Lower bounds for Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials from patterns

Sara Billey, Tom Braden

Published 2002-02-24, updated 2003-09-30Version 5

We give a lower bound for the value at q=1 of a Kazhdan-Lustig polynomial in a Weyl group W in terms of "patterns''. This is expressed by a "pattern map" from W to W' for any parabloic subgroup W'. This notion generalizes the concept of patterns and pattern avoidance for permutations to all Weyl groups. The main tool of the proof is a "hyperbolic localization" on intersection cohomology; see the related paper http://front.math.ucdavis.edu/math.AG/0202251
