Graph products of cyclic groups and Coxeter groups are two families of groups that are defined by labeled graphs. The family of Dyer groups contains these both families and gives us a framework to study these groups in a unified way. This…
Let $X$ be a CAT(0) cubical complex. The growth series of $X$ at $x$ is $G_{x}(t)=\sum_{y \in Vert(X)} t^{d(x,y)}$, where $d(x,y)$ denotes $\ell_{1}$-distance between $x$ and $y$. If $X$ is cocompact, then $G_{x}$ is a rational function of…
A Coxeter group acts properly and cocompactly by isometries on the Davis complex for the group; we call the quotient of the Davis complex under this action the Davis orbicomplex for the group. We prove the set of finite covers of the Davis…
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…
This paper examines a systematic method to construct a pair of (inter-related) root systems for arbitrary Coxeter groups from a class of non-standard geometric representations. This method can be employed to construct generalizations of…
A class of topological spaces is topologically rigid if any two spaces with the same fundamental group are also homeomorphic. Topological rigidity, in addition to its intrinsic interest, has been useful for solving abstract commensurability…
We define a large class of abstract Coxeter groups, that we call $\infty$--spanned, and for which the word growth rate and the geodesic growth rate appear to be Perron numbers. This class contains a fair amount of Coxeter groups acting on…
In this paper, we study growth rates of Coxeter systems with Davis complexes of dimension at most $2$. We show that if the Euler characteristic $\chi$ of the nerve of a Coxeter system is vanishing (resp. positive), then its growth rate is a…
Growth functions of Coxeter groups and the Poincare series of Kleinian and Fuchsian singularities are $2$-tangle $q$-fractions.
We give explicit formulas for the geodesic growth series of a Right Angled Coxeter Group (RACG) based on a link-regular graph that is 4-clique free, i.e. without tetrahedrons
An elementary approach to the construction of Coxeter group representations is presented.
Let W be an irreducible finitely generated Coxeter group. The geometric representation of W in GL(V) provides a discrete embedding in the orthogonal group of the Tits form (the associated bilinear form of the Coxeter group). If the Tits…
We attach with every finite, involutive, nondegenerate set-theoretic solution of the Yang--Baxter equation a finite group that plays for the associated structure group the role that a finite Coxeter group plays for the associated…
An axiomatic approach to the representation theory of Coxeter groups and their Hecke algebras was presented in [1]. Combinatorial aspects of this construction are studied in this paper. In particular, the symmetric group case is…
We use probabilistic methods to prove that many Coxeter groups are incoherent. In particular, this holds for Coxeter groups of uniform exponent > 2 with sufficiently many generators.
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…
Coxeter groups are a special class of groups generated by involutions. They play important roles in the various areas of mathematics. This survey particularly focuses on how one uses Coxeter groups to construct interesting examples of…
The objective of this paper is to detect which combinatorial properties of a regular graph can completely determine the geodesic growth of the right-angled Coxeter or Artin group this graph defines, and to provide the first examples of…
We define in an axiomatic fashion a \emph{Coxeter datum} for an arbitrary Coxeter group $W$. This Coxeter datum will specify a pair of reflection representations of $W$ in two vector spaces linked only by a bilinear paring without any…
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…
