In this paper we introduce an inverse semigroup $\mathcal{S}(E,C)$ associated to a separated graph $(E,C)$ and describe its internal structure. In particular we show that it is strongly $E^*$-unitary and can be realized as a partial…

A Schreier decoration is a combinatorial coding of an action of the free group $F_d$ on the vertex set of a $2d$-regular graph. We investigate whether a Schreier decoration exists on various countably infinite transitive graphs as a factor…

Given an arbitrary graph $E$ we investigate the relationship between $E$ and the groupoid $G_E$. We show that there is a lattice isomorphism between the lattice of pairs $(H, S)$, where $H$ is a hereditary and saturated set of vertices and…

Integer lattice gas automata can be utilized as building blocks in statistical mechanics. The presented deterministic and reversible automaton generates semiclassical statistical distributions. A possible approach to Bose-Einstein…

Directed graphs have long been used to gain understanding of the structure of semigroups, and recently the structure of directed graph semigroups has been investigated resulting in a characterization theorem and an analog of Fruct's…

We determine the structure of finitely generated groups which are quasi-isometric to symmetric spaces of noncompact type, allowing Euclidean de Rham factors If $X$ is a symmetric space of noncompact type with no Euclidean de Rham factor,…

We study quasiisometric embeddings between finite-dimensional CAT(0) cube complexes. More specifically, we introduce geometric branching conditions under which flats in the domain, not necessarily of top rank, are mapped within finite…

Given a lattice $\Lambda$ in a locally compact abelian group $G$ and a measurable subset $\Omega$ with finite and positive measure, then the set of characters associated to the dual lattice form a frame for $L^2(\Omega)$ if and only if the…

We introduce semidistrim lattices, a simultaneous generalization of semidistributive and trim lattices that preserves many of their common properties. We prove that the elements of a semidistrim lattice correspond to the independent sets in…

We consider Euclidean lattices spanned by images of algebraic conjugates of an algebraic number under Minkowski embedding, investigating their rank, properties of their automorphism groups and sets of minimal vectors. We are especially…

We study the behaviour of the minimal slope of Euclidean lattices under tensor product. A general conjecture predicts that $\mu_{min}(L \otimes M) = \mu_{min}(L)\mu_{min}(M)$ for all Euclidean lattices $L$ and $M$. We prove that this is the…

A discrete subgroup $\Gamma$ of a locally compact group $H$ is called a uniform lattice if the quotient $H/\Gamma$ is compact. Such an $H$ is called an envelope of $\Gamma$. In this paper we study the problem of classifying envelopes of…

The automorphism groups of integral Lorentzian lattices act by isometries on hyperbolic space with finite covolume. In the case of reflective integral lattices, the automorphism groups are commensurable to arithmetic hyperbolic reflection…

In this paper, we investigate finitely generated groups of isometries of CAT(0) spaces containing some central hyperbolic isometry, and study CAT(0) groups. We show that every CAT(0) group $\Gamma$ has the semi-direct product structure…

We characterize those semilattices that give rise to Boolean spaces on their associated spaces of ultrafilters. The class of 0-disjunctive semilattices, important in the theory of congruence-free inverse semigroups, plays a distinguished…

It is shown that, given a lattice H in a totally disconnected, locally compact group G, the contraction subgroups in G and the values of the scale function on G are determined by their restrictions to H. Group theoretic properties intrinsic…

We study the general theory of asymptotically CAT(0) groups, explaining why such a group has finitely many conjugacy classes of finite subgroups, is $F_\infty$ and has solvable word problem. We provide techniques to combine asymptotically…

We show that twin building lattices are undistorted in their ambient group; equivalently, the orbit map of the lattice to the product of the associated twin buildings is a quasi-isometric embedding. As a consequence, we provide an estimate…

Let $\Gamma$ be an irreducible lattice in a product of n infinite irreducible complete Kac-Moody groups of simply laced type over finite fields. We show that if n is at least 3, then each Kac-Moody groups is in fact a simple algebraic group…

We say that a Euclidean lattice in $\mathbb R^n$ is permutation invariant if its automorphism group has non-trivial intersection with the symmetric group $S_n$, i.e., if the lattice is closed under the action of some non-identity elements…
