Abstract

We establish a fixed point theoremfor a certain type of non-expandingmaps in Euclidean buildings, which is inspired by a theorem of Laffaille in p-adic Hodge theory [10, Theorem 3.2].

Acknowledgement

This work grew out of a collaboration with Marc-Hubert Nicole on G-isocrystals and a related question of Jean-François Dat: what about filtrations? Bruno Klingler provided the enlightening reference [9], Anders Karlsson the proof of his remark, and Guy Rousseau the proof of Proposition 4.
