We describe some buildings related to complex Kac-Moody groups. First we describe the spherical building of SLn(C) (i.e. the projective geometry PG(Cn)) and its Veronese representation. Next we recall the construction of the affine building associated to a discrete valuation on the rational function field C(z)C(z). Then …

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 in the affine building and their basic properties. Then we study the geometry of …

The relationship between minimal algebraic Kac-Moody groups and twin buildings is well known as is the relationship between formal completions in one direction and affine buildings. Nevertheless, as the completion of a Kac-Moody group in one direction destroys the opposite BN-pair, there exists no longer a twin buildin…

We give a Thurston-like definition for laminations on higher Teichmuller spaces associated to a surface SS and a semi-simple group GG for GSLmG-SL_m and PGLmPGL_m. The case G=SL2G=SL_2 or PGL2PGL_2 corresponds to the classical theory of laminations. Our construction involves positive configurations of points in the affine bui…

Let G be a simple algebraic group. Labelled trivalent graphs called webs can be used to product invariants in tensor products of minuscule representations.

One can realize higher laminations as positive configurations of points in the affine building. The duality pairings of Fock and Goncharov give pairings between higher laminations for two Langlands dual groups GG and GG^{\vee}. These pairings are a generalization of the intersection pairing between measured laminatio…

We study the possibility of applying a finite-dimensionality argument in order to address parts of the Baum-Connes conjecture for finitely generated linear groups.

Subspace clustering refers to the problem of clustering high-dimensional data into a union of low-dimensional subspaces. Current subspace clustering approaches are usually based on a two-stage framework. In the first stage, an affinity matrix is generated from data. In the second one, spectral clustering is applied on …

Let F\mathbb F be a real closed field. We define the notion of a maximal framing for a representation of the fundamental group of a surface with values in Sp(2n,F){\rm Sp}(2n,\mathbb F). We show that ultralimits of maximal representations in Sp(2n,R){\rm Sp}(2n,\mathbb R) admit such a framing, and that all maximal framed represen…
