We construct new families of groups with property (T) and infinitely many alternating group quotients. One of those consists of subgroups of $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbf F_{p}[x_1, \dots, x_n])$ generated by a suitable set of tame automorphisms.…

This paper studies the locally uniform exponential growth and product set growth for a finitely generated group $G$ acting properly on a finite product of hyperbolic spaces. Under the assumption of coarsely dense orbits or shadowing…

We introduce two families of two-generator one-relator groups called primitive extension groups and show that a one-relator group is hyperbolic if its primitive extension subgroups are hyperbolic. This reduces the problem of characterising…

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…

We study locally compact groups having all dense subgroups (locally) minimal. We call such groups densely (locally) minimal. In 1972 Prodanov proved that the infinite compact abelian groups having all subgroups minimal are precisely the…

In this article we study locally compact abelian (LCA) groups from the viewpoint of derived categories, using that their category is quasi-abelian in the sense of J.-P. Schneiders. We define a well-behaved derived Hom-complex with values in…

An automorphism $\alpha$ of a group $G$ is normal if it fixes every normal subgroup of $G$ setwise. We give an algebraic description of normal automorphisms of relatively hyperbolic groups. In particular, we prove that for any relatively…

A group is SimpHAtic if it acts geometrically on a simply connected simplicially hereditarily aspherical (SimpHAtic) complex. We show that finitely presented normal subgroups of the SimpHAtic groups are either: finite, or of finite index,…

We introduce a class of countable groups by some abstract group-theoretic conditions. It includes linear groups with finite amenable radical and finitely generated residually finite groups with some non-vanishing $\ell^2$-Betti numbers that…

We prove that amenability of a unitary co-representation $U$ of a locally compact quantum group passes to unitary co-representations that weakly contain $U$. This generalizes a result of Bekka, and answers affirmatively a question of…

We look at group actions on metric spaces, particularly at group actions on geodesic hyperbolic spaces. We classify the types of automorphisms on these spaces and prove several results about the density of the hyperbolic limit set of the…

We show that a group that is hyperbolic relative to strongly shortcut groups is itself strongly shortcut, thus obtaining new examples of strongly shortcut groups. The proof relies on a result of independent interest: we show that every…

We analyse omega-categorical precompact expansions of particular omega-categorical structures from the viewpoint of amenability of their automorphism groups. The main result of the paper corrects and simplifies Section 3.2 of the first…

We prove that the Gromov boundary of every hyperbolic group is homeomorphic to some Markov compactum. Our reasoning is based on constructing a sequence of covers of $\partial G$, which is quasi-$G$-invariant wrt. the ball $N$-type (defined…

We prove that any action of a higher rank lattice on a Gromov-hyperbolic space is elementary. More precisely, it is either elliptic or parabolic. This is a large generalization of the fact that any action of a higher rank lattice on a tree…

The class, denoted by $\mathscr{S}$, of totally disconnected locally compact groups which are non-discrete, compactly generated, and topologically simple contains many compelling examples. In recent years, a general theory for these groups,…

It is shown that in various categories, including many consisting of maps or hypermaps, oriented or unoriented, of a given hyperbolic type, every countable group $A$ is isomorphic to the automorphism group of uncountably many non-isomorphic…

Let $G$ be a word hyperbolic group in the sense of Gromov and $P$ its associated Rips complex. We prove that the fixed point set $P^H$ is contractible for every finite subgroups $H$ of $G$. This is the main ingredient for proving that $P$…

It is known that locally compact groups approximable by finite ones are unimodular, but this condition is not sufficient, for example, the simple Lie groups are not approximable by finite ones as topological groups. In this paper the…

We consider classes of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism $f:M\to M$ with splitting $TM=E^s\oplus E^c\oplus E^u$ and $\dim E^c=2$. These classes include for instance (perturbations of) the product of Anosov and conservative surface…
