Hurwitz Action

AbstractWe provide a necessary and sufficient condition on an element of a finite Coxeter group to ensure the transitivity of the Hurwitz action on its set of reduced decompositions into products of reflections. We show that this action is transitive if and only if the element is a parabolic quasi-Coxeter element. We call an element of the Coxeter group parabolic quasi-Coxeter element if it has a factorization into a product of reflections that generate a parabolic subgroup. We give an unusual definition of a parabolic subgroup that we show to be equivalent to the classical one for finite Coxeter groups.

Special Case

We apply a special case, the restriction principle (for which we give a definition simpler than the usual one), of a basic result in functional analysis (the polar decomposition of an operator) in order to define , the -version of the Segal-Bargmann transform, associated with a finite Coxeter group acting in and a given value of Planck's constant, where is a multiplicity function on the roots defining the Coxeter group. Then we immediately prove that is a unitary isomorphism. To accomplish this we identify the reproducing kernel function of the appropriate Hilbert space of holomorphic functions. As a consequence we prove that the Segal-Bargmann transforms for Versions , , and are also unitary isomorphisms though not by a direct application of the restriction principle. The point is that the -version is the only version where a restriction principle, in our definition of this method, applies directly. This reinforces the idea that the -version is the most fundamental, most natural version of the Segal-Bargmann transform.

Jacobi Transform

In this paper we extend the definition of the continuous Jacobi transform to a class of generalized functions and obtain a generalized inversion formula for it. As a by-product of our technique we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for an analytic functionF(λ)inReλ>0to be the continuous Jacobi transform of a generalized function.

Necessary And Sufficient

In the last two decades, there has been a great deal of interest in providing an intentional criterion of the psychological. Of the various ones proferred, it seems to me that the best was the earliest, which was Chisholm’s initial criterion in his 1955 essay “Sentences about Believing.” In this present paper I first single out a basic misconception pervading the recent literature on intentionality and suggest that a consequence of this misconception has been the futile attempt to use the notion of intentionality to provide a kind of definition of “mind”; that is, to use intentionality to provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the psychological. Secondly, I point out how intentionality as captured by my own criterion is indispensable in that it is an essential property of certain particulars (persons) which are basic to our conceptual scheme and apparently basic to any conceptual scheme whatsoever.

Necessary And Sufficient

In this work a geometrical representation of equilibrium and near equilibrium statistical mechanics is proposed. Using a formalism consistent with the Bra-Ket notation and the definition of inner product as a Lebasque integral, we describe the macroscopic equilibrium states in classical statistical mechanics by “properly transformed probability Euclidian vectors” that point on a manifold of spherical symmetry. Furthermore, any macroscopic thermodynamic state “close” to equilibrium is described by a triplet that represent the “infinitesimal volume” of the points, the Euclidian probability vector at equilibrium that points on a hypersphere of equilibrium thermodynamic state and a Euclidian vector a vector on the tangent bundle of the hypersphere. The necessary and sufficient condition for such representation is expressed as an invertibility condition on the proposed transformation. Finally, the relation of the proposed geometric representation, to similar approaches introduced under the context of differential geometry, information geometry, and finally the Ruppeiner and the Weinhold geometries, is discussed. It turns out that in the case of thermodynamic equilibrium, the proposed representation can be considered as a Gauss map of a parametric representation of statistical mechanics.

Abstract We provide a weaker version of the generalized lifting property that holds in complete generality for all Coxeter groups, and we use it to show that every parabolic Bruhat interval of a finite Coxeter group is a Coxeter matroid. We also describe some combinatorial properties of the associated polytopes.

AbstractThe conjugacy classes of so-called special involutions parameterize the constituents of the action of a finite Coxeter group on the cohomology of the complement of its complexified hyperplane arrangement. In this note we give a short intrinsic characterisation of special involutions in terms of so-called bulky parabolic subgroups.

A necessary and sufficient condition for the associated sequence of functionals to a complete minimal sequence to be a Banach frame has been given. We give the definition of a weak-exact Banach frame, and observe that an exact Banach frame is weak-exact. An example of a weak-exact Banach frame which is not exact has been given. A necessary and sufficient condition for a Banach frame to be a weak-exact Banach frame has been obtained. Finally, a necessary condition for the perturbation of a retro Banach frame by a finite number of linearly independent vectors to be a retro Banach frame has been given.

Natural Way

In this paper the concept of a∗-semilattice is introduced as a generalization to distributive∗-lattice first introduced by Speed [1]. It is shown that almost all the results of Speed can be extended to a more eneral class of distributive∗-semilattices. In pseudocomplemented semilattices and distributive semilattices the set of annihilators of an element is an ideal in the sense of Grätzer [2]. But it is not so in general and thus we are led to the definition of a weakly distributive semilattice. In§2we actually obtain the interesting corollary that a modular∗-semilattice is weakly distributive if and only if its dense filter is neutral. In§3the concept of a sectionally pseudocomplemented semilattice is introduced in a natural way. It is proved that given a sectionally pseudocomplemented semilattice there is a smallest quotient of it which is a sectionally Boolean algebra. Further as a corollary to one of the theorems it is obtained that a sectionally pseudocomplemented semilattice with a dense element becomes a∗-semilattice. Finally a necessary and sufficient condition for a∗-semilattice to be a pseudocomplemented semilattice is obtained.

Special Cases

For a Coxeter group $(W,S)$, a permutation of the set $S$ is called a Coxeter word and the group element represented by the product is called a Coxeter element. Moving the first letter to the end of the word is called a rotation and two Coxeter elements are rotation equivalent if their words can be transformed into each other through a sequence of rotations and legal commutations. We prove that Coxeter elements are conjugate if and only if they are rotation equivalent. This was known for some special cases but not for Coxeter groups in general.

In this article, we investigate the set of $\gamma$-sortable elements, associated with a Coxeter group $W$ and a Coxeter element $\gamma\in W$, under Bruhat order, and we denote this poset by $\mathcal{B}_{\gamma}$. We show that this poset belongs to the class of SB-lattices recently introduced by Hersh and Mészáros, by proving a more general statement, namely that all join-distributive lattices are SB-lattices. The observation that $\mathcal{B}_{\gamma}$ is join-distributive is due to Armstrong. Subsequently, we investigate for which finite Coxeter groups $W$ and which Coxeter elements $\gamma\in W$ the lattice $\mathcal{B}_{\gamma}$ is in fact distributive. It turns out that this is the case for the "coincidental" Coxeter groups, namely the groups $A_{n},B_{n},H_{3}$ and $I_{2}(k)$. We conclude this article with a conjectural characteriziation of the Coxeter elements $\gamma$ of said groups for which $\mathcal{B}_{\gamma}$ is distributive in terms of forbidden orientations of the Coxeter diagram.
