An algebraic cell decomposition of the nonnegative part of a flag variety

Abstract

We study the nonnegative part B 0 of the flag variety of a reductive algebraic group G, as defined by Lusztig. Using positivity properties of the canonical basis it is shown that B 0 has an algebraic cell decomposition indexed by pairs w w' of the Weyl group. This result was conjectired by Lusztig in [Lu; Progress in Math 123].
