A Coxeter group W is called reflection independent if its reflections are uniquely determined by W only, independently on the choice of the generating set. We give a new sufficient condition for the reflection independence, and examine this…

In this article we give a simple, almost uniform proof that the lattice of noncrossing partitions associated with a well-generated complex reflection group is lexicographically shellable. So far a uniform proof is available only for Coxeter…

We extend a result of Lewis and Reiner from finite Coxeter groups to all Coxeter groups by showing that two reflection factorizations of a Coxeter element lie in the same Hurwitz orbit if and only if they share the same multiset of…

For a Coxeter group (W,S), a permutation of the set S is called a Coxeter word and the group element represented by the product is called a Coxeter element. Moving the first letter to the end of the word is called a rotation and two Coxeter…

This paper gives a definitive solution to the problem of describing conjugacy classes in arbitrary Coxeter groups in terms of cyclic shifts. Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system. A cyclic shift of an element $w\in W$ is a conjugate of $w$ of the…

For a finite real reflection group $W$ with Coxeter element $\gamma$ we give a uniform proof that the closed interval, $[I, \gamma]$ forms a lattice in the partial order on $W$ induced by reflection length. The proof involves the…

Given a reflection $r$ in a Coxeter group $W$ (possibly of infinite rank), we consider the subgroup of $W$ generated by the reflections in $W$ having (-1)-eigenvectors orthogonal to the (-1)-eigenvector of $r$. In this paper, we determine…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system and $\Gamma$ be a group of automorphisms of $W$ such that $\gamma(S)=S$ for all $\gamma \in \Gamma$. Then it is known that the group of fixed points $W^\Gamma$ is again a Coxeter group with a canonically…

We lay the foundations of the first-order model theory of Coxeter groups. Firstly, with the exception of the $2$-spherical non-affine case (which we leave open), we characterize the superstable Coxeter groups of finite rank, which we show…

Suppose that W is a finite, unitary, reflection group acting on the complex vector space V and X is a subspace of V. Define N to be the setwise stabilizer of X in W, Z to be the pointwise stabilizer, and C=N/Z. Then restriction defines a…

Given a finite irreducible Coxeter group $W$ with a fixed Coxeter element $c$, we define the Coxeter pop-tsack torsing operator $\mathsf{Pop}_T:W\to W$ by $\mathsf{Pop}_T(w)=w\cdot\pi_T(w)^{-1}$, where $\pi_T(w)$ is the join in the…

Each Coxeter element c of a Coxeter group W defines a subset of W called the c-sortable elements. The choice of a Coxeter element of W is equivalent to the choice of an acyclic orientation of the Coxeter diagram of W. In this paper, we…

For any Coxeter group W, we define a filtration of H^*(W;ZW) by W-submodules and then compute the associated graded terms. More generally, if U is a CW complex on which W acts as a reflection group we compute the associated graded terms for…

Let W be an arbitrary Coxeter group. If two elements have expressions that are cyclic shifts of each other (as words), then they are conjugate (as group elements) in W. We say that w is "cyclically fully commutative" (CFC) if every cyclic…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system and let $s \in S$. We call $s$ a right-angled generator of $(W,S)$ if $st = ts$ or $st$ has infinite order for each $t \in S$. We call $s$ an intrinsic reflection of $W$ if $s \in R^W$ for all Coxeter…
