    Let GF denote the rational points of a semisimple group G over a non-archimedean local field F, with Bruhat-Tits building X. This paper contains five main results. We prove a convergence theorem for sequences of parahoric subgroups of GF in the Chabauty topology, which enables to compactify the vertices of X. We obtain a structure theorem showing that the Bruhat-Tits buildings of the Levi factors all lie in the boundary of the compactification. Then we obtain an identification theorem with the polyhedral compactification (previously defined in analogy with the case of symmetric spaces). We finally prove two parametrization theorems extending the BruhatTits dictionary between maximal compact subgroups and vertices of X: one is about Zariski connected amenable subgroups, and the other is about subgroups with distal adjoint action

    Let G be a split Kac-Moody group over a non-archimedean local field. We define a completion of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra of G. We determine its center and prove that it is isomorphic to the spherical Hecke algebra of G using the Satake isomorphism. This is thus similar to the situation of reductive groups. Our main tool is the masure I associated to this setting, which is the analogue of the Bruhat-Tits building for reductive groups. Then, for each special and spherical facet F, we associate a Hecke algebra. In the Kac-Moody setting, this construction was known only for the spherical subgroup and for the Iwahori subgroup
