Abstract

Let W be a Coxeter group and L be a weight function on W. Following Lusztig, we have a corresponding decomposition of W into left cells which have important applications in representation theory. We study the case where W is an affine Weyl group of type G ˜ 2 . Using explicit computation with COXETER and CHEVIE, we show that (1) there are only finitely many possible decompositions into left cells and (2) the number of left cells is finite in each case, thus confirming some of Lusztig's conjectures in this case. A key ingredient of the proof is a general result which shows that the Kazhdan–Lusztig polynomials of affine Weyl group are invariant under (large enough) translations.
