We construct affine uniformly Lipschitz actions on $\ell^1$ and $L^1$ for certain groups with hyperbolic features. For acylindrically hyperbolic groups, our actions have unbounded orbits, while for residually finite hyperbolic groups and…

Let $G$ be either a non-elementary (word) hyperbolic group or a large group (both in the sense of Gromov). In this paper we describe several approaches for constructing continuous families of periodic quotients of $G$ with various…

The class of acylindrically hyperbolic groups, which are groups that admit a certain type of non-elementary action on a hyperbolic space, contains many interesting groups such as non-exceptional mapping class groups and…

We prove that every countable family of countable acylindrically hyperbolic groups has a common finitely generated acylindrically hyperbolic quotient. As an application, we obtain an acylindrically hyperbolic group $Q$ with strong fixed…

We show the existence of geometric quotients for the spaces of certain classes of morphisms of sheaves on projective space, modulo the canonical action of the group of automorphisms.

We show that pseudo-Anosov mapping classes are generic in every Cayley graph of the mapping class group of a finite-type hyperbolic surface. Our method also yields an analogous result for rank-one CAT(0) groups and hierarchically hyperbolic…

We show the existence of group-theoretic sections of certain geometrically pro-nilpotent by abelian arithmetic fundamental groups of hyperbolic curves over p-adic local fields which are non-geometric, i.e., which do not arise from rational…

In this article we produce an example of a non-residually finite group which admits a uniformly proper action on a Gromov hyperbolic space.

We study the action of the Hecke triangle groups $G_q$ on $\lambda_q \mathbb{Q}(\lambda_q^2) \cup \{\infty\}$ with $\lambda_q = 2 \cos (\pi / q)$. When $q = 18$, we show the existence of infinitely many distinct orbits of fixed points of…

The aim of this note is to give the simplest possible proof that Mapping Class Groups of closed hyperbolic surfaces are acylindrically hyperbolic, and more specifically that their curve graphs are hyperbolic and that pseudo-Anosovs act on…

This article is a first step in the study of equations in periodic groups. As an application, we study the structure of periodic quotients of hyperbolic groups. We investigate for instance the Hopf and co-Hopf properties, the isomorphism…

Using the geometric quotient of a real algebraic set by the action of a finite group G, we construct invariants of GAS sets with respect to equivariant homeomorphisms with AS-graph, including additive invariants with values in Z.

We show that the action on its orbit space induced by a pseudo-Anosov flow on a closed $3$-manifold (and more general Anosov-like actions) can be seen as an isometric action on a Gromov-hyperbolic space. When the flow is not $\R$-covered,…

We show the existence of group-theoretic sections of the "etale-by-geometrically abelian" quotient of the arithmetic fundamental group of hyperbolic curves over $p$-adic local fields relative to a proper and flat model which are…

We show that a quasi-geodesic in an injective metric space is Morse if and only if it is strongly contracting. Since mapping class groups and, more generally, hierarchically hyperbolic groups act properly and coboundedly on injective metric…

We consider partially hyperbolic abelian algebraic high-rank actions on compact homogeneous spaces obtained from simple indefinite orthogonal and unitary groups. In the first part of the paper, we show local differentiable rigidity for such…

We prove several rigidity properties for random quotients of mapping class groups of surfaces, namely whose kernel is normally generated by the n-th steps of finitely many independent random walks. Firstly, we generalise a celebrated…

In this paper, we show that, if a group $G$ acts geometrically on a geodesically complete CAT(0) space $X$ which contains at least one point with a CAT(-1) neighborhood, then $G$ must be either virtually cyclic or acylindrically hyperbolic.…

We introduce the new notion of quotient-saturation as a measure of the immensity of the quotient structure of a group. We present a sufficient condition for a finitely presented group to be quotient-saturated, and use it to deduce that…

We give a new proof that free Burnside groups of sufficiently large even exponents are infinite. The method is very flexible and can also be used to study (partially) periodic quotients of any group which admits an action on a hyperbolic…
