Topological hypotheses on the fraction field $k$ of a complete DVR: the valuation ring $\mathfrak{o}$ is open and compact in $k$, its maximal ideal is open, $k$ is a $T_1$ topological ring. This is the package of assumptions needed to make the Iwahori subgroup compact-open in $SL_V(k)$.

Instances For
An $SL_V$-action on the building is strongly transitive with respect to an apartment system $\mathcal A$ if for any two flagged pairs $(C_1, A_1)$ and $(C_2, A_2)$ (maximal simplex in an apartment) some $g$ carries the first to the second.
Instances For
The Iwahori subgroup is open in $SL_n(k)$: it is the intersection over finitely many entries of preimages of open sets ($\mathfrak{o}$ or $\mathfrak{m}$) under continuous entry projections.
The Iwahori subgroup is closed in $SL_n(k)$: any open subgroup of a topological group is automatically closed.
The Iwahori subgroup is compact in $SL_n(k)$, since a closed subset of a compact set in a topological group is compact.
The image of the valuation ring embedding $\mathfrak{o} \hookrightarrow k$ as a subring of $k$.
Instances For
An element of $k$ lies in the image of $\mathfrak{o}$ iff it is integral.
The maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ is closed under addition.
The maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ absorbs multiplication by $\mathfrak{o}$ on the left: $\mathfrak{o} \cdot \mathfrak{m} \subseteq \mathfrak{m}$.
The maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ absorbs multiplication by $\mathfrak{o}$ on the right: $\mathfrak{m} \cdot \mathfrak{o} \subseteq \mathfrak{m}$.
Zero lies in $\mathfrak{m}$.
The negation of an integral element is integral.
A finite sum of integral elements is integral.
A finite sum of elements in $\mathfrak{m}$ is in $\mathfrak{m}$.
A finite product of integral elements is integral.
Membership in the Iwahori set unwound entrywise.
Every entry of an Iwahori matrix is integral, since each entry is either in $\mathfrak{m} \subseteq \mathfrak{o}$ or directly in $\mathfrak{o}$.
The subdiagonal entries of an Iwahori matrix lie in the maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$.
The sign of any permutation, viewed in $k$, is integral.
An integer scalar multiple of an integral element is integral.
Replacing the $j$-th row of an Iwahori matrix by the standard basis vector $e_i$ still gives a matrix with all entries integral.
Every entry of the adjugate of an Iwahori matrix is integral.
The strictly-below-diagonal entries of the adjugate of an Iwahori matrix lie in $\mathfrak{m}$, the key step in showing the Iwahori set is closed under inversion.
The Iwahori set is a subgroup of $SL_n(k)$: it contains the identity and is closed under multiplication and inversion. The inversion step uses the formula $g^{-1} = \mathrm{adj}(g)/\det g$ and the adjugate bounds above.
The valuation ring $\mathfrak{o}$ is open in $k$ under the topological assumptions.
The maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ is open in $k$ under the topological assumptions.
The Iwahori subgroup lies inside the compact set of matrices with all entries in $\mathfrak{o}$, namely $SL_n(k) \cap M_n(\mathfrak{o})$.
The Iwahori subgroup of $SL_n(k)$ is compact-open in the natural topology on $SL_n(k)$. This is the crucial ingredient for applying strong-transitivity methods to the Bruhat-Tits building.
Finite subcomplex decomposition: any subcomplex $Y$ of the building that contains the fundamental chamber $C_0$ can be written as a finite union of chambers, each obtained as a $G$-translate of $C_0$.
The pointwise stabiliser of the fundamental alcove (the subset of $A_0$ fixed by all of $B$) is contained in the Iwahori subgroup $B$.
The fundamental alcove $C_0$ is nonempty: there is at least one simplex in $A_0$ that is fixed by every element of the Iwahori subgroup.
Packaging step for Theorem 17.7: from an $SL_V$-action, a compact-open Iwahori $B$, and a maximal apartment system, produce the fundamental alcove $C_0$, the exhaustion $(Y_i)$ of every apartment $A'$, a $B$-conjugacy chain $(A_i, b_i)$ taking each $Y_i$ inside $A_0$, openness of the pointwise fixers, and apartment-mapping surjectivity.
Within an apartment $A_F$ coming from a frame $F$, the group $SL_V(k)$ acts transitively on (maximal-chamber, $A_F$) pairs, preserving the apartment.
$SL_V(k)$ acts transitively on the maximal apartment system: every apartment in the system can be sent to the reference apartment $A_0$ by some element of $SL_V(k)$.
The identity element acts trivially on apartments.
The action on apartments respects group multiplication.
Every apartment in a maximal apartment system comes from a frame: $A = A_F$ for some frame $F$ of $V$. This follows from frame-apartment transitivity of $SL_V$.
Chamber transitivity within any maximal apartment: for any two maximal chambers in any apartment of the system, some $g \in SL_V$ takes the first to the second while fixing the apartment setwise.
Strong transitivity follows formally from apartment-transitivity together with chamber-transitivity within each apartment: any flagged pair $(C_1, A_1)$ can be moved to any other $(C_2, A_2)$.
Main strong-transitivity theorem for $SL_V$: the action of $SL_V(k)$ on the Bruhat-Tits building of type $\tilde A_{n-1}$ over a complete DVR is strongly transitive on every maximal apartment system.
Abstract lemma: if a $G$-stable apartment system $\mathcal{A} \subseteq \mathrm{max\_apts}$ contains some apartment $A_0$ that the $G$-action sends to every maximal apartment, then $\mathcal{A} = \mathrm{max\_apts}$.
Specialisation of the abstract maximality lemma to the $SL_V$ apartment action: a stable, contained apartment system that intersects every $SL_V$-orbit of $A_0$ in the maximal system actually equals the maximal system.
The canonical apartment system: apartments $A_F$ indexed by frames $F$ of $V$. This is the maximal apartment system for the Bruhat-Tits building of $SL_V$.
Instances For
A family of apartments is an apartment system if every member arises from a frame and any two simplices lie together in some apartment of the system.
Instances For
An apartment system is maximal if it is an apartment system and contains every other apartment system.
Instances For
Each frame apartment $A_F$ is a member of the frame apartment system.
The frame apartment system is $SL_V$-stable: the translate of any frame apartment $A_F$ by $g \in SL_V$ is again a frame apartment, namely $A_{gF}$.
The frame apartment system is contained in any apartment system that contains all frame apartments.
The frame apartment system equals every maximal apartment system: the canonical $SL_V$-system of frame apartments is automatically maximal.
Combined result: the Iwahori subgroup is open, closed, and compact, and the building of $SL_V$ over a complete DVR has a maximal apartment system in which any two maximal simplices lie in some common apartment.
From a compact-open Iwahori subgroup, deduce that the maximal apartment system contains any two maximal simplices in a common apartment (formulation without an explicit topology on $SL_V$).
Final theorem on the maximal apartment system of $SL_V$: given that the Iwahori subgroup is open, the Bruhat decomposition holds, and there is a compact set containing it, the Iwahori is automatically closed and compact, and the building has a maximal apartment system covering any pair of maximal simplices.
