Finite Geometries, Buildings, and Related Topics

by Robert A. Liebler and Ernest E. Shult

The theory of buildings was introduced by J. Tits in order to focus on geometric and combinatorial aspects of simple groups of Lie type. Since then, the theory has blossomed into an extremely active field of mathematical research having deep connections with topics as diverse as algebraic
groups, arithmetic groups, finite simple groups, and finite geometries, as well as with graph theory and other aspects of combinatorics. This volume is intended...
