We study parabolic aligned elements associated with the type-B Coxeter group and the so-called linear Coxeter element. These elements were introduced algebraically in (Mühle and Williams, 2019) for parabolic quotients of finite Coxeter groups and were characterized by a certain forcing condition on inversions. We focus on the type-B case and give a combinatorial model for these elements in terms of pattern avoidance. Moreover, we describe an equivalence relation on parabolic quotients of the type-B Coxeter group whose equivalence classes are indexed by the aligned elements. We prove that this equivalence relation extends to a congruence relation for the weak order. The resulting quotient lattice is the type-B analogue of the parabolic Tamari lattice introduced for type A in (Mühle and Williams, 2019). These lattices have not appeared in the literature before. As work in progress, we will also talk about various combinatorial models and bijections between them. Joint work with Henri Mühle and Jean-Christophe Novelli.
