In this article we introduce the notion of a \textit{regular partition} of a Coxeter group. We develop the theory of these partitions, and show that the class of regular partitions is essentially equivalent to the class of automata (not…

We determine when certain natural classes of subgroups of right-angled Coxeter groups (RACGs) and right-angled Artin groups (RAAGs) are themselves RAAGs. We characterize finite-index visual RAAG subgroups of 2-dimensional RACGs. As an…

We prove that, for an Enriques surface in odd characteristic, the automorphism group is finitely generated and it acts on the effective nef cone with a rational polyhedral fundamental domain. We also construct a smooth projective surface in…

We prove the motivic classes in the motivic cohomology groups of Picard modular surfaces with non-trivial coefficients constructed in a paper of Loeffler\textendash Skinner\textendash Zerbes are in the motivic cohomology groups of the…

We investigate the combinatorial and geometric properties of automorphism groups of universal right-angled Coxeter groups, which are the automorphism groups of free products of copies of Z_2. It is currently an open question as to whether…

We define arithmetical and dynamical degrees for dynamical systems with several rational maps on projective varieties, study their properties and relations, and prove the existence of a canonical height function associated with divisorial…

In this work we characterise Cayley graphs of Coxeter groups with respect to the standard generating set that admit uncountable vertex stabilisers. As a corollary, we fully identify finitely generated Coxeter groups for which the…

A Coxeter polytope is a convex polytope in a real projective space equipped with linear reflections in its facets, such that the orbits of the polytope under the action of the group generated by the linear reflections tessellate a convex…

The dynamical degrees of a rational map $f:X\dashrightarrow X$ are fundamental invariants describing the rate of growth of the action of iterates of $f$ on the cohomology of $X$. When $f$ has nonempty indeterminacy set, these quantities can…

We show that Mukai's classification of finite groups which may act symplectically on a complex K3 surface extends to positive characteristic $p$ under the assumptions that (i) the order of the group is coprime to $p$ and (ii) either the…

In previous papers, the author showed that in many cases of interest there exists an isomorphism between certain path algebras related to the structure of the subregular J-rings of Coxeter systems and matrix rings over a free product of…

We prove that dynamical degrees of rational self-maps on projective varieties can be interpreted as spectral radii of naturally defined operators on suitable Banach spaces. Generalizing Shokurov's notion of b-divisors, we consider the space…

Given an irreducible well-generated complex reflection group W with Coxeter number h, we call a Coxeter element any regular element (in the sense of Springer) of order h in W; this is a slight extension of the most common notion of Coxeter…

The IA-automorphism group is the group of automorphisms of the free group $F_n$ that act trivially on the abelianization $F_n^{\mathrm{ab}}$. This group is in many ways analoguous to Torelli groups of surfaces and their higher dimensional…

Dynamical degrees and spectra can serve to distinguish birational automorphism groups of varieties in quantitative, as opposed to only qualitative, ways. We introduce and discuss some properties of those degrees and the Cremona degrees,…

Let phi and psi be endomorphisms of the projective line of degree at least 2, defined over a noetherian commutative ring R with unity. From a dynamical perspective, a significant question is to determine whether phi and psi are conjugate…

We prove that each injective simplicial map from the arc complex of a compact, connected, nonorientable surface with nonempty boundary to itself is induced by a homeomorphism of the surface. We also prove that the automorphism group of the…

This thesis deals with automorphisms of real algebraic surfaces, which are polynomial transformations with a polynomial inverse. The main concern is whether their restriction to the real locus reflects all the richness of the complex…

For a dominant rational self-map on a smooth projective variety defined over a number field, Shu Kawaguchi and Joseph H. Silverman conjectured that the dynamical degree is equal to the arithmetic degree at a rational point whose forward…

Let f be a rational mapping of a space X . The complexity of (f,X) as a dynamical system is measured by the dynamical degrees $\delta_p(f)$, $1\le p\le {\rm dim}(X)$. We give the definition of the dynamical degrees show how they are…
