Abstract

Solomon showed that the Poincar\'e polynomial of a Coxeter group WW satisfies a product decomposition depending on the exponents of WW. This polynomial coincides with the rank-generating function of the poset of regions of the underlying Coxeter arrangement. In this note we determine all instances when the analogous factorization property of the rank-generating function of the poset of regions holds for a restriction of a Coxeter arrangement. It turns out that this is always the case with the exception of some instances in type E8E_8.
