Reflection groups on Riemannian manifolds

微分几何 2007-07-05 v1 群论

摘要

We investigate discrete groups GG of isometries of a complete connected Riemannian manifold MM which are generated by reflections, in particular those generated by disecting reflections. We show that these are Coxeter groups, and that the the orbit space M/GM/G is isometric to a Weyl chamber CC which is a Riemannian manifold with corners and certain angle conditions along intersections of faces. We can also reconstruct the manifold and its action from the Riemannian chamber and its equipment of isotropy group data along the faces. We also discuss these results from the point of view of Riemannian orbifolds.
