The strong symmetric genus of a finite group G is the smallest genus of a closed orientable topological surface on which G acts faithfully as a group of orientation preserving automorphisms. In this paper we complete the calculation of the…
The weak order is a classical poset structure on a Coxeter group; it is a lattice when the group is finite but merely a meet-semilattice when the group is infinite. Motivated by problems in Kazhdan--Lusztig theory, Matthew Dyer introduced…
We discuss the symmetries of the Lagrangian of the leptonic sector. We consider the case when this symmetry group is a Coxeter group. The number of elements of the PMNS matrix predicted by this group structure would depend on the number of…
For each positive integer $k$ we present an example of Coxeter system $(G_k,S_k)$ such that $G_k$ is a word-hyperbolic Coxeter group, for any two generating reflections $s,t\in S_k$ the product $st$ has finite order, and the Coxeter graph…
Here, for $W$ the Coxeter group $\mathrm{D}_n$ where $n > 4$, it is proved that the maximal rank of an abstract regular polytope for $W$ is $n - 1$ if $n$ is even and $n$ if $n$ is odd. Further it is shown that $W$ has abstract regular…
We show that graph products of finite abelian groups are elementarily equivalent if and only if they are $\exists\forall$-equivalent if and only if they are isomorphic. In particular, two right-angled Coxeter groups are elementarily…
This paper provides a bridge between two active areas of research, the spectrum (set of element orders) and the power graph of a finite group. The order sequence of a finite group $G$ is the list of orders of elements of the group, arranged…
We study the minimal length elements in some double cosets of Coxeter groups and use them to study Lusztig's $G$-stable pieces and the generalization of $G$-stable pieces introduced by Lu and Yakimov. We also use them to study the minimal…
Let $G$ be a group and let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of subgroups of $G$ closed under conjugation. For a positive integer $n$, let $C_n$ denote a cyclic group of order $n$. We show that if there exists an integer $n$ such that every group…
We study a family of infinite-type Coxeter groups defined by the avoidance of certain rank 3 parabolic subgroups. For this family, rationally smooth elements can be detected by looking at only a few coefficients of the Poincar\'{e}…
Let $G$ be a subgroup of the symmetric group $S_n$. If the proportion of fixed-point-free elements in $G$ (or a coset) equals the proportion of fixed-point-free elements in $S_n$, then $G=S_n$. The analogue for $A_n$ holds if $n \ge 7$. We…
A Coxeter group admits infinite-dimensional irreducible complex representations if and only if it is not finite or affine. In this paper, we provide a construction of some of those representations for certain Coxeter groups using some…
We study global fixed points for actions of Coxeter groups on nonpositively curved singular spaces. In particular, we consider property FA_n, an analogue of Serre's property FA for actions on CAT(0) complexes. Property FA_n has implications…
This paper gives a new, simplified presentation of the classical pure braid group. The generators are given by the squares of the longest elements over connected subgraphs, and we prove that the only relations are either commutators or…
We prove that for any infinite right-angled Coxeter or Artin group, its spherical and geodesic growth rates (with respect to the standard generating set) either take values in the set of Perron numbers, or equal $1$. Also, we compute the…
A right-angled Coxeter group is a group with a given set of generators of order two, subject only to the relations that certain pairs of the generators commute. Various papers have shown how homological properties of the Coxeter group are…
In this article, we give a short algebraic proof that all closed intervals in a $\gamma$-Cambrian semilattice $\mathcal{C}_{\gamma}$ are trim for any Coxeter group $W$ and any Coxeter element $\gamma\in W$. This means that if such an…
We show that the Coxeter-sortable elements in a finite Coxeter group W are the minimal congruence-class representatives of a lattice congruence of the weak order on W. We identify this congruence as the Cambrian congruence on W, so that the…
We study a conjecture by Deaconescu on the solubility of finite groups with claims that if more than half of the elements in a finite group has the same order $k$, then the group is soluble. We show that the original conjecture fails by…
If S and S' are two finite sets of Coxeter generators for a right-angled Coxeter group W, then the Coxeter systems (W,S) and (W,S') are equivalent.
