Abstract:

Kawanaka obtained explicit formulas for the structure constants in the Hecke algebra $H\left ( {G\left ( q \right ),B\left ( q \right )} \right )$ of a finite Chevalley group $G\left ( q \right )$. This note contains a geometric interpretation of these formulas, involving decompositions of Bruhat cells, in connected reductive algebraic groups.
