Asymptotic codimension-one Cheeger constant conjecture for finite buildings

Let An+1(Fq)A_{n+1}({\mathbb F}_q) be the nn-dimensional building associated with the projective geometry over the finite field Fq{\mathbb F}_q, and let hn1h_{n-1} denote its normalized codimension-one Cheeger constant. Asymptotic Cheeger constant conjecture. For fixed nn and qq\to\infty, one has

hn1(An+1(Fq))=1o(1).h_{n-1}\left(A_{n+1}({\mathbb F}_q)\right)=1-o(1).

This would improve the bounds for the normalized Cheeger constants in the paper, extending the known one-dimensional result for the points-versus-lines graph of the Desarguesian projective plane. The source presents this as a likely improvement rather than reporting a resolution.
