For a geometrically rational surface X over an arbitrary field of characteristic different from 2 and 3 that contains all roots of 1, we show that either X is birational to a product of a projective line and a conic, or the group of…

Let $\Phi$ be a pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphism of a compact (possibly non-orientable) surface $\Sigma$ with one boundary component. We show that if $b \in \pi_1(\Sigma)$ is the boundary word, $\phi \in {\rm{Aut}}(\pi_1(\Sigma))$ is a…

We show that infinitesimal automorphisms and infinitesimal deformations of parabolic geometries can be nicely described in terms of the twisted de-Rham sequence associated to a certain linear connection on the adjoint tractor bundle. For…

We characterize strongly Morse quasi-geodesics in Outer space as quasi-geodesics which project to quasi-geodesics in the free factor graph. We define convex cocompact subgroups of $Out(F_n)$ as subgroups such that an orbit map in the free…

We provide an effective algorithm for determining whether an element of the outer automorphism group of a free group is fully irreducible. Our method produces a finite list which can be checked for periodic proper free factors.

We consider the action of outer automorphisms on the deformation space $\mathcal{O}$ of $G$-trees given by a free product decomposition of a group $G$. We show that an irreducible, displacement 1 automorphism fixes exactly one point in…

The free singularity locus of a noncommutative polynomial f is defined to be the sequence $Z_n(f)=\{X\in M_n^g : \det f(X)=0\}$ of hypersurfaces. The main theorem of this article shows that f is irreducible if and only if $Z_n(f)$ is…

We study the large scale geometry of the relative free splitting complex and the relative free factor complex of the rank $n$ free group $F_n$, relative to the choice of a free factor system of $F_n$, proving that these complexes are…

In this paper we study holomorphic properties of infinite dimensional spin factors. Among the infinite dimensional Banach spaces with homogeneous open unit balls, we show that the spin factors are natural outlier spaces in which to ask the…

In this article, we give a proof for a geometric presentation theorem for any irreducible scheme $X$ smooth projective over a discrete valuation ring $R$. As a consequence, for any reductive $R$-group scheme $\mathbf{G}$, we prove that any…

Every irreducible outer automorphism of the free group of rank r is topologically represented by an irreducible train track map $f$ on some graph $\Gamma$ of rank r. Moreover, $f$ can always be written as a composition of folds and a graph…

A bounded automorphism of a field or a group with trivial approximate centre is definable. In an expansion of a field by a Pfaffian family F of additive endomorphisms such that algebraic closure in the expansion coincides with relative…

We extend a result of Napp Avelli, van der Put, and Rocha with a system-theoretic interpretation to the noncommutative case: Let P be a f.g. projective module over a two-sided Noetherian domain. If P admits a subdirect product structure of…

We consider fibrations by affine lines on smooth affine surfaces obtained as complements of smooth rational curves $B$ in smooth projective surfaces $X$ defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We observe that…

We classify compact complex surfaces whose groups of bimeromorphic selfmaps have bounded finite subgroups. We also prove that the stabilizer of a point in the automorphism group of a compact complex surface of zero Kodaira dimension, as…

We introduce and develop a language of semigroups over the braid groups for a study of braid monodromy factorizations (bmf's) of plane algebraic curves and other related objects. As an application we give a new proof of Orevkov's theorem on…

For a map f: X -> Y of quasi-compact quasi-separated schemes, we discuss quasi-perfection, that is, the right adjoint f^\times of the derived functor Rf_* respects small direct sums. This is equivalent to the existence of a functorial…

We give a short proof of a theorem of Handel and Mosher stating that any finitely generated subgroup of $\text{Out}(F_N)$ either contains a fully irreducible automorphism, or virtually fixes the conjugacy class of a proper free factor of…

In this article we generalize a theorem of Benson for generalized quadrangles to strongly regular graphs and directed strongly regular graphs. The main result provides numerical restrictions on the number of fixed vertices and the number of…

In this paper we prove that a fully irreducible outer automorphism relative to a non-exceptional free factor system acts loxodromically on the relative free factor complex as defined by Handel and Mosher. We also prove a north-south dynamic…
