In this paper, we consider representations of Coxeter groups over a path algebra, R, defined by Dyer. We answer a question posed by Dyer about the multiplicative properties of R, showing that it is "almost a domain". We also show that R cam…

Let $\mathrm{k}_{0}$ be a field and $W$ a finite orthogonal reflection group over $\mathrm{k}_{0}$. We prove Serre's splitting principle for cohomological invariants of $W$ with values in Rost's cycle modules (over $\mathrm{k}_{0}$) if the…

We determine a fundamental domain for the diagonal action of a finite Coxeter group $W$ on $V^{\oplus n}$, where $V$ is the reflection representation. This is used to give a stratification of $V^{\oplus n}$, which is respected by the group…

Chapoton has observed a simple product formula for the number of reflections in a finite Coxeter group that have full support. We give a uniform proof of his formula for Weyl groups. We furthermore refine his formula by the length of the…

In this article, given two finite simplicial graphs $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$, we state and prove a complete description of the possible morphisms $C(\Gamma_1) \to C(\Gamma_2)$ between the right-angled Coxeter groups $C(\Gamma_1)$ and…

We review the properties of the finite Coxeter groups which are most useful for applications to cohomological invariants, namely their classes of involutions and their "cubes" (abelian subgroups generated by reflections).

This is the first of a series of papers in which we initiate and develop the theory of reflection monoids, motivated by the theory of reflection groups. The main results identify a number of important inverse semigroups as reflection…

Let $\mathcal{W}$ be a complete local commutative Noetherian ring with residue field $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. We study the inverse problem for the versal deformation rings $R_{\mathcal{W}}(\Gamma,V)$ relative to $\mathcal{W}$ of…

In a finite Coxeter group $W$ and with two given conjugacy classes of parabolic subgroups $[X]$ and $[Y]$, we count those parabolic subgroups of $W$ in $[Y]$ that are full support, while simultaneously being simple extensions (i.e.,…

We study deformation of algebras with coaction symmetry of reduced algebra of discrete groups, where the deformation parameter is given continuous family of group $2$-cocycles. When the group satisfies the Baum-Connes conjecture with…

This paper dates back to 1999 but was never published. The major part of it was included in the joint paper [Digne-Gomi, Presentation of pure braid groups, J. Knot Theory and its Ramifications 10 (2001) 609--623]. Sections 2 and 6 were not…

Let (G,S) be a Coxeter group. We construct a continuation, to the open unit disc, of the unitary representations associated to the positive definite functions g -> r^l(g). (Here 0<r<1, and l denotes the length function with respect to the…

For a finite Coxeter group $W$ and $w$ an element of $W$ the `excess' of $w$ is defined to be $e(w) = \min\{\ell(x) + \ell(y) - \ell(w) \; | \; w=xy, \; x^2 = y^2 = 1\}$ where $\ell$ is the length function on $W$. Here we investigate the…

Let $T$ be an infinite volume Coxeter tetrahedron in three dimensional real hyperbolic space ${\bf H}^{3}_{\mathbb R}$ with two opposite right-angles and the other angles are all zeros. Let $G$ be the Coxeter group of $T$, so…

We classify all quotients $W/W_J$ up to isomorphism in Bruhat order, with $(W,S)$ a Coxeter system and $W_J$ a parabolic subgroup of $W$. In particular, the non-trivial isomorphisms fall into a small number of cases which are highly…

When the standard representation of a crystallographic Coxeter group $\Gamma$ is reduced modulo an odd prime $p$, a finite representation in some orthogonal space over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ is obtained. If $\Gamma$ has a string diagram, the latter…

For W a finite (2-)reflection group and B its (generalized) braid group, we determine the Zariski closure of the image of B inside the corresponding Iwahori-Hecke algebra. The Lie algebra of this closure is reductive and generated in the…

We study the (complex) Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}_S(\mathbf{q})$ of a finite simply-laced Coxeter system $(W,S)$ with independent parameters $\mathbf{q} \in \left( \mathbb{C} \setminus\{\text{roots of unity}\} \right)^S$. We construct its…

In this article, we discuss the notion of partition of elements in an arbitrary Coxeter system $(W,S)$: a partition of an element $w$ is a subset $\mathcal P\subseteq W$ such that the left inversion set of $w$ is the disjoint union of the…

We show that in the category of groups, every singly-generated class which is closed under isomorphisms, direct limits and extensions is also singly-generated under isomorphisms and direct limits, and in particular is co-reflective. We also…
