β¦ Synopsis
In this paper, we present formulas for the number of decompositions of elements of the Weyl groups of type A., D. and B, as products of a number of reflections that is not necessarily minimal. For this purpose, we consider the poset of conjugacy classes of W introduced in B6dard and Goupil (1992) for the symmetric group. This poset describes the action of the set of reflections of a reflection group on its conjugacy classes. In particular, we show how the reflection decompositions in the symmetric group 65. are related to the reflection decompositions in D..

The main result of the paper is to get the transition formulae between the alcove form and the permutation form of w β W a , where W a is an affine Weyl group of classical type. On the other hand, we get a new characterization for the alcove form of an affine Weyl group element which has a much simp
## Communicated by M. Lachowicz Let f β L 2,-l (R 3 ), where We prove the decomposition f =-βu+g, with g divergence free and u is a solution to the problem in R 3 Since f, u, g are defined in R 3 we need a sufficiently fast decay of these functions as |x|ββ.
A generalization of the notion of standard Young tableau has recently arisen from work on the representation theory of affine Hecke algebras. In the generalized setting, a standard tableau is defined to be any element of a finite Weyl group whose inversion set satisfies a certain pair of intersectio
We find a representative set of left cells of the affine Weyl group W of type C a 4
The aim of the present paper is to give an explicit description for all the left cells of the Weyl group W of type E 8 . We first find a representative set for the left cells of W and then use it to describe these cells. Our results show that most of the left cells in W can be characterized by their
