We describe a new method of producing equations for the canonical component of representation variety of a knot group into $PSL_2(\mathbb{C})$. Unlike known methods, this one does not involve any polyhedral decomposition or triangulation of…

We consider here 6-regular plane graphs whose faces have size 1, 2 or 3. In Section 2 a practical enumeration method is given that allowed us to enumerate them up to 53 vertices. Subsequently, in Section 3 we enumerate all possible symmetry…

This is a summary of a talk given at the "Conference on Pure and Applied Topology", Isle of Skye, June 24, 2005. It contains an announcement and sketch of proof of the classification of 2-compact groups.

The aim of this work is to study finite dimensional representations of the Lie superalgebra psl(2|2) and their tensor products. In particular, we shall decompose all tensor products involving typical (long) and atypical (short)…

In this paper we give a description of the possible limit sets of finitely generated subgroups of irreducible lattices in $PSL(2,R)^r$.

We generalize quantum Drinfeld Hecke algebras by incorporating a 2-cocycle on the associated finite group. We identify these algebras as specializations of deformations of twisted skew group algebras, giving an explicit connection to…

This survey paper concerns mainly with some asymptotic topological properties of finitely presented discrete groups: quasi-simple filtration (QSF), geometric simple connectivity (GSC), topological inverse-representations, and the notion of…

We introduce the notion of halfspaces associated to a group splitting, and investigate the relationship between the coarse geometry of the halfspaces and the coarse geometry of the group. Roughly speaking, the halfspaces of a group…

We show that the group $PSL(2,R)$ is a spherical subgroup in the group of $C^3$-diffeomorphisms of the circle. Also, the group of automorphisms of a Bruhat--Tits tree is a spherical subgroup in the group of hierarchomorphisms of the tree.

We obtain a classification of discrete series representations of odd general spin groups, generalizing the M{\oe}glin-Tadi\'c classification for classical groups. Using mostly algebraic methods, available in both classical and the odd…

The first part of this paper surveys several characterizations of Teichm\"uller space as a subset of the space of representation of the fundamental group of a surface into PSL(2,R). Special emphasis is put on (bounded) cohomological…

This is an easy-reading which describes few geometric invariants which can be obtained from the group SL(2,R) within the Erlangen program of F.Klein.

We generalize our methodology for computing with Zariski dense subgroups of $\mathrm{SL}(n, \mathbb{Z})$ and $\mathrm{Sp}(n, \mathbb{Z})$, to accommodate input dense subgroups $H$ of $\mathrm{SL}(n, \mathbb{Q})$ and $\mathrm{Sp}(n,…

We study the geometry of hyperconvex representations of hyperbolic groups in ${\rm PSL}(d,\mathbb{C})$ and establish two structural results: a group admitting a hyperconvex representation is virtually isomorphic to a Kleinian group, and its…

We prove that PSL(2,Z[1/p]) gives the first example of groups which are not quasi-isometric to each other but have the same quasi-isometry group. Namely, PSL(2,Z[1/p]) and PSL(2,Z[1/q]) are not quasi-isometric unless p=q, and, independent…

In this paper, we introduce and study five families of Lie groups in degenerate Clifford geometric algebras. These Lie groups preserve the even and odd subspaces and some other subspaces under the adjoint representation and the twisted…

The research in this paper was motivated by one of the most important open problems in the theory of generalized polygons, namely the existence problem for semi-finite thick generalized polygons. We show here that no semi-finite generalized…

We show that the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group of $PSL(2, q)$, or more precisely the group $GT_1(PSL(2, q))$ as previously defined by the author, is the product of an elementary abelian 2-group and several copies of the dihedral group of…

S. Bigelow proved that the braid groups are linear. That is, there is a faithful representation of the braid group into the general linear group of some field. Using this, we deduce from previously known results that the mapping class group…

We extend the refined asymptotics of analytic torsion associated to congruence subgroups of $\operatorname{SL}(n)$ in previous work, to congruence subgroups in a large family of reductive groups. This is applied to give new asymptotics and…
