Let $A$ be a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix, which is not of finite or affine type. Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be the corresponding Kac-Moody algebra over a commutative ring $R$ with $1$. We construct an infinite-dimensional group $G_V(R)$…

We say that a finitely generated group $G$ has property (QT) if it acts isometrically on a finite product of quasi-trees so that orbit maps are quasi-isometric embeddings. A quasi-tree is a connected graph with path metric quasi-isometric…

For $n\geq 2$, let $\Gamma\subset \mathrm{SU}((n,1),\mathcal{O}_{K})$ be a torsion-free, finite-index subgroup, where $\mathcal{O}_K$ denotes the ring of integers of a totally imaginary number field $K$ of degree $2$. Let $\mathbb{B}^n$…

Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary Gromov-hyperbolic group, and $\partial \Gamma$ denote its Gromov boundary. We consider $\Gamma$-invariant proper $\delta$-hyperbolic, quasi-convex metric $d$ on $\Gamma$, and the associated…

This is a further investigation of our approach to group actions in homological algebra in the settings of homology of {\Gamma}-simplicial groups, particularly of {\Gamma}-equivariant homology and cohomology of {\Gamma}-groups. This…

In this paper, we construct a quantization functor, associating a complex vector space H(V) to a finite dimensional symplectic vector space V over a finite field of odd characteristic. As a result, we obtain a canonical model for the Weil…

Let $\Gamma$ be either the infinite cyclic group $\mathbb{Z}$ or the Baumslag-Solitar group $\mathbb{Z} \ltimes \mathbb{Z}[\frac{1}{2}]$. Let $K$ be a slice knot admitting a slice disc $D$ in the 4-ball whose exterior has fundamental group…

Let $K$ be a henselian valued field with ${\cal O}_K$ its valuation ring, $\Gamma$ its value group, and $\boldsymbol{k}$ its residue field. We study the definable subsets of ${\cal O}_K$ and algebraic groups definable over ${\cal O}_K$ in…

We begin the investigation of Gamma-limit groups, where Gamma is a torsion-free group which is hyperbolic relative to a collection of free abelian subgroups. Using the results of Drutu and Sapir, we adapt the results from math.GR/0404440 to…

In a recent paper [3], the authors introduced a map $\mathcal{F}$ which associates a Deitmar scheme (which is defined over the field with one element, denoted by $\mathbb{F}_1$) with any given graph $\Gamma$. By base extension, a scheme…

Given a field $K$ equipped with a set of discrete valuations $V$, we develop a general theory to relate reduction properties of skew-hermitian forms over a quaternion $K$-algebra $Q$ to quadratic forms over the function field $K(Q)$…

Finite rank median spaces are a simultaneous generalisation of finite dimensional ${\rm CAT}(0)$ cube complexes and real trees. If $\Gamma$ is an irreducible lattice in a product of rank one simple Lie groups, we show that every action of…

Given a closed surface $S$ with finitely generated Veech group $G$ and its $\pi_1(S)$-extension $\Gamma$, there exists a hyperbolic space $\hat{E}$ on which $\Gamma$ acts isometrically and cocompactly. The space $\hat{E}$ is obtained by…

Let $X$ be a globally symmetric space of noncompact type, and $\Gamma\subset\Isom(X)$ a Schottky group of axial isometries. Then $M:=X/\Gamma$ is a locally symmetric Riemannian manifold of infinite volume. The goal of this note is to give…

We prove that any action of a higher rank lattice on a Gromov-hyperbolic space is elementary. More precisely, it is either elliptic or parabolic. This is a large generalization of the fact that any action of a higher rank lattice on a tree…

We introduce and study (strict) Schottky G-bundles over a compact Riemann surface X, where G is a connected reductive algebraic group. Strict Schottky representations are shown to be related to branes in the moduli space of G-Higgs bundles…

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…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $\Gamma$ be an infinite discrete group. The algebraic $K$-theory of the group ring $R[\Gamma]$ is an important object of computation in geometric topology and number theory. When the group ring is…

Let $A$ be a finite dimensional $Q-$algebra and $\Gamma subset A$ a $Z-$order. We classify those $A$ with the property that $Z^2$ does not embed in $\mathcal{U}(\Gamma)$. We call this last property the hyperbolic property. We apply this in…

Given a symmetry $\tau$ of a closed Riemann surface $S$, there exists an extended Kleinian group $K$, whose orientation-preserving half is a Schottky group $\Gamma$ uniformizing $S$, such that $K/\Gamma$ induces $\langle \tau \rangle$; the…
