The Hodge theory of the Hecke category (Q1620872): Difference between revisions

In this really nicely written survey, the author presents an interesting outline on the Hodge theory and their applications in the context of combinatorial problems and the Hecke category. Starting with the combinatorial Hodge theory, the author explains how one can prove that the coefficients of characteristic polynomials associated to simple matroids form log-concave sequences, and this generalises a similar log-concavity property for the chromatic polynomials of graphs. Afterwards, the author presents an interesting positivity phenomenon on Kazhdan-Lusting basis for Hecke algebras and then he focuses on a link between Hodge theory and Soergel bimodules.
