  1. The center conjecture for thick spherical buildings.

    Authors: Carlos Ramos-Cuevas
    Subjects: Metric Geometry
    Abstract

    We prove that a convex subcomplex of a spherical building of type E7 or E8 is
    a subbuilding or the group of building automorphisms preserving the subcomplex
    has a fixed point in it. Together with previous results of Muehlherr-Tits, and
    Leeb and the author, this completes the proof of Tits' Center Conjecture for
    thick spherical buildings.
