I don't find a formal definition of a building in the article, only applications and examples... --130.83.244.131 19:43, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

It's a valid point. I plan on expanding the formal part eventually, but it gets very technical very fast. Not the least of the problems is a choice between two possible axiomatics of buildings, one based on simplicial complexes (Tits 1974, Brown 1989) and the other based on the notion of a chamber system (1981 paper of Tits, Ronan 1989).

"Tits building" redirects here. For a building in which breasts are shown, see Strip club.

I'm not feeling bold enough to put that into the article. --Damian Yerrick (serious | business) 01:40, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
