Let $\Gamma \stackrel{i}{\hookrightarrow} L$ be a lattice in the real simple Lie group $L$. If $L$ is of rank at least 2 (respectively locally isomorphic to $Sp(n,1)$) any unbounded morphism $\rho: \Gamma \longrightarrow G$ into a simple…

The article establishes a long list of rigidity properties of lattices in G = SO(n,1) with n>=3 and G = SU(n,1) with n>=2 that are analogous to superrigidity of lattices in higher-rank Lie groups. The arguments are set in the context of…

We show the local rigidity of the natural action of the Borel subgroup of SO_+(n,1) on a cocompact quotient of SO_+(n,1) for n>2.

Let G be either SU(p,2) with p>=2, Sp(2,R) or SO(p,2) with p>=3. The symmetric spaces associated to these G's are the classical bounded symmetric domains of rank 2, with the exceptions of SO*(8)/U(4) and SO*(10)/U(5). Using the…

We prove the locally differentiable rigidity of generic partially hyperbolic abelian algebraic high-rank actions on compact homogeneous spaces obtained from split symplectic Lie groups. We also gave a non-generic action rigidity example on…

In this note, we study deformations of quaternionic hyperbolic lattices in larger quaternionic hyperbolic spaces and prove local rigidity results. On the other hand, surface groups are shown to be more flexible in quaternionic hyperbolic…

The aim of this note is to give a geometric proof for classical local rigidity of lattices in semisimple Lie groups. We are reproving well known results in a more geometric (and hopefully clearer) way.

This work is motivated by an investigation into whether, and if so how, certain well known facts about Lie groups manifest in the context of group schemes over rings of integers of local fields. There are the following well-known relations…

Discrete subgroups of SL(2,R) are well understood, and classified by the geometry of the corresponding hyperbolic surfaces. Discrete subgroups of higher-rank semisimple Lie groups, such as SL(n,R) for n>2, remain more mysterious. While…

Let $\rho$ be a maximal representation of a uniform lattice $\Gamma\subset{\rm SU}(n,1)$, $n\geq 2$, in a classical Lie group of Hermitian type $H$. We prove that necessarily $H={\rm SU}(p,q)$ with $p\geq qn$ and there exists a holomorphic…

We consider partially hyperbolic abelian algebraic high-rank actions on compact homogeneous spaces obtained from simple indefinite orthogonal and unitary groups. In the first part of the paper, we show local differentiable rigidity for such…

We show local rigidity of hyperbolic triangle groups generated by reflections in pairs of $n$-dimensional subspaces of $R^{2n}$ obtained by composition of the geometric representation in $PGL(2, R)$ with the diagonal embeddings into…

Let G = SU(n,1), n >1 be the orientation-preserving isometry group of the complex hyperbolic space with an Iwasawa decomposition G = KAN. We prove local rigidity of a family of certain actions of a subgroup of AN on the imaginary boundary…

We show that a surface group of high genus contained in a classical simple Lie group can be deformed to become Zariski dense, unless the Lie group is $SU(p,q)$ (resp. $SO^* (2n)$, $n$ odd) and the surface group is maximal in some…

We establish topological local rigidity for uniform lattices in compactly generated groups, extending the result of Weil from the realm of Lie groups. We generalize the classical local rigidity theorem of Selberg, Calabi and Weil to…

We study rigidity properties of lattices in hyperbolic n-space with n>2 and of surface groups in the context of (integrable) measure equivalence. The results for lattices in hyperbolic n-space with n>2 are generalizations of Mostow…

We prove that in a cocompact complex hyperbolic arithmetic lattice $\Gamma < {\rm PU}(m,1)$ of the simplest type, deep enough finite index subgroups admit plenty of homomorphisms to $\mathbb{Z}$ with kernel of type $\mathscr{F}_{m-1}$ but…

For n>3 we study spaces obtained from finite volume complete real hyperbolic n-manifolds by removing a compact totally geodesic submanifold of codimension two. We prove that their fundamental groups are relative hyperbolic, co-Hopf,…

For any n>1 we determine the uniform and nonuniform lattices of the smallest covolume in the Lie group Sp(n,1). We explicitly describe them in terms of the ring of Hurwitz integers in the nonuniform case with n even, respectively, of the…

We develop further basic tools in the theory of continuous bounded cohomology of locally compact groups. We apply this tools to establish a Milnor-Wood type inequality in a very general context and to prove a global rigidity result which…
