Among other things, we describe the emptiness/nonemptiness pattern of $X_w(1)$ if the translation part of $w$ is quasi-regular. As a by-product, we give a new proof of the explicit description of $\\bar F$, first obtained in \\cite{H1}.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-03-01T02:23:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14M27", "20G15" ], "keywords": [ "affine deligne-lusztig varieties", "steinberg fiber", "affine flag variety", "adjoint group", "translation part" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1003.0238H" } } }
