TL;DR: The authors introduced the theory of Coxeter groups in the context of the Lectures on Modern Mathematics Series at the Mathematical Sciences Center in Tsinghua University on May 10, 2013.
Abstract: These notes are intended as an introduction to the theory of Coxeter groups. They closely follow my talk in the Lectures on Modern Mathematics Series at the Mathematical Sciences Center in Tsinghua University on May 10, 2013. They were prepared from the beamer presentation which I used during my talk. AMS classification numbers. Primary: 20F55, 20F65

TL;DR: Using the theory of symmetric functions, a formula is found for r(w) when W is the symmetric group Sn and for the element w0 ∈ Sn of longest length and certain other w ∉ Sn the formula is particularly simple.
