parabolic_subgroup(W::WeylGroup, vec::Vector{<:Integer}) -> WeylGroup, Map{WeylGroup, WeylGroup}
Returns two objects: The subgroup `H` of `W` generated by `gens(W)[vec]`, which is itself a `WeylGroup`, and the embedding of `H` into `W`.

parabolic_subgroup(W::WeylGroup, vec::Vector{<:Integer}, w::WeylGroupElem) -> WeylGroup, Map{WeylGroup, WeylGroup}
Returns two objects: The subgroup `H` of `W` generated by `[inv(w)*u*w for u in gens(W)[vec]]`, which is itself a `WeylGroup`, and the embedding of `H` into `W`.

irreducible_factors(W::WeylGroup) -> Vector{WeylGroup}, Vector{Map{WeylGroup, WeylGroup}}, Vector{Map{WeylGroup, WeylGroup}}
Returns a triple (`H`, `emb`, `proj`) where `H` is a vector of the irreducible subgroups of `W` and `emb` (resp. `proj`) is the vector of the embeddings (resp. projections) of the irreducible subgroups into `W` (resp. of `W` onto the irreducible subgroups).

In the same run, one could also extend inner_direct_product to Weyl groups.
Is there anything wrong with that (naming conventions, mathematics, input and return types, ...)? If not, I will prepare a PR.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Together with inner_direct_product for PermGroups, this should allow for a smooth extension of #4478 to reducible types.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
For the parabolic subgroups, we need to (at some point in the future) decide, if we introduce a type of subgroups of Weyl groups or we don't. In the former case, these functions should return something of the subgroup type. But that should not hold you back with implementing, just put them into experimental for the moment, please.
The group function naming etc. I would leave to @fingolfin as he knows more about that.
Just a note about implementation: You probably need to construct everything based on Cartan matrices, as root systems and Weyl groups are intrinsically intertwined in the implementation.
(I use the terminology of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_subgroup_of_a_reflection_group#In_Coxeter_groups and [Humphreys, "Reflection groups and Coxeter groups"] for parabolic subgroups of a Weyl group.)
