The monoid homomorphism sending an affine isometry equivalence to its linear part.
Instances For
An affine reflection group on $E$ consists of a subgroup of affine isometries together with a locally finite hyperplane arrangement that is stable under the group, with each hyperplane realized as the fixed set of a non-trivial reflection in the group; the group is generated by these reflections, and parallel reflecting hyperplanes give the same linear part.

Instances For
An alcove is a chamber of the underlying hyperplane arrangement.
Instances For
A point $x$ is good if it lies in the complement of every reflecting hyperplane.
Instances For
A point $x$ is special if for every hyperplane $η$ of the arrangement there is a parallel hyperplane $η'$ in the arrangement passing through $x$.
Instances For
The linear part subgroup is the image of $W$ under the linear-part homomorphism.
Instances For
The translation subgroup of $W$: those elements with trivial linear part.
Instances For
The group $W$ is essential if its linear part has no nonzero fixed vector.
Instances For

Instances For
Intersection of $n+1$ open half-spaces $\{x : ⟨n_i, x⟩ > c_i\}$.
Instances For
Any chamber of a locally finite hyperplane arrangement is an intersection of finitely many open half-spaces.
Every alcove is a finite intersection of open half-spaces.
The set of hyperplanes of the arrangement that separate two chambers $C$ and $D$.
Instances For
If $s$ is the reflection in a wall $η$ of chamber $C$, and $η$ separates $C$ from $D$, then $s$ sends $C$ into some chamber $D'$ that is strictly closer to $D$ in the sense of having fewer separating hyperplanes.
Wall-separation reduction step: given two distinct chambers $C ≠ D$, there exists a wall-reflection of $C$ that sends $C$ to some chamber $D'$ with strictly fewer separating hyperplanes from $D$.
The interior of an affine hyperplane is empty.
Every affine hyperplane is a closed subset of $E$.
A finite union of closed sets with empty interior has empty interior (Baire-type fact).
There exists a generic point on $η$ that lies on no other hyperplane of the arrangement.
A small half-ball $B(z_0, δ) ∩ η^+$ around a generic point of $η$ lies in a single chamber.
Every hyperplane $η$ of the arrangement is a wall of at least one chamber.
Conjugating a wall reflection of $D$ by an element $w$ taking $C → D$ lies in the subgroup generated by wall reflections of $C$.
The wall-reflection closure is stable under conjugation by a wall reflection $s$ of $C$ when $s$ maps $C$ to $D'$.
Composition step: combining a wall reflection $s : C → D'$ with an element $w' : D' → D$ in the wall closure of $D'$ produces an element in the wall closure of $C$ mapping $C → D$.
Induction on the number of separating hyperplanes: for any two chambers $A,B$ there is an element of the wall-reflection closure of $A$ sending $A$ to $B$.
The wall-reflection closure of a chamber $C$ acts transitively on chambers.
Every reflection in $W$ belongs to the subgroup generated by the wall reflections of a fixed chamber $C$.
For any chamber $C$, the wall reflections of $C$ generate the whole group $W$.
The linear part of an isometry fixing an affine hyperplane fixes every vector orthogonal to the hyperplane normal.
If $A$ is described as the intersection of open half-spaces with given normals, then the normal of any wall of $A$ is parallel to one of these defining normals.
A vector orthogonal to all defining normals of an alcove $A$ is fixed by every element of the linear part group $W̄$.
For an essential, indecomposable affine reflection group, the wall normals of any alcove span $E$.
The linear-combination map sending coefficients $(c_i)$ to $\sum_i c_i n_i$.
Instances For
For an essential, indecomposable group, the kernel of the linear-combination map of the alcove normals is one-dimensional.
If an alcove is bounded by $m+1$ half-spaces in an essential, indecomposable group, then $\dim E = m$.
Any $m$ of the $m+1$ alcove normals are linearly independent (general position).
Full half-space description of an alcove: every alcove is bounded by $n+1$ hyperplanes whose normals span $E$ and are in general position, with $n = \dim E$.
A nonempty intersection of $n+1$ open half-spaces in $n$-dimensional general position is the interior of an affine $n$-simplex.
Every alcove of an essential, indecomposable affine reflection group is the interior of a simplex spanned by $n+1$ affinely independent vertices, where $n = \dim E$.
The set of walls of a single chamber is finite.

A non-trivial involutive reflection fixing $η$ has fixed-point set exactly $η$.
Any locally finite hyperplane arrangement admits at least one chamber.
The reflection across an affine hyperplane is unique: any two non-trivial involutions fixing the same hyperplane coincide.
Main result: an essential, indecomposable affine reflection group has a finite set $S$ of wall reflections of any chosen alcove that satisfies the defining property of a Coxeter system — each element is an involution in $W$, the set generates $W$, and each element is the unique reflection across some hyperplane of the arrangement.
