Abstract

Let WW be a finite Coxeter group and VV its reflection representation. The orbit space MW=V/W\mathcal{M}_W= V/W has the remarkable Saito flat metric defined as a Lie derivative of the WW-invariant bilinear form gg. We find determinant of the Saito metric restricted to an arbitrary Coxeter discriminant stratum in MW\mathcal{M}_W. It is shown that this determinant is proportional to a product of linear factors in the flat coordinates of the form gg on the stratum. We also find multiplicities of these factors in terms of Coxeter geometry of the stratum. This result may be interpreted as a generalisation to discriminant strata of the Coxeter factorisation formula for the Jacobian of the group WW. As another interpretation, we find determinant of the operator of multiplication by the Euler vector field in the natural Frobenius structure on the strata.
