We use the author's combinatorial theory of full heaps (defined in math.QA/0605768) to categorify the action of a large class of Weyl groups on their root systems, and thus to give an elementary and uniform construction of a family of…

We discuss the classification of reflection subgroups of finite and affine Weyl groups from the point of view of their root systems. A short case free proof is given of the well known classification of the isomorphism classes of reflection…

Let $G$ be a complex connected reductive algebraic group. Let $G/B$ denote the flag variety of $G$. Let $H$ be an algebraic subgroup of $G$ such that the set ${\bf H}(G/B)$ of the $H$-orbits in $G/B$ is finite ; $H$ is said to be {\it…

Given a parabolic geometry on a smooth manifold $M$, we study a natural affine bundle $A \to M$, whose smooth sections can be identified with Weyl structures for the geometry. We show that the initial parabolic geometry defines a reductive…

The extended affine Weyl group of a root system is the semidirect product of the corresponding Weyl group by its coweight lattice. The stabilizer subgroup of the extended affine Weyl group with respect to the corresponding fundamental…

Generalized KdV hierarchies associated by Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction to grade one regular semisimple elements from non-equivalent Heisenberg subalgebras of a loop algebra $\G\otimes{\bf C}[\lambda,\lambda^{-1}]$ are studied. The graded…

First an `irregular Riemann-Hilbert correspondence' is established for meromorphic connections on principal G-bundles over a disc, where G is any connected complex reductive group. Secondly, in the case of poles of order two, isomonodromic…

We present a variant of the Theory of Lorentzian (i. e. with a hyperbolic generalized Cartan matrix) Kac-Moody algebras recently developed by V. A. Gritsenko and the author. It is closely related with and strongly uses results of R.…

Topological band theory has revolutionized our understanding of electronic structure of materials, in particular, a novel state - Weyl semimetal - has been predicted for systems with strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Here, a new class of…

Let g be a complex, simple Lie algebra and t a Cartan subalgebra of g. A new unitary, flat connection on t with values in any finite-dimensional g-module V and simple poles along the root hyperplanes was recently introduced by J. Millson…

The periodic system of chemical elements is represented within the framework of the weight diagram of the Lie algebra of the fourth rank of the rotation group of an eight-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space. The hydrogen realization of the…

By studying the action of the Weyl group of a simple Lie algebra on its root lattice, we construct torsion free subgroups of small and explicitly determined index in a large infinite class of Coxeter groups. One spin-off is the construction…

For any root system and any commutative ring we give a relatively simple presentation of a group related to its Steinberg group St. This includes the case of infinite root systems used in Kac-Moody theory, for which the Steinberg group was…

We review and further develop the theory of $E$-orbit functions. They are functions on the Euclidean space $E_n$ obtained from the multivariate exponential function by symmetrization by means of an even part $W_{e}$ of a Weyl group $W$,…

Given a reduced crystallographic root system with a fixed simple system, it is associated to a Weyl group $W$, parabolic subgroups $W_K$'s and a polytope $P$ which is the convex hull of a dominant weight. The quotient $P/W_K$ can be…

The author, and independently De Concini, conjectured that the monodromy of the Casimir connection of a simple Lie algebra g is described by the quantum Weyl group operators of the quantum group U_h(g). The aim of this paper, and of its…

We introduce the simple notion of a "crystallographic arrangement" and prove a one-to-one correspondence between these arrangements and the connected simply connected Cartan schemes for which the real roots are a finite root system (up to…

The aim of this paper is to establish a pseudo-differential Weyl calculus on graded nilpotent Lie groups $G$ which extends the celebrated Weyl calculus on $\mathbb{R}^n$. To reach this goal, we develop a symbolic calculus for a very general…
