On epimorphisms of spherical Moufang buildings

Combinatorics 2012-02-24 v2

Abstract

In this paper we classify the the epimorphisms of irreducible spherical Moufang buildings (of rank at least 2) defined over a field. As an application we characterize indecomposable epimorphisms of these buildings as those epimorphisms arising from R-buildings.
