In this article, we propose to initiate the general study of involution systems. An {\em involution system}, that is, a group $W$ generated by a set of involutions $S$, is naturally endowed with a {\em weak order} arising from orienting the…
In any Coxeter group, the conjugates of elements in the standard minimal generating set are called reflections and the minimal number of reflections needed to factor a particular element is called its reflection length. In this article we…
It has recently been established byWang and Xia [WX] that local minimizers of perimeter within a ball subject to a volume constraint must be spherical caps or planes through the origin. This verifies a conjecture of the authors and is in…
We study minimal sets on continua $X$ with a dense free interval $J$ and a locally connected remainder. This class of continua includes important spaces such as the topologist's sine curve or the Warsaw circle. In the case when minimal sets…
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…
In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of globally minimizing orbits of contact Hamiltonian systems. Under some assumptions, we prove that the $\omega$-limit set of globally minimizing orbits is contained in the set of semi-static…
We classify all quotients $W/W_J$ up to isomorphism in Bruhat order, with $(W,S)$ a Coxeter system and $W_J$ a parabolic subgroup of $W$. In particular, the non-trivial isomorphisms fall into a small number of cases which are highly…
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…
The isomorphism problem for Coxeter groups has been reduced to its 'reflection preserving version' by B. Howlett and the second author. Thus, in order to solve it, it suffices to determine for a given Coxeter system (W,R) all Coxeter…
We adapt the method of Simon [JDG '93] to prove a $C^{1,\alpha}$-regularity theorem for minimal varifolds which resemble a cone $\bf{C}_0^2$ over an equiangular geodesic net. For varifold classes admitting a "no-hole" condition on the…
We obtain an upper bound for the Morse index of Willmore spheres $\Sigma\subset S^3$ coming from an immersion of $S^2$. The quantization of Willmore energy shows that there exists an integer $m$ such that $\mathscr{W}(\Sigma)=4\pi m$. Then…
We consider a group $G$ acting on a local dendrite $X$ (in particular on a graph). We give a full characterization of minimal sets of $G$ by showing that any minimal set $M$ of $G$ (whenever $X$ is different from a dendrite) is either a…
Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded domain in ${\mathbb R}^n$, $0\textless{}s\textless{}\infty$ and $1\le p\textless{}\infty$. We prove that $C^\infty(\overline\Omega\, ; {\mathbb S}^1)$ is dense in $W^{s,p}(\Omega ; {\mathbb S}^1)$ except…
For a finite real reflection group $W$ with Coxeter element $\gamma$ we give a uniform proof that the closed interval, $[I, \gamma]$ forms a lattice in the partial order on $W$ induced by reflection length. The proof involves the…
An odd Coxeter group $W$ is one which admits a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ for which all the exponents $m_{ij}$ are either odd or infinity. The paper investigates the family of odd Coxeter groups whose associated labeled graphs…
In this paper, we propose and analyze a finite element discretization for the computation of fractional minimal graphs of order~$s \in (0,1/2)$ on a bounded domain $\Omega$. Such a Plateau problem of order $s$ can be reinterpreted as a…
We present a new proof of the following theorem of Benoist-Quint: Let $G:=SO^\circ(d,1)$, $d\ge 2$ and $\Delta<G$ a cocompact lattice. Any orbit of a Zariski dense subgroup $\Gamma$ of $G$ is either finite or dense in $\Delta\backslash G$.…
We consider the functional $$I_\Omega(v) = \int_\Omega [f(|Dv|) - v] dx,$$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain and $f$ is a convex function. Under general assumptions on $f$, G. Crasta [Cr1] has shown that if $I_\Omega$ admits a minimizer in…
For an arbitrary Coxeter group $W$, David Speyer and Nathan Reading defined Cambrian semilattices $C_{\gamma}$ as semilattice quotients of the weak order on $W$ induced by certain semilattice homomorphisms. In this article, we define an…
The normalizer $N_W(W_J)$ of a standard parabolic subgroup $W_J$ of a finite Coxeter group $W$ splits over the parabolic subgroup with complement $N_J$ consisting of certain minimal length coset representatives of $W_J$ in $W$. In this note…
