Abstract: We consider presentations that were derived in cite{BaumeisterNeaimeRees} for the interval groups associated with proper quasi-Coxeter elements of the Coxeter group $W(D_n)$. We use combinatorial methods to derive alternative presentations for the groups, and use these new presentations to show that the interval group associated with a proper quasi-Coxeter element of $W(D_n)$ cannot be isomorphic to the Artin group of type $D_n$. While the specific problems we solve arise from the study of interval groups, their solution provides an illustration of how techniques indicated by computational observation can be used to derive properties of all groups within an infinite family.

Review text

In this paper, the authors consider presentations that were derived in [the first author et al., Algebr. Comb. 6, No. 2, 471--506 (2023; Zbl 1515.20191)] for the interval groups associated with proper quasi-Coxeter elements of the Coxeter group \(W(D_{n})\). They use combinatorial methods to derive alternative presentations for the groups, and use these new presentations to show that the interval group associated with a proper quasi-Coxeter element of \(W(D_{n})\) cannot be isomorphic to the Artin group of type \(D_{n}\). While the specific problems that the authors solve arise from the study of interval groups, their solution provides an illustration of how techniques indicated by computational observation can be used to derive properties of all groups within an infinite family.
