We classify thick irreducible 3-spherical twin buildings of rank at least 3 in which every panel contains at least 6 chambers. Together with the Main result of [11] we obtain a classification of thick irreducible 3-spherical twin buildings.

A twin building consists of two buildings that are twinned by a codistance function. We prove that the local structure of a twin building uniquely determines the two buildings up to isomorphism. This has been known for twin buildings…

We show that every automorphism of a thick twin building interchanging the halves of the building maps some residue to an opposite one. Furthermore we show that no automorphism of a locally finite 2-spherical twin building of rank at least…

We introduce the notion of a wall-connected twin building and show that the local-to-global principle holds for these twin buildings. As each twin building satisfying Condition (co) (introduced in [7]) is wall-connected, we obtain a…

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…

We show that, if a building is endowed with its complete system of apartments, and if each panel is contained in at least four chambers, then the intersection of two apartments can be any convex subcomplex contained in an apartment. This…

Suppose that \Delta, \Delta' are two buildings each arising from a semisimpe algebraic group over a field, a topological field in the former case, and that for both the buildings the Coxeter diagram has no isolated nodes. We give conditions…

Let $\Delta$ be a spherical building each of whose irreducible components is infinite, has rank at least 2 and satisfies the Moufang condition. We show that $\Delta$ can be given the structure of a topological building that is compact and…

We prove that, for every Coxeter diagram $D$ with no rank $3$ residues of spherical type and such that $D$ has not only edges labelled by $2$, the space of countable (Tits) buildings of type $D$ is Borel complete, that is, classifying…

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 that two dimensional convex subsets of spherical buildings are either buildings or have a center.

The purpose of this paper is to verify a conjecture of Gross under mild hypothesis: all reduced, separated, and excellent schemes have the resolution property away from a closed subset of codimension at least three. Our technique uses…

In this paper, we characterize all links in the 3-sphere with bridge number at least three that have a bridge sphere of distance two. We show that a link L has a bridge sphere of distance at most two then it falls into at least one of three…

We prove the following rigidity results. Coarse equivalences between Euclidean buildings preserve spherical buildings at infinity. If all irreducible factors have dimension at least two, then coarsely equivalent Euclidean buildings are…

We prove that a local ring $R$ of embedding codepth at most 3 has at most two semidualizing complexes up to shift-isomorphism, namely, $R$ itself and a dualizing $R$-complex if one exists.

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 prove that if X is a spherical t-design and s-distance set with $t\geq 2s-3$, then X has the structure of Q-polynomial association scheme of class s. Also, we describe the parameters of the association scheme.

A cobordism between links in thickened surfaces consists of a surface $ S $ and a $3$-manifold $M $, with $ S $ properly embedded in $ M \times I $. We show that there exist links in thickened surfaces such that if $(S,M) $ is a cobordism…

Buildings have been introduced by J. Tits in order to study semi-simple algebraic groups from a geometrical point of view. One of the most important results in the theory of buildings is the classification of irreducible spherical buildings…

We prove an affine analog of Scharlau's reduction theorem for spherical buildings. To be a bit more precise let $X$ be a euclidean building with spherical building $\partial X$ at infinity. Then there exists a euclidean building $\bar X$…
