Full Resolution to Papikian's Conjecture
Abstract
We prove Papikian's conjecture on the spectrum of the signed up-down walk on the spherical building. Namely, we show that in the spherical building of dimension n-2 and thickness q + 1, the number of distinct eigenvalues is independent of q and for q going to infinity the positive eigenvalues converge to n-1, ... , n-i.
