We consider a cocompact discrete reflection group $W$ of a CAT(0) space $X$. Then $W$ becomes a Coxeter group. In this paper, we study an analogy between the Davis-Moussong complex $\Sigma(W,S)$ and the CAT(0) space $X$, and show several…

In this paper, we study Coxeter systems with two-dimensional Davis-Vinberg complexes. We show that for a Coxeter group $W$, if $(W,S)$ and $(W,S')$ are Coxeter systems with two-dimensional Davis-Vinberg complexes, then there exists…

Let $(W, S)$ be a Coxeter system of rank $n$ and let $p_{(W, S)}(t)$ be its growth function. It is known that $p_{(W, S)}(q^{-1}) < \infty$ holds for all $n \leq q \in \mathbb{N}$. In this paper we will show that this still holds for $q =…

In this short, elementary note we prove that if a faithful reflection representation of a Coxeter group preserves an orthant, then that Coxeter group is a product of symmetric groups acting on its natural permutation representation. We also…

A Coxeter system is called two-dimensional if its associated Davis complex is two-dimensional (equivalently, every spherical subgroup has rank less than or equal to 2). We prove that given a two-dimensional system (W,S) and any other system…

For right-angled Coxeter groups $W_{\Gamma}$, we obtain a condition on $\Gamma$ that is necessary and sufficient to ensure that $W_{\Gamma}$ is thick and thus not relatively hyperbolic. We show that Coxeter groups which are not thick all…

For W a finite Coxeter group, a formula is found for the size of W equivalence classes of subsets of a base. The proof is a case-by-case analysis using results and tables of Carter and Orlik/Solomon. As a corollary we obtain an alternating…

In any Coxeter group, the conjugates of elements in its Coxeter generating set are called reflections and the reflection length of an element is its length with respect to this expanded generating set. In this article we give a simple…

Let $(W,S)$ be a finite Coxeter group. Kazhdan and Lusztig introduced the concept of $W$-graphs and Gyoja proved that every irreducible representation of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra $H(W,S)$ can be realized as a $W$-graph. Gyoja defined an…

The permutation representation afforded by a Coxeter group W acting on the cosets of a standard parabolic subgroup inherits many nice properties from W such as a shellable Bruhat order and a flat deformation over Z[q] to a representation of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a connected, triangle-free, planar graph with at least five vertices that has no separating vertices or edges. If the graph $\Gamma$ is $\mathcal{CFS}$, we prove that the right-angled Coxeter group $G_\Gamma$ is virtually a…

In a recent paper we claimed that both the group algebra of a finite Coxeter group $W$ as well as the Orlik-Solomon algebra of $W$ can be decomposed into a sum of induced one-dimensional representations of centralizers, one for each…

We establish quasi-isometric rigidity for a class of right-angled Coxeter groups. Let $\Gamma_1,\Gamma_2$ be joins of finite generalized thick $m$-gons with $m\geq 3$. We show that the corresponding right-angled Coxeter groups are…

We introduce stable reflection length in Coxeter groups, as a way to study the asymptotic behaviour of reflection length. This creates connections to other well-studied stable length functions in groups, namely stable commutator length and…

Let (G,S) be a Coxeter group. We construct a continuation, to the open unit disc, of the unitary representations associated to the positive definite functions g -> r^l(g). (Here 0<r<1, and l denotes the length function with respect to the…

An element w of a Coxeter group W is said to be fully commutative, if any reduced expression of w can be obtained from any other by transposing adjacent pairs of generators. These elements were described in 1996 by Stembridge in the case of…

This paper studies the rigidity properties of the abstract commensurator of the outer automorphism group of a universal Coxeter group of rank $n$, which is the free product $W_n$ of $n$ copies of $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$. We prove that for…

For an arbitrary cocompact hyperbolic Coxeter group G with finite generator set S and complete growth function P(x)/Q(x), we provide a recursion formula for the coefficients of the denominator polynomial Q(x) which allows to determine…

In this paper we prove a series of matching theorems for two sets of Coxeter generators of a finitely generated Coxeter group that identify common features of the two sets of generators. As an application, we describe an algorithm for…

In this third part, we make the following hypothesis: representation $R=R(\alpha,\beta,\gamma ;l)$ of $W(p,q,r)$ is reducible and there exist a $G$-invariant non-nulle bilinear form where $G=Im R$. With those conditions, we know the…
