In the infinite families of generalized permutations, our approach is fully combinatorial. It gives results analogous to those of Jackson in the symmetric group and can be refined to encode a notion of cycle type. As one application of our results, we give a previously overlooked characterization of the poset of $W$-noncrossing partitions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-06-27T20:59:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20F55", "05E10", "05A15" ], "keywords": [ "factorization problems", "generated complex reflection group", "cycle type", "coxeter element", "arbitrary factors" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 42, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
