Abstract

We consider quotients of the Bruhat-Tits building associated to the projective linear groups of dimension d>2d>2 over the function field Fq(t)\mathbb F_q(t) by a non-uniform lattice Γ\Gamma which is a congruence subgroup in the non-uniform lattice PGLd(R) PGL_{d}(R), where R=Fq[1t]R=\mathbb F_q[\frac{1}{t}]. We determine a fundamental domain and demonstrate that the quotient, while not cofinite, is at least of finite covolume. We do the case d=3d=3 in considerable detail.
