To do so we work with the geometric realization of a finite Coxeter group and a classical result obtained by Dyer in \\cite{Dyer}. As an applications we obtain a bound for the spectral gap of the Bruhat graph of any finite Coxeter group and an isoperimetric inequality for them. Our proofs are case-free.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-02-20T20:51:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20F55", "53A70", "05C50" ], "keywords": [ "bruhat graph", "finite coxeter group", "discrete ricci curvature", "geometric realization", "spectral gap" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
