A Coxeter matrix is of affine type if its bilinear form is indecomposable, positive semidefinite, and degenerate. Equivalently, it has Coxeter graph of affine Dynkin type.
Instances For
The affine hyperplane $E = \{\mu : \langle v_0, \mu\rangle = 1\}$ on which the affine Weyl group acts. Here $v_0$ is the positive radical vector of the Coxeter form.
Instances For
Typeclass packaging the convexity of the Tits cone $\mathcal U$. Used locally to allow the affine criterion to be stated abstractly.

Instances
Default instance: convexity of $\mathcal U$ follows from titsConeSet_convex.
Typeclass packaging the chamber-chasing / orbit-density property: every point of the affine hyperplane $E$ lies on a segment between two points of the Tits cone.

Instances
Default constructor: chamber-chasing follows from the local finiteness of nonposRoots and the characterization of the Tits cone in terms of $\nu$-finite points.
Instance form of chamberChasingProperty_instance.
Every positive root has nonnegative coordinates in the simple-root basis: $\alpha_t \ge 0$ for $\alpha \in \Phi^+$. Proved by contradiction using a face $F_I$ test point.
Nonzero points on the affine hyperplane $E$ lie in the Tits cone $\mathcal U$: this is the "upward step" toward proving $E \subseteq \mathcal U$ for affine Coxeter systems.
For affine Coxeter systems, the set of positive roots with $\langle \alpha, x\rangle \le 0$ is finite at any nonzero point $x$ of the affine hyperplane $E$.
Restatement: every nonzero point of $E$ is $\nu$-finite in $\Phi^+$.
Gallery chasing: any point of the affine hyperplane $E$ can be reflected into the closed fundamental chamber by a finite sequence of simple reflections.
Orbit density: every point of $E$ lies on a segment between two points of the Tits cone.
Gallery chasing reaches the Tits cone: any point of $E$ is in $\mathcal U$. Combines orbit density with convexity of $\mathcal U$.
The affine criterion: in an affine Coxeter system, the affine hyperplane $E$ is entirely contained in the Tits cone $\mathcal U$. Equivalently, $W$ acts on $E$ as an affine reflection group.
Restatement of the affine criterion: $E \cap \mathcal U = E$.
