On a Conjecture of Dyer on the Join in the Weak Order of a Coxeter group

Abstract

In one of his papers on the weak order of Coxeter groups, Dyer formulates several conjectures. Among these, one affirms that the extended weak order forms a lattice, while another offers an algebraic-geometric description of the join of two elements in this poset. The former was recently proven for affine types by Barkley and Speyer. In this paper, we establish the latter for Coxeter groups of types $A$ and $I$. Moreover, we verified the validity of this conjecture for types $H_3$ and $F_4$ through the use of Sage.
