- We consider two families of equivalence classes in the Weyl groups of type B n which are suggested by the study of left cells in unequal parameter Iwahori-Hecke algebras. Both families are indexed by a non-negative integer r. It has been shown that the first family coincides with left cells corresponding to the equal parameter Iwahori-Hecke algebra when r=0; the equivalence classes in the second family agree with left cells corresponding to a special class of choices of unequal parameters when r is sufficiently large. Our main result shows that the two families of equivalence classes coincide, suggesting the structure of left cells for remaining choices of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra parameters. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.

- C. Bonnafé, M. Geck, L. Iancu, and T. Lam have conjectured a description of Kazhdan-Lusztig cells in unequal parameter Hecke algebras of type B which is based on domino tableaux of arbitrary rank. In the integer case, this generalizes the work of D. Garfinkle. We adapt her methods and construct a family of operators which generate the equivalence classes on pairs of arbitrary rank domino tableaux described in the above conjecture. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
A relation for domino robinson-schensted algorithms

Access: Open access
- We describe a map relating hyperoctahedral Robinson-Schensted algorithms on standard domino tableaux of unequal rank. Iteration of this map relates the algorithms defined by Garfinkle and Stanton-White and when restricted to involutions, this construction answers a question posed by van Leeuwen. The principal technique is derived from operations defined on standard domino tableaux by Garfinkle which must be extended to this more general setting. © Birkhäuser Verlag Basel/Switzerland 2009.
