Orthogonal forms of Kac–Moody groups are acylindrically hyperbolic

We give sufficient conditions for a group acting on a geodesic metric space to be acylindrically hyperbolic and mention various applications to groups acting on CAT(0) spaces. We prove that a group acting on an irreducible non-spherical non-affine building is acylindrically hyperbolic provided there...
