Coxeter Covers of the Classical Coxeter Groups
Let C(T ) be a generalized Coxeter group, which has a natural map onto one of the classical Coxeter groups, either Bn or Dn. Let CY (T ) be a natural quotient of C(T ), and if C(T ) is simply-laced (which means all the relations between the generators has order 2 or 3), CY (T ) is a generalized Coxeter group, too . Let At,n be a group which contains t Abelian groups generated by n elements. The...
متن کاملEssays on Coxeter groups Coxeter elements in finite Coxeter groups
A finite Coxeter group possesses a distinguished conjugacy class of Coxeter elements. The literature about these is very large, but it seems to me that there is still room for a better motivated account than what exists. The standard references on thismaterial are [Bourbaki:1968] and [Humphreys:1990], butmy treatment follows [Steinberg:1959] and [Steinberg:1985], from which the clever parts of ...
متن کاملAutomorphisms of Coxeter Groups
We compute Aut(W ) for any even Coxeter group whose Coxeter diagram is connected, contains no edges labeled 2, and cannot be separated into more than 2 connected components by removing a single vertex. The description is given explicitly in terms of the given presentation for the Coxeter group and admits an easy characterization of those groups W for which Out(W ) is finite.
متن کاملCoxeter Groups and Asphericalmanifolds
I. Contractible manifolds and aspherical manifolds. Suppose that M n is a compact, contractible n-manifold with boundary. These assumptions imply that the boundary of M has the homology of an (n-l)-sphere; however, they do not imply that it is simply connected. If n ~ 3, then for M n to be homeomorphic to a disk it is obviously necessary that ~M be simply connected. For n ~ 5 this condition is ...
متن کاملMatroids and Coxeter groups
The paper describes a few ways in which the concept of a Coxeter group (in its most ubiquitous manifestation, the symmetric group) emerges in the theory of ordinary matroids: • Gale’s maximality principle which leads to the Bruhat order on the symmetric group; • Jordan–Hölder permutation which measures distance between two maximal chains in a semimodular lattice and which happens to be closely ...
