A conjecture proposed by Gaetz and Gao asserts that the Cayley graph of any Coxeter group satisfies the strong hull property. In this paper, we prove this conjecture for all affine irreducible Coxeter groups of rank 3. Our approach exploits…

The paper is devoted to a study of certain fixed point properties, and their relatives, in the context of full automorphism groups of countable rooted trees. Namely, we study Serre's property (FA'), also called unsplittability, property…

We prove a character sum identity for Coxeter arrangements which is a finite field analogue of Macdonald's conjecture proved by Opdam.

In this paper, we study boundary actions of CAT(0) spaces from a point of view of topological dynamics and $C^*$-algebras. First, we investigate the actions of right-angled Coexter groups and right-angled Artin groups with finite defining…

We prove that finitely generated amenable groups acting on CAT(0) spaces satisfy the following alternative: either every action on a geodesically complete CAT(0) space with bounded geometry (or finite dimension) has a global fixed point, or…

A Coxeter system is an ordered pair (W,S) where S is the generating set in a particular type of presentation for the Coxeter group W. A subgroup of W is called special if it is generated by a subset of S. Amalgamated product decompositions…

We consider the sequence of powers of a positive definite function on a discrete group. Taking inspiration from random walks on compact quantum groups, we give several examples of situations where a cut-off phenomenon occurs for this…

We prove a local-to-global result for fixed points of groups acting on affine buildings (possibly non-discrete) of types $\tilde{A}_2$ or $\tilde{C}_2$. In the discrete case, our theorem establishes the corresponding special cases of a…

For the Coxeter groups of ADE type, we provide a construction of their Coxeter planes as fixed points of actions of hypergroups associated to Verlinde fusion rings. This builds upon the well-known ADE classification of…

A group of bijections G acting on a set X is said with fixed points (abbreviated as gaf from the french "groupe {\`a} points fixes") if any element of G has at least one fixed point in X. The G group is said with a common fixed point…

The Dunkl operators associated to a necessarily finite Coxeter group acting on a Euclidean space are generalized to any finite group using the techniques of non-commutative geometry, as introduced by the authors to view the usual Dunkl…

Finite rank median spaces are a simultaneous generalisation of finite dimensional ${\rm CAT}(0)$ cube complexes and real trees. If $\Gamma$ is an irreducible lattice in a product of rank one simple Lie groups, we show that every action of…

We provide local recognition results for the reflection graphs on spherical Coxeter groups. In particular, we study the case $F_4$ which is locally recognizable under additional constraints only. It is then demonstrated in the cases $A_n$…

We prove that a non-spherical irreducible Coxeter group is (directly) indecomposable and that a non-spherical and non-affine Coxeter group is strongly indecomposable in the sense that all its finite index subgroups are (directly)…

We construct a finitely presented group with property (T) which can not act on on reasonable spaces. Such group is constructed using an generalization of Hall embedding theorem, where property (T) is added at the expense of weakening the…

We show that for every finite subgroup $G$ of $Aut(F_n)$, the fixed point subcomplex $X_n^G$ is contractible, where $F_n$ is the free group on $n$ letters and $X_n$ is the spine of ``auter space'' constructed by Hatcher and Vogtmann. In…

We prove a number of results about profinite completions of Coxeter groups. For example we prove Coxeter groups are good in the sense of Serre and that various splittings of Coxeter groups arising from actions on trees are detected by the…

Let f_n be a sequence of analytic functions in a domain U with a common attracting fixed point z_0. Suppose that f_n converges to f_0 uniformly on each compact subset of U and that z_0 is a Siegel point of f_0. We establish a sufficient…

We give a criterion for group elements to have fixed points with respect to a semi-simple action on a complete CAT(0) space of finite topological dimension. As an application, we show that Thompson's group T and various generalizations of…

Applying a classical theorem of Smith, we show that the poset property of being Gorenstein$^*$ over $\mathbb{Z}_2$ is inherited by the subposet of fixed points under an involutive poset automorphism. As an application, we prove that every…
