Abstract: In this paper, we explore the use of path idempotents for the Hecke algebra of type A at roots of unity. For q a primitive ell-th root of unity we obain a non-unital imbedding of (a quotient of) the group algebra of Sm into (a quotient of) the Hecke algebra Hn(q) for certain m and n. From this we recover certain instances of irreducibility criteria of Dipper, James, and Mathas, and we derive estimates on the decomposition numbers for the Hecke algebra at roots of unity. The bounds are easily computed, provide a good geometric picture of the pairs of diagrams lambda, mu for which the decomposition number dlambda,mu is non-zero, and also appers to be a useful adjunct to the exact computation of the decomposition numbers.
