We define a new family of discrete representations of relatively hyperbolic groups which unifies many existing definitions and examples of geometrically finite behavior in higher rank. The definition includes the relative Anosov…

In this paper, we present a notion of quasiconvexity in the setting of finitely-generated groups with hyperbolically embedded subgroups. Our main result shows that this notion yields uniform quasiconvex constants in the setting of coned-off…

Let $G$ be an infinite-dimensional representation-theoretic Kac--Moody group associated to a nonsingular symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix. We consider Eisenstein series on $G$ induced from unramified cusp forms on finite-dimensional…

In this note we look at presentations of subgroups of finitely presented groups with infinite cyclic quotients. We prove that if $H$ is a finitely generated normal subgroup of a finitely presented group $G$ with $G/H$ cyclic, then $H$ has…

Bott periodicity plays an important role in topological K-theory. The purpose of this paper is to extend the periodicity theorem in a discrete context, where all classical groups are involved and not just the general linear group. The…

We give a criterion which ensures that a group generated by Cartan involutions in the automorph group of a rational quadratic form of signature (n-1,1) is "thin", namely it is of infinite index in the latter. It is based on a graph defined…

We develop a general framework for studying Abelian categories arising in isomeric representation theory, that is, representation theory broadly related to the supergroup Q(n). In this first part, we introduce notions of isomeric Heisenberg…

Given a critical quantum spin chain with a microscopic Lie-group symmetry, corresponding e.g. to $U(1)$ or $SU(2)$ spin isotropy, we numerically investigate the emergence of Kac-Moody symmetry at low energies and long distances. In that…

We consider the isomorphism problem for almost split Kac--Moody groups, which have been constructed by R\'emy via Galois descent from split Kac-Moody groups as defined by Tits. We show that under certain technical assumptions, any…

We construct a hyperbolic group with a finitely presented subgroup, which has infinitely many conjugacy classes of finite-order elements. We also use a version of Morse theory with high dimensional horizontal cells and use handle…

We give the definition of a kind of building I for a symmetrizable Kac-Moody group over a field K endowed with a dicrete valuation and with a residue field containing C. Due to some bad properties, we call this I a hovel. Nevertheless I has…

The usual way to investigate the statistical properties of finitely generated subgroups of free groups, and of finite presentations of groups, is based on the so-called word-based distribution: subgroups are generated (finite presentations…

Let $\Gamma$ be an $\widetilde A_2$ subgroup of $\PGL_3(\mathbb K)$, where $\mathbb K$ is a local field with residue field of order $q$. The module of coinvariants $C(\mathbb P^2_{\mathbb K},\mathbb Z)_{\Gamma}$ is shown to be finite, where…

Let G be a complete Kac-Moody group over a finite field. It is known that G possesses a BN-pair structure, all of whose parabolic subgroups are open in G. We show that, conversely, every open subgroup of G is contained with finite index in…

We consider the subalgebras of split real, non-twisted affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras that are fixed by the Chevalley involution. These infinite-dimensional Lie algebras are not of Kac-Moody type and admit finite-dimensional unfaithful…

We generalize the notion of tight geodesics in the curve complex to tight trees. We then use tight trees to construct model geometries for certain surface bundles over graphs. This extends some aspects of the combinatorial model for doubly…

We give an explicit algebraic description, based on prismatic cohomology, of the algebraic K-groups of rings of the form $O_K/I$ where $K$ is a p-adic field and $I$ is a non-trivial ideal in the ring of integers $O_K$; this class includes…

In its most general formulation a quantum kinematical system is described by a Heisenberg group; the "configuration space" in this case corresponds to a maximal isotropic subgroup. We study irreducible models for Heisenberg groups based on…
