Abstract:
Let be a Coxeter group with Coxeter graph . Let be the associated Hecke algebra. We define a certain ideal in and study the quotient algebra . We show that when is one of the infinite series of graphs of type , the quotient is semi-simple. We examine the cell structures of these algebras and construct their irreducible representations. We discuss the case where is of type , , or .
