Coxeter's enumeration of Coxeter groups
Abstract
Abstract In a short paper that appeared in the Journal of the London Mathematical Society in 1934, H. S. M. Coxeter completed the classification of finite Coxeter groups. In this survey, we describe what Coxeter did in this paper and examine an assortment of topics that illustrate the broad and enduring influence of Coxeter's paper on developments in algebra, group theory, and geometry.
