Cocenters and representations of affine $0$-Hecke algebras

Abstract

In this paper, we study the relation between the cocenter $\overline{\tilde \ch_0}$ and the finite dimensional representations of an affine $0$-Hecke algebra $\tilde \ch_0$. As a consequence, we obtain a new criterion on the supersingular modules: a (virtual) module of $\tilde \ch_0$ is supersingular if and only if its character vanishes on the non-supersingular part of $\overline{\tilde \ch_0}$.
