, on certain classes ${\cal A}(R,S)$. Moreover, we show that this order is different from the Bruhat order and the secondary Bruhat order. We also study a variant of this order on certain classes of symmetric matrices of ${\cal A}(R,S)$.

Local finiteness of the twisted Bruhat orders on affine Weyl groups

In this paper, we investigate various properties of strong and weak twisted Bruhat orders on a Coxeter group. In particular, we prove that any twisted strong Bruhat order on an affine Weyl group is locally finite, strengthening a result of Dyer [Quotients of twisted Bruhat orders, J. Algebra163 (1994), 3, 861–879]. We also show that, for a non-finite and non-cofinite biclosed set 𝐵 in the positive system of an affine root system with rank greater than 2, the set of elements having a fixed 𝐵-twisted length is infinite. This implies that the twisted strong and weak Bruhat orders have an infinite antichain in those cases. Finally, we show that twisted weak Bruhat order can be applied to the study of the tope poset of an infinite oriented matroid arising from an affine root system.
