The simplicial complex consisting of all non-empty subsets of a fixed chamber $C$ — the abstract closure of the simplex $C$.
Instances For
A labelling-style retraction of a building $\mathcal{B}$ onto a chamber: data of a base chamber $C$, a vertex map $\rho$ sending each face to a face of $C$, injective on each face, and fixing $C$ pointwise.
- base : Finset V
- map : V → V
Instances For
A geometric point of the realisation $|\Delta|$ of a simplicial complex, given as a barycentric weight function $\mathrm{wt} : V \to \mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}$ supported on a single face $\sigma$ with weights summing to $1$.
Instances For
The open star of a point $x \in |\Delta|$: all points $z$ whose support lies, together with the support of $x$, inside a single common face.
Instances For
The pushforward of a weight function $\mathrm{wt}$ supported on $\sigma$ along a vertex map $\rho$: the new weight at $v$ is $\sum_{u \in \sigma,\, \rho(u) = v} \mathrm{wt}(u)$.
Instances For
The $L^\infty$ distance between two barycentric points: the supremum of $|p.\mathrm{wt}(v) - q.\mathrm{wt}(v)|$ over vertices in the union of their supports.
Instances For
A labelling retraction is injective on each building face.
Two points $x, x'$ that lie in the open star of one another and have the same image under a labelling retraction must coincide as weight functions — fibers are pointwise unique within a star.
For any retraction image $y$ there is a uniform radius $\delta > 0$ such that every preimage point $x$ has its $\delta$-ball contained in its star — the fiber-with-star is a neighbourhood.
The preimage of a point under a labelling retraction is discrete: two distinct preimages of $y$ are separated by at least a fixed positive distance $\delta$.
