Coxeter-Catalan Combinatorics
I will review some of the Catalan combinatorics associated to finite
reflection groups: nonnesting objects for affine Weyl groups,
noncrossing objects for
well-generated finite complex reflection groups, and the recent
construction using
braid varieties of rational noncrossing objects for finite Coxeter
groups. I will
conclude with the still-open problem of finding an explicit uniform
bijection between noncrossing and nonnesting objects.
