The cyclic version of Matsumoto's theorem for infinite parabolic closure
The cyclic version of Matsumoto's theorem for infinite parabolic closure
Let be a Coxeter group and let be a -conjugacy class. The class satisfies the cyclic version of Matsumoto's theorem (CVMT) if any two reduced words of torically reduced elements in differ by braid relations and cyclic shifts. For an element , write for its support and for the corresponding parabolic subgroup; call an irreducible component infinite when the associated Coxeter group is infinite.
Cyclic Matsumoto conjecture. The CVMT holds for a -conjugacy class as long as the parabolic closure of its minimal elements contains only infinite irreducible components.
The conjecture proposes that failure of CVMT occurs only when a minimal cyclically reduced element has support conjugate to a different support. The supplied context records proofs for broader classes, including infinite-order elements with property and finite groups, but gives no resolution of this stated general claim.
