In this paper, we give explicit combinatorial descriptions of the left, right, and two-sided Kazhdan--Lusztig cells of $\\mathbf{a}$-value 2 in an irreducible $\\mathbf{a}(2)$-finite Coxeter group. In particular, we introduce elements we call \\emph{stubs} to parameterize the one-sided cells and we characterize the one-sided cells via both star operations and weak Bruhat orders. We also compute the cardinalities of all the one-sided and two-sided cells.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-09-20T19:22:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20F55", "20C08" ], "keywords": [ "finite coxeter systems", "explicit combinatorial descriptions", "finite coxeter group", "one-sided cells", "weak bruhat orders" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 44, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
