By proving precisely which singularity index lists arise from the pair of invariant foliations for a pseudo-Anosov surface homeomorphism, Masur and Smillie determined a Teichm\"uller flow invariant stratification of the space of quadratic…
H. Masur and J. Smillie proved precisely which singularity index lists arise from pseudo-Anosov mapping classes. In search of an analogous theorem for outer automorphisms of free groups, Handel and Mosher ask: Is each connected, simplicial,…
For any surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g \geq 1$ and (essentially) any collection of positive integers $i_1, i_2, \ldots, i_\ell$ with $i_1+\cdots +i_\ell = 4g-4$ Masur and Smillie have shown that there exists a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism…
The main theorem of this document emulates, in the context of Out(F_r) theory, a mapping class group theorem (by H. Masur and J. Smillie) that determines precisely which index lists arise from pseudo-Anosov mapping classes. Since the ideal…
We present a solution to the Conjugacy Problem in the group of outer-automorphisms of $F_3$, a free group of rank 3. We distinguish according to several computable invariants, such as irreducibility, subgroups of polynomial growth, and…
We show how to construct, for each $r \geq 3$, an ageometric, fully irreducible $\phi\in Out(F_r)$ whose ideal Whitehead graph is the complete graph on $2r-1$ vertices. This paper is the second in a series of three where we show that…
We prove a quantitative version of the non-uniform hyperbolicity of the Teichm\"uller geodesic flow. Namely, at each point of any Teichm\"uller flow line, we bound the infinitesimal spectral gap for variations of the Hodge norm along the…
Principal outer automorphisms were introduced in Algom-Kfir-Kapovich-Pfaff to emulate principal pseudo-Anosov surface homeomorphisms, i.e. those whose attracting and repelling invariant foliations have only 3-pronged singularities. It is…
For a finitely generated free group F_n, of rank at least 2, any finite subgroup of Out(F_n) can be realized as a group of automorphisms of a graph with fundamental group F_n. This result, known as Out(F_n) realization, was proved by…
We give an example of an $\mathsf{FIID}$ vertex-labeling of $\mathbb{T}_3$ whose marginals are uniform on $[0,1]$, and if we delete the edges between those vertices whose labels are different, then some of the remaining clusters are…
We generalise to the equivariant case a result of J. Denef and F. Loeser about trigonometric sums on tori; on the other hand, we study the Thom-Boardman stratification associated to the multiplication of global sections of line bundles on a…
We consider the action of an irreducible outer automorphism $\phi$ on the closure of Culler--Vogtmann Outer space. This action has north-south dynamics and so, under iteration, points converge exponentially to $[T^\phi_+]$. For each $N \geq…
Given a countable group $G$ splitting as a free product $G=G_1\ast\dots\ast G_k\ast F_N$, we establish classification results for subgroups of the group $Out(G,\mathcal{F})$ of all outer automorphisms of $G$ that preserve the conjugacy…
We consider autoequivalences of the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on a K3 surface. We prove that the image of the autoequivalences has index at most two in the group of the Hodge isometries of the Mukai lattice. Motivated by…
We show that the properties of admitting a co-oriented taut foliation and having a left-orderable fundamental group are equivalent for rational homology $3$-sphere graph manifolds and relate them to the property of not being a…
Let $X$ be a complex $K3$ surface, ${\rm Diff}(X)$ the group of diffeomorphisms of $X$ and ${\rm Diff}_0(X)$ the identity component. We prove that the fundamental group of ${\rm Diff}_0(X)$ contains a free abelian group of countably…
We prove that any isometry of the graph of cyclic splittings of a finitely generated free group $F_N$ of rank $N\ge 3$ is induced by an outer automorphism of $F_N$. The same statement also applies to the graphs of maximally-cyclic…
In this article, we develop a geometric framework to study the notion of semi-minimality for the generic type of a smooth autonomous differential equation $(X,v)$, based on the study of rational factors of $(X,v)$ and of algebraic…
Let $\Omega_p$ be the group of $p$-adic numbers, $ \xi_1$, $\xi_2$, $\xi_3$ be independent random variables with values in $\Omega_p$ and distributions $\mu_1$, $\mu_2$, $\mu_3$. Let $\alpha_j, \beta_j, \gamma_j$ be topological…
The classical Neukirch-Uchida theorem states that the absolute Galois group determines a number field up to isomorphism. We prove an analogue of this theorem for 3-manifolds in the framework of arithmetic topology. We study infinite links…
