Abstract

To each finite Coxeter system (W,S) and to each weight function L, Lusztig has defined the notions of constructible characters and of Lusztig families of W, using the so-called J-induction. Whenever L is constant, and using a general argument, Lusztig has shown that all Lusztig family contains a unique character with minimal b-invariant, and that every constructible character contains an irreducible constituent with minimal b-invariant. We show in this paper that this can be generalized to the case where L is not constant: our proof is by a case-by-case analysis.
