Abstract We show that the Hurwitz action is “as transitive as possible” on reflection factorizations of Coxeter elements in the well generated complex reflection groups G(d, 1, n) (the group of d-colored permutations) and G(d, d, n). Mathematics Subject Classifications: 20F36, 20F55, 05E18
1 Introduction
Given a group G with a generating set T that is closed under conjugation, the braid group m Bm := hσ1, . . . , σm−1 | σiσi+1σi = σi+1σiσi+1i on m strands acts on T via
