Quasisplit Hecke algebras and symmetric spaces
Let (G,K) be a symmetric pair over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2, and let σ be an automorphism with square 1 of G preserving K. In this paper we consider the set of pairs (O,L) where O is a σ-stable K-orbit on the flag manifold of G and L is an irreducible K-equiva...

| Summary: | Let (G,K) be a symmetric pair over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2, and let σ be an automorphism with square 1 of G preserving K. In this paper we consider the set of pairs (O,L) where O is a σ-stable K-orbit on the flag manifold of G and L is an irreducible K-equivariant local system on O which is “fixed” by σ. Given two such pairs (O,L), (O',L'), with O' in the closure [bar over O] of O, the multiplicity space of L' in a cohomology sheaf of the intersection cohomology of [bar over O] with coefficients in L (restricted to O') carries an involution induced by σ, and we are interested in computing the dimensions of its +1 and −1 eigenspaces. We show that this computation can be done in terms of a certain module structure over a quasisplit Hecke algebra on a space spanned by the pairs (O,L) as above. |
