Descent of affine buildings - I. Large minimal angles

Abstract: 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 concerning the existence of affine buildings arising from such groups defined over a (skew) field with a complete valuation, as proposed by Jacques Tits.This first part lays the foundations for our approach and deals with the 'large minimal angle' case.

“…Let us recapitulate what we already had obtained in Section 5.2 of Part I ( [8]). We there constructed a subset Λ ′ of the completion of Λ, together with a set of injections from an Euclidean space (which is in the present case the real line) to this set.…”

“…Applying the methods from Section 5.2 of [8] to I E,ω (G) and the Galois involution acting on it, one obtains a subset Λ ′ of the points of I E,ω (G). We make the special choice of fixed point as outlined in Remark 5.5 of [8]. This has as advantage that isometries of I E,ω (G) centralizing the Galois involution stabilize Λ ′ .…”
