We prove that two reflection factorizations of a parabolic quasi-Coxeter element in a finite Coxeter group belong to the same Hurwitz orbit if and only if they generate the same subgroup and have the same multiset of conjugacy classes. As a…

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…

We show that in the complex reflection group $G_6$, reflection factorizations of a Coxeter element that have the same length and multiset of conjugacy classes are in the same Hurwitz orbit. This confirms one case of a conjecture of Lewis…

We prove that two reflection factorizations of a given element in an exceptional rank-2 complex reflection group of tetrahedral type are Hurwitz-equivalent if and only if they generate the same subgroup and have the same multiset of…

We consider the Hurwitz action on quasipositive factorizations of a 3-braid. In a previous paper, for any given 3-braid we described a certain finite set which contains at least one representative of each orbit. Here we give an algorithm to…

In a finite real reflection group, two factorizations of a Coxeter element into an arbitrary number of reflections are shown to lie in the same orbit under the Hurwitz action if and only if they use the same multiset of conjugacy classes.…

We enumerate Hurwitz orbits of shortest reflection factorizations of an arbitrary element in the infinite family $G(m, p, n)$ of complex reflection groups. As a consequence, we characterize the elements for which the action is transitive…

We consider the Hurwitz action on quasipositive factorizations of 3-braids. We prove that every orbit contains an element of a special form. This fact provides an algorithm of finding representatives of every orbit for a given braid. We…

The classical Hurwitz numbers count the fixed-length transitive transposition factorizations of a permutation, with a remarkable product formula for the case of minimum length (genus $0$). We study the analogue of these numbers for…

We prove that the Hurwitz action on reflection factorizations of Coxeter elements is transitive up to certain natural constraints in the complex reflection groups G4 and G5. This affirms a more general conjecture by Lewis and Reiner in…

There are natural actions of the braid groups on the products of the braid groups, called the Hurwitz action. We first study the roots of centralizers in the braid groups. By using the structure of the roots, we provide a criterion for the…

We investigate the so-called dual Matsumoto property or Hurwitz action in finite, affine and arbitrary Coxeter groups. In particular, we want to investigate how to reduce reflection factorizations and how two reflection factorizations of…

We obtain a complete characterization of all orbits of a quadratic Collatz-type recursion called the divide-or-choose-2 rule. Each orbit either ends in a cycle whose period depends on the initial value or it goes to infinity. We specify…

We give new classes of examples of orbits of the diagonal group in the space of unit volume lattices in R^d for d > 2 with nice (homogeneous) orbit closures, as well as examples of orbits with explicitly computable but irregular orbit…

The strong isomorphism classes of extensions of finite groups are parametrized by orbits of a prescribed action on the second cohomology group. We study these orbits in the case of extensions of a finite abelian $p$-group by a cyclic factor…

In this paper we prove certain Hurwitz equivalence properties in $B_n$. Our main result is that every two Artin's factorizations of $\Delta_n ^2$ of the form $H_{i_1} ... H_{i_{n(n-1)}}, \quad F_{j_1} ... F_{j_{n(n-1)}}$ (with $i_k, j_k \in…

For a positively presented group G, we provide a criterion for two tuples of positive group generators of G to be Hurwitz equivalent or Hurwitz-conjugation equivalent. We also present an algorithmic approach to solve the Hurwitz equivalence…

In this paper we prove certain Hurwitz equivalence properties in the braid group. Our main result is that every two factorizations of $\Delta_n ^2$ where the elements of the factorization are semi-frame are Hurwitz equivalent. The results…

We study the Hurwitz action of the classical braid group on factorisations of a Coxeter element c in a well-generated complex reflection group W. It is well-known that the Hurwitz action is transitive on the set of reduced decompositions of…

We show that if a tuple of Euclidean reflections has a finite orbit under the Hurwitz action of the Artin braid group, then the group generated by these reflections is finite. Humphries has published a similar statement but his proof is…
