Hecke algebras of finite type are cellular
Let \cH be the one-parameter Hecke algebra associated to a finite Weyl
group , defined over a ground ring in which ``bad'' primes for are
invertible. Using deep properties of the Kazhdan--Lusztig basis of \cH and
Lusztig's \ba-function, we show that \cH has a natural cellular structure
in the sense of Graham and Lehrer. Thus, we obtain a general theory of ``Specht
modules'' for Hecke algebras of finite type. Previously, a general cellular
structure was only known to exist in types and .Comment: 14 pages; added reference
