Generalized affine buildings for semisimple algebraic groups over real closed fields

Group Theory 2026-01-07 v1 Geometric Topology

Abstract

We use real algebraic geometry to construct an affine Λ\Lambda-building BB associated to the F\mathbb{F}-points of a semisimple algebraic group, where F\mathbb{F} is a valued real closed field. We characterize the spherical building at infinity and the local building at a base point. We compute stabilizers of various subsets of BB and obtain group decompositions.
