چکیده

Let (W,S) be a Coxeter system and let s ∈ S. We call s a right-angled generator of (W,S) if st = ts or st has infinite order for each t ∈ S. We call s an intrinsic reflection of W if s ∈ RW for all Coxeter generating sets R of W . We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a right-angled generator s ∈ S of (W,S) to be an intrinsic reflection of W .

Coxeter Systems with Two-dimensional Davis-vinberg Complexes

In this paper, we study Coxeter systems with two-dimensional DavisVinberg complexes. We show that for a Coxeter group W , if (W, S) and (W, S) are Coxeter systems with two-dimensional Davis-Vinberg complexes, then there exists S ⊂ W such that (W, S) is a Coxeter system which is isomorphic to (W, S) and the sets of reflections in (W, S) and (W, S) coincide. Hence the Coxeter diagrams of (W, S) a...

Centralizers of reflections and reflection-independence of Coxeter groups

A Coxeter group W is called reflection independent if its reflections are uniquely determined by W only, independently on the choice of the generating set. We give a new sufficient condition for the reflection independence, and examine this condition for Coxeter groups in certain classes, possibly of infinite ranks. We also determine the finite irreducible components of another Coxeter group, t...

Automorphisms of nearly finite Coxeter groups

Suppose that W is an infinite Coxeter group of finite rank n, and suppose that W has a finite parabolic subgroup WJ of rank n 1. Suppose also that the Coxeter diagram of W has no edges with infinite labels. Then any automorphism of W that preserves reflections lies in the subgroup of AutðWÞ generated by the inner automorphisms and the automorphisms induced by symmetries of the Coxeter graph. If...

Reflection subgroups of odd-angled Coxeter groups

We give a criterion for a finitely generated odd-angled Coxeter group to have a proper finite index subgroup generated by reflections. The answer is given in terms of the least prime divisors of the exponents of the Coxeter relations.
