Random endomorphisms of spherical reflection groups

群论 2026-05-28 v1

摘要

The goal of this paper is to understand the set End(W)\mathrm{End}(W) of endomorphisms of an irreducible spherical reflection group WW. We do this in two ways: numerically, by deriving an explicit formula for End(W)|\mathrm{End}(W)|; and probabilistically, by exploring the question \textit{what does a random endomorphism of WW look like?} For example, we show that as nn\to\infty the probability that a random endomorphism of WnW_n is an automorphism tends to 12\frac{1}{2} if Wn=C2nW_n=C_{2n} or DnD_n, to 14\frac{1}{4} if Wn=C2n+1W_n=C_{2n+1}, and to 11 if Wn=An.W_n=A_n.
