We prove a similar geometric description for Lusztig's asymptotic affine Hecke algebra $J$ identifying it with the sum of equivariant $K$-groups of the squares of ${\\mathbb C}^*$-fixed points in the Springer fibers, as conjectured by Qiu and Xi. As an application, we give a new geometric proof of Lusztig's parametrization of irreducible representations of $J$. We also reprove Braverman-Kazhdan's spectral description of $J$. As another application, we prove a description of the cocenters of $\\mathcal{H}$ and $J$ conjectured by the first author with Braverman, Kazhdan and Varshavsky. The proof is based on a new algebraic description of $J$, which may be of independent interest.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-12-17T02:02:31.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "geometric realization", "lusztigs asymptotic affine hecke algebra", "reprove braverman-kazhdans spectral description", "langlands dual group", "similar geometric description" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 32, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
