Marquis's fixed-point conjecture for locally elliptic actions on buildings

Let GG be a group acting by type-preserving simplicial isometries on a building Δ\Delta. Let XX be the Davis realization of Δ\Delta, and suppose that the GG-action on XX is locally elliptic.

Marquis's conjecture. The group GG has a global fixed point in XXX\cup\partial X.

This conjecture is confirmed in the special case of right-angled buildings, because their Davis realizations are finite-dimensional CAT(0)\mathrm{CAT}(0) cube complexes and Corollary B applies. The general case is not resolved by the supplied text.
