A piece of a labelled graph $\Gamma$ defined by D. Gruber is a labelled path that embeds into $\Gamma$ in two essentially different ways. We prove that graphical $Gr'(\frac{1}{6})$ small cancellation groups whose associated pieces have…
We begin an investigation of supersymmetric theories based on exceptional groups. The flat directions are most easily parameterized using their correspondence with gauge invariant polynomials. Symmetries and holomorphy tightly constrain the…
We study the geometry and dynamics of discrete subgroups $\Gamma$ of $\PSL(3,\mathbb{C})$ with an open invariant set $\Omega \subset \PC^2$ where the action is properly discontinuous and the quotient $\Omega/\Gamma$ contains a connected…
We consider a surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g \geq 3$, either closed or with exactly one puncture. The mapping class group $\Gamma$ of $\Sigma$ acts symplectically on the abelian moduli space $M = \Hom(\pi_1(\Sigma), U(1)) =…
Let M = H^3 / \Gamma be a hyperbolic 3-manifold of finite volume. We show that if H and K are abelian subgroups of \Gamma and g is in \Gamma, then the double coset HgK is separable in \Gamma. As a consequence we prove that if M is a closed,…
We investigate the minimum distance of the error correcting code formed by the homomorphisms between two finite groups $G$ and $H$. We prove some general structural results on how the distance behaves with respect to natural group…
Let $\Gamma$ be a hyperbolic group and G be the isometry group of a Gromov-hyperbolic, properand geodesic metric space. We study the action of the outer automorphism group Out($\Gamma$) onthe set X($\Gamma$,G) of conjugacy classes of…
We propose a new set of IIB type and eleven-dimensional supergravity solutions which consists of the $n$-fold product of two-spaces ${\bf H}^n/\Gamma$ (where ${\bf H}^n$ denotes the product of $n$ upper half-planes $H^2$ equipped with the…
Let $H = \mathrm{SO}(n,1)$ and $A = \{a(t): t \in \mathbb{R}\}$ be a maximal $\mathbb{R}$-split Cartan subgroup of $H$. Let $\Gamma \subset H \times H$ be a nonuniform lattice in $H \times H$ and $X_{\Gamma} : = H \times H/ \Gamma$. Let…
We prove that if $E$ is a compact subset of the unit disk ${\mathbb D}$ in the complex plane, if $E$ contains a sequence of distinct points $a_n\not= 0$ for $n\geq 1$ such that $\lim_{n\to\infty} a_n=0$ and for all $n$ we have $ |a_{n+1}|…
In this paper, we first single out a proper subgroup \Gamma of Sp(4,Z) generated by three elements, which arises from the parallelogram decompositions of translation surfaces in H(2). We then prove that the space H(2)/C* can be identified…
Given a lattice Veech group in the mapping class group of a closed surface $S$, this paper investigates the geometry of $\Gamma$, the associated $\pi_1S$--extension group. We prove that $\Gamma$ is the fundamental group of a bundle with a…
In this paper, we obtain a more precise estimate of Catlin-type distance for smoothly bounded pseudoconvex domain of finite type in $\mathbb{C}^2$. As an application, we get an alternative proof of the Gromov hyperbolicity of this domain…
Let $\lambda \in \mathbb{Q}\setminus \{0, -1\}$ and $l \geq 2$. Denote by $C_{l,\lambda}$ the nonsingular projective algebraic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ with affine equation given by $$y^l=(x-1)(x^2+\lambda).$$ In this paper we give a…
Let $G=PSL(2,\mathbb{R})$, let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in $G$, and let $\mathcal{H}$ be an irreducible unitary representation of $G$ with square-integrable matrix coefficients. A theorem in [Goodman, de la Harpe, Jones 1989] states that the…
Let $G$ be an infinite simple group of finite Morley rank and $\alpha$ a supertight automorphism of $G$ so that the fixed point subgroup $P_n:=C_G(\alpha^n)$ is pseudofinite for all $n\in \mathbb{N}\setminus\{0\}$. It is know (using CFSG)…
We prove that every finitely generated group $G$ discriminated by a locally quasi-convex torsion-free hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ is effectively coherent: that is, presentations for finitely generated subgroups can be computed from the…
We prove that hyperbolic groups with logarithmic separation profiles split over cyclic groups. This shows that such groups can be inductively built from Fuchsian groups and free groups by amalgamations and HNN extensions over finite or…
Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion-free hyperbolic group. We study $\Gamma$--limit groups which, unlike the fundamental case in which $\Gamma$ is free, may not be finitely presentable or geometrically tractable. We define model $\Gamma$--limit…
We prove that for some universal $c$, a non-collinear set of $N>\frac{1}{c}$ points in the Euclidean plane determines at least $c \frac{N}{\log N}$ distinct areas of triangles with one vertex at the origin, as well as at least $c…
