On the maximally clustered elements of Coxeter groups

We continue the study of the maximally clustered elements for simply laced Coxeter groups which were recently introduced by Losonczy. Such elements include as a special case the freely braided elements of Losonczy and the author, which in turn constitute a superset of the $iji$-avoiding elements of Fan. Our main result is to classify the MC-finite Coxeter groups, namely those Coxeter groups having finitely many maximally clustered elements. Remarkably, any simply laced Coxeter group having finitely many $iji$-avoiding elements also turns out to be MC-finite.
