We develop the foundations of the theory of relatively geometric actions of relatively hyperbolic groups on CAT(0) cube complexes, a notion introduced in our previous work [5]. In the relatively geometric setting we prove: full relatively…

We generalize the classical Hilbert-Mumford criteria for GIT (semi-)stability in terms of one parameter subgroups of a linearly reductive group G over a field k, to the relative situation of an equivariant, projective morphism X -> Spec A…

Given an action of a reductive group on a normal variety, we construct all invariant open subsets admitting a good quotient with a quasiprojective or a divisorial quotient space. Our approach extends known constructions like Mumford's…

Let G be a real or complex linear algebraic reductive group. Let H and F be reductive subgroups. We study the natural H action on G/F. The main theorem of this note shows that generic H orbits are closed. This theorem is then applied to…

Let $G$ be a split reductive group over a local field $\bK$, and let $G((t))$ be the corresponding loop group. In \cite{GK} we have introduced the notion of a representation of (the group of $\bK$-points) of $G((t))$ on a pro-vector space.…

Let $$1 \to H \to G \to Q \to 1$$ be an exact sequence where $H= \pi_1(S)$ is the fundamental group of a closed surface $S$ of genus greater than one, $G$ is hyperbolic and $Q$ is finitely generated free. The aim of this paper is to provide…

Let G be a reductive linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. A subgroup of G is said to be separable in G if its global and infinitesimal centralizers have the same dimension. We study the…

We prove a relative version of a theorem on torsors on the projective line due to Philippe Gille. As a consequence we obtain a ``weak homotopy invariance'' result for torsors under reductive group schemes defined over arbitrary semi-local…

We prove a homological stabilization theorem for Hurwitz spaces: moduli spaces of branched covers of the complex projective line. This has the following arithmetic consequence: let l>2 be prime and A a finite abelian l-group. Then there…

We introduce a Lie algebra of initial terms of logarithmic vector fields along a hypersurface singularity. Extending the formal structure theorem in [GS06, Thm. 5.4], we show that the completely reducible part of its linear projection lifts…

We introduce the notion of a contractible subshift. This is a strengthening of the notion of strong irreducibility, where we require that the gluings are given by a block map. We show that a subshift is a retract of a full shift if and only…

When the action of a reductive group on a projective variety has a suitable linearisation, Mumford's geometric invariant theory (GIT) can be used to construct and study an associated quotient variety. In this article we describe how…

The concept of gyrogroups, with a weaker algebraic structure without associative law, was introduced under the background of $c$-ball of relativistically admissible velocities with Einstein velocity addition. A topological gyrogroup is just…

Let k be a global field. Let G be a connected linear algebraic k-group, assumed reductive when k is a function field. It follows from a result of a preprint by Bary-Soroker, Fehm and Petersen that when H is a smooth connected k-subgroup of…

We generalize the classical Chevalley-Shephard-Todd theorem to the case of finite linearly reductive group schemes. As an application, we prove that every scheme X which is etale locally the quotient of a smooth scheme by a finite linearly…

We construct moduli spaces of linear self-maps of projective space with marked points, up to projective equivalence. That is, we let the special linear group act simultaneously by conjugation on projective linear maps and diagonally on…

We extend the geometric side of Arthur's non-invariant trace formula for a reductive group $G$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$ continuously to a natural space $\mathcal{C}(G(\mathbb{A}^1))$ of test functions which are not necessarily compactly…

Given a certain kind of linear representation of a reductive group, referred to as a quasi-symmetric representation in recent work of \v{S}penko and Van den Bergh, we construct equivalences between the derived categories of coherent sheaves…

Among connected linear algebraic groups, quasi-reductive groups generalize pseudo-reductive groups, which in turn form a useful relaxation of the notion of reductivity. We study quasi-reductive groups over non-archimedean local fields,…

We prove that rational and 1-rational singularities of complex spaces are stable under taking quotients by holomorphic actions of reductive and compact Lie groups. This extends a result of Boutot to the analytic category and yields a…
