This is the typewritten version of a handwritten manuscript which was completed by Ian G. Macdonald in 1987 or 1988. The manuscript is a very informal working paper, never intended for formal publication. Nevertheless, copies of the manuscript have circulated widely, giving rise to quite a few citations in the subsequent 25 years. Therefore it seems justified to make the manuscript available for the whole mathematical community. The author kindly gave his permission that a typewritten version be posted on arXiv.
