Minimal length elements of finite Coxeter groups

Name: Work Video:
Duration: 3 min 30 s
Description: We give a geometric proof that any minimal length element in a (twisted) conjugacy class of a finite Coxeter group W has remarkable properties with respect to conjugation, taking powers in the associated braid monoid and taking the centralizer in W.
