Buildings, surfaces and superrigidity

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Maurice Chiodo .

We will give explicit constructions of hyperbolic buildings as universal covers of certain CW-complexes. The fundamental groups of some of these complexes still have a chance of not to be residually finite and do not contain surface subgroups. We will briefly discuss superrigidity of hyperbolic buildings as well.

This talk is part of the Geometric Group Theory (GGT) Seminar series.
