Two-sided hyperbolic Kazhdan-Lusztig cells
Here are pictures of Kazhdan-Lusztig cells for some hyperbolic
planar Coxeter groups. The pictures were generated by kludging together
different pieces of software:
- Automatic group computations, like getting a list of all words in a
Coxeter group up to a given length, or finding canonical reduced
expressions for group elements, were done using
Derek Holt's program
kbmag2.
- Computation of Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials was done by a hacked
version of
Fokko du Cloux's program coxeter.
- The hyperbolic Postscript routines were written by
Bill Casselman.
- Finally, everything was glued together using
Perl.
Each group can be downloaded in gzipped Postscript, Postscript, or
PDF. The Postscript files look better at different sizes, but they
are rather large. You can get the whole mess as a gzipped
tarfile of Postscript files.
The notation p q r means the triangle group generated by reflections
through the sides of a hyperbolic triangle with angles (Pi/p, Pi/q,
Pi/r).

Here the notation p q r s means the group generated by reflections
through the sides of a hyperbolic quadrilateral with angles (Pi/p,
Pi/q, Pi/r, Pi/s).
