List of Irreducible Complex Reflection Groups
There are a few duplicates in the first 3 lines of this list; see the previous section for details.
- ST is the Shephard–Todd number of the reflection group.
- Rank is the dimension of the complex vector space the group acts on.
- Structure describes the structure of the group. The symbol * stands for a central product of two groups. For rank 2, the quotient by the (cyclic) center is the group of rotations of a tetrahedron, octahedron, or icosahedron (T = Alt(4), O = Sym(4), I = Alt(5), of orders 12, 24, 60), as stated in the table. For the notation 21+4, see extra special group.
- Order is the number of elements of the group.
- Reflections describes the number of reflections: 26412 means that there are 6 reflections of order 2 and 12 of order 4.
- Degrees gives the degrees of the fundamental invariants of the ring of polynomial invariants. For example, the invariants of group number 4 form a polynomial ring with 2 generators of degrees 4 and 6.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, irreducible, complex, reflection and/or groups:
“I made a list of things I have
to remember and a list
of things I want to forget,
but I see they are the same list.”
—Linda Pastan (b. 1932)
“Lovers, forget your love,
And list to the love of these,
She a window flower,
And he a winter breeze.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“If an irreducible distinction between theatre and cinema does exist, it may be this: Theatre is confined to a logical or continuous use of space. Cinema ... has access to an alogical or discontinuous use of space.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“The human mind is so complex and things are so tangled up with each other that, to explain a blade of straw, one would have to take to pieces an entire universe.... A definition is a sack of flour compressed into a thimble.”
—Rémy De Gourmont (18581915)
“Men should pledge themselves to nothing; for reflection makes a liar of their resolution.”
—Sophocles (497406/5 B.C.)
“Some of the greatest and most lasting effects of genuine oratory have gone forth from secluded lecture desks into the hearts of quiet groups of students.”
—Woodrow Wilson (18561924)
