We show that the group $PSL(2,R)$ is a spherical subgroup in the group of $C^3$-diffeomorphisms of the circle. Also, the group of automorphisms of a Bruhat--Tits tree is a spherical subgroup in the group of hierarchomorphisms of the tree.

We prove that PSL(2,Z[1/p]) gives the first example of groups which are not quasi-isometric to each other but have the same quasi-isometry group. Namely, PSL(2,Z[1/p]) and PSL(2,Z[1/q]) are not quasi-isometric unless p=q, and, independent…

Suppose that $A,B \in {\rm PSL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ generate a discrete and free group of rank 2, and let $m,n\ge 1$. We consider subgroups $\langle R,S\rangle$ of ${\rm PSL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ generated by roots of $A$ and $B$, i.e., by elements…

In this short note we prove that the finite non-abelian simple groups PSL(2,q), where q = 5,7, are determined by their posets of classes of isomorphic subgroups. In particular, this disproves the conjecture in the end of [5].

We show that the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group of $PSL(2, q)$, or more precisely the group $GT_1(PSL(2, q))$ as previously defined by the author, is the product of an elementary abelian 2-group and several copies of the dihedral group of…

We show that for every prime $r$ all $r$-subgroups in the normalized units of the integral group ring of $\operatorname{PSL}(2,p^3)$ are isomorphic to subgroups of $\operatorname{PSL}(2,p^3)$. This answers a question of M. Hertweck, C.R.…

In previous works, the universal mapping class group was taken to be the group PPSL(2,Z) of all piecewise PSL(2,Z) homeomorphisms of the unit circle S^1 with finitely many breakpoints among the rational points, and in fact, the Thompson…

In this article we give a classification of the sub-groups in PSL(2,Z) and of the conjugacy classes of these sub-groups by the mean of an combinatorial invariant: some trivalent diagrams (dotted or not). We give explicit formulae enabling…

We discuss metric and combinatorial properties of Thompson's group T, including normal forms for elements and unique tree pair diagram representatives. We relate these properties to those of Thompson's group F when possible, and highlight…

We describe some of the geometric properties of the automorphism group Aut(F) of Thompson's group F. We give realizations of Aut(F) geometrically via periodic tree pair diagrams, which lead to natural presentations and give effective…

We present a complete classification of elements in the mapping class group of the torus which have a representative that can be written as a product of two orientation reversing involutions. Our interest in such decompositions is motivated…

We present a method to compute finite index subgroups of $PSL_2(\mathbb{Z})$. Our strategy follows Kulkarni's ideas, the main contribution being a recursive method to compute bivalent trees and their automorphism group. As a concrete…

In this paper, we continue our study of the class of diagram groups. Simply speaking, a diagram is a labelled plane graph bounded by a pair of paths (the top path and the bottom path). To multiply two diagrams, one simply identifies the top…

We determine all maximal subgroups of the almost simple groups with socle $T=\PSL(2,q)$, that is, of all groups $G$ such that $\PSL(2,q)\leqslant G\leqslant\PGammaL(2,q)$, with $q\geq 4$.

We describe the subracks of the conjugacy classes of $\mathrm{PSL}(2,q)$ based on Dickson's theorem on subgroups of $\mathrm{PSL}(2,q)$. All minimal non-abelian subracks of $\mathrm{PSL}(2,q)$ are determined. Further, we provide a general…

We give a complete list of orbifolds uniformised by discrete non-elementary two-generator subgroups of PSL(2,C) without invariant plane whose generators and their commutator have real traces.

Let $K$ be a non-archimedean local field. We show that discrete subgroups without 2-torsion in $\mathrm{PSL}_2(K)$ can always be lifted to $\mathrm{SL}_2(K)$, and provide examples (when $\mathrm{char}(K) \neq 2$) which cannot be lifted if…

We show that PSL(2,Z[1/p]) admits a combing with bounded asynchronous width, and use this combing to show that PSL(2,Z[1/p]) has an exponential Dehn function. As a corollary, PSL(2,Z[1/p]) has solvable word problem and is not an automatic…

We provide a brief overview of our upcoming work identifying all the thin Heckoid groups in $PSL(2,\mathbb{C})$. Here we give a complete list of the $55$ thin generalised triangle groups of slope $1/2$. This work was presented at the…

Let M be a hyperbolizable, nontrivial compression body without toroidal boundary components. In this paper, we characterize which discrete and faithful representations of the fundamental group of M into PSL(2,C) are separable-stable. The…
