Geometric approach to classical and exceptional groups of Lie type has been quite successful and has led to the deveopment of the concept of buildings and polar spaces. The latter have been characterized by simple systems of axioms with a…

Let G be a semisimple quasi-split group defined over a global function field. We express the relative Tamagawa number of G in terms of local data including the number of types of special vertices in one orbit of the Bruhat-Tits building…

We consider quotients of the Bruhat-Tits building associated to the projective linear groups of dimension $d>2$ over the function field $\mathbb F_q(t)$ by a non-uniform lattice $\Gamma$ which is a congruence subgroup in the non-uniform…

We propose a new approach to constructing semistable integral models of hypersurfaces over a discretely valued complete field K. For each stable hypersurface X over K we define a continuous stability function on the Bruhat-Tits building of…

Speyer recognized that matroids encode the same data as a special class of tropical linear spaces and Shaw interpreted tropically certain basic matroid constructions; additionally, Frenk developed the perspective of tropical linear spaces…

We construct the Bruhat-Tits stratification of the reduced basic locus of regular ramified unitary Rapoport-Zink spaces of signature $(n\!-\!1,1)$ at vertex-stabilizer level. To study the Bruhat-Tits strata, we introduce strata…

In \cite{FGLNP}, Fox, Gromov, Lafforgue, Naor and Pach, in a respond to a question of Gromov \cite{G}, constructed bounded degree geometric expanders, namely, simplical complexes having the affine overlapping property. Their explicit…

We call a non-discrete Euclidean building a Bruhat-Tits space if its automorphism group contains a subgroup that induces the subgroup generated by all the root groups of a root datum of the building at infinity. This is the class of…

The tropicalization of a linear space over a non-archimedean field is a tropical linear space. In this paper, we present a method for computing the tropicalization of any lattice over a valuation ring. The resulting tropical semimodule is…

Let $X$ be a locally finite irreducible affine building of dimension $\geq 2$ and $\Gamma \leq \mathrm{Aut}(X)$ be a discrete group acting cocompactly. The goal of this paper is to address the following question: When is $\Gamma$ linear?…

We construct the Bruhat-Tits stratification of the ramified unitary splitting Rapoport-Zink space, with the level being the stabilizer of a vertex lattice. To determine certain local properties of the Bruhat-Tits strata, we develop a theory…

We introduce and study different compactifications of the moduli space of $n$ distinct weighted labeled points in a flag of affine spaces. We construct these spaces via the weighted and generalized Fulton-MacPherson compactifications of…

Inspired by Manin's approach towards a geometric interpretation of Arakelov theory at infinity, we interpret in this paper non-Archimedean local intersection numbers of linear cycles in $P^{n-1}$ with the combinatorial geometry of the…

Positive configurations of points in the affine building were introduced in \cite{Le} as the basic object needed to define higher laminations. We start by giving a self-contained, elementary definition of positive configurations of points…

We define a formal framework for the study of algebras of type Max-plus, Min-Plus, tropical algebras, and more generally algebras over a commutative idempotent semi-field. This work is motivated by the increasingly diversified use of these…

We develop the theory of algebraic groups over real closed fields and apply the results to construct a geometric object $\mathcal{B}$ and to prove that $\mathcal{B}$ is an affine $\Lambda$-building. We use a model theoretic transfer…

We develop a number of general techniques for comparing analytifications and tropicalizations of algebraic varieties. Our basic results include a projection formula for tropical multiplicities and a generalization of the Sturmfels-Tevelev…

In this paper, we give an equivariant compactification of the space PFlat(S) of homothety classes of half-translation structures on a compact, connected, orientable surface S. We introduce the space PMix(S) of homothety classes of mixed…

We revisit the Universal Approximation Theorem(UAT) through the lens of the tropical geometry of neural networks and introduce a constructive, geometry-aware initialization for sigmoidal multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs). Tropical geometry…

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…
