We attack a conjecture of J. Rogawski: any cocompact lattice in $S U (2, 1)$ for which the ball quotient $X = B^2 / \Gamma$ satisfies $b_1 (X) = 0$ and $H^{1, 1} (X) \cap H^2 (X, \bbq) \approx \bbq$ is arithmetic. We prove the Archimedian…

We obtain asymptotic formulae with optimal error terms for the number of lattice points under and near a dilation of the standard parabola, the former improving upon an old result of Popov. These results can be regarded as achieving the…

Every closed hyperbolic geodesic $\gamma$ on the triply--punctured sphere $M =\widehat{{\mathbb C}} - \{0,1,\infty\}$ has a self--intersection number $I(\gamma) \ge 1$ and a combinatorial length $L(\gamma) \ge 2$, the latter defined by the…

We study finite groups that occur as combinatorial automorphism groups or geometric symmetry groups of convex polytopes. When $\Gamma$ is a subgroup of the combinatorial automorphism group of a convex $d$-polytope, $d\geq 3$, then there…

A coincidence site lattice is a sublattice formed by the intersection of a lattice $\Gamma$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with the image of $\Gamma$ under a linear isometry. Such a linear isometry is referred to as a linear coincidence isometry of…

For $\Gamma$ a cofinite Fuchsian group, and $l$ a fixed closed geodesic, we study the asymptotics of the number of those images of $l$ that have a prescribed orientation and distance from $l$ less than or equal to $X$. Using a new relative…

The existence of the limiting pair correlation for angles between reciprocal geodesics on the modular surface is established. An explicit formula is provided, which captures geometric information about the length of reciprocal geodesics, as…

Let G=SL(n,R) with n>5. We construct examples of lattices Gamma of G, subgroup A of the diagonal group and points x in G/Gamma such that the closure of the orbit Ax is not homogeneous but does not factors through the action of a…

Let $\Gamma$ be a word hyperbolic group with a cyclic JSJ decomposition that has only rigid vertex groups, which are all fundamental groups of closed surface groups. We show that any group $H$ quasi-isometric to $\Gamma$ is abstractly…

We locate gaps in the spectrum of a Hamiltonian on a periodic cuboidal (and generally hyperrectangular) lattice graph with $\delta$ couplings in the vertices. We formulate sufficient conditions under which the number of gaps is finite. As…

We introduce $\Delta$-groups and show how they fit in the context of lattice field theory. To a manifold $M$ we associate a $\Delta$-group $\Gamma(M)$. We define the symmetric cohomology $HS^n(G,A)$ of a group $G$ with coefficients in a…

A linear isometry $R$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ is called a similarity isometry of a lattice $\Gamma \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ if there exists a positive real number $\beta$ such that $\beta R\Gamma$ is a sublattice of (finite index in) $\Gamma$. The…

We study the analytic torsion of odd-dimensional hyperbolic orbifolds $\Gamma \backslash \mathbb{H}^{2n+1}$, depending on a representation of $\Gamma$. Our main goal is to understand the asymptotic behavior of the analytic torsion with…

The model under consideration is a two-dimensional two-component plasma, i.e., a continuous system of two species of pointlike particles of opposite charges $\pm 1$, interacting through the logarithmic Coulomb interaction. Using the exact…

For an even, integral hyperbolic lattice $L$, the symmetry group of $L$ is the quotient of the group of isometries of $L$ by the Weyl subgroup of $(-2)$-reflections. Following Nikulin, the exceptional lattice of $L$ is defined as the…

It is well known that the orbit of a lattice in hyperbolic $n$-space is uniformly distributed when projected radially onto the unit sphere. In the present work, we consider the fine-scale statistics of the projected lattice points, and…

We study the twisted cohomoligical equation over the geodesic flow on $SL(2,\mathbb{R})/\Gamma$. We characterize the obstructions to solving the twisted cohomological equation, construct smooth solution and obtain the tame Sobolev estimates…

The mapping class group $\Gamma$ of the complement of a Cantor set in the plane arises naturally in dynamics. We show that the ray graph, which is the analog of the complex of curves for this surface of infinite type, has infinite diameter…

We study the geometric properties of the terms of the Goldman bracket between two free homotopy classes of oriented closed curves in a hyperbolic surface. We provide an obstruction for the equality of two terms in the Goldman bracket,…

Let $\Gamma$ be a Schottky subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ and let $X=\Gamma\backslash \mathbb{H}^2$ be the associated hyperbolic surface. Conditional on the generalized Riemann hypothesis for quadratic $L$-functions, we establish a…
