The invited speakers of this session will be: 

Alain Lascoux (CNRS - Université Marne la Vallée, France)
Key polynomials (Demazure characters) for type A,B,C,D

Demazure characters (key polynomials) are linear bases of the ring of (Laurent) polynomials in x1,..., xn. They are defined as all possible images of dominant monomials under products of divided differences for type A,B,C,D. For example, for the type A, one has two families of operators πi and ∑i (i=1,..., n-1), which commute with the multiplication by symmetric functions in xi, xi+1, and are defined by the rules:
     πi sends 1 ---> 1 and xi+1 ---> 0, 
     ∑i sends 1 ---> 0 and xi+1 ---> -xi+1

It is remarkable that such simple tools suffice to generate interesting polynomials, which contain as a subfamily the Schur (symplectic-Schur, orthogonal-Schur) functions and verify similar properties: Cauchy kernels, adjoint bases, Pieri formulas. In type A, vexillary key polynomials and vexillary Schubert polynomials coincide. Still for this type, one can give a description of key polynomials in terms of Young tableaux satisfying flag conditions.
 
The talks relying on great part on the article of Amy Fu and al., Non symmetric Cauchy kernels for the classical Groups, JCTA 116 (2009) 903--917.

Arun Ram (University of Melbourne, Australia)
Lyndon words, MV polytopes and the Littelmann path model

Lecture 1Quantum groups and Lyndon words
This lecture will be a survey of the foundational work of Leclerc (following Rosso and Green) who introduced Lyndon words into the canonical basis theory and predicted the existence of the recently defined Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier graded quiver algebras.

Lecture 2Graded quiver algebras and their representations
This talk will be a survey of the recently defined Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier graded Hecke algebras, the role of quantum groups and Lyndon words in the combinatorial representation theory of these algebras.

Lecture 3:  Indexings of canonical bases:  Lyndon words, MV polytopes and the path model
This talk will provide a comparison of three natural indexings of canonical bases in quantum groups: indexings by products of Lyndon words,  indexing by MV polytopes, and the Littelmann path (alcove walk) indexings. The path model indexings can be viewed as generalizations of Young tableau indexings.
