Titel: Buildings, galleries and beyond
Abstract: Originally introduced as analogs of symmetric spaces for groups over non-archimedian fields buildings have proven useful in various areas by now. In this talk I will introduce (Bruhat-Tits) buildings, highlight some combinatorial toolkits to study them. We will see how the geometry connects with the groups acting on buildings. This will relate to Grassmannians and flag varieties as well as to combinatorics of Coxeter groups.
