A group is said to be stable if it is isomorphic to its automorphism group. We investigate how we can extend centerless groups to construct finite stable groups with nontrivial centers. To this end, we classify all finite stable groups…

We construct affine uniformly Lipschitz actions on $\ell^1$ and $L^1$ for certain groups with hyperbolic features. For acylindrically hyperbolic groups, our actions have unbounded orbits, while for residually finite hyperbolic groups and…

Given any countable group $G$, we construct uncountably many quasi-isometry classes of proper geodesic metric spaces with quasi-isometry group isomorphic to $G$. Moreover, if the group $G$ is a hyperbolic group, the spaces we construct are…

We prove that any $C^2$ complete, orientable, connected, stable area-stationary surface in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$ is either a Euclidean plane or congruent to the hyperbolic paraboloid $t=xy$.

Let $G$ be a group acting properly by isometries and with a strongly contracting element on a geodesic metric space. Let $N$ be an infinite normal subgroup of $G$, and let $\delta_N$ and $\delta_G$ be the growth rates of $N$ and $G$ with…

We prove that the twisted group C*-algebra of an acylindrically hyperbolic group -- not necessarily having trivial finite radical -- has stable rank one.

In this article we produce an example of a non-residually finite group which admits a uniformly proper action on a Gromov hyperbolic space.

A probability-measure-preserving action of a countable group is called stable if its transformation-groupoid absorbs the ergodic hyperfinite equivalence relation of type II_1 under direct product. We show that for a countable group G and…

We present a simple approach to questions of topological orbit equivalence for actions of countable groups on topological and smooth manifolds. For example, for any action of a countable group $\Gamma$ on a topological manifold where the…

A rational group of hermitian type is an algebraic group over the rational numbers whose symmetric space is a hermitian symmetric space. We assume such a group $G$ to be given, which we assume is isotropic. Then, for any rational parabolic…

In this note we extend the concept of topological stability from homeomorphisms to group actions on compact metric spaces, and prove that if an action of a finitely generated group is expansive and has the pseudo-orbit tracing property then…

We extend previous results by Cumplido, Martin and Vaskou on parabolic subgroups of large-type Artin groups to a broader family of two-dimensional Artin groups. In particular, we prove that an arbitrary intersection of parabolic subgroups…

Artin-Tits groups act on a certain delta-hyperbolic complex, called the "additional length complex". For an element of the group, acting loxodromically on this complex is a property analogous to the property of being pseudo-Anosov for…

In 1995, Rips and Sela asked if torsionfree hyperbolic groups admit globally stable cylinders. We establish this property for all residually finite hyperbolic groups and curve graphs of finite-type surfaces. These cylinders are fine…

We extend the characterization of stable subgroups of right-angled Artin groups of Koberda, Mangahas and Taylor to the case of graph products of infinite groups. Specifically, we show that the stable subgroups of such graph products are…

While finite type Artin groups and right-angled Artin groups are well-understood, little is known about more general Artin groups. In this paper we use the action of an infinite type Artin group $A_\Gamma$ on a CAT(0) cube complex to prove…

We describe sufficient conditions which guarantee that a finite set of mapping classes generate a right-angled Artin group quasi-isometrically embedded in the mapping class group. Moreover, under these conditions, the orbit map to…

In this note we give a definition of stable maps into the classifying stack $\BGL_r$ of the general linear group. To support our belief that the definition is the correct one, we show that there are natural boundary morphisms between the…

We study the acylindrical hyperbolicity of the outer automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group $A_\Gamma$. When the defining graph $\Gamma$ has no SIL-pair (separating intersection of links), we obtain a necessary and sufficient…

Clean markings on surfaces were a key component in Masur and Minsky's hierarchy machinery, which proved to be a powerful tool in the study of mapping class groups. We construct a marking graph for irreducible finite-type Artin groups which…
