Abstract: We study lattices acting on

m a t h r m C A T (0)

spaces via their commensurated subgroups. To do this we introduce the notions of a graph of lattices and a complex of lattices giving graph and complex of group splittings of

m a t h r m C A T (0)

lattices. Using this framework we characterise irreducible uniform

(m a t h r m I s o m (m a t h b b E^{n}) i m e s T)

-lattices by

C^{a} s t

-simplicity and give a necessary condition for lattices in products with a Euclidean factor to be biautomatic. We also construct non-residually finite uniform lattices acting on arbitrary products of right-angled buildings and non-biautomatic lattices acting on the product of

m a t h b b E^{n}

and a right-angled building.
