Abstract
We show that there exists a quasi-isometric embedding of the product of copies of into any symmetric space of non-compact type of rank , and there exists a bi-Lipschitz embedding of the product of copies of the 3-regular tree into any thick Euclidean building of rank with co-compact affine Weyl group. This extends a previous result of Fisher–Whyte. The proof is purely geometrical, and the result also applies to the non–Bruhat–Tits buildings.
