In this talk\, we give a brief histor y and summary of recent developments in this area\, and we introduce the t heory of regular partitions of Coxeter groups. We show that regular partit ions are essentially equivalent to the class of automata (not necessarily finite state) recognising the language of reduced words in the Coxeter gro up and explain how it gives a fundamentally free construction of automata. As a further application\, we prove that each cone type in a Coxeter grou p has a unique minimal length representative. This result can be seen as a n analogue of Shi’s classical result that each component of the Shi arrang ement of an affine Coxeter group has a unique minimal length element.
