The imprimitive unitary reflection group G(m, p, n) acts on the vector space V =Cn naturally. The symmetric group Sk acts on kV by permuting the tensor product factors. We show that the algebra of all matrices on kV commuting with G(m, p, n) is generated by Sk and three other elements. This is a generalization of Jones’s results for the symmetric group case [J].
