Let $S$ be a bounded [*geometric shape*][1] in the Euclidean space $E=\mathbb{R^n}$. Assume that the origin of $E$ is a fixed point of every element of the [symmetry group][2] $G(S)$ of $S$, and assume that $$G(S)= \{g \in O(n) \ | \ g(S) = S \}.$$ Let $V:= E \otimes_{\mathbb{R}} \mathbb{C}$ be the [complexification][3] of $E$. It is a faithful complex representation of $G(S)$. **Question**: Under which conditions on $S$, the representation $V$ is irreducible? *Remark*: Here are two cases where $V$ is not irreducible: - $G(S) = \{ 1 \}$ and $n>1$, - the vector space generated by $S$, denoted $ \langle S \rangle$, is a strict subspace of $E$. > *For people thinking my question too broad, here are more specific > questions.* Let's assume that $n>1$, $G(S) \neq \{ 1 \}$ and $ \langle S \rangle = E$. *Question 1*: Is $V$ irreducible if $S$ is a regular polytope? *Question 2*: If so, can we extend to semiregular polytope? *Question 3*: If so, what is your better extension? *Remark*: All symmetry group of [regular polytopes][4] are [finite Coxeter groups][5]. Some finite Coxeter groups are symmetry groups of just [semiregular polytopes][6]. Then, a positive answer to Question 2 would imply that every finite Coxeter group admits an irreducible faithful complex representation.
