By now\, buildings have a ver y rich theory of their own\; for instance\, they possess a 'non-positively curved' cellular complex structure\, which makes them prominent objects o f interest in geometric group theory. In this talk\, I will investigate ce rtain combinatorial analogues of geodesic rays in buildings (the 'geodesic ray bundles') and give some intuition about how they look like. Using rec ent results of Huang\, Sabok and Shinko\, I will then derive some conseque nces on the topic of hyperfinite group actions.\n DTSTART:20181107T200000Z DTEND:20181107T210000Z LOCATION:Room 1104\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Timothée Marquis\, Université Catholique de Louvain URL:/mathstat/channels/event/timothee-marquis-universi te-catholique-de-louvain-291304 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
