Abstract: Let

(W, S)

be a finite Coxeter system acting by reflections on an

m a t h b b R

-Euclidean space with simple roots

D e l t a = a_{s} | s i n S

of the same length and fundamental weights

D e l t a^{*} = v_{s} | s i n S

. We set

M (e) = s u m_{s i n S} k a p p a_{s} v_{s}

,

k a p p a_{s} > 0

, and for

w i n W

we set

M (w) = w (M (e))

. The permutahedron

P e r m (W)

is the convex hull of the set

M (w) | w i n W

. Given a Coxeter element

c i n W

, we have defined in a previous work a generalized associahedron

A s s o_{c} (W)

whose normal fan is the corresponding

c

-Cambrian fan

F_{c}

defined by N. Reading. By construction,

A s s o_{c} (W)

is obtained from

P e r m (W)

by removing some halfspaces according to a rule prescribed by

c

. In this work, we classify the isometry classes of these realizations. More precisely, for

(W, S)

an irreducible finite Coxeter system and

c, c^{'}

two Coxeter elements in

W

, we have that

A s s o_{c} (W)

and

A s s o_{c^{'}} (W)

are isometric if and only if

m u (c^{'}) = c

or

m u (c^{'}) = w_{0} c^{- 1} w_{0}

for

m u

an automorphism of the Coxeter graph of

W

such that

k a p p a_{s} = k a p p a_{m u (s)}

for all

s i n S

. As a byproduct, we classify the isometric Cambrian fans of

W

.
