Some Non-Trivial Kazhdan-Lusztig Coefficients of an Affine Weyl Group of Type $\tilde A_n$

Abstract

In this paper we show that the leading coefficient $\mu(y,w)$ of some Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials $P_{y,w}$ with $y,w$ in an affine Weyl group of type $\tilde A_n $ is $n+2$. This fact has some consequences on the dimension of first extension groups of finite groups of Lie type with irreducible coefficients.
