The fundamental group of a Riemannian manifold with $\delta$-pinched negative curvature, $\delta >1/4$, cannot be the fundamental group of a quasicompact K\"ahler manifold. The proof also implies that a non-uniform lattice in $F_{4(-20)}$…

This is the topological part of two papers on the cohomology of Kaehler groups. In this paper we show that if a linear duality group of dimension larger than 6 is the fundamental group of a compact Kaehler manifold then its second or its…

Let L be a lattice in a connected Lie group. We show that besides a few exceptional cases, the deficiency of L is nonpositive.

This is the geometric part of two papers on the cohomology of Kaehler groups. Using non-Abelian Hodge theory we show that if a finitely presented group with an unbounded complex linear morphism is the fundamental group of a compact Kaehler…

Sometime ago, we showed that a pure Artin braid group is not K\"ahler, i.e. it is not the fundamental group of a compact K\"ahler manifold. This used a result of Bressler, Ramachandran and the author that K\"ahler groups cannot be too…

We study homomorphisms from K\"ahler groups to Coxeter groups. As an application, we prove that a cocompact complex hyperbolic lattice (in complex dimension at least 2) does not embedd into a Coxeter group or a right-angled Artin group.…

We prove that, under mild assumptions, a lattice in a product of semi-simple Lie group and a totally disconnected locally compact group is, in a certain sense, arithmetic. We do not assume the lattice to be finitely generated or the ambient…

The main aim of this paper is the description of a large class of lattices in some nilpotent Lie groups, sometimes filiformes, carrying a flat left invariant linear connection anf often a left invariant symplectic form. As a consequence we…

We prove that for $n\geq 2$, a non-uniform lattice in $\text{PU}(n,1)$ does not admit a relatively geometric action on a $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ cube complex, in the sense of Einstein and Groves. As a consequence, if $\Gamma$ is a non-uniform…

We show the existence of a compact K\"ahler manifold which does not fit in a proper flat family over an irreducible base with one projective (possibly singular) fiber. We also give a topological version of this statement. This strengthens…

We study Lie foliations on compact manifolds, in case the Lie group is compact. Our main results improve Tischler classical result on the existence of fibration and, as an application, we study the case the manifold has an amenable…

Let X be a compact K\"ahler manifold such that the universal cover admits a compactification. We conjecture that the fundamental group is almost abelian and reduce it to a classical conjecture of Iitaka.

We study the existence of lattices in almost abelian Lie groups that admit left invariant locally conformal K\"ahler or locally conformal symplectic structures in order to obtain compact solvmanifolds equipped with these geometric…

We construct a family of $6$-dimensional compact manifolds $M(A)$, which are simultaneously diffeomorphic to complex Calabi-Yau manifolds and symplectic Calabi-Yau manifolds. They have fundamental groups $\mathbb{Z} \oplus \mathbb{Z}$,…

We investigate the existence of $p$-K\"ahler structures on two classes of complex manifolds: on quasi-regular fibrations, with particular emphasis on complex homogeneous spaces, and on reductive Lie groups endowed with invariant complex…

We produce an example of an irreducible discrete subgroup in the product $SL(2,\R)\times SL(2,\R)$ which is not a lattice. This answers a question asked in [15].

A $p$-K\"ahler structure on a complex manifold of complex dimension $n$ is given by a $d$-closed transverse real $(p,p)$-form. In the paper we study the existence of $p$-K\"ahler structures on compact quotients of simply connected Lie…

We prove that an irreducible lattice in a real semi-simple Lie group of real rank at least two and finite center is not left-orderable.

Let $K$ be a $p$-adic field, and let $K_\infty/K$ be a Galois extension that is almost totally ramified, and whose Galois group is a $p$-adic Lie group of dimension $1$. We prove that $K_\infty$ is not dense in $(\mathbf{B}_{\mathrm{dR}}^+…

We show that symmetric spaces and thick affine buildings which are not of spherical type $A_1^r$ have no coarse median in the sense of Bowditch. As a consequence, they are not quasi-isometric to a CAT(0) cube complex, answering a question…
