Let V be a smooth projective 3-fold of general type. Denote by $K^3$, a rational number, the self-intersection of the canonical sheaf of any minimal model of V. One defines $K^3$ as the canonical volume of $V$. Assume $p_g\ge 2$. We show…

We introduce $\Delta$-groups and show how they fit in the context of lattice field theory. To a manifold $M$ we associate a $\Delta$-group $\Gamma(M)$. We define the symmetric cohomology $HS^n(G,A)$ of a group $G$ with coefficients in a…

A classic theorem of Kazhdan and Margulis states that for any semisimple Lie group without compact factors, there is a positive lower bound on the covolume of lattices. H. C. Wang's subsequent quantitative analysis showed that the…

Let $d$ be a square free positive integer and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ a totally real quadratic field over $\mathbb{Q}$. We show there exists an arithmetic lattice L in $SL(8,\mathbb{R})$ with entries in the ring of integers of…

In this note, we estimate the upper bound of volume of closed positively or nonnegatively curved Alexandrov space $X$ with strictly convex boundary. We also discuss the equality case. In particular, the Boundary Conjecture holds when the…

We develop a new method of constructing non-arithmetic lattices in the projective orthogonal group $\text{PO}(n,1)$ for every integer $n$ larger than one. The technique is to consider anti-holomorphic involutions on a complex arithmetic…

Let $K$ be a number field, $k\geq 2$ an integer, $(K^*)^k$ the $k$-fold direct product of $K^*$ with coordinatewise multiplication, and $\Gamma$ a finitely generated subgroup of rank $r$ of $(K^*)^k$. Further, let $H(\alpha )$ denote the…

Given a simple Lie group $H$ of real rank at least $2$ we show that the maximum cardinality of a set of isospectral non-isometric $H$-locally symmetric spaces of volume at most $x$ grows at least as fast as $x^{c\log x/ (\log\log x)^2}$…

For $n\geq 3$ and $\Gamma$ a cocompact lattice acting on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$, we investigate the average behaviour of the error term in the circle problem. First, we explore the local average of the error term over compact…

A theorem of Scott gives an upper bound for the normalized volume of lattice polygons with exactly $i>0$ interior lattice points. We will show that the same bound is true for the normalized volume of lattice polytopes of degree 2 even in…

Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary Kleinian group and $H<\Gamma$ a finitely generated, proper subgroup. We prove that if $\Gamma$ has finite co-volume, then the profinite completions of $H$ and $\Gamma$ are not isomorphic. If $H$ has finite…

We compute the hyperbolic covolume of the automorphism group of each even unimodular Lorentzian lattice. The result is obtained as a consequence of a previous work with Belolipetsky, which uses Prasad's volume to compute the volumes of the…

Let $\Gamma$ be an irreducible lattice in a product of n infinite irreducible complete Kac-Moody groups of simply laced type over finite fields. We show that if n is at least 3, then each Kac-Moody groups is in fact a simple algebraic group…

By a result of Kedra and Pinsonnault, we know that the topology of groups of symplectomorphisms of symplectic 4-manifolds is complicated in general. However, in all known (very specific) examples, the rational cohomology rings of…

Let $M =\mathbb{H}^3/\Gamma$ be a finite-volume, noncompact hyperbolic 3-manifold. We show that the number of quasi-Fuchsian surface subgroups of $\Gamma$ (up to conjugacy and commensurability) of genus at most $g$ is bounded both above and…

Let $\Gamma$ be a nonuniform lattice acting on real hyperbolic n-space. We show that in dimension greater than or equal to 4, the volume of a representation is constant on each connected component of the representation variety of $\Gamma$…

Let $\Lambda = \mathrm{SL}_2(\Bbb Z)$ be the modular group and let $c_n(\Lambda)$ be the number of congruence subgroups of $\Lambda$ of index at most $n$. We prove that $\lim\limits_{n\to \infty} \frac{\log c_n(\Lambda)}{(\log n)^2/\log\log…

Let $G=SL_2(\mathbb R)^d$ and $\Gamma=\Gamma_0^d$ with $\Gamma_0$ a lattice in $SL_2(\mathbb R)$. Let $S$ be any "curved" submanifold of small codimension of a maximal horospherical subgroup of $G$ relative to an $\mathbb R$-diagonalizable…

Given a convex representation $\rho:\Gamma\to\textrm{PGL}(d,\mathbb{R})$ of a convex co-compact group $\Gamma$ of $\mathbb{H}^k$ we find upper bounds for the quantity $\alpha h_\rho,$ where $h_\rho$ is the entropy of $\rho$ and $\alpha$ is…

Homology features of spaces which appear in applications, for instance 3D meshes, are among the most important topological properties of these objects. Given a non-trivial cycle in a homology class, we consider the problem of computing a…
