Categorification of the braid groups

We construct a categorification of the braid groups associated with Coxeter groups inside the homotopy category of Soergel's bimodules. Classical actions of braid groups on triangulated categories should come from an action of this monoidal category. We construct representations of this monoidal category on category O of a complex semi-simple Lie algebra and on constructible sheaves over flag varieties. We also consider general constructions of self-equivalences as reflections around another category.

Dimensions of triangulated categories

We define a dimension for a triangulated category. We prove a representabilityTheorem for a certain class of functors on finite dimensional triangulatedcategories. We study the dimension of the boundedderived category of an algebra or a scheme and we show in particularthat the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves over avariety has a finite dimension. For a self-injective algebra, a lowerbound for Auslander's representation dimension is given by the dimensionof the stable category. We use this to compute the representationdimension of exterior algebras. This provides the first known examplesof representation dimension >3. We deduce that theLoewy length of the group algebra over F_2 of a finite group is strictly bounded below by2-rank of the group (a conjecture of Benson).

Familles de caracteres de groupes de reflexions complexes

Nous etudions certains types de blocs d'algebres de Hecke associees aux groupes de reflexions complexes qui generalisent les familles de caracteres definies par Lusztig pour les groupes de Weyl. Nous determinons ces blocs pour les groupes de reflexions spetsiaux et nous etablissons un theoreme de compatibilite entre familles et d-series de Harish-Chandra. ----- We study certain types of blocks of Hecke Algebras associated to complex reflection groups which generalize the families of characters defined by Lusztig for Weyl groups. We determine these blocks for the special reflection groups and we establish a compatibility theorem between families and d-series of Harish-Chandra.

On the category O for rational Cherednik algebras

We study the category O of representations of the rational Cherednik algebra A attached to a complex reflection group W. We construct an exact functor, called Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov functor, from O to the category of H-modules, where H is the (finite) Iwahori-Hecke algebra associated to W. We prove that the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov functor induces an equivalence between O/O_tor, the quotient of O by the subcategory of A-modules supported on the discriminant and the category of finite-dimensional H-modules. The standard A-modules go, under this equivalence, to certain modules arising in Kazhdan-Lusztig theory of ``cells'', provided W is a Weyl group and the Hecke algebra H has equal parameters. We prove that the category O is equivalent to the module category over a finite dimensional algebra, a generalized "q-Schur algebra" associated to W.

Categories derivees et varietes de Deligne-Lusztig

We prove a conjecture of Broue about the Jordan decomposition of blocks of finite reductive groups. We show that a block of a finite connected reductive group, in non-describing characteristic, is Morita-equivalent to a quasi-isolated block of a Levi subgroup. This involves showing that some local system over a Deligne-Lusztig variety has its mod l cohomology concentrated in one degree. We reduce this question to a question about tamely ramified local systems by proving that the category of perfect complexes for the group is generated by the images of the Deligne-Lusztig functors. Then, we describe the ramification at infinity of local systems associated to characters of tori.

Quotients et extensions de groupes de reflexions complexes

We give a geometric description of a certain class of epimorphisms between complex reflection groups. We classify these epimorphisms, which can be interpreted as ``morphisms'' between the diagrams symbolizing standard presentations by generators and relations for complex reflection groups and their braid groups.
