Infinitesimal Hecke Algebras III (1012.4424v1)
Published 20 Dec 2010 in math.RT
Abstract: We define Lie subalgebras of the group algebra of a finite pseudo-reflection group that are involved in the definition of the Cherednik KZ-systems, and determine their structure. We provide applications for computing the Zariski closure of the image of generalized (pure) braid group B inside the representations of the corresponding Hecke algebras. We also get unitarizability results for the representations of B originating from Hecke algebras for suitable parameters, and relate our Lie algebras with the topological closure of B in these compact cases.
