Introduction to Complex Reflection Groups and Their Braid Groups (Lecture Notes in Mathematics, Vol. 1988) (Lecture Notes in Mathematics, 1988) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book covers basic properties of complex reflection groups, such as characterization, Steinberg theorem, Gutkin-Opdam matrices, Solomon theorem and applications, including the basic findings of Springer theory on eigenspaces.

From the Back Cover
Weyl groups are particular cases of complex reflection groups, i.e. finite subgroups of GLr(C) generated by (pseudo)reflections. These are groups whose polynomial ring of invariants is a polynomial algebra.
It has recently been discovered that complex reflection groups play a key role in the theory of finite reductive groups, giving rise as they do to braid groups and generalized Hecke algebras which govern the representation theory of finite reductive groups. It is now also broadly agreed upon that many of the known properties of Weyl groups can be generalized to complex reflection groups. The purpose of this work is to present a fairly extensive treatment of many basic properties of complex reflection groups (characterization, Steinberg theorem, Gutkin-Opdam matrices, Solomon theorem and applications, etc.) including the basic findings of Springer theory on eigenspaces. In doing so, we also introduce basic definitions and properties of the associated braid groups, as well as a quick introduction to Bessis' lifting of Springer theory to braid groups.
Review
From the reviews:
“It is the aim of the present notes to give an introduction to complex reflection groups in such a way as to lead the reader to the very forefront of research in this area. ... it is a useful addition to the growing literature on complex reflection groups.” (Stephen P. Humphries, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2011 d)"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
