Lattice structure of Weyl groups via representation theory of   preprojective algebras
  This paper studies the combinatorics of lattice congruences of the weak order on a finite Weyl group $W$, using representation theory of the corresponding preprojective algebra $\Pi$. Natural bijections are constructed between important objects including join-irreducible congruences, join-irreducible (respectively, meet-irreducible) elements of $W$, indecomposable $\tau$-rigid (respectively, $\tau^-$-rigid) modules and layers of $\Pi$. The lattice-theoretically natural labeling of the Hasse quiver by join-irreducible elements of $W$ is shown to coincide with the algebraically natural labelling by layers of $\Pi$. We show that layers of $\Pi$ are nothing but bricks (or equivalently stones, or 2-spherical modules). The forcing order on join-irreducible elements of $W$ (arising from the study of lattice congruences) is described algebraically in terms of the doubleton extension order. We give a combinatorial description of indecomposable $\tau^-$-rigid modules for type $A$ and $D$.
