Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials with unequal parameters

The program contains a full implementation of the computation of Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials with unequal parameters (see [1] or [2]), and, for finite groups, of the corresponding cells.

The computation is considerably slower and more memory-intensive then the equal-parameter case; for instance, for the cell compuations, the case of B6 is already fairly hard, and B7 seems to be at the edge of the possibilities of present-day workstations. The case of F4, on the other hand, doesn't pose any problems.
