Reference request: which elements in a Coxeter group has longest reflection length?
Let $V$ be a vector space over $\mathbb{R}$. An element $s \in GL(V)$ is a reflection if $H_s:=\ker(s-1)$ is a hyperplane and $s^2=1$. The eigenvalues of a reflection $s$ are $1, -1$. Every reflection …

Coxeter group action on the product of root systems
Let W be a finite Coxeter group and $\Phi^+$ the set of its positive roots. The Coxeter group acts on $\Phi^+$ by $(w, \alpha) \mapsto w \cdot \alpha$ if $w \cdot \alpha \in \Phi^+$ and $(w, \alpha) \ …

Closed subsets in Coxeter groups
Let $W$ be a finite or infinite Coxeter group and $\Phi^+$ the set of its positive roots.
In the paper, a subset $A$ of $\Phi^+$ is closed if for all $a, b \in A$, $r_1 a + r_2 b \in \Phi^+$ for som …

What is the Cartan matrix for a dihedral group?
Dihedral groups are Coxeter groups of type $I_m$, $m \geq 3$. The Coxeter matrix of $I_m$ is
\begin{align}
\left( \begin{matrix} 1 & m \\ m & 1 \end{matrix} \right).
\end{align}
When $m=3,4,6$, $I_m$ …

Positive roots and elements in a Coxeter group.
In the paper, a set $L$ associated to an element $w$ in a Coxeter group $W$ is defined as follows. Let $w=s_{i_1} \cdots s_{i_m}$ be a reduced expression. Define $L=\{\beta_1, \ldots, \beta_m\}$, wher …
