Abstract

Let PP and PP' be projective spaces having the same dimension nn assumed to be finite. Let Δ\Delta and Δ\Delta' be buildings of type AnA_n. We consider mappings of chambers of Δ\Delta into chambers of Δ\Delta' which send appartments to appartments. It is shown that shuch mappings are induced by strong embeddings of PP into PP' or into the dual space PP^{'*}.
