We prove that there are infinitely many non-homeomorphic hyperbolic knot complements $S^3\setminus K_i = \mathbb{H}^3/\Gamma_i$ for which $\Gamma_i$ contains elements whose trace is an algebraic non-integer.
As an analogue of the topological boundary of discrete groups $\Gamma$, we define the noncommutative topological boundary of tracial von Neumann algebras $(M, \tau)$ and apply it to generalize the main results of [AHO23], showing that for a…
We have recently proposed a Lagrangian in trace dynamics at the Planck scale, for unification of gravitation, Yang-Mills fields, and fermions. Dynamical variables are described by odd-grade (fermionic) and even-grade (bosonic) Grassmann…
We prove the uniqueness of the group measure space Cartan subalgebra in crossed products A \rtimes \Gamma covering certain cases where \Gamma is an amalgamated free product over a non-amenable subgroup. In combination with Kida's work we…
In this note, we study the field generated by the traces of subgroups of SU(n,1). Under some hypotheses, the trace field of a group $\Gamma \subset$ SU(2,1) is equal to the field generated by the coefficients of the matrices in $\Gamma$. If…
We give a short new proof that for each non-elementary Kleinian group $\Gamma$, the exponent of convergence of an arbitrary non-trivial normal subgroup is bounded below by half of the exponent of convergence of $\Gamma$, and that strict…
A graph $\Gamma$ is said to be symmetric if its automorphism group $\rm Aut(\Gamma)$ acts transitively on the arc set of $\Gamma$. In this paper, we show that if $\Gamma$ is a finite connected heptavalent symmetric graph with solvable…
We develop methods to control the first-order theory of groups arising as certain direct limits of torsion-free hyperbolic groups, answering several questions in the literature. We construct simple torsion-free Tarski monsters $\Gamma$…
In this paper we analyze and classify the totally geodesic subspaces of finite volume quaternionic hyperbolic orbifolds and their generalizations, locally symmetric orbifolds arising from irreducible lattices in Lie groups of the form…
Let G/K be an irreducible Riemannian symmetric space of the non-compact type and denote by \Xi the associated crown domain. We show that for any proper action of a cyclic group \Gamma the quotient \Xi/\Gamma is Stein. An analogous statement…
Let $X=G/H$ be a reductive homogeneous space with $H$ noncompact, endowed with a $G$-invariant pseudo-Riemannian structure. Let $L$ be a reductive subgroup of $G$ acting properly on $X$ and $\Gamma$ a torsion-free discrete subgroup of $L$.…
Let $D$ be a bounded homogeneous domain in $\mbb{C}^n$ and let $\Gamma$ be a cyclic discrete subgroup of the automorphism group of $D$. It is shown that the complex space $D/\Gamma$ is Stein.
We study quadratic forms that can occur as trace forms of Galois field extensions L/K, under the assumption that K contains a primitive 4th root of unity. M. Epkenhans conjectured that any such form is a scaled Pfister form. We prove this…
We give a classification of irreducible four-dimensional symmetric spaces $G/H$ which admit compact Clifford-Klein forms, where $G$ is the transvection group of $G/H$. For this, we develop a method that applies to particular 1-connected…
Let $Y=\Gamma\backslash H^n$ be a quotient of the hyperbolic space by the action of a discrete convex-cocompact group of isometries. We describe certain spaces of $\Gamma$-invariant currents on the sphere at infinity of $H^n$ with support…
Let $G$ be a connected, absolutely almost simple, algebraic group defined over a finitely generated, infinite field $K$, and let $\Gamma$ be a Zariski dense subgroup of $G(K)$. We show, apart from some few exceptions, that the…
We study boundary representations of hyperbolic groups $\Gamma$ on the (compactly embedded) function space $W^{\log,2}(\partial\Gamma)\subset L^2(\partial\Gamma)$, the domain of the logarithmic Laplacian on $\partial\Gamma$. We show that…
Consider a strictly hyperbolic $n\times n$ system of conservation laws, where each characteristic field is either genuinely nonlinear or linearly degenerate. In this standard setting, it is well known that there exists a Lipschitz semigroup…
For any integers $p\geq 2$ and $q\geq 1$, let $\mathbb{H}^{p,q}$ be the pseudo-Riemannian hyperbolic space of signature $(p,q)$. We prove that if $\Gamma$ is the fundamental group of a closed aspherical $p$-manifold, then the set of…
For any cofinite Fuchsian group $\Gamma\subset {\rm PSL}(2, \mathbb{R})$, we show that any set of $N$ points on the hyperbolic surface $\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H}^2$ determines $\geq C_{\Gamma} \frac{N}{\log N}$ distinct distances for some…
