Abstract: Abstract Any discrete group W generated by reflections in a space of constant curvature X (discrete reflection group) can be described in terms of its fundamental region P,which is a convex polyhedron whose dihedral angles are proper submultiples of π. By immersing the space X in a linear space E (the ambient space), P extends to a convex polyhedral cone C p and W extends to a linear group generated by reflections in the faces of C p (linear Coxeter group).
