Let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in $\mathrm{SO}_0(n, 1)$. We prove that if the associated locally symmetric space contains infinitely many maximal totally geodesic subspaces of dimension at least $2$, then $\Gamma$ is arithmetic. This answers a…

We prove that if $\Gamma $ is a word hyperbolic group and $K$ is a finite subset of $\Gamma $, then $\Gamma $ admits a tile containing $K$.

Let $G$ be a Cayley graph of the elementary abelian $2$-group $\mathbb{Z}_2^{n}$ with respect to a set $S$ of size $d$. We prove that for any such $G, S$ and $d$, the maximum degree of any induced subgraph of $G$ on any set of more than…

A piece of a labelled graph $\Gamma$ defined by D. Gruber is a labelled path that embeds into $\Gamma$ in two essentially different ways. We prove that graphical $Gr'(\frac{1}{6})$ small cancellation groups whose associated pieces have…

We determine all factorisations $X=AB$, where $X$ is a finite almost simple group and $A,B$ are core-free subgroups such that $A\cap B$ is cyclic or dihedral. As a main application, we classify the graphs $\Gamma$ admitting an almost simple…

We prove a new version of the classical peak-reduction theorem for automorphisms of free groups in the setting of right-angled Artin groups. We use this peak-reduction theorem to prove two important corollaries about the action of the…

A graph $\Gamma$ is $k$-connected-homogeneous ($k$-CH) if $k$ is a positive integer and any isomorphism between connected induced subgraphs of order at most $k$ extends to an automorphism of $\Gamma$, and connected-homogeneous (CH) if this…

We introduce a graph-theoretical interpretation of an induced action of Aut$(\Gamma)$ in the discrete de Rham cohomology of a finite graph $\Gamma$. This action produces a splitting of Aut$(\Gamma)$ that depends on the cycles of $\Gamma$.…

We prove that a parabolic subgroup $P$ contained in another parabolic subgroup $P'$ of an Artin group $A$ is a parabolic subgroup of $P'$. This answers a question of Godelle which is not obvious despite appearances. In order to achieve our…

We study the outer automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group $A_\Gamma$ with finite defining graph $\Gamma$. We construct a subnormal series for $Out(A_\Gamma)$ such that each consecutive quotient is either finite, free-abelian,…

There is an established bijection between finite-index subgroups Gamma of Gamma(2) and bipartite graphs on surfaces, or, equivalently, certain triples of permutations. We utilize this relationship to study both congruence and noncongruence…

This is an announcement of some of the results obtained as a part of the second author's Ph.D. thesis. In the first part, we prove that the fundamental group of an acylindrical complex of hyperbolic groups with finite edge groups is…

We study commutation properties of subsets of right-angled Artin groups and trace monoids. We show that if Gamma is any graph not containing a four-cycle without chords, then the group G(Gamma) does not contain four elements whose…

In this paper we introduce the notion of $\Sigma$-colouring of a graph $G$: For given subsets $\Sigma(v)$ of neighbours of $v$, for every $v\in V(G)$, this is a proper colouring of the vertices of $G$ such that, in addition, vertices that…

It was proved by Mineyev and Yaman that, if $(\Gamma, \Gamma')$ is a relatively hyperbolic pair, the comparison map $$ H_b^k(\Gamma, \Gamma'; V) \to H^k(\Gamma, \Gamma'; V) $$ is surjective for every $k \ge 2$, and any bounded…

Let $f$ be a non-negative square-integrable function on a finite volume hyperbolic surface $\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H}$, and assume that $f$ is non-autocorrelated, that is, perpendicular to its image under the operator of averaging over the…

By Theorem~1.12 of the paper "A Class of Representations of Hecke Algebras", if $W$ is a Coxeter group whose proper parabolic subgroups are finite, and if the module of a finite $W$-digraph $\Gamma$ is isomorphic to the module of a…

Given a finite group $G$, denote by $\Gamma(G)$ the simple undirected graph whose vertices are the distinct sizes of noncentral conjugacy classes of $G$, and set two vertices of $\Gamma(G)$ to be adjacent if and only if they are not coprime…

We study the trace set of the commutator subgroup of $\Gamma(2),$ a type of Local-Global problem about thin groups. We determine the local obstructions and then use the correspondence between binary quadratic forms and hyperbolic matrices…

Clean markings on surfaces were a key component in Masur and Minsky's hierarchy machinery, which proved to be a powerful tool in the study of mapping class groups. We construct a marking graph for irreducible finite-type Artin groups which…
