Cambrian fans

Nathan Reading, David E. Speyer (2009)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

For a finite Coxeter group W and a Coxeter element c of W ; the c -Cambrian fan is a coarsening of the fan defined by the reflecting hyperplanes of W . Its maximal cones are naturally indexed by the c -sortable elements of W . The main result of this paper is that the known bijection cl c between c -sortable elements and c -clusters induces a combinatorial isomorphism of fans. In particular, the c -Cambrian fan is combinatorially isomorphic to the normal fan of the generalized associahedron for W . The rays...

Combinatorial topology and the global dimension of algebras arising in combinatorics

Stuart Margolis, Franco Saliola, Benjamin Steinberg (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

In a highly influential paper, Bidigare, Hanlon and Rockmore showed that a number of popular Markov chains are random walks on the faces of a hyperplane arrangement. Their analysis of these Markov chains took advantage of the monoid structure on the set of faces. This theory was later extended by Brown to a larger class of monoids called left regular bands. In both cases, the representation theory of these monoids played a prominent role. In particular, it was used to compute the spectrum of the...

Coxeter group actions on the complement of hyperplanes and special involutions

Giovanni Felder, A. Veselov (2005)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider both standard and twisted actions of a (real) Coxeter group G on the complement G to the complexified reflection hyperplanes by combining the reflections with complex conjugation. We introduce a natural geometric class of special involutions in G and give explicit formulae which describe both actions on the total cohomology H * ( G , 𝒞 ) in terms of these involutions. As a corollary we prove that the corresponding twisted representation is regular only for the symmetric group S n , the Weyl groups...
