The excess of an element $w$ of a finite Coxeter group $W$ is the minimal value of $l(x) + l(y) - l(w)$, where $x$, $y$ are elements of $W$ such that $x^2 = y^2 = 1$ and $w = xy$. Every element of a finite Coxeter group is either an…

Let $W$ be a Coxeter group whose proper parabolic subgroups are finite. According to Theorem~1.12 of [1], if the module of a finite $W$-digraph $\Gamma$ is isomorphic to the module of a $W$-graph over $Q$, then $\Gamma$ is acyclic. We…

We prove that curve complexes of surfaces are finitely rigid: for every orientable surface S of finite topological type, we identify a finite subcomplex X of the curve complex C(S) such that every locally injective simplicial map from X…

There is a natural action of the braid group on the symmetric matrices with units on the diagonal, appearing in various fields as Singularity Theory, Frobenius Manifolds or Isomonodromic deformations of certain classes of linear…

Let $\mathcal{W}$ be the set of strongly real elements of $W$, a Coxeter group. Then for $w \in \mathcal{W}$, $e(w)$, the excess of $w$, is defined by $e(w) = \min\{\ell(x) + \ell(y) - \ell(w) \; | \; w=xy, x^2 = y^2 = 1\}$. When $W$ is…

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…

Let Q be a Dynkin quiver of type A. The bounded derived category of the path algebra of Q has an autoequivalence given by the composition of the Auslander-Reiten translate and the square of the shift functor. We classify the maximal rigid…

Mathematical theories are classified in two distinct classes : {\it rigid}, and on the other hand, {\it non-rigid} ones. Rigid theories, like group theory, topology, category theory, etc., have a basic concept - given for instance by a set…

Suppose that $W$ is a finite Coxeter group and $W_J$ a standard parabolic subgroup of $W$. The main result proved here is that for any for any $w \in W$ and reduced expression of $w$ there is an Elnitsky tiling of a $2m$-polygon, where $m =…

We combinatorially characterize the number $\mathrm{cc}_2$ of conjugacy classes of involutions in any Coxeter group in terms of higher rank odd graphs. This notion naturally generalizes the concept of odd graphs, used previously to count…

Let $C(T)$ be a generalized Coxeter group, which has a natural map onto one of the classical Coxeter groups, either $B_n$ or $D_n$. Let $C_Y(T)$ be a natural quotient of $C(T)$, and if $C(T)$ is simply-laced (which means all the relations…

A group $G$ is said to be just infinite if $G$ itself is infinite but all proper quotients of $G$ are finite. We show that a Coxeter group $W_\Gamma$ is just infinite if and only if $\Gamma$ is isomorphic to one of the following graphs:…

Given an essential semilattice congruence $\equiv$ on the left weak order of a Coxeter group $W$, we define the Coxeter stack-sorting operator ${\bf S}_\equiv:W\to W$ by ${\bf S}_\equiv(w)=w\left(\pi_\downarrow^\equiv(w)\right)^{-1}$, where…

Motivated by Kloeckner's result on the isometry group of the quadratic Wasserstein space $\mathcal{W}_2\left(\mathbb{R}^n\right)$, we describe the isometry group $\mathrm{Isom}\left(\mathcal{W}_p (E)\right)$ for all parameters $0 < p <…

For a Coxeter group (W,S), a permutation of the set S is called a Coxeter word and the group element represented by the product is called a Coxeter element. Moving the first letter to the end of the word is called a rotation and two Coxeter…

A new notion of independence relation is given and associated to it, the class of flat theories, a subclass of strong stable theories including the superstable ones is introduced. More precisely, after introducing this independence…

We have identified some necessary conditions for the existence of rigid sphere designs. In particular, we have successfully resolved the conjecture proposed by [Ban87]; Given fixed positive integers t and d, we show that there exist only…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system, and write $S=\{s_i:i\in I\}$, where $I$ is a finite index set. Fix a nonempty convex subset $\mathscr{L}$ of $W$. If $W$ is of type $A$, then $\mathscr{L}$ is the set of linear extensions of a poset, and…

In recent papers we have refined a conjecture of Lehrer and Solomon expressing the character of a finite Coxeter group $W$ acting on the $p$th graded component of its Orlik-Solomon algebra as a sum of characters induced from linear…

A classical result of H. S. M. Coxeter asserts that a certain quotient $B(m,n)$ of the braid group $B(m)$ on $m$ strands is finite if and only if $(m,n)$ corresponds to the type of one of the five Platonic solids. If ${\bf k}$ is a knot or…
