We show that the number of noncommensurable lattices, hence also that of maximal lattices in SO(1,n) is at least exponential. To do so we construct large families of noncommensurable hybrid hyperbolic (Gromov/Piatetski-Shapiro) manifolds.
Let $G$ be a locally convex Lie group and $\pi:G \to \mathrm{U}(\mathcal{H})$ be a continuous unitary representation. $\pi$ is called smooth if the space of $\pi$-smooth vectors $\mathcal{H}^\infty\subset \mathcal{H}$ is dense. In this…
This is an expository paper. It is not difficult to see that every group homomorphism from the additive group Z of integers to the additive group R of real numbers extends to a homomorphism from R to R. We discuss other examples of discrete…
Let $S \subset \P^n$ be a smooth quartic hypersurface defined over a number field $K$. If $n \ge 4$, then for some finite extension $K'$ of $K$ the set $S(K')$ of $K'$-rational points of $S$ is Zariski dense.
By considering appropriate finite covering spaces of closed non-orientable surfaces, we construct linear representations of their mapping class group which have finite index image in certain big arithmetic groups.
We classify globally irreducible representations of alternating groups and double covers of symmetric and alternating groups. In order to achieve this classification we also completely characterise irreducible representations of such groups…
We show that sublattice-polarized states (SLPSs) appear ubiquitously on the common lattices. We first establish the destructive-interference (DI) scenario for the SLPSs, which is systematized by a point-group-symmetry interpretation. The…
We construct generating pairs of simple Lie algebras in characteristic zero. We apply this construction to exhibit infinite series of 2-generator Zariski dense subgroups that are free of rank 2 of the simple algebraic groups SL(n, C), Sp(n,…
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…
We prove that any Borel Anosov representations of a surface group into $Sp(4,\mathbb{R})$ that has maximal Toledo invariant must be Hitchin. We also prove that a representation of a surface group into $Sp(2n,\mathbb{R})$ that is…
We show that for every nonelementary representation of a surface group into $SL(2,{\mathbb C})$ there is a Riemann surface structure such that the Higgs bundle associated to the representation lies outside the discriminant locus of the…
text of abstract (We present a utilitarian review of the family of matrix groups $Sp(2n,\Re)$, in a form suited to various applications both in optics and quantum mechanics. We contrast these groups and their geometry with the much more…
The lattice of intersections of reflecting hyperplanes of a complex reflection group W may be considered as the poset of 1-eigenspaces of the elements of W. In this paper we replace 1 with an arbitrary eigenvalue and study the topology and…
We study deformations of non-cocompact lattices of ${\rm SO}(n,1)$ into ${\rm SU}(n,1)$ and ${\rm SO}(n+1,1)$. A necessary condition for these deformations to remain discrete and faithful (when $n \geqslant 3$) is for the parabolic…
Let G be a subgroup of GL(V), where V is a finite dimensional vector space over a finite field of characteristic p >0. If det(g-1) = 0 for all g \in G then we call G a fixed-point subgroup of GL(V). Motivated in parallel by questions in…
For $S$ a closed surface of genus at least $2$, let $\mathrm{Hit}_3(S)$ be the Hitchin component of representations to $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R}),$ equipped with the Labourie-Loftin complex structure. We construct a mapping class group…
For all $d$ belonging to a density-$1/8$ subset of the natural numbers, we give an example of a square-tiled surface conjecturally realizing the group $\mathrm{SO}^*(2d)$ in its standard representation as the Zariski-closure of a factor of…
Using various tools from representation theory and group theory, but without using hard classification theorems such as the classification of finite simple groups, we show that the Jones representations of braid groups are dense in the…
This paper is concerned with discrete, uniform subgroups (lattices) of oscillator groups, which are certain semidirect products of the Heisenberg group and the additive group of real numbers. The present paper rectifies the uncertainties in…
The aim of this article is to prove Zariski density of crystalline representations in the rigid analytic space associated to the universal deformation ring of a d-dimensional mod p representation of Gal(\bar{K}/K) for any d and for any…
