We prove an analogue of Kostants convexity theorem for thick affine buildings and give an application for groups with affine BN-pair. Recall that there are two natural retractions of the affine building onto a fixed apartment A: The…
This paper determines the relationship between the geometry of retractions and the combinatorics of folded galleries for arbitrary affine buildings, and so provides a unified framework to study orbits in affine flag varieties. We introduce…
We construct rank 2 thick nondiscrete affine buildings associated with an arbitrary finite dihedral group.
We prove equivalence of certain axiom sets for affine buildings. Along the lines a purely combinatorial proof of the existence of a spherical building at infinity is given. As a corollary we obtain that ``being an affine building'' is…
We prove an analog of the base change functor of \Lambda-trees in the setting of generalized affine buildings. The proof is mainly based on local and global combinatorics of the associated spherical buildings. As an application we obtain…
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…
In this paper we will first introduce the notion of affine structures on a ringed space and then obtain several properties. Affine structures on a ringed space, arising mainly from complex analytical spaces of algebraic schemes over number…
This article deals with harmonic analysis on affine buildings. Its main goal is to construct suitable kernels associated to a discrete multitemporal wave equations on the latter spaces, the long-standing motivation being to contribute to…
We give a proof of a phenomenon conjectured in our former article: "Beltrami forms, affine surfaces and the Schwarz-Christoffel formula: a worked out example of straightening". We also start an abstract discussion of the notion of limits of…
In this two-part paper we prove an existence result for affine buildings arising from exceptional algebraic reductive groups. Combined with earlier results on classical groups, this gives a complete and positive answer to the conjecture…
We give an abstract definition of affine hovels which generalizes the definition of affine buildings (eventually non simplicial) given by Jacques Tits and includes the hovels built by Stephane Gaussent and the author for some Kac-Moody…
In a Hilbert space, we study the strong convergence of alternating projections between two inconsistent affine subspaces with varying relaxation on one side. New convergence results are obtained by seeing the alternating projections as a…
We study the open refined topological string amplitudes using the refined topological vertex. We determine the refinement of holonomies necessary to describe the boundary conditions of open amplitudes (which in particular satisfy the…
We use real algebraic geometry to construct an affine $\Lambda$-building $B$ associated to the $\mathbb{F}$-points of a semisimple algebraic group, where $\mathbb{F}$ is a valued real closed field. We characterize the spherical building at…
In this paper we are interested in defining affine structures on discrete quadrangular surfaces of the affine three-space. We introduce, in a constructive way, two classes of such surfaces, called respectively indefinite and definite…
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.
We develop a method for calculating the persistence landscapes of affine fractals using the parameters of the corresponding transformations. Given an iterated function system of affine transformations that satisfies a certain compatibility…
This paper presents the methodology for the system requirements and architecture w.r.t. their decomposition and refinement. It also introduces ideas of refinement layers and of refinement-based verification.
Differentiable structure ensures that many of the basics of classical convex analysis extend naturally from Euclidean space to Riemannian manifolds. Without such structure, however, extensions are more challenging. Nonetheless, in…
We prove that if a framework of a graph is neighborhood affine rigid in $d$-dimensions (or has the stronger property of having an equilibrium stress matrix of rank $n-d-1$) then it has an affine flex (an affine, but non Euclidean, transform…
