In this paper we show how to obtain representations of Coxeter groups acting on H^n to certain classical groups. We determine when the kernel of such a representation is torsion-free and thus the quotient a hyperbolic n-manifold.
When the standard representation of a crystallographic Coxeter group is reduced modulo an odd prime p, one obtains a finite group G^p acting on some orthogonal space over Z_p . If the Coxeter group has a string diagram, then G^p will often…
In this paper, first we introduce the notion of reflections on quadratic Rota-Baxter Lie algebras of weight $\lambda$, and show that they give rise to solutions of the classical reflection equation for the corresponding triangular Lie…
Reflexive polytopes form one of the distinguished classes of lattice polytopes. Especially reflexive polytopes which possess the integer decomposition property are of interest. In the present paper, by virtue of the algebraic technique on…
Often it is possible to equip the space of all cone geodesics of a strongly convex cone structure with the structure of a smooth contact manifold. This generalizes the analogous notions for the space of light rays of a Lorentzian spacetime.…
We show that the Coxeter polytopes that have finite volume in their Vinberg domains are exactly the quasiperfect Coxeter polytopes of negative type, i.e. the Coxeter polytopes that are contained in their properly convex Vinberg domain, at…
An axiomatic approach to the representation theory of Coxeter groups and their Hecke algebras was presented in [1]. Combinatorial aspects of this construction are studied in this paper. In particular, the symmetric group case is…
In this article, we study the manifold structure and the relatively hyperbolic structure of right-angled Coxeter groups with planar nerves. We then apply our results to the quasi-isometry problem for this class of right-angled Coxeter…
We prove that convex-cocompact representations of finitely generated groups in the group of isometries of the infinite-dimensional hyperbolic space form an open set in the space of representations, allowing us to deform these…
We study combinatorial modulus on boundaries of hyperbolic Coxeter groups. We give new examples of hyperbolic groups whose boundary satisfies a combinatorial version of the Loewner property, and prove Cannon's conjecture for Coxeter groups.…
We study the problem of bounding the number of cusps of a complex hyperbolic manifold in terms of its volume. Applying algebro-geometric methods using Mumford's work on toroidal compactifications and its generalization due to N. Mok and…
We consider a natural generalisation of the class of hyperbolic Kac-Moody algebras. We describe in detail the conditions under which these algebras are Lorentzian. We also construct their fundamental weights, and analyse whether they…
We define the injectivity radius of a Coxeter polyhedron in H^3 to be half the shortest translation length among hyperbolic/loxodromic elements in the orientation-preserving reflection group. We show that, for finite-volume polyhedra, this…
It is shown how one can apply the classification of the holonomy algebras of Lorentzian manifolds to solve some problems. In particular, a new proof to the classification of Lorentzian manifolds with recurrent curvature tensor is given; the…
We introduce and study certain topological spaces associated with connected rooted graphs. These spaces reflect combinatorial and order theoretic properties of the underlying graph and relate in the case of hyperbolic graphs to Gromov's…
We introduce a new type of generating theorems in General Relativity for anisotropic, static, spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein field equations. The results are used to derive a class of solutions that can serve as new models…
This paper contains a thorough investigation of invariant distributions supported on limit sets of discrete groups acting convex cocompactly on symmetric spaces of negative curvature. It can be considered as a continuation of…
We provide a characterization of the compressed lattice polytopes in terms of their facet defining inequalities and we show that every compressed lattice polytope is affinely isomorphic to a 0/1-polytope. As an application, we characterize…
We consider closed hypersurfaces smoothly immersed in hyperbolic manifolds up to homotopy and commensurability. We prove that if a closed hyperbolic manifold $M$ contains a sequence of asymptotically geodesic hypersurfaces, then $\pi_1(M)$…
Many (if not most) of convex polytopes, important for combinatorial and algebraic geometry, are closely related to secondary polytopes of point configurations, or base polytopes of submodular functions, or their numerous variations and…
