In this thesis, we study positive matrices (matrices whose entries are nonnegative as well as matrices which are positive semidefinite) with Coxeter groups as the underlying theme. For an exposition on Coxeter groups see Humphreys (1990).A Cozeter system consists of a pair (W, s); where W is a group and S is a set which consists of the generators of the group W. The elements of the set S have only the relations of the form (ss')m(s.) 1; where m(s, s) 1, m(s, s') = m(s,s) 2 2 for s s in S. In case no relation occurs for a …
