title: The left cells with \(a\)-values 5, 6 in the affine Weyl group \(\widetilde E_8\).
published in: The Australasian Journal of Combinatorics
review text: In this paper, the authors describe all the left cells of \(a\)-values 5, 6 in the affine Weyl group \(\widetilde E_8\). First of all, they show that each of those left cells is left-connected, and this fact supports a conjecture of Lusztig. For any two-sided cell \(\Omega\) of \(\widetilde E_8\) with \(a(\Omega)\in\{5,6\}\), they find all the distinguished involutions in those left cells which occur as the vertices of the corresponding distinguished involution graphs, and they also obtain all the corresponding left cell graphs.NEWLINENEWLINE They display all the elements of \(E(\Omega)=\{w\in\Omega\mid a(sw)<a(w),\;\forall s\in\mathcal L(\Omega)\}\), all the distinguished involution graphs and all the left cell graphs for \(\Omega\) in the appendices of the electronic version of the paper [\url{http://www.math.ecnu.edu.cn/jyshi/intro.htm}] and only attach a small portion of them to the present paper.
