Isometry classes of generalized associahedra
Abstract
Let be a finite Coxeter system acting by reflections on an -Euclidean space with simple roots of the same length and fundamental weights . We set , , and for we set . The permutahedron is the convex hull of the set . Given a Coxeter element , we have defined in a previous work a generalized associahedron whose normal fan is the corresponding -Cambrian fan defined by N. Reading. By construction, is obtained from by removing some halfspaces according to a rule prescribed by . In this work, we classify the isometry classes of these realizations. More precisely, for an irreducible finite Coxeter system and two Coxeter elements in , we have that and are isometric if and only if or for an automorphism of the Coxeter graph of such that for all . As a byproduct, we classify the isometric Cambrian fans of .
