Let $W$ be an extended affine Weyl group. We prove that minimal length elements $w_{\co}$ of any conjugacy class $\co$ of $W$ satisfy some special properties, generalizing results of Geck and Pfeiffer \cite{GP} on finite Weyl groups. We…

The limit weak order on an affine Weyl group was introduced by Lam and Pylyavskyy in their study of total positivity for loop groups. They showed that in the case of the affine symmetric group the minimal elements of this poset coincide…

Let W be an Iwahori-Weyl group of a connected reductive group G over a non-archimedean local field. I prove that if w is an element of W that does not act on the corresponding apartment of G by a translation then one can apply to w a…

This paper studies affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties $X_{\tw}(b)$ in the affine flag variety of a quasi-split tamely ramified group. We describe the geometric structure of $X_{\tw}(b)$ for a minimal length element $\tw$ in the conjugacy…

In this paper, we review the properties and representations of the Weyl groups relevant in the study of discrete integrable systems. Previously in \cite{jns4, Shi:19}, properties of Weyl groups of type $ADE$ (known as simply-laced) were…

We give a geometric proof that minimal length elements in a (twisted) conjugacy class of a finite Coxeter group $W$ have remarkable properties with respect to conjugation, taking powers in the associated Braid group and taking centralizer…

Extended affine root systems appear as the root systems of extended affine Lie algebras. A subclass of extended affine root systems, whose elements are called ``minimal" turns out to be of special interest mostly because of the geometric…

This survey article, is written as an extended note and supplement of my lectures in the current developments in mathematics conference in 2015. We discuss some recent developments on the conjugacy classes of affine Weyl groups and $p$-adic…

For an infinite Coxeter system, one can extend the weak right order to the set of infinite reduced words. This is called limit weak order. In [Transformation Groups 18(1), 2013, 179-231], Lam and Pylyavskyy showed that for affine Weyl…

Let w be an elliptic element of the Weyl group of a connected reductive group G. Let X be the set of pairs (g,B) where g is an element of G, B is a Borel subgroup of G and B,gBg^{-1} are in relative position w. Then G acts naturally on X.…

Let G be a reductive group over an algebraically closed field whose characteristic is not a bad prime for G. Let w be an elliptic element of the Weyl group which has minimal length in its conjugacy class. We show that there exists a unique…

There is a well-known presentation for finite and affine Weyl groups called the {\it presentation by conjugation}. Recently, it has been proved that this presentation holds for certain sub-classes of extended affine Weyl groups, the Weyl…

In this work, we study the concept of the length function and some of its combinatorial properties for the class of extended affine root systems of type $A_1$. We introduce a notion of root basis for these root systems, and using a unique…

For a Weyl group W, we give a simple closed formula (valid on elliptic conjugacy classes) for the character of the representation of W in each A-isotypic component of the full homology of a Springer fiber. We also give a formula (valid…

Let $W_a$ be an affine Weyl group and $\eta:W_a\longrightarrow W_0$ be the natural projection to the corresponding finite Weyl group. We say that $w\in W_a$ has finite Coxeter part if $\eta(w)$ is conjugate to a Coxeter element of $W_0$.…

We study the minimal length elements in some double cosets of Coxeter groups and use them to study Lusztig's $G$-stable pieces and the generalization of $G$-stable pieces introduced by Lu and Yakimov. We also use them to study the minimal…

We define and study a correspondence between the set of distinguished G^0-conjugacy classes in a fixed connected component of a reductive group G (with G^0 almost simple) and the set of (twisted) elliptic conjugacy classes in the Weyl…

The excess of an element $w$ of a finite Coxeter group $W$ is the minimal value of $l(x) + l(y) - l(w)$, where $x$, $y$ are elements of $W$ such that $x^2 = y^2 = 1$ and $w = xy$. Every element of a finite Coxeter group is either an…

We give a new proof of the fact that affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties for an algebraic group of adjoint type, associated with superbasic elements, are of finite type. The proof uses a property of the associated Hecke algebra, which we…

We prove that the Deligne-Lusztig varieties associated to elements of the Weyl group which are of minimal length in their twisted class are affine. Our proof differs from the proof of He and Orlik-Rapoport and it is inspired by the case of…
