Factorization problems in complex reflection groups

Abstract. We enumerate factorizations of a Coxeter element into arbitrary factors in the complex reflection groups G(d,1,n) (the wreath product of the symmetric group with a cyclic group) and its subgroup G(d,d,n), applying combinatorial and algebraic methods, respectively. After a change of basis, the coefficients that appear are the same as those that appear in the corresponding enumeration in the symmetric group.
