We prove a homological stability theorem for families of discrete groups (e.g. mapping class groups, automorphism groups of free groups, braid groups) with coefficients in a sequence of irreducible algebraic representations of arithmetic…

In recent years, there has been a considerable amount of interest in stability of equations and their corresponding groups. Here, we initiate the systematic study of the quantitative aspect of this theory. We develop a novel method,…

We study $2$-dimensional Artin groups of hyperbolic type from the viewpoint of measure equivalence, and establish rigidity theorems. We first prove that they are boundary amenable. So is every group acting discretely by simplicial…

For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…

We introduce a new model of random Artin groups. The two variables we consider are the rank of the Artin groups and the set of permitted coefficients of their defining graphs. The heart of our model is to control the speed at which we make…

In this paper, we introduce a notion of stable coarse algebras for metric spaces with bounded geometry, and formulate the twisted coarse Baum--Connes conjecture with respect to stable coarse algebras. We prove permanence properties of this…

Given an Artin group $A$ and a parabolic subgroup $P$, we study if every two elements of $P$ that are conjugate in $A$, are also conjugate in $P$. We provide an algorithm to solve this decision problem if $A$ satisfies three properties that…

We show that stable equivalences between Artin algebras without nodes preserve homological data that provide upper bounds for finitistic dimension, and that stable equivalences between Artin algebras with positive $\nu$-dominant dimensions…

We introduce and study a group formation game in which individuals/agents, driven by self-interest, team up in disjoint groups so as to be in groups of high collective strength. This strength could be group identity, reputation, or…

We study conditions for the existence of stable and group-strategy-proof mechanisms in a many-to-one matching model with contracts if students' preferences are monotone in contract terms. We show that "equivalence", properly defined, to a…

We study stability of metric approximations of countable groups with respect to groups endowed with ultrametrics, the main case study being a $p$-adic analogue of Ulam stability, where we take $GL_n(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ as approximating groups…

Several sequences of free cumulants that count binary plane trees correspond to sequences of classical cumulants that count the decreasing versions of the same trees. Using two new operations on colored binary plane trees that we call…

We conjecture that the word problem of Artin-Tits groups can be solved without introducing trivial factors ss^{-1} or s^{-1}s. Here we make this statement precise and explain how it can be seen as a weak form of hyperbolicity. We prove the…

We extend the construction of multiplicative representations for a free group G introduced by Kuhn and Steger (Isr. J., (144) 2004) in such a way that the new class Mult(G) so defined is stable under taking the finite direct sum, under…

We prove the $\Sigma^1$-conjecture for two families of Artin groups: Artin groups such that there exists a prime number $p$ dividing $\frac{l(e)}{2}$ for every edge $e$ with even label $>2$ and balanced Artin groups. The family of balanced…

According to the Tits conjecture proved by Crisp and Paris, [CP], the subgroups of the braid group generated by proper powers of the Artin elements are presented by the commutators of generators which are powers of commuting elements. Hence…

We prove a general homological stability theorem for certain families of groups equipped with product maps, followed by two theorems of a new kind that give information about the last two homology groups outside the stable range. (These…

We describe the development of the theory of automatic groups. We begin with a historical introduction, define the concepts of automatic, biautomatic and combable groups, derive basic properties, then explain how hyperbolic groups and the…

Let $G$ be a right-angled Artin group with defining graph $\Gamma$ and let $H$ be a finitely generated group quasi-isometric to $G(\Gamma)$. We show if $G$ satisfies (1) its outer automorphism group is finite; (2) $\Gamma$ does not have…

Let $G=G_1\ast\dots\ast G_k\ast F$ be a countable group which splits as a free product, where all groups $G_i$ are freely indecomposable and not isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}$, and $F$ is a finitely generated free group. If for all…
