Alcoves Corresponding to an Affine Weyl Group

Department of Mathematics, East China Normal University Shanghai, China
In this paper, I study the alcoves of a Euclidean space E corresponding to an affine Weyl group Wa I give the coordinate form of an alcove of E and establish an explicit correspondence between the elements of Wa and the alcoves of E. In particular, I characterize an alcove by a
-tuple over Z subject to certain conditions, where
is the root system determined by Wa.
