We construct model sets arising from cut and project schemes in Euclidean spaces whose associated Delone dynamical systems have positive toplogical entropy. The construction works both with windows that are proper and with windows that have…

The purpose of the paper is to present an alternative approach to unramified descent in Bruhat-Tits theory of reductive groups over nonarchimedean local fields. This approach appears to be conceptually simpler than the approach in the…

This paper provides a unified combinatorial framework to study orbits in certain affine flag varieties via the associated Bruhat-Tits buildings. We first formulate, for arbitrary affine buildings, the notion of a chimney retraction. This…

We introduce certain directed multigraphs with extra structure, called Weyl graphs, which model quotients of Tits buildings by type-preserving chamber-free group actions. Their advantage over complexes of groups, which are often used for…

These lectures are an informal elementary introduction to buildings. They are written for, and by, a non-expert. The aim is to get to the definition of a building and feel that it is an entirely natural thing. To maintain the lecture style…

In this work we present a principle which says that quasimorphisms can be obtained via "local data" of the group action on certain appropriate spaces. In a rough manner the principle says that instead of starting with a given group and try…

We introduce the notion of ideal triangle in the Bruhat-Tits building associated to a split group -- it is analogous to the usual notion of triangle, but one vertex is "at infinity" in a certain direction. We prove that the algebraic…

In this note, we construct torsion-free countable, amenable, weakly mixing groups, which answer a question of V. Bergelson. Some results related to verbal subgroups and crystallographic groups are also presented.

Buildings are beautiful mathematical objects tying a variety of subjects in algebra and geometry together in a very direct sense. They form a natural bridge to visualising more complex principles in group theory. As such they provide an…

A method to construct trihamiltonian extensions of a separable system is presented. The procedure is tested for systems, with a natural Hamiltonian, separable in classical sense in one of the four orthogonal separable coordinate systems of…

We consider precompact sequential and Fr\'echet group topologies and show that some natural constructions of such topologies always result in metrizable groups answering a question of D.~Dikranjan et al. We show that it is consistent that…

Building on the work of Avraham, Rubin, and Shelah, we aim to build a variant of the Fra\"iss\'e theory for uncountable models built from finite submodels. With this aim, we generalize the notion of an increasing set of reals to other…

We apply the theory of branches in Bruhat-Tits trees, developed in previous works by the second author and others, to the study of two dimensional representations of finite groups over the ring of integers of a number field. We provide a…

In this article, we construct new families of Ramanujan complexes with local structure distinct from all previously known examples. Our approach is based on unitary groups over number fields, more specifically on what we call super-definite…

We relate some features of Bruhat-Tits buildings and their compactifications to tropical geometry. If G is a semisimple group over a suitable non-Archimedean field, the stabilizers of points in the Bruhat-Tits building of G and in some of…

Under Martin's Axiom we construct a Boolean countably compact topological group whose square is not countably pracompact.

We give a generalization of subspace codes by means of codes of modules over finite commutative chain rings. We define a new class of Sperner codes and use results from extremal combinatorics to prove the optimality of such codes in…

For all algebraic groups over non-Archimedean local fields, the bounded cohomology vanishes. This follows from the corresponding statement for automorphism groups of Bruhat--Tits buildings, which hinges on the solution to the flatmate…

We describe the stabilizers of points in the Bruhat-Tits building of the group SL with tropical geometry. There are several compactifications of this building associated to algebraic representations of SL. We show that the fans used to…

We construct uncountably many discrete groups of type $FP$; in particular we construct groups of type $FP$ that do not embed in any finitely presented group. We compute the ordinary, $\ell^2$- and compactly-supported cohomology of these…
