Abstract: 

Abstract : In this talk, I will present a definitive solution to the problem of describing conjugacy classes in arbitrary Coxeter groups in terms of cyclic shifts. After motivating the problem and reviewing its history, I will explain the key idea, of geometric nature, behind the proof of its solution.
