Let Gamma < PSL_2(C) be discrete, cofinite volume, and noncocompact. We prove that for all K > 1, there is a subgroup H < Gamma that is K-quasiconformally conjugate to a discrete cocompact subgroup of PSL_2(R). Along with previous work of…

We calculate explicitly cohomologies of the lattices over the Kleinian 4-group belonging to the regular components of the Auslander-Reiten quiver as well as of their dual modules. The result is applied to the classification of some…

Suppose that a group $G$ has socle $L$ a simple large-rank classical group. Suppose furthermore that $G$ acts transitively on the set of lines of a linear space $\mathcal{S}$. We prove that, provided $L$ has dimension at least 25, then $G$…

We show that any complex (respectively real) representation of finite group naturally generates a open-closed (respectively Klein) topological field theory over complex numbers. We relate the 1-point correlator for the projective plane in…

The paper surveys highlights of the ongoing program to classify discrete polyhedral structures in Euclidean 3-space by distinguished transitivity properties of their symmetry groups, focussing in particular on various aspects of the…

We prove that finitely generated higher dimensional Kleinian groups with small critical exponent are always convex-cocompact. Along the way, we also prove some geometric properties for any complete pinched negatively curved manifold with…

We give a topological description of the quotient space $\Omega(G)/G$ in the case $G \subset PSL(3, \mathbb{C})$ is a discrete subgroup acting on $\mathbb{P}^2_\mathbb{C}$ and the maximum number of complex projective lines in general…

The Torelli group of a compact non-orientable Klein surface is the subgroup of the modular group consisting of the mapping classes that act trivially on the first homology group of the surface. We prove that if a surface has genus at least…

We study and classify the purely parabolic discrete subgroups of $PSL(3,\Bbb{C})$. This includes all discrete subgroups of the Heisenberg group ${\rm Heis}(3,\Bbb{C})$. While for $PSL(2,\Bbb{C})$ every purely parabolic subgroup is Abelian…

We describe smooth compactifications of certain families of reductive homogeneous spaces such as group manifolds for classical Lie groups, or pseudo-Riemannian analogues of real hyperbolic spaces and their complex and quaternionic…

The Sullivan dictionary between Kleinian groups and rational dynamics describes striking similarities between the fields, both in terms of the objects of study as well as the techniques used. We give an expository account of a recent bridge…

We show that every finitely-generated free subgroup of a right-angled, co-compact Kleinian reflection group is contained in a surface subgroup.

Classical Fourier analysis has an exact counterpart in group theory and in some areas of geometry. Here I'll describe how this goes for nilpotent Lie groups and for a class of Riemannian manifolds closely related to a nilpotent Lie group…

We determine the differential Galois group of the family of all regular singular differential equations on the Riemann sphere. It is the free proalgebraic group on a set of cardinality $|\mathbb{C}|$.

We generalize the theory of critical groups from graphs to simplicial complexes. Specifically, given a simplicial complex, we define a family of abelian groups in terms of combinatorial Laplacian operators, generalizing the construction of…

In this paper we look at a special type of discrete subgroups of $PSL_{n+1}(\Bbb{C})$ called Schottky groups. We develop some basic properties of these groups and their limit set when $n > 1$, and we prove that Schottky groups only occur in…

Let $G$ be a non-elementary discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{Sp}(2,1)$. We show that if the sum of diagonal entries of each element of $G$ is a complex number, then $G$ is conjugate to a subgroup of $\mathrm{U}(2,1)$.

The special Galilean group, usually denoted SGal(3), is a 10-dimensional Lie group whose important subgroups include the special orthogonal group, the special Euclidean group, and the group of extended poses. We briefly describe SGal(3) and…

The classical Hamilton equations of motion yield a structure sufficiently general to handle an almost arbitrary set of ordinary differential equations. Employing elementary algebraic methods, it is possible within the Hamiltonian structure…

The Klein group contains only four elements. Nevertheless this little group contains a number of remarkable entry points to current highways of modern representation theory of groups. In this paper, we shall describe all possible ways in…
