The Strong Exchange Condition: if $\omega$ is a reduced word for $w$ and $t$ is a reflection such that $\ell(wt) < \ell(w)$, then $wt$ is obtained from $\omega$ by deleting one letter.
Instances For
The reduced sublist property: every word $\omega$ admits a reduced sublist $\tau$ with the same product. This is equivalent to the deletion condition.
Instances For
Case analysis for a sublist of $l ++ [s]$: it is either a sublist of $l$ or has the form $\sigma' ++ [s]$ for some sublist $\sigma'$ of $l$.
Tits' subexpression theorem (forward direction): if $v \le w$ in the Bruhat order and $\omega$ is a reduced word for $w$, then $v$ is the product of some sublist of $\omega$.
Tits' subexpression theorem (backward direction): if $\omega$ is a reduced word for $w$ and $v$ is the product of some sublist of $\omega$, then $v \le w$ in the Bruhat order.
Tits' subexpression theorem: $v \le w$ in the Bruhat order if and only if $v$ is the product of some sublist of a (any) reduced word $\omega$ for $w$.
The strict Bruhat order: $v < w$ iff $v \le w$ and $v \ne w$.
Instances For
Bruhat covering lemma: given a Bruhat cover $v < w$ with $i$ not a right descent of $v$ and $v s_i \ne w$, both $w < w s_i$ and $v s_i < w s_i$ hold in the Bruhat order.
Existence of an immediate Bruhat predecessor: for any $v < w$ there exists $u$ with $v \le u < w$ and $\ell(u) + 1 = \ell(w)$.
The chain property for the Bruhat order: every strict inequality $v < w$ extends to a saturated chain $v = u_0 < u_1 < \cdots < u_{n+1} = w$ in which each $\ell(u_{i+1}) = \ell(u_i) + 1$.
