Singularities, character formulas, and a \(q\)-analog of weight multiplicities. (English) Zbl 0561.22013

Astérisque 101-102, 208-229 (1983).
The author gives an interpretation for the multiplicities of weights in a finite dimensional representations of a simple complex Lie algebra \({\mathfrak g}\) in terms of intersection cohomologies of Schubert varieties of the corresponding adjoint Lie group \(G\). The method, used in the paper, is the study of the Hecke algebra of the corresponding (“affine”) Coxeter group.
