We find a recursive algorithm for computing the precise centralizers of the complex orthogonal and symplectic groups, and hence the isotropy groups, with respect to the similarity transformation on the spaces of skew-symmetric and…

Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion free discrete group acting cocompactly on a two dimensional euclidean building $\Delta$. The centralizer of an element of $\Gamma$ is either a Bieberbach group or is described by a finite graph of finite cyclic…

In this paper we classify reflection subgroups of Euclidean Coxeter groups.

Meta-centralizers of non-locally compact group algebras are studied. Theorems about their representations with the help of families of generalized measures are proved. Isomorphisms of group algebras are investigated in relation with…

We show, by an elementary and explicit construction, that the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of certain symplectic manifolds, endowed with Hofer's metric, contains subgroups quasi-isometric to Euclidean spaces of arbitrary dimension.

We study structural properties and the harmonic analysis of discrete subgroups of the Euclidean group. In particular, we 1. obtain an efficient description of their dual space, 2. develop Fourier analysis methods for periodic mappings on…

Exact expressions for probability densities of conjugate pair separation in euclidean isometries are obtained, for the cosmic crystallography.These are the theoretical counterparts of the mean histograms arising from computer simulation of…

We provide the full classification of equidistant decomposition of a two-dimensional Euclidean plane and a two-dimensional sphere.

Crystallographic tilings of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^n$ are defined as simple tilings whose group of isometric automorphisms is crystallographic. To classify crystallographic tilings by their automorphism groups it is necessary to…

In the paper we present a new, uniform and comprehensive description of centralizers of the maximal regular subgroups in compact simple Lie groups of all types and ranks. The centralizer is either a direct product of finite cyclic groups, a…

In this paper we give local and global parametric classifications of a class of Einstein submanifolds of Euclidean space. The highlight is for submanifolds of codimension two since in this case our assumptions are only of intrinsic nature.

We investigate the subgroup structure of the hyperoctahedral group in six dimensions. In particular, we study the subgroups isomorphic to the icosahedral group. We classify the orthogonal crystallographic representations of the icosahedral…

The paper surveys highlights of the ongoing program to classify discrete polyhedral structures in Euclidean 3-space by distinguished transitivity properties of their symmetry groups, focussing in particular on various aspects of the…

In this note, we give a remark on the structure of centralizers of involutions in Coxeter groups.

The affine and Euclidean normalizers of the subperiodic groups, the Frieze groups, the rod groups, and the layer groups, are derived and listed. For the layer groups, the special metrics used for plane group Euclidean normalizers have been…

Given an orthogonal representation of a compact group, we show that any element of the connected component of the isometry group of the orbit space lifts to an equivariant isometry of the original Euclidean space. Corollaries include a…

In this note we provide a direct proof of the complete classification of conformally flat isoparametric submanifolds of Euclidean space.

We constract various subgroups of the group of isometries of universal Urysohn spaces (unique complete separable metric space which is iniversal and homogeneous) including abelian groups which act transitively, and free groups which are…

We consider groups $\mathbb{I}$ of isometries of ultrametric Urysohn spaces $\mathbb{U}$. Such spaces $\mathbb{U}$ admit transparent realizations as boundaries of certain $R$-trees and the groups $\mathbb{I}$ are groups of automorphisms of…

This survey is based on a series of lectures that we gave at MSRI in Spring 2015 and on a series of papers, mostly written jointly with Joan Porti. Our goal here is to: 1. Describe a class of discrete subgroups $\Gamma<G$ of higher rank…
