We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server as of 1 March 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.

Complex crystallographic Coxeter groups and affine root systems
Joseph Bernstein, Dimitry A. Leites and Ossip Schwarzman
Abstract
We classify (up to an isomorphism in the category of affine groups) the complex crystallographic groups $\Gamma$ generated by reflections and such that $d\Gamma$, its linear part, is a Coxeter group, i.e., $d\Gamma$ is generated by "real" reflections of order 2.
