Abstract
Let be a central simple algebra over a number field with ring of integers , such that either the degree of the algebra , or and is not a totally definite quaternion algebra. Then strong approximation holds in , which allows us to describe the genus of an -order in terms of idelic quotients of the field . We consider orders that are tiled at every finite place of and use the Bruhat-Tits building for to give a geometric description for the local normalizers of . We also give explicit formulas and algorithms to compute the type number of . Our results generalize work of Vign\'{e}ras for orders in higher degree central simple algebras.
