We prove that every finite subgroup of $GL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$ can be realized as the Veech group of some translation surface.

We establish, for every family of orthogonal polynomials in the $ q $-Askey scheme and the Askey scheme, a combinatorial model for mixed moments and coefficients in terms of paths on the lecture hall graph. This generalizes the previous…

This short note shows how the Novikov conjecture for mapping class groups follows from a theorem of Kato and a result theorem of Hamenstadt.

We generalise the definition of a group algebra so that it makes sense for non-locally compact topological groups, in particular, we require that the representation theory of the group algebra is isomorphic (in the sense of Gelfand-Raikov)…

We construct the first examples of normal subgroups of mapping class groups that are isomorphic to non-free right-angled Artin groups. Our construction also gives normal, non-free right-angled Artin subgroups of other groups, such as braid…

Kanel-Belov and Kontsevich's conjecture in \cite[Conjecture 1]{BeKo} is proved: The automorphism group of the $n$-th Weyl algebra is isomorphic to the Poisson automorphism group of the $n$-th Poisson Weyl algebra.

We lay the foundations for the study of relatively quasiconvex subgroups of relatively hyperbolic groups. These foundations require that we first work out a coherent theory of countable relatively hyperbolic groups (not necessarily finitely…

We construct a geometric model for the mapping class group M of a non-exceptional oriented surface of finite type and use it to show that the action of M on the compact Hausdorff space of complete geodesic laminations is topologically…

We construct new monomorphisms between mapping class groups of surfaces. The first family of examples injects the mapping class group of a closed surface into that of a different closed surface. The second family of examples are defined on…

It is known that no length or time measurements are possible in sub-Planckian regions of spacetime. The Volovich hypothesis postulates that the micro-geometry of spacetime may therefore be assumed to be non-archimedean. In this letter, the…

In this paper we give a geometric proof of the Karpelevich's theorem that asserts that a semisimple Lie subgroup of isometries, of a symmetric space of non compact type, has a totally geodesic orbit. In fact, this is equivalent to a…

In this paper, we prove a combination theorem for a relatively acylindrical graph of relatively hyperbolic groups (Theorem 1.1). Here, we are extending the technique of [Tom21] and constructing Bowditch boundary of the fundamental group of…

It is proved that, for a wide class of topological abelian groups (locally quasi--convex groups for which the canonical evaluation from the group into its Pontryagin bidual group is onto) the arc component of the group is exactly the union…

A combinatorial map is a connected topological graph cellularly embedded in a surface. This monograph concentrates on the automorphism group of a map, which is related to the automorphism group of a Klein surface and a Smarandache manifold,…

We describe the structure of hyperelliptic Rauzy diagrams and hyperelliptic Rauzy-Veech groups. In particular, this provides a solution of the hyperelliptic cases of a conjecture of Zorich on the Zariski closure of Rauzy-Veech groups.

We classify the groups quasi-isometric to a group generated by finite-order elements within the class of one-ended hyperbolic groups which are not Fuchsian and whose JSJ decomposition over two-ended subgroups does not contain rigid vertex…

Consider the following classes of pairs consisting of a group and a finite collection of subgroups: $\mathcal{C}= \left\{ (G,\mathcal H) \mid \text{$\mathcal{H}$ is hyperbolically embedded in $G$} \right\}$ and $ \mathcal{D}= \left\{…

By a theorem of Thurston, in the subgroup of the mapping class group generated by Dehn twists around two curves that fill, every element not conjugate to a power of one of the twist is pseudo-Anosov. We prove an analogue of this theorem for…

Mishchenko's theorem states that piecewise smooth and Lie algebroid cohomology of a transitive Lie algebroid defined over a combinatorial manifold are isomorphic. In this paper, we describe two applications of that result. The first…

We develop a new orbit equivalence framework for holomorphically mating the dynamics of complex polynomials with that of Kleinian surface groups. We show that the only torsion-free Fuchsian groups that can be thus mated are punctured sphere…
