We prove that a right angled Coxeter group with chromatic number n can be embedded in a bilipschitz way into the product of n locally finite trees. We give applications of this result to various embedding problems and determine the hyperbolic rank of products of exponentially branching trees.

An odd Coxeter group $W$ is one which admits a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ for which all the exponents $m_{ij}$ are either odd or infinity. The paper investigates the family of odd Coxeter groups whose associated labeled graphs $mathcal{V}_{(W,S)}$ are trees. It is known that two Coxeter groups in this family are isomorphic if and only if they admit Coxeter systems having the same rank and the same multiset of finite exponents. In particular, each group in this family is isomorphic to a group that admits a Coxeter system whose associated labeled graph is a star shaped tree. We give the complete description of the automorphism group of this group, and derive a sufficient condition for the splitting of the automorphism group as a semi-direct product of the inner and the outer automorphism groups. As applications, we prove that Coxeter groups in this family satisfy the $R_infty$-property and are (co)-Hopfian. We compare structural properties, automorphism groups, $R_infty$-property and (co)-Hopfianity of a special odd Coxeter group whose only finite exponent is three with the braid group and the twin group.
We use probabilistic methods to prove that many Coxeter groups are incoherent. In particular, this holds for Coxeter groups of uniform exponent > 2 with sufficiently many generators.
Despite the significance of the notion of parabolic closures in Coxeter groups of finite ranks, the parabolic closure is not guaranteed to exist as a parabolic subgroup in a general case. In this paper, first we give a concrete example to clarify that the parabolic closure of even an irreducible reflection subgroup of countable rank does not necessarily exist as a parabolic subgroup. Then we propose a generalized notion of locally parabolic closure by introducing a notion of locally parabolic subgroups, which involves parabolic ones as a special case, and prove that the locally parabolic closure always exists as a locally parabolic subgroup. It is a subgroup of parabolic closure, and we give another example to show that the inclusion may be strict in general. Our result suggests that locally parabolic closure has more natural properties and provides more information than parabolic closure. We also give a result on maximal locally finite, locally parabolic subgroups in Coxeter groups, which generalizes a similar well-known fact on maximal finite parabolic subgroups.
We show that for a large class $mathcal{W}$ of Coxeter groups the following holds: Given a group $W_Gamma$ in $mathcal{W}$, the automorphism group ${rm Aut}(W_Gamma)$ virtually surjects onto $W_Gamma$. In particular, the group ${rm Aut}(G_Gamma)$ is virtually indicable and therefore does not satisfy Kazhdans property (T). Moreover, if $W_Gamma$ is not virtually abelian, then the group ${rm Aut}(W_Gamma)$ is large.
