We establish a fixed point property for a certain class of locally compact groups, including almost connected Lie groups and compact groups of finite abelian width, which act by simplicial isometries on finite rank buildings with measurable…
We define cusp-decomposable manifolds and prove smooth rigidity within this class of manifolds. These manifolds generally do not admit a nonpositively curved metric but can be decomposed into pieces that are diffeomorphic to finite volume,…
This paper shows that the automorphism group of a Beauville surface is a finite solvable group, and describes its possible structure. It relies on results of Singerman on triangle group inclusions, and of Lucchini on generators for special…
We develop an explicit geometric construction of automorphisms of finite fields arising from isogeny cycles. Let $k$ be a finite field, $E/k$ an elliptic curve, and $\ell$ an integer coprime to $\mathrm{char}(k)$. Let $\mathfrak{h}$ be an…
We prove several results concerning automorphism groups of quasismooth complex weighted projective hypersurfaces; these generalize and strengthen existing results for hypersurfaces in ordinary projective space. First, we prove in most cases…
We prove that the automorphism group of an affine, cubic surface with equation $xyz=g(x,y)$ contains ${\mathbb Z}$ as a finite index subgroup. These equations were first studied by Mordell. v.2: small changes, references updated.
An algebraic description of basic discrete symmetries (space inversion P, time reversal T, charge conjugation C and their combinations PT, CP, CT, CPT) is studied. Discrete subgroups {1,P,T,PT} of orthogonal groups of multidimensional…
We describe the outer automorphism group of a one-ended fundamental group of a graph of groups, when edge groups are cyclic, and vertex groups are torsion-free with cyclic centralizers. We show that in this case the outer automorphism group…
We introduce a quantum automorphism group for hypergraphs, which turns out to generalize the quantum automorphism group of Bichon for classical graphs. Further, we show that our quantum automorphism group acts on hypergraph C*-algebras as…
We construct automorphisms of $\C^n$ which map certain discrete sequences one onto another with prescribed finite jet at each point, thus solving a general Mittag-Leffler interpolation problem for automorphisms. Under certain circumstances,…
In the present paper we prove that finite symplectic groups of automorphisms of manifolds of k3^[n] type can be obtained by deforming natural morphisms arising from K3 surfaces if and only if they satisfy a certain numerical condition.
We describe natural abelian extensions of the Lie algebra $\aut(P)$ of infinitesimal automorphisms of a principal bundle over a compact manifold $M$ and discuss their integrability to corresponding Lie group extensions. Already the case of…
We classify compact manifolds of dimension three equipped with a path structure and a fixed contact form (which we refer to as a strict path structure) under the hypothesis that their automorphism group is non-compact. We use a Cartan…
In this paper, we prove the infinite dimensionality of some local and global cohomology groups on abstract Cauchy-Riemann manifolds.
Universal coverings of the orthogonal groups and their extensions are studied in terms of Clifford-Lipschitz groups. An algebraic description of basic discrete symmetries (space inversion $P$, time reversal $T$, charge conjugation $C$ and…
Let X be a compact K\"ahler manifold such that the universal cover admits a compactification. We conjecture that the fundamental group is almost abelian and reduce it to a classical conjecture of Iitaka.
We determine the quantum automorphism groups of finite spaces and find they are all compact quantum groups in the sense of Woronowicz. This solves a problem of Connes for finite spaces.
We extend the notion of an almost flat bundle over a closed Riemannian manifold to bundles over simplicial complexes, and prove that up to a constant factor, this notion is invariant under pullback via maps which induce isomorphisms on…
We study the subvariety of fixed points of an automorphism of a Calogero-Moser space induced by a regular element of finite order of the normalizer of the associated complex reflection group $W$. We determine some of (and conjecturally all)…
We study the real, massive Klein-Gordon field on a $C^\infty$ globally-hyperbolic background space-time with compact Cauchy hypersurfaces. In particular, the parametrization of this system as initiated by Dirac and Kucha\v{r} is put on a…
