Involutions in Coxeter groups

We combinatorially characterize the number cc2 of conjugacy classes of involutions in any Coxeter group in terms of higher rank odd graphs. This notion naturally generalizes the concept of odd graphs, used previously to count the number of conjugacy classes of reflections. Moreover, we provide formu...

Description
Summary:We combinatorially characterize the number cc2 of conjugacy classes of involutions in any Coxeter group in terms of higher rank odd graphs. This notion naturally generalizes the concept of odd graphs, used previously to count the number of conjugacy classes of reflections. Moreover, we provide formulae for finite and affine types, besides computing cc 2 for all triangle groups and RACGs.
