How statement and proof provenance work
The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.
- Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
- AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
- AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.
These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.
Weighted cell quotients are well-defined modules and bimodules
Statement
For every Coxeter system and weight function of The unequal-parameter Coxeter Hecke algebra, the spans and attached to a left cell are left ideals; the right-cell spans are right ideals; and the two-sided-cell spans are two-sided ideals. Therefore the quotients defined in Unequal-parameter left, right, and two-sided cells and cell quotients are left modules, right modules, or bimodules, respectively. Each quotient has an -basis consisting exactly of the images of the KL basis elements indexed by its cell. No further cell property, semisimplicity, or irreducible-module classification is asserted.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The weighted Hecke algebra , its KL basis, the coefficient preorders, and a cell .
Unequal-parameter left, right, and two-sided cells and cell quotients: means occurs with nonzero coefficient in for some ; is its finite-chain closure; the left cell quotient is the span of all with , modulo the span with . The right and two-sided definitions use right or either kind of step.
Existence and uniqueness of the ordered-group unequal-parameter Kazhdan–Lusztig basis: is an -basis; each product and has a finite basis expansion; and for a scalar .
Proof
Given: The data in the Statement.
The left spans are left ideals. If occurs in , then , hence . Therefore, if , every basis term in also has index , proving closure of under left multiplication by each . If , each such is also outside : otherwise some satisfies , forcing , a contradiction. Thus is also closed under left multiplication by each . Since , the and scalars generate , so both spans are left ideals.
The right spans are right ideals. If occurs in , then , hence . Thus right multiplication by each preserves the right numerator. If is in the right denominator and , choose with ; since and lie in the same cell, , while . Transitivity would make equivalent to , contradicting . So right multiplication also preserves the right denominator. The generators then show that these spans are right ideals of .
The two-sided spans are two-sided ideals. A two-sided preorder step is a left step or a right step. Applying the closure arguments of steps 1.1 and 1.2 to each type of step shows that left and right multiplication by every , and hence by every , preserves both and . They are therefore two-sided ideals.
Quotient bases and actions. The KL basis is an -basis by [F2]. For the corresponding preorder, every belongs to the numerator because ; every numerator index outside belongs to the denominator by its definition. Thus the numerator basis indices are the disjoint union of the cell and the denominator indices, so their quotient has basis exactly the images of with . The induced left, right, or bimodule action is well defined because the numerator and denominator are ideals of the required sidedness, as proved in steps 1.1, 1.2, and 2.1.
