The combinatorial Coxeter properties of a chamber complex: thinness plus, for every adjacent pair $C \sim D$, a folding that fixes $C$ and sends $D$ to $C$.
- thin : K.IsThin
Instances For
Two chambers $C, D$ are separated by a wall if some reversible folding places them on opposite sides.
Instances For
$K$ is a Coxeter complex: it carries a bijective labelling $\varphi : \text{chambers} \to W$ into a Coxeter group $W$ such that adjacency corresponds to right multiplication by a simple generator, every facet is shared by at least one other chamber.
Instances For
$K$ has sufficient reversible foldings: every adjacent pair admits a reversible folding swapping them as boundary chambers of the wall.
Instances For
Sufficient reversible foldings give the "folding maps adjacent to self" condition.
Assemble CoxeterProperties K from thinness plus sufficient reversible foldings.
Instances For
Sufficient reversible foldings imply that every adjacent pair is separated by a wall.
Converse: in a thin complex, "adjacent chambers separated by a wall" implies sufficient reversible foldings.
Sufficient reversible foldings imply the (one-sided) "sufficient foldings" condition used in the Tits/AptIsCoxeter proof.
One direction of the characterization: every Coxeter complex is thin and has sufficient reversible foldings.
Converse of the characterization: a thin chamber complex with sufficient foldings is a Coxeter complex.
Main characterization: $K$ is a Coxeter complex iff $K$ is thin and every adjacent pair of chambers is separated by a wall.
An injective vertex map sends distinct chambers to distinct image chambers.
The image of a gallery under an injective map never stutters.
