In any Coxeter group, the set of elements whose principal order ideals are boolean forms a simplicial poset under the Bruhat order. This simplicial poset defines a cell complex, called the boolean complex. In this paper it is shown that,…
The rich theory of Coxeter groups is used to provide an algebraic construction of finite volume hyperbolic n-manifolds. Combinatorial properties of finite images of these groups can be used to compute the volumes of the resulting manifolds.…
We study the cohomology ring of the Bott--Samelson variety. We compute an explicit presentation of this ring via Soergel's result, which implies that it is a purely combinatorial invariant. We use the presentation to introduce the…
The discrete group generated by reflections of the sphere, or Euclidean space, or hyperbolic space are said to be Coxeter groups of, respectively, spherical, or Euclidean, or hyperbolic type. The hyperbolic Coxeter groups are said to be…
We produce an explicit recursive formula which computes the idempotent projecting to any indecomposable Soergel bimodule for a universal Coxeter system. This gives the exact set of primes for which the positive characteristic analogue of…
We introduce Coxeter-sortable elements of a Coxeter group W. For finite W, we give bijective proofs that Coxeter-sortable elements are equinumerous with clusters and with noncrossing partitions. We characterize Coxeter-sortable elements in…
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).
To any finite graph $X$ (viewed as a topological space) we assosiate some explicit compact metric space ${\cal X}^r(X)$ which we call {\it the reflection tree of graphs $X$}. This space is of topological dimension $\le1$ and its connected…
Using the geometry of the associated Calogero-Moser space, R. Rouquier and the author have attached to any finite complex reflection group $W$ several notions (Calogero-Moser left, right or two-sided cells, Calogero-Moser cellular…
A class of topological spaces is topologically rigid if any two spaces with the same fundamental group are also homeomorphic. Topological rigidity, in addition to its intrinsic interest, has been useful for solving abstract commensurability…
We give an interpretation of the map $\pi^c$ defined by Reading, which is a map from the elements of a Coxeter group to the $c$-sortable elements, in terms of the representation theory of preprojective algebras. Moreover, we study a close…
In this paper, we study the twist-conjecture for Coxeter systems and rigidity of Coxeter systems up to finite twists. For Coxeter systems $(W,R)$ and $(W,S)$, under the untangle-condition for conjugate subsets, we investigate separations…
Shephard groups are common extensions of Artin and Coxeter groups. They appear, for example, in algebraic study of manifolds. An infinite family of Shephard groups which are not Artin or Coxeter groups is considered. Using techniques form…
Let $W$ be a finite Coxeter group. We classify the reflection subgroups of $W$ up to conjugacy and give necessary and sufficient conditions for the map that assigns to a reflection subgroup $R$ of $W$ the conjugacy class of its Coxeter…
We introduce and study certain topological spaces associated with connected rooted graphs. These spaces reflect combinatorial and order theoretic properties of the underlying graph and relate in the case of hyperbolic graphs to Gromov's…
We provide geometric conditions on a pair of hyperplanes of a CAT(0) cube complex that imply divergence bounds for the cube complex. As an application, we classify all right-angled Coxeter groups with quadratic divergence and show…
Let X be a space of constant curvature and P be a convex polyhedron in X. A Coxeter decomposition of the polyhedron P is a decomposition of P into finitely many Coxeter polyhedra, such that any two polyhedra having a common facet are…
In the spirit of peripheral subgroups in relatively hyperbolic groups, we exhibit a simple class of quasi-isometrically rigid subgroups in graph products of finite groups, which we call eccentric subgroups. As an application, we prove that,…
Differential-geometric structures on the space of orbits of a finite Coxeter group, determined by Groth\'endieck residues, are calculated. This gives a construction of a 2D topological field theory for an arbitrary Coxeter group.
We study Soergel modules for arbitrary Coxeter groups. For infinite Coxeter groups, we show that the homomorphisms between Soergel modules are in general more than those coming from morphisms of Soergel bimodules. This result provides a…
