We show that every sequence of torsion-free arithmetic congruence lattices in $\mathrm{PGL}(2,\mathbb R)$ or $\mathrm{PGL}(2,\mathbb C)$ satisfies a strong quantitative version of the Limit Multiplicity property. We deduce that for $R>0$ in…

Let $G=SL_2(\mathbb R)^d$ and $\Gamma=\Gamma_0^d$ with $\Gamma_0$ a lattice in $SL_2(\mathbb R)$. Let $S$ be any "curved" submanifold of small codimension of a maximal horospherical subgroup of $G$ relative to an $\mathbb R$-diagonalizable…

Let $\Gamma$ be an irreducible lattice in a product of two locally compact groups and assume that $\Gamma$ is densely embedded in a profinite group $K$. We give necessary conditions which imply that the left translation action…

Let $\rho$ be a maximal representation of a uniform lattice $\Gamma\subset{\rm SU}(n,1)$, $n\geq 2$, in a classical Lie group of Hermitian type $H$. We prove that necessarily $H={\rm SU}(p,q)$ with $p\geq qn$ and there exists a holomorphic…

Let Gamma be an S-arithmetic subgroup of a solvable algebraic group G over an algebraic number field F, such that the finite set S contains at least one place that is nonarchimedean. We construct a certain group H, such that if L is any…

We show that an isometric action of a torsion-free uniform lattice $\Gamma$ on hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$ can be metrically approximated by geometric actions of $\Gamma$ on $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ cube complexes, provided that either $n$ is…

We prove that the covolume of any quasi-arithmetic hyperbolic lattice (a notion that generalizes the definition of arithmetic subgroups) is a rational multiple of the covolume of an arithmetic subgroup. As a corollary, we obtain a good…

We show that, if $\Gamma$ is a point group of $\mathbb{R}^{k+1}$ of order two for some $k\geq 2$ and $\mathcal S$ is a $k$-pseudomanifold which has a free automorphism of order two, then either $\mathcal S$ has a $\Gamma$-symmetric…

Let G be the identity component of SO(n,1), acting linearly on a finite dimensional real vector space V. Consider a vector w_0 in V such that the stabilizer of w_0 is a symmetric subgroup of G or the stabilizer of the line Rw_0 is a…

We prove the three embeddedness results as follows. $({\rm i})$ Let $\Gamma_{2m+1}$ be a piecewise geodesic Jordan curve with $2m+1$ vertices in $\mathbb{R}^n$, where $m$ is an integer $\geq2$. Then the total curvature of…

If $\Gamma$ is an irreducible non-uniform higher-rank characteristic zero arithmetic lattice (for example, $SL_n(\mathbb{Z})$, $n \geq 3$) and $\Lambda$ is a finitely generated group that is elementarily equivalent to $\Gamma$, then…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated group which is hyperbolic relative to a finite family $\{H_1,...,H_n\}$ of subgroups. We prove that $\Gamma$ is uniformly embeddable in a Hilbert space if and only if each subgroup $H_i$ is uniformly…

We characterize which cobounded quasigeodesics in the Teichmueller space T of a closed surface are at bounded distance from a geodesic. More generally, given a cobounded lipschitz path gamma in T, we show that gamma is a quasigeodesic with…

We prove that if $\Gamma$ is a lattice in the group of isometries of a symmetric space of non-compact type without euclidean factors, then the virtual cohomological dimension of $\Gamma$ equals its proper geometric dimension.

In this article, we study geometric aspects of semi-arithmetic Riemann surfaces by means of number theory and hyperbolic geometry. First, we show the existence of infinitely many semi-arithmetic Riemann surfaces of various shapes and prove…

We show that a minimal homogeneous submanifold $M^n$, $n\geq 5$, of a hyperbolic space up to codimension two is totally geodesic.

The purpose of this article is to produce effective versions of some rigidity results in algebra and geometry. On the geometric side, we focus on the spectrum of primitive geodesic lengths (resp., complex lengths) for arithmetic hyperbolic…

We identify the finitely many arithmetic lattices $\Gamma$ in the orientation preserving isometry group of hyperbolic $3$-space $\mathbb{H}^3$ generated by an element of order $4$ and and element of order $p\geq 2$. Thus $\Gamma$ has a…
