A depth-zero principal-series block whose Hecke algebra has a non-trivial two-cocycle

Abstract

Recently the authors have shown that every Hecke algebra associated to a type constructed by Kim and Yu is isomorphic to a Hecke algebra for a depth-zero type. An example in the literature has been suggested as a counterexample to this result. We show that the example is not a counterexample, and exhibit some of its interesting properties, e.g., we show that a principal series, depth-zero type can have a Hecke algebra with non-trivial two-cocyle, a phenomenon that many did not expect could occur.
