Funded Activity Summary

New directions in Hecke algebras. To goal of this project is to make fundamental advances in representation theory, a powerful branch of mathematics focused on taking abstract mathematical structures and ``representing'' them in a concrete and useful way. In particular we aim to prove a series of long standing and influential conjectures by George Lusztig concerning the representation theory of Hecke algebras, objects which are ubiquitous in modern algebra. Our work will lead to new discoveries, a fundamentally deeper understanding of Kazhdan-Lusztig theory, and will drive future research. Benefits include enhanced international collaboration and increasing capacity in pure mathematics, especially in the cutting-edge area of representation theory.
