Cyclic sieving for longest reduced words in the hyperoctahedral group (Q976718)

Summary: We show that the set \(R(w_0)\) of reduced expressions for the longest element in the hyperoctahedral group exhibits the cyclic sieving phenomenon. More specifically, \(R(w_0)\) possesses a natural cyclic action given by moving the first letter of a word to the end, and we show that the orbit structure of this action is encoded by the generating function for the major index on \(R(w_0)\).
