Given a Coxeter group $W$ with Coxeter system $(W,S)$, where $S$ is finite. We provide a complete characterization of Boolean intervals in the weak order of $W$ uniformly for all Coxeter groups in terms of independent sets of the Coxeter…

We develop new and precise geometric descriptions of the conjugacy class $[x]$ and coconjugation set $\operatorname{C}(x,x') = \{ y \in \overline{W} \mid yxy^{-1} = x' \}$ for all elements $x,x'$ of any affine Coxeter group $\overline{W}$.…

We compute the limiting distributions of the lengths of the longest monotone subsequences of random (signed) involutions with or without conditions on the number of fixed points (and negated points) as the sizes of the involutions tend to…

We give a case-by-case description of the centralizers of involutions in finite Coxeter groups.

In recent papers we have refined a conjecture of Lehrer and Solomon expressing the characters of a finite Coxeter group $W$ afforded by the homogeneous components of its Orlik-Solomon algebra as sums of characters induced from linear…

An element of a Coxeter group $W$ is called fully commutative if any two of its reduced decompositions can be related by a series of transpositions of adjacent commuting generators. In the preprint "Fully commutative elements in finite and…

The polynomial of the major index ${\rm maj}_W (\sigma)$ over the subset $T$ of the Coxeter group $W$ is called the Mahonian polynomial over $T$, where ${\rm maj}_W (\sigma)$ is a Mahonian statistic of an element $\sigma \in T$, whereas the…

Let $W$ be a Coxeter group and let $M$ be the free $Z[v,v^{-1}]$-module with basis indexed by the involutions of $W$. We show how recent results of Elias and Williamson on Soergel bimodules can be used to give an alternative definition of…

While Euler characteristic X(G)=sum_x w(x) super counts simplices, Wu characteristics w_k(G) = sum_(x_1,x_2,...,x_k) w(x_1)...w(x_k) super counts simultaneously pairwise interacting k-tuples of simplices in a finite abstract simplicial…

Let (W,S) be a Coxeter system of finite rank (ie |S| is finite) and let A be the associated Coxeter (or Davis) complex. We study chains of pairwise parallel walls in A using Tits' bilinear form associated to the standard root system of…

Let $W_a$ be an affine Weyl group and $\eta:W_a\longrightarrow W_0$ be the natural projection to the corresponding finite Weyl group. We say that $w\in W_a$ has finite Coxeter part if $\eta(w)$ is conjugate to a Coxeter element of $W_0$.…

Let $W$ be a Coxeter group of type $\widetilde{A}_{n-1}$. We show that the leading coefficient, $\mu(x, w)$, of the Kazhdan--Lusztig polynomial $P_{x, w}$ is always equal to 0 or 1 if $x$ is fully commutative (and $w$ is arbitrary).

We find a simple product formula for the characteristic polynomial of the permutations with a fixed descent set under the weak order. As a corollary we obtain a simple product formula for the characteristic polynomial of alternating…

We generalize B. Kostant's construction of generating functions to the case of multiply-laced diagrams and we prove for this case W. Ebeling's theorem which connects the Poincare series [P_G(t)]_0 and the Coxeter transformations. According…

We prove that a finite complex reflection group has a generalized involution model, as defined by Bump and Ginzburg, if and only if each of its irreducible factors is either $G(r,p,n)$ with $\gcd(p,n)=1$; $G(r,p,2)$ with $r/p$ odd; or…

Coxeter polynomials are important homological invariants that are defined for a large class of finite-dimensional algebras. It is of particular interest to develop methods to compute these polynomials. We define the notion of insertion of a…
