We lay the foundations of the first-order model theory of Coxeter groups. Firstly, with the exception of the $2$-spherical non-affine case (which we leave open), we characterize the superstable Coxeter groups of finite rank, which we show…

We study classes of right-angled Coxeter groups with respect to the strong submodel relation of parabolic subgroup. We show that the class of all right-angled Coxeter group is not smooth, and establish some general combinatorial criteria…

We prove that the irreducible affine Coxeter groups are first-order rigid and deduce from this that they are profinitely rigid in the absolute sense. We then show that the first-order theory of any irreducible affine Coxeter group does not…

We classify the groups quasi-isometric to a group generated by finite-order elements within the class of one-ended hyperbolic groups which are not Fuchsian and whose JSJ decomposition over two-ended subgroups does not contain rigid vertex…

A model for a finite group is a set of linear characters of subgroups that can be induced to obtain every irreducible character exactly once. A perfect model for a finite Coxeter group is a model in which the relevant subgroups are the…

We prove that affine Coxeter groups, even hyperbolic Coxeter groups and one-ended hyperbolic Coxeter groups are homogeneous in the sense of model theory. More generally, we prove that many (Gromov) hyperbolic groups generated by torsion…

In this paper, we give a new class of rigid Coxeter groups. Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system. Suppose that (0) for each $s,t\in S$ such that $m(s,t)$ is even, $m(s,t)=2$, (1) for each $s\neq t\in S$ such that $m(s,t)$ is odd, $\{s,t\}$ is a…

In this paper, we give a new class of rigid Coxeter groups. Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system. Suppose that (0) for each $s,t\in S$ such that $m(s,t)$ is even, $m(s,t)\in\{2\}\cup 4\N$, (1) for each $s\neq t\in S$ such that $m(s,t)$ is odd,…

Let $W_a$ be an affine Weyl group and $\eta:W_a\longrightarrow W_0$ be the natural projection to the corresponding finite Weyl group. We say that $w\in W_a$ has finite Coxeter part if $\eta(w)$ is conjugate to a Coxeter element of $W_0$.…

In this paper, we give a class of reflection rigid Coxeter systems. Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system. Suppose that (1) for each $s,t\in S$ such that $m(s,t)$ is odd, $\{s,t\}$ is a maximal spherical subset of $S$, (2) there does not exist a…

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…

Given an irreducible well-generated complex reflection group W with Coxeter number h, we call a Coxeter element any regular element (in the sense of Springer) of order h in W; this is a slight extension of the most common notion of Coxeter…

Given a reflection $r$ in a Coxeter group $W$ (possibly of infinite rank), we consider the subgroup of $W$ generated by the reflections in $W$ having (-1)-eigenvectors orthogonal to the (-1)-eigenvector of $r$. In this paper, we determine…

In this paper, we study the twist-conjecture for Coxeter systems and rigidity of Coxeter systems up to finite twists. For Coxeter systems $(W,R)$ and $(W,S)$, under the untangle-condition for conjugate subsets, we investigate separations…

In this paper, we show that the center of every Coxeter group is finite and isomorphic to $(\Z_2)^n$ for some $n\ge 0$. Moreover, for a Coxeter system $(W,S)$, we prove that $Z(W)=Z(W_{S\setminus\tilde{S}})$ and $Z(W_{\tilde{S}})=1$, where…

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 provide a complete description of the automorphism group $\Aut (W)$ of a Coxeter group $W$ admitting a star-shaped finite Coxeter diagram. We prove that each automorphism decomposes as a product of inner and diagram automorphisms, along…

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…

We provide involutory symmetric generating sets of finitely generated Coxeter groups, fulfilling a suitable finiteness condition, which in particular is fulfilled in the finite, affine and compact hyperbolic cases.

We construct finitely generated simple torsion-free groups with strong homological control. Our main result is that every subset of $\mathbb{N} \cup \{\infty\}$, with some obvious exceptions, can be realized as the set of dimensions of…
