On Kottwitz's Conjecture for Twisted Involutions
Journal of Lie theory, Tome 25 (2015) no. 2, pp. 395-429
Motivated by problems on nilpotent orbital integrals for real Lie groups, Kottwitz (2000) formulated a conjecture concerning the relationship between Kazhdan-Lusztig cells of a finite Coxeter group $W$ and its conjugacy classes of $\diamond$-twisted involutions, where $\diamond$ is an involutory graph automorphism of $W$. In this paper, we study this relationship in type $D_n$ and all cases where $\diamond$ is non-trivial. Combined with work of Kottwitz himself, Casselmann, Marberg, and joint work of Bonnaf\'e, Halls and the author, this completes the proof of Kottwitz's Conjecture for all $W,\,\diamond$.
