On the generation of some Lie-type geometries

For a non-connected set J of nodes of the diagram Xn, let Γ(K)=GrJ(Xn(K)) be the J-grassmannian of Xn(K). We prove that Γ(K) cannot be generated over any proper sub-division ring K0 of K...

Abstract Let Xn(K) be a building of Coxeter type Xn=An or Xn=Dn defined over a given division ring K (a field when Xn=Dn). For a non-connected set J of nodes of the diagram Xn, let Γ(K)=GrJ(Xn(K)) be the J-grassmannian of Xn(K). We prove that Γ(K) cannot be generated over any proper sub-division ring K0 of K. As a consequence, the generating rank of Γ(K) is infinite when K is not finitely generated. In particular, if K is the algebraic closure of a finite field of prime order then the generating rank of Gr1,n(An(K)) is infinite, although its embedding rank is either (n+1)2−1 or (n+1)2.
