Ph.D. project: ~C2-buildings admitting panel-regular lattices
Research interests : Tits-buildings, Coxeter groups, Artin groups
Details on the main project: In April 2021, I started my PhD project under supervision of Stefan Witzel. The first goal of this project is to analyse a class of ~C2-buildings that admit a lattice acting regularly on two types of panels (respectively one type of panel). These buildings, as well as a class of ~A2-buildings, were introduced by Essert [1]. The latter class has been studied by Witzel [2], who could determine several properties of the buildings, such as their automorphisms groups and isomorphism classes, from purely combinatorial data. We aim for a similar understanding of the ~C2-buildings.
