Kazhdan-Lusztig basis and a geometric filtration of an affine Hecke algebra. II. (Q610661): Difference between revisions

Summary: An affine Hecke algebra can be realized as an equivariant \(K\)-group of the corresponding Steinberg variety. This gives rise naturally to some two-sided ideals of the affine Hecke algebra by means of the closures of nilpotent orbits of the corresponding Lie algebra. In this paper we show that the two-sided ideals are in fact the two-sided ideals of the affine Hecke algebra defined through two-sided cells of the corresponding affine Weyl group after the two-sided ideals are tensored by \(\mathbb{Q}\). This proves a weak form of a conjecture of Ginzburg proposed in 1987. For part I cf. \textit{T. Tanisaki} and \textit{N. Xi}, Nagoya Math. J. 182, 285-311 (2006; Zbl 1165.20003).
