We introduce and motivate a notion of pseudo-arithmeticity, which possibly applies to all lattices in $\mathrm{PO}(n,1)$ with $n>3$. We further show that under an additional assumption (satisfied in all known cases), the covolumes of these…
The aim of this note is to present a construction of symplectic structures on orientable globally hyperbolic 4-dimensional lorentzian manifolds. Said structures are defined on the manifold itself, not on its cotangent bundle. It also…
We study properties of generic elements of groups of isometries of hyperbolic spaces. Under general combinatorial conditions, we prove that loxodromic elements are generic (i.e. they have full density with respect to counting in balls for…
We establish new results on the weak containment of quasi-regular and Koopman representations of a second countable locally compact group $G$ associated with non-singular $G$-spaces. We deduce that any two boundary representations of a…
In this paper we use techniques from convex projective geometry to produce many new examples of thin subgroups of lattices in special linear groups that are isomorphic to the fundamental groups of finite volume hyperbolic manifolds. More…
We determine the maximal hyperbolic reflection groups associated to the quadratic forms $-3x_0^2 + x_1^2 + ... + x_n^2$, $n \ge 2$, and present the Coxeter schemes of their fundamental polyhedra. These groups exist in dimensions up to 13,…
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 characterize relatively norm compact sets in the regular $C^*$-algebra of finitely generated Coxeter groups using a geometrically defined positive semigroup acting on the algebra.
We complete the classification of compact hyperbolic Coxeter $d$-polytopes with $d+4$ facets for $d=4$ and $5$. By previous work of Felikson and Tumarkin, the only remaining dimension where new polytopes may arise is $d=6$. We derive a new…
A geometric interpretation is given for certain elliptic-hyperbolic systems in the plane. Among several examples, one which reduces in the elliptic region to the equations for harmonic 1-forms on the projective disc is studied in detail. A…
We consider a compact hyperbolic antiprism. It is a convex polyhedron with $2n$ vertices in the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$. This polyhedron has a symmetry group $S_{2n}$ generated by a mirror-rotational symmetry of order $2n$, i.e.…
The smallest three hyperbolic compact arithmetic 5-orbifolds can be derived from two compact Coxeter polytops which are combinatorially simplicial prisms (or complete orthoschemes of degree $d=1$) in the five dimensional hyperbolic space…
Let W be a finite group generated by unitary reflections and A be the set of reflecting hyperplanes. We will give a characterization of the logarithmic differential forms with poles along A in terms of anti-invariant differential forms. If…
Given any Coxeter group, we define rigid reflections and rigid roots using non-self-intersecting curves on a Riemann surface with labeled curves. When the Coxeter group arises from an acyclic quiver, they are related to the rigid…
In this paper we obtain new upper bounds on volumes of right-angled polyhedra in hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$ in three different cases: for ideal polyhedra with all vertices on the ideal hyperbolic boundary, for compact polytopes with…
We prove that numerous negatively curved simply connected locally compact polyhedral complexes, admitting a discrete cocompact group of automorphisms, have automorphism groups which are locally compact, uncountable, non linear and virtually…
Consider the Poincare disc model for hyperbolic geometry. In this paper, a convenient computational formula is developed along with an aesthetic geometric interpretation. Two proofs, one geometric and one analytical, of each result are…
We give compact extended formulations for the packing and partitioning orbitopes (with respect to the full symmetric group) described and analyzed in (Kaibel and Pfetsch, 2008). These polytopes are the convex hulls of all 0/1-matrices with…
We describe and study the loci equidistant from finitely many points in the so-called complex hyperbolic geometry, i.e., in the geometry of a holomorphic $2$-ball $\Bbb B$. In particular, we show that the bisectors (= the loci equidistant…
Anosov representations of word hyperbolic groups into higher-rank semisimple Lie groups are representations with finite kernel and discrete image that have strong analogies with convex cocompact representations into rank-one Lie groups.…
