Abstract: We classify the elements of $W(ilde{A}_n)$ by giving a canonical reduced expression for each, using basic tools among which affine length. We give some direct consequences for such a canonical form: a description of left multiplication by a simple reflection, a study of the right descent set, and a proof that the affine length is preserved along the tower of affine Coxeter groups of type $ildeA$, which implies in particular that the corresponding tower of affine Hecke algebras is a faithful tower.
