In this paper, we study boundary actions of CAT(0) spaces from a point of view of topological dynamics and $C^*$-algebras. First, we investigate the actions of right-angled Coexter groups and right-angled Artin groups with finite defining…

A theorem of Tits - Vinberg allows to build an action of a Coxeter group $\Gamma$ on a properly convex open set $\Omega$ of the real projective space, thanks to the data $P$ of a polytope and reflection across its facets. We give sufficient…

Given an evolution algebra associated to a connected finite graph $\Gamma$, we exhibit a free action of the group of symmetries of $\Gamma$ on the set of automorphisms of the algebra. This allows us to explicitly describe this set and we…

Let \Gamma be a non-cocompact lattice on a locally finite regular right-angled building X. We prove that if \Gamma has a strict fundamental domain then \Gamma is not finitely generated. We use the separation properties of subcomplexes of X…

Let $\Gamma$ be a graph product of finite groups, with finite underlying graph, and let $\Delta$ be the associated right-angled building. We prove that a uniform lattice $\Lambda$ in the cubical automorphism group Aut$(\Delta)$ is weakly…

We study the theory of convergence for CAT$(0)$-lattices (that is groups $\Gamma$ acting geometrically on proper, geodesically complete CAT$(0)$-spaces) and their quotients (CAT$(0)$-orbispaces). We describe some splitting and collapsing…

We characterize groups quasi-isometric to a right-angled Artin group $G$ with finite outer automorphism group. In particular all such groups admit a geometric action on a $CAT(0)$ cube complex that has an equivariant "fibering" over the…

We determine the factorial growth rate of the number of finite index subgroups of right-angled Artin groups as a function of the index. This turns out to depend solely on the independence number of the defining graph. We also make a…

This paper is about geometric and topological properties of a proper CAT(0) space $X$ which is cocompact - i.e. which has a compact generating domain with respect to the full isometry group. It is shown that geodesic segments in $X$ can…

We give a geometric characterisation of those groups that arise as fixed subgroups of finite-order untwisted automorphisms of right-angled Artin groups (RAAGs). They are precisely the fundamental groups of a class of compact special cube…

We prove that the automorphism group of the braid group on four strands acts faithfully and geometrically on a CAT(0) 2-complex. This implies that the automorphism group of the free group of rank two acts faithfully and geometrically on a…

Let $W$ be a right-angled Coxeter group corresponding to a finite non-discrete graph $\mathcal{G}$ with at least $3$ vertices. Our main theorem says that $\mathcal{G}^c$ is connected if and only if for any infinite index quasiconvex…

We construct models for the classifying spaces of coabelian subgroups of right-angled Coxeter groups as homotopy orbit spaces of real moment-angle complexes, generalizing well-known models for the classifying space of a right-angled Coxeter…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated group which admits an action by homeomorphisms on a compact metrizable space $X$. We show that there is a metric on $X$ defining the original topology such that for this metric, the action is by…

In this paper, based on research on rank-one isometries by W.Ballmann and M.Brin and recent research on rank-one isometries of Coxeter groups by P.Caprace and K.Fujiwara, we study a topological fractal structure of boundaries of Coxeter…

We show that an automorphism of an arbitrary CAT(0) cube complex either has a fixed point or preserves some combinatorial axis. It follows that when a group contains a distorted cyclic subgroup, it admits no proper action on a discrete…

By underlying the commutation relation in a right-angled Coxeter group W, we recover the fact that right-angled Coxeter groups are rigid and we describe the second subgroup of Aut(W) that appears in the decomposition of Aut(W) into a…

Shephard groups are common generalizations of Coxeter groups, Artin groups, and graph products of cyclic groups. Their definition is similar to that of a Coxeter group, but generators may have arbitrary order rather than strictly order 2.…

In this article, we characterise geometrically when a right-angled Artin group splits over an abelian subgroup. More precisely, given a finite graph $\Gamma$, we show that $A(\Gamma)$ splits over an abelian subgroup if and only if it is…

The purpose of this article is to give a characterization of families of expander graphs via right-angled Artin groups. We prove that a sequence of simplicial graphs $\{\Gamma_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$ forms a family of expander graphs if and…
