Extending a word property for twisted Coxeter systems

We prove two extensions of Hansson and Hultman's word property for certain analogues of reduced words associated to twisted involutions in Coxeter groups. Our first extension concerns the superset of such words in which terms with a natural commutativity property may be optionally primed. Our other extension involves variants of these words in which a defining minimal length condition is relaxed. In type A the sets considered are closely related to generating functions for Schur Q-functions and K-theoretic Schur P-functions.
