Abstract

This paper examines a systematic method of constructing a pair of (inter-related) root systems for arbitrary Coxeter groups from a class of nonstandard geometric representations. This method can be employed to construct generalizations of root systems for a large family of linear groups generated by involutions. We then give a characterization of Coxeter groups, among these groups, in terms of such paired root systems. Furthermore, we use this method to construct and study the paired root systems for reflection subgroups of Coxeter groups.
