Overview
- Offers the first systematic and unified treatment of representations of Hecke algebras at roots of unity
- Written by leading experts in the field
- Uses a number of concrete examples to clearly explain theoretical results
- Uses sophisticated mathematical results from Representation Theory and Combinatorics to describe state of the art developments in Hecke algebra theory
- Describes the connections between Representation theory of quantum affine algebras and Representation Theory of Hecke algebras
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“This book unifies and summaries some of the work, mostly done during the last ten years, on representations of Iwahori-Hecke algebras of finite Coxeter groups. … The book is very nicely written, striking the ideal balance between providing a uniform treatment of the finite Coxeter groups on the one hand, and presenting type-specific material on the other. … In summary, this book is excellent. It will serve primarily as a reference for experts, but would also work well for self-study for a graduate student.” (Matthew Fayers, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1232, 2012)
