Abstract: Following Lusztig, we investigate constructible characters, leading coefficients and left cells for a finite Coxeter group in the case of unequal parameters. We obtain explicit results for of type , and ( even) which support Lusztig's conjecture that known results about left cells in the equal parameter case should remain valid in the case of unequal parameters.
