Affine quasi-heredity of affine Schur algebras
  In this paper we prove that the affine Schur algebra $\whS(n,r)$ is affine quasi-hereditary. This result is then applied to show that $\whS(n,r)$ has finite global dimension and its centralizer subquotient algebras are Laurent polynomial algebras. We also use the result to give a parameter set of simple $\whS(n,r)$-modules and identify this parameter set with that given in \cite{DDF}.
