We define a map F with domain a certain subset of the set of light leaves (certain morphisms between Soergel bimodules introduced by the author in an earlier paper) and range the set of prime numbers. Using results of Soergel we prove the following property of F : if the image p = F ( l ) of some light leaf l under F is bigger than the Coxeter number of the corresponding Weyl group, then there is a counterexample to Lusztig's conjecture in characteristic p . We also introduce the “double leaves basis” which is an improvement of the light leaves basis that has already found interesting applications. In particular it forms a cellular basis of Soergel bimodules that allows us to produce an algorithm to find “the bad primes” for Lusztig's conjecture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: In a recent paper we proved a special case of a variant of Pink's Conjecture for a variety inside a semiabelian scheme: namely for any curve inside any scheme isogenous to a fibred product of two isogenous elliptic schemes. Here we go ahead with the programme of settling the conjecture for general abelian surface schemes by completing the proof for all non-simple surfaces. This involves some entirely new and crucial issues. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
