Profinite rigidity of affine Coxeter groups (2407.01141v2)

Abstract: We prove that the irreducible affine Coxeter groups are first-order rigid and deduce from this that they are profinitely rigid in the absolute sense. We then show that the first-order theory of any irreducible affine Coxeter group does not have a prime model. Finally, we prove that universal Coxeter groups of finite rank are homogeneous, and that the same applies to every hyperbolic (in the sense of Gromov) one-ended right-angled Coxeter group.
