AbstractIt is known that there exists a canonical system for every finite real reflection group. In a previous paper, the first and the third authors obtained an explicit formula for a canonical system. In this article, we first define canonical systems for the finite unitary reflection groups, and then prove their existence. Our proof does not depend on the classification of unitary reflection groups. Furthermore, we give an explicit formula for a canonical system for every unitary reflection group.

AbstractThe imprimitive unitary reflection group G(m, p, n) acts on the vector space V =Cn naturally. The symmetric group Sk acts on ⊗kV by permuting the tensor product factors. We show that the algebra of all matrices on ⊗kV commuting with G(m, p, n) is generated by Sk and three other elements. This is a generalization of Jones’s results for the symmetric group case [J].

Let a prime $p$ divide the order of a finite real reflection group. We classify the reflection subgroups up to conjugacy that are minimal with respect to inclusion, subject to containing a $p$-Sylow subgroup. For Weyl groups, this is achieved by an algorithm inspired by the Borel–de Siebenthal algorithm. The cases where there is not a unique conjugacy class of reflection subgroups minimally containing the $p$-Sylow subgroups are the groups of type $F_{4}$ when $p=2$ and $I_{2}(m)$ when $m\geq 6$ is even but not a power of $2$ for each odd prime divisor $p$ of $m$. The classification significantly reduces the cases required to describe the $p$-Sylow subgroups of finite real reflection groups.

In this paper, we give a characterization for the modular party algebra Pn,r(Q) by generators and relations. By specializing the parameter Q to a positive integer k, this algebra becomes the centralizer of the unitary reflection group G(r, 1, k) in the endomorphism ring of V⊗n under the condition that k ≥ n.

AbstractWe give a full classification of vertex-transitive zonotopes. We prove that a vertex-transitive zonotope is a $$\Gamma $$ Γ -permutahedron for some finite reflection group $$\Gamma \subset {{\,\mathrm{O}\,}}(\mathbb {R}^d)$$ Γ ⊂ O ( R d ) . The same holds true for zonotopes in which all vertices are on a common sphere, and all edges are of the same length. The classification of these then follows from the classification of finite reflection groups. We prove that root systems can be characterized as those centrally symmetric sets of vectors, for which all intersections with half-spaces, that contain exactly half the vectors, are congruent. We provide a further sufficient condition for a centrally symmetric set to be a root system.
