Given a geodesic inside a simply-connected, complete, non-positively curved Riemannian (NPCR) manifold M, we get an associated geodesic inside the asymptotic cone Cone(M). Under mild hypotheses, we show that if the latter is contained…
Four-dimensional twisted group lattices are used as models for space-time structure. Compared to other attempts at space-time deformation, they have two main advantages: They have a physical interpretation and there is no difficulty in…
In this paper, we demonstrate that the lattice structure of a set of clusters in a cluster algebra of finite type is anti-isomorphic to the torsion lattice of a certain Geiss-Leclerc-Schr\"oer (GLS) path algebra and to the $c$-Cambrian…
The rank of a hierarchically hyperbolic space is the maximal number of unbounded factors in a standard product region. For hierarchically hyperbolic groups, this coincides with the maximal dimension of a quasiflat. Examples for which the…
We discuss connections between certain classes of supersymmetric quiver gauge theories and integrable lattice models from the point of view of topological quantum field theories (TQFTs). The relevant classes include 4d $\mathcal{N} = 1$…
Buildings have been introduced by J. Tits in order to study semi-simple algebraic groups from a geometrical point of view. One of the most important results in the theory of buildings is the classification of irreducible spherical buildings…
We give a complete characterisation of when the right-angled Artin group on one cycle graph can be quasiisometrically embedded in the right-angled Artin group on another cycle graph. In particular, we find infinitely many instances of…
Given a semisimple linear algebraic $k$-group $G$, one has a spherical building $\Delta_G$, and one can interpret the geometric realisation $\Delta_G(\mathbb R)$ of $\Delta_G$ in terms of cocharacters of $G$. The aim of this paper is to…
We show that torsion-free four-dimensional $\mathrm{GL}(2)$-structures are flat up to a coframe transformation with a mapping taking values in a certain subgroup $H\subset\mathrm{SL}(4,\mathbb{R})$ which is isomorphic to a semidirect…
Let X be a right-angled building. We show that the lattices in Aut(X) share many properties with tree lattices. For example, we characterise the set of covolumes of uniform and of nonuniform lattices in Aut(X), and show that the group…
We show that uniform lattices of isometries of products of real hyperbolic spaces act properly discontinuously and cocompactly on a median space. For lattices in products of at least two factors, this is the strongest degree of…
Motivated by intertwined crystal symmetries and topological phases, we study the possible realization of topological insulator in nonsymmorphic crystals at integer fillings. In particular, we consider spin orbit coupled electronic systems…
There is a well known link between (maximal) polar representations and isotropy representations of symmetric spaces provided by Dadok. Moreover, the theory by Tits and Burns-Spatzier provides a link between irreducible symmetric spaces of…
We construct quasi-isometric embeddings from right-angled Artin groups into the outer automorphism group of a free group. These homomorphisms are in analogy with those constructed in \cite{CLM}, where the target group is the mapping class…
We announce results about the structure and arithmeticity of all possible lattice embeddings of a class of countable groups which encompasses all linear groups with simple Zariski closure, all groups with non-vanishing first l2-Betti…
A two-legged ladder model, one dimensional, exhibiting the parity anomaly is constructed. The model belongs to the $C$ and $CI$ symmetry classes, depending on the parameters, but, due to reflection, it exhibits topological insulation. The…
Using the classification and description of the structure of bisimple monogenic orthodox semigroups obtained in \cite{key10}, we prove that every bisimple orthodox semigroup generated by a pair of mutually inverse elements of infinite order…
We show that any group that is hyperbolic relative to virtually nilpotent subgroups, and does not admit peripheral splittings, contains a quasi-isometrically embedded copy of the hyperbolic plane. In natural situations, the specific…
We construct the first examples of chamber-regular lattices on $\tilde C_2$-buildings. Assuming a conjecture of Kantor our list of examples becomes a classification for chamber-regular $\tilde C_2$-lattices on locally-finite $\tilde…
We consider the moduli space of flat G-bundles over the twodimensional torus, where G is a real, compact, simple Lie group which is not simply connected. We show that the connected components that describe topologically non-trivial bundles…
