We prove that the topological complexity of a finite index subgroup of a hyperbolic group is linear in its index. This follows from a more general result relating the size of the quotient of a free cocompact action of hyperbolic group on a…

We prove that if $G$ is a countable discrete group with property (T) over an infinite subgroup $H<G$ which contains an infinite Abelian subgroup or is normal, then $G$ has continuum many orbit inequivalent measure preserving a.e. free…

We complete the classification of isometric cohomogeneity-one actions on all symmetric spaces of noncompact type up to orbit equivalence.

Let X be a proper hyperbolic geodesic metric space and let G be a closed subgroup of the isometry group Iso(X) of X. We show that if G is not amenable then its second continuous bounded cohomology group with coefficients the regular…

Let $K$ be a locally compact field of characteristic 0. Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group defined over $K$, acting algebraically on an algebraic variety $V$. We prove that the action of $G(K)$ (the group of $K$-rational points of $G$) on…

We study polar actions with horizontal sections on the total space of certain principal bundles $G/K\to G/H$ with base a symmetric space of compact type. We classify such actions up to orbit equivalence in many cases. In particular, we…

Let $G$ denote an infinite-dimensional Heisenberg-like group, which is a class of infinite-dimensional step 2 stratified Lie groups. We consider holomorphic functions on $G$ that are square integrable with respect to a heat kernel measure…

In this paper, we show that hyperbolic groups admit proper affine isometric actions on $l^p$-spaces.

Consider a group $\Gamma$ acting on a formal (Fedosov) deformation quantization $\mathbb{A}_\hbar(M)$ of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$. This canonically induces an action of $\Gamma$ by symplectomorphisms on $M$. We examine the reverse…

A class of generalized nonlinear Kolmogorov equations is investigated. We present the group classification of Lie symmetries of the class with respect to the group of equivalence transformations. We find a number of exact solutions of…

We construct a class of II_1 factors M that admit unclassifiably many Cartan subalgebras in the sense that the equivalence relation of being conjugate by an automorphism of M is complete analytic, in particular non Borel. We also construct…

Let $\mathcal G$ denote the space of finitely generated marked groups. We give equivalent characterizations of closed subspaces $\mathcal S\subseteq \mathcal G$ satisfying the following zero-one law: for any sentence $\sigma$ in the…

We study equivalence relations $\mathcal R(\Gamma\curvearrowright G)$ that arise from left translation actions of countable groups on their profinite completions. Under the assumption that the action $\Gamma\curvearrowright G$ is free and…

In this article we prove that the set of torsion-free groups acting by isometries on a hyperbolic metric space whose entropy is bounded above and with a compact quotient is finite. The number of such groups can be estimated in terms of the…

A basic point about hyperbolic groups is that they have "spaces at infinity" which are spaces of homogeneous type in the sense of Coifman and Weiss, and with a lot of self-similarity coming from the group. This short survey deals with some…

Let X be an arbitrary hyperbolic geodesic metric space and let G be a countable non-elementary weakly acylindrical group of isometries of X. We show that the second bounded cohomology group of G with real coefficients or with coefficients…

We prove that the isomorphism relation for separable C$^*$-algebras, and also the relations of complete and $n$-isometry for operator spaces and systems, are Borel reducible to the orbit equivalence relation of a Polish group action on a…

We conclude the classification of cohomogeneity one actions on symmetric spaces of rank one by classifying cohomogeneity one actions on quaternionic hyperbolic spaces up to orbit equivalence. As a by-product of our proof, we produce…

Any finitely generated group $G$ acts on its asymptotic cones in natural ways. The purpose of this paper is to calculate the kernel of such actions. First, we show that when $G$ is acylindrically hyperbolic, the kernel of the natural action…

We prove absolute continuity of "high entropy" hyperbolic invariant measures for smooth actions of higher rank abelian groups assuming that there are no proportional Lyapunov exponents. For actions on tori and infranilmanifolds existence of…
