The main result of this paper is that the outer automorphism group of a free product of finite groups and cyclic groups is semistable at infinity (provided it is one ended) or semistable at each end. In a previous paper, we showed that the…

Let $\Gamma$ be a connected, triangle-free, planar graph with at least five vertices that has no separating vertices or edges. If the graph $\Gamma$ is $\mathcal{CFS}$, we prove that the right-angled Coxeter group $G_\Gamma$ is virtually a…

Given a discrete group $G$, for any integer $r\geqslant0$ we consider the family of all virtually abelian subgroups of $G$ of rank at most $r$. We give an upper bound for the Bredon cohomological dimension of $G$ for this family for a…

Let G be a discrete group which acts properly and isometrically on a complete CAT(0)-space X. Consider an integer d with d=1 or d greater or equal to 3 such that the topological dimension of X is bounded by d. We show the existence of a…

The co-maximal subgroup graph $\Gamma(G)$ of a group $G$ is a graph whose vertices are non-trivial proper subgroups of $G$ and two vertices $H$ and $K$ are adjacent if $HK=G$. In this paper, we continue the study of $\Gamma(G)$, especially…

We study the algebraic structure of the automorphism group of a general right-angled Artin group. We show that this group is virtually torsion-free and has finite virtual cohomological dimension. This generalizes results proved by the…

We develop a method to bound the dynamic asymptotic dimension of isometric group actions $\Gamma\curvearrowright X$ in terms of the asymptotic dimension of a space of graphs similar to a box space of $\Gamma$ (which also determines…

We prove that if $G$ is a finitely generated RFRS group of cohomological dimension $2$, then $G$ is virtually free-by-cyclic if and only if $b_2^{(2)}(G) = 0$. This answers a question of Wise and generalises and gives a new proof of a…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold. We study subgroups $G \le \mathrm{Aut}(X)$ of biholomorphic automorphisms of zero entropy when $\mathrm{Aut}^0(X)$ is compact (e.g. when $\mathrm{Aut}^0(X)$ is trivial). We show that the virtual…

We prove a dimension formula for orbifold vertex operator algebras of central charge 24 by automorphisms of order $n$ such that $\Gamma_0(n)$ is a genus zero group. We then use this formula together with the inverse orbifold construction…

We consider the problem of whether, for a given virtually torsionfree discrete group $\Gamma$, there exists a cocompact proper topological $\Gamma$-manifold, which is equivariantly homotopy equivalent to the classifying space for proper…
