We give a new characterization of partial groups as a subcategory of symmetric (simplicial) sets. This subcategory has an explicit reflection, which permits one to compute colimits in the category of partial groups. We also introduce the…
In this paper we look at a special type of discrete subgroups of $PSL_{n+1}(\Bbb{C})$ called Schottky groups. We develop some basic properties of these groups and their limit set when $n > 1$, and we prove that Schottky groups only occur in…
The torsion index of split simple groups has been extensively studied, notably by Totaro, who calculated the torsion indexes of the spin groups and $E_{8}$ in [5] and [6], respectively. The aim of this paper is to provide upper bounds for…
This paper presents some new Lie groups preserving fixed subspaces of geometric algebras (or Clifford algebras) under the twisted adjoint representation. We consider the cases of subspaces of fixed grades and subspaces determined by the…
In this paper we are interested in computing representations of the fundamental group of a 3-manifold into PSL(3;C) (in particular in PSL(2;C); PSL(3;R) and PU(2; 1)). The representations are obtained by gluing decorated tetrahedra of…
We contribute to the classification of toroidal circle planes and flat Minkowski planes possessing three-dimensional connected groups of automorphisms. When such a group is an almost simple Lie group, we show that it is isomorphic to…
We show that there are at most $O_{n,\epsilon}(H^{n-2+\sqrt{2}+\epsilon})$ monic integer polynomials of degree $n$ having height at most $H$ and Galois group different from the full symmetric group $S_n$, improving on the previous 1973…
We study conjugacy limits of certain of subgroups inside $\SL(2,\R)\ltimes\R^2$. These subgroups have a common feature that any two in the same category are conjugates of each other.
We describe in parallel the Lorentzian homogeneous spaces $G=\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ and $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{psl}(2,\mathbb{R})$, and review some recent results relating the geometry of their quotients by discrete groups.
We discuss some geometric aspects of PSL(2,C), SL(2,C), and the space G of the geodesics of H^3 equipped with some suitable structures of Riemannian holomorphic manifolds of constant sectional curvature. We also observe that G is a…
We present a method for computing complete lists of number fields in cases where the Galois group, as an abstract group, appears as a Galois group in smaller degree. We apply this method to find the twenty-five octic fields with Galois…
We give a complete list of orbifolds uniformised by discrete non-elementary two-generator subgroups of PSL(2,C) without invariant plane whose generators and their commutator have real traces.
We present a classification of the so-called "additive symmetric 2-cocycles" of arbitrary degree and dimension over Z/p, along with a partial result and some conjectures for m-cocycles over Z/p, m > 2. This expands greatly on a result…
In this paper we generalize results of P. Le Duff to genus n hyperelliptic curves. More precisely, let C/Q be a hyperelliptic genus n curve and let J(C) be the associated Jacobian variety. Assume that there exists a prime p such that J(C)…
The present paper studies the homology of the groups $SL_2(k[C])$ and $GL_2(k[C])$ where $C=\overline{C}\setminus\{P_1,\dots,P_s\}$ is a smooth affine curve over an algebraically closed field $k$. It is well-known that these groups act on a…
We study a generalization of the Fuchsian triangle groups to the hyperbolic 3-space, namely, the groups generated by half-turns in three hyperbolic lines. The role of the hyperbolic triangles is now played by the right-angled hexagons. This…
This work presents the tessellations and polytopes from the perspective of both n-dimensional geometry and abstract symmetry groups. It starts with a brief introduction to the terminology and a short motivation. In the first part, it…
We characterize the representations of the fundamental group of a closed surface to $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb C)$ that arise as the holonomy of a branched complex projective structure with fixed branch divisor. In particular, we compute the…
We study branching problem of the metaplectic representation of $Sp(2, \mathbb R)$ under its principle subgroup $SL(2, \mathbb R)$. We find the complete decomposition.
As announced in [arXiv:0908.2596], we show that the non-passive finite simple groups are among the $PSL_2(q)$ with $q-1 \ge 4$ a 2-power. [arXiv:0908.2596]: Baumeister,Stein,Stroth: On Bruck Loops of 2-power Exponent
