We prove that thick groups (and more generally thick graphs) have trivial Floyd boundary. This shows a wide class of finitely generated groups that are non-relatively hyperbolic have trivial Floyd boundary. In addition to giving new…
These notes are the English version of the paper "Hyperbolicit\'e du graphe des rayons et quasi-morphismes sur un gros groupe modulaire". The mapping class group Gamma of the complement of a Cantor set in the plane arises naturally in…
Stallings remarked that an outer automorphism of a free group may be thought of as a subdivision of a graph followed by a sequence of folds. In this thesis, we prove that automorphisms of fundamental groups of graphs of groups satisfying…
We show that any group that is hyperbolic relative to virtually nilpotent subgroups, and does not admit peripheral splittings, contains a quasi-isometrically embedded copy of the hyperbolic plane. In natural situations, the specific…
Liv\v{s}ic theorem asserts that, for Anosov diffeomorphisms/flows, a Lipschitz observable is a coboundary if all its Birkhoff sums on every periodic orbits are equal to zero. The transfer function is then Lipschitz. We prove a positive…
We show that there exist linear $3$-uniform hypergraphs with $n$ vertices and $\Omega(n^2)$ edges which contain no copy of the $3 \times 3$ grid. This makes significant progress on a conjecture of F\"{u}redi and Ruszink\'{o}. We also…
In [BBM21], Belk, Bleak and Matucci proved that hyperbolic groups can be seen as subgroups of the rational group. In order to do so, they associated a tree of atoms to each hyperbolic group. Not so many connections between this tree and the…
Extending the work of Godsil and others, we investigate the notion of the inverse of a graph (specifically, of bipartite graphs with a unique perfect matching). We provide a concise necessary and sufficient condition for the invertibility…
In this paper we enumerate and classify the ``simplest'' pairs (M,G) where M is a closed orientable 3-manifold and G is a trivalent graph embedded in M. To enumerate the pairs we use a variation of Matveev's definition of complexity for…
We prove that the Gromov boundary of every hyperbolic group is homeomorphic to some Markov compactum. Our reasoning is based on constructing a sequence of covers of $\partial G$, which is quasi-$G$-invariant wrt. the ball $N$-type (defined…
We introduce, for every surface {\Sigma}, a two-way connection between FO transductions (first-order logical transformations) of the graphs embeddable in {\Sigma} and a certain variant of fan-crossing drawings of graphs in {\Sigma}. If the…
Using an rotation of Yuan, we observe that the gradient graph of any semiconvex function is a Liouville manifold, that is, does not admit bounded harmonic functions. As a corollary, we find that any entire solution of the fourth order…
We obtain a hypergraph generalisation of the graph blow-up lemma proved by Komlos, Sarkozy and Szemeredi, showing that hypergraphs with sufficient regularity and no atypical vertices behave as if they were complete for the purpose of…
In the space $\mathcal{H}^2$ of hyperbolic surfaces decorated with a base unit vector, the topology induced by the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence coincides with the Chabauty topology on the space of discrete torsion-free subgroups of…
A hyperbolic group acts by homeomorphisms on its Gromov boundary. We use a dynamical coding of boundary points to show that such actions are topologically stable in the dynamical sense: any nearby action is semi-conjugate to (and an…
We investigate groups whose Cayley graphs have poor\-ly connected subgraphs. We prove that a finitely generated group has bounded separation in the sense of Benjamini--Schramm--Tim\'ar if and only if it is virtually free. We then prove a…
We show the existence of hyperbolic 4-manifolds with vanishing Seiberg-Witten invariants, addressing a conjecture of Claude LeBrun. This is achieved by showing, using results in geometric and arithmetic group theory, that certain hyperbolic…
Let $p$ be an algebraic point of a projective variety $X$ defined over a number field. Liouville inequality tells us that the norm at $p$ of a non vanishing integral global section of an hermitian line bundle over $X$ is either zero or it…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite, undirected, connected, simple graph. We say that a matching $\mathcal{M}$ is a \textit{permutable $m$-matching} if $\mathcal{M}$ contains $m$ edges and the subgroup of $\text{Aut}(\Gamma)$ that fixes the matching…
We address the question of determining which mapping class groups of infinite-type surfaces admit nonelementary continuous actions on hyperbolic spaces. More precisely, let $\Sigma$ be a connected, orientable surface of infinite type with…
