Abstract
Let G be an almost simple reductive group with Weyl group W. Let B be a Borel subgroup of G. Let w be an elliptic element of W which has minimal length in its conjugacy class. We show that in almost all cases there exists a semisimple class in G whose intersection with BwB has dimension dim(B).
