A relatively hyperbolic group $G$ is said to be QCERF if all finitely generated relatively quasiconvex subgroups are closed in the profinite topology on $G$. Assume that $G$ is a QCERF relatively hyperbolic group with double coset separable…

The rank of a hierarchically hyperbolic space is the maximal number of unbounded factors in a standard product region. For hierarchically hyperbolic groups, this coincides with the maximal dimension of a quasiflat. Examples for which the…

Let G be a complete Kac-Moody group over a finite field. It is known that G possesses a BN-pair structure, all of whose parabolic subgroups are open in G. We show that, conversely, every open subgroup of G is contained with finite index in…

In this article, we study the manifold structure and the relatively hyperbolic structure of right-angled Coxeter groups with planar nerves. We then apply our results to the quasi-isometry problem for this class of right-angled Coxeter…

We prove the following: there are infinitely many finite-covolume (resp. cocompact) Coxeter groups acting on hyperbolic space H^n for every n < 20 (resp. n < 7). When n=7 or 8, they may be taken to be nonarithmetic. Furthermore, for 1 < n <…

We introduce the notion of two-dimensional Coxeter system and show that parabolic subgroups of GL_n(F_2) can be described by an appropriate two-dimensional Coxeter system.

We classify four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFTs whose Seiberg-Witten (SW) geometries can be written as hyperelliptic families. By using special K\"ahler condition of SW geometry, we reduce the problem to one parameter quasi-homogeneous…

Despite the significance of the notion of parabolic closures in Coxeter groups of finite ranks, the parabolic closure is not guaranteed to exist as a parabolic subgroup in a general case. In this paper, first we give a concrete example to…

We prove that any word hyperbolic group which is virtually compact special (in the sense of Haglund and Wise) is conjugacy separable. As a consequence we deduce that all word hyperbolic Coxeter groups and many classical small cancellation…

Let X be a space of constant curvature and P be a convex polyhedron in X. A Coxeter decomposition of the polyhedron P is a decomposition of P into finitely many Coxeter polyhedra, such that any two polyhedra having a common facet are…

The aim of this note is to prove that the parabolic closure of any subset of a Coxeter group is a parabolic subgroup. To obtain that, several technical lemmas on the root system of a parabolic subgroup are established.

For any Coxeter system $(W,S)$ of rank $n$, we introduce an abstract boolean complex (simplicial poset) of dimension $2n-1$ that contains the Coxeter complex as a relative subcomplex. Faces are indexed by triples $(I,w,J)$, where $I$ and…

We show that, if a building is endowed with its complete system of apartments, and if each panel is contained in at least four chambers, then the intersection of two apartments can be any convex subcomplex contained in an apartment. This…

We introduce structures which model quotients of buildings by type-preserving group actions. These structures, which we call W-groupoids for W a Coxeter group, generalize Bruhat decompositions, chambers systems of type M, Tits amalgams, and…

We observe that a large part of the volume of a hyperbolic polyhedron is taken by a tubular neighbourhood of its boundary, and use this to give a new proof for the finiteness of arithmetic maximal reflection groups following a recent work…
