In this paper we show that a convex subcomplex of a spherical building of type E6, E7 or E8 is a subbuilding or the automorphisms of the subcomplex fix a point on it. Together with previous results of M\"uhlherr-Tits, and Leeb and the…
We prove that two dimensional convex subsets of spherical buildings are either buildings or have a center.
We prove that a convex subcomplex of a spherical building of type F4 or E6 is a subbuilding or the automorphisms of the subcomplex fix a point on it. Our approach is differential-geometric and based on the theory of metric spaces with…
We generalize a result of Serre's to show that if every vertex of some fixed type of a convex subcomplex of an irreducible spherical building has an opposite, then the subcomplex is completely reducible.
A completely reducible subcomplex of a spherical building is a spherical building.
Let B be a thick spherical building equipped with its natural CAT(1) metric and let M be a proper, convex subset of B. If M is open or if M is a closed ball of radius pi/2, then the maximal subcomplex supported by the complement of M is…
We study convex subsets of buildings, discuss some structural features and derive several characterizations of buildings.
For a Euclidean building $X$ of type $A_{2}$, we classify the 0-dimensional subbuildings $A$ of $\partial_{T}X$ that occur as the asymptotic boundary of closed convex subsets. In particular, we show that triviality of the holonomy of a…
In the present article we prove a fixed point theorem for reflections of compact convex sets and give a new characterization of state space of JB-algebras among compact convex sets. Namely they are exactly those compact convex sets which…
In this paper we study the structure of complex points of codimension 2 real submanifolds in complex $n$ dimensional manifolds. We show that the local structure of a complex point up to isotopy only depends on their type (either elliptic or…
In this paper we first extend from normed spaces to locally convex spaces some characterizations of denting points in convex sets. On the other hand, we also prove that in an infrabarreled locally convex space a point in a convex set is…
This study focuses on defining normal and strictly convex structures within Menger cone PM-space. It also presents a shared fixed point theorem for the existence of two self-mappings constructed on a strictly convex probabilistic cone…
Building sets were introduced in the study of wonderful compactifications of hyperplane arrangement complements and were later generalized to finite meet-semilattices. Convex geometries, the duals of antimatroids, offer a robust…
Similarly to the classic notion in $E^d$, a subset of a positive diameter below $\frac{\pi}{2}$ of a hemisphere of the sphere $S^d$ is called complete, provided adding any extra point increases its diameter. Complete sets are convex bodies…
This paper presents a selected tour through the theory and applications of lifts of convex sets. A lift of a convex set is a higher-dimensional convex set that projects onto the original set. Many convex sets have lifts that are…
A spherical set is called convex if for every pair of its points there is at least one minimal geodesic segment that joins these points and lies in the set. We prove that for n >= 3 a complete locally-convex (topological) immersion of a…
In this paper, by using admissible sets, we give some fixed point results for orbitally contractions which diminish the radius of invariant convex subsets and orbits. Furthermore, a characterization of the weak normal structure by the fixed…
We define the infinite dimensional simplex to be the closure of the convex hull of the standard basis vectors in R^infinity, and prove that this space has the 'fixed point property': any continuous function from the space into itself has a…
We prove that a closed convex subset $C$ of a real Hilbert space $X$ has the fixed point property for $(c)$-mappings if and only if $C$ is bounded. Some convergence results about the iterations are obtained.
We consider the set of points chosen randomly, independently and uniformly in the $d$-dimensional spherical layer. A set of points is called $1$-convex if all its points are vertices of the convex hull of this set. In \cite{3} an estimate…
