Abstract: The group of alternating colored permutations is the natural analogue of the classical alternating group, inside the wreath product mathbbZrwrSn. We present a 'Coxeter-like' presentation for this group and compute the length function with respect to that presentation. Then, we present this group as a covering of mathbbZfracr2wrSn and use this point of view to give another expression for the length function. We also use this covering to lift several known parameters of mathbbZfracr2wrSn to the group of alternating colored permutations.


Summary: The group of alternating colored permutations is the natural analogue of the classical alternating group, inside the wreath product \(\mathbb Z_r\wr S_n\). We present a `Coxeter-like' presentation for this group and compute the length function with respect to that presentation. Then, we present this group as a covering of \(\mathbb Z_{\frac{r}{2}}\wr S_n\) and use this point of view to give another expression for the length function. We also use this covering to lift several known parameters of \(\mathbb Z_{\frac{r}{2}}\wr S_n\) to the group of alternating colored permutations.
