This paper classifies the simple modules of the cyclotomic Hecke algebras of type
G(
r,1,
n) and the affine Hecke algebras of type
A in arbitrary characteristic. We do this by first showing that the simple modules of the cyclotomic Hecke algebras are indexed
by the set of “Kleshchev multipartitions”.
