Let $W$ be a finite Coxeter group with Coxeter generating set $S=\{s_1,\ldots,s_n\}$, and $\rho$ be a complex finite dimensional representation of $W$. The characteristic polynomial of $\rho$ is defined as \begin{equation*}…

In [APS], the authors characterize the partitions of $n$ whose corresponding representations of $S_n$ have nontrivial determinant. The present paper extends this work to all irreducible finite Coxeter groups $W$. Namely, given a nontrivial…

We find a simple product formula for the characteristic polynomial of the permutations with a fixed descent set under the weak order. As a corollary we obtain a simple product formula for the characteristic polynomial of alternating…

We obtain new presentations for the imprimitive complex reflection groups of type $(de,e,r)$ and their braid groups $B(de,e,r)$ for $d,r \ge 2$. Diagrams for these presentations are proposed. The presentations have much in common with…

A Gelfand model for a finite group $G$ is a complex linear representation of $G$ that contains each of its irreducible representations with multiplicity one. For a finite group $G$ with a faithful representation $V$, one constructs a…

We construct a quotient ring of the ring of diagonal coinvariants of the complex reflection group $W=G(m,p,n)$ and determine its graded character. This generalises a result of Gordon for Coxeter groups. The proof uses a study of category…

We present and study two families of polynomials with coefficients in the center of the universal enveloping algebra. These polynomials are analogues of a determinant and a characteristic polynomial of a certain non-commutative matrix,…

For a tuple of square complex-valued $N\times N$ matrices $A_1,\dots,A_n$ the determinant of their linear combination $x_1A_1+\cdots +x_nA_n$, which is called \textit{a pencil}, is a homogeneous polynomial of degree $N$ in $\C[x_1,...x_n]$.…

We compute the characteristic polynomials of affine Cartan, adjacency matrices and Coxeter polynomials of the associated Coxeter system using Chebyshev polynomials. We give explicit factorization of these polynomials as products of…

By generalizing Frobenius' polynomial method to good partition algebra, we will develop new character theories for a finite group $G$. A uniform defining equations are derived for these kinds of character theories. The new character…

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…

In this paper, we obtain a general formula for the characteristic polynomial of a finitely dimensional representation of Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2, \C )$ and the form for these characteristic polynomials, and prove there is one to one…

A class P_{n,m,p}(x) of polynomials is defined. The combinatorial meaning of its coefficients is given. Chebyshev polynomials are the special cases of P_{n,m,p}(x). It is first shown that P_{n,m,p}(x) may be expressed in terms of…

We prove that a finite complex reflection group has a generalized involution model, as defined by Bump and Ginzburg, if and only if each of its irreducible factors is either $G(r,p,n)$ with $\gcd(p,n)=1$; $G(r,p,2)$ with $r/p$ odd; or…

We prove that certain classical groups $G\subseteq {\rm GL}(d,\mathbb{R}^d)$ serve to characterize ordinary polynomials in $d$ real variables as elements of finite-dimensional subspaces of $C(\mathbb{R}^d)$ that are invariant by changes of…

We explore some interesting features of the characteristic polynomial of the Cartan matrix of a simple Lie algebra. The characteristic polynomial is closely related with the Chebyshev polynomials of first and second kind. In addition, we…

In this paper we describe a family of isomorphism invariants of a finitely generated Coxeter group W. Each of these invariants is the isomorphism type of a quotient group W/N of W by a characteristic subgroup N. The virtue of these…

Let $d$ be a positive integer. We study the proportion of irreducible characters of infinite families of irreducible Coxeter groups whose values evaluated on a fixed element $g$ are divisible by $d$. For Coxeter groups of types $A_n, B_n$…

We first show the existence of an effective determinantal representation for any univariate polynomial with real coefficients. Then, we more precisely establish that any univariate polynomial with real coefficients has an effective…
