Abstract

In this paper, we show that the boundary Σ(W,S)\partial\Sigma(W,S) of a right-angled Coxeter system (W,S)(W,S) is minimal if and only if WS~W_{\tilde{S}} is irreducible, where WS~W_{\tilde{S}} is the minimum parabolic subgroup of finite index in WW. We also provide several applications and remarks. In particular, we obtain that for a right-angled Coxeter system (W,S)(W,S), the set {wwW,o(w)=}\{w^{\infty} | w\in W, o(w)=\infty\} is dense in the boundary Σ(W,S)\partial\Sigma(W,S).
