Abstract

We offer a presentation for the Weyl group of an affine reflection system of type as well as a presentation for the so called hyperbolic Weyl group associated with an affine reflection system of type . Applying these presentations to extended affine Weyl groups, and using a description of the center of the hyperbolic Weyl group, we also give a new finite presentation for an extended ane Weyl group of type . Our presentation for the (hyperbolic) Weyl group of an affine reflection system of type is the first nontrivial presentation given in this generality, and can be considered as a model for other types.
