We introduce a coarse analog of the classical Lusternik-Schnirelmann category which we denote by $\text{c-cat}$, defined for metric spaces in the coarse homotopy category. This provides a new tool for studying large-scale topological…

An analogue of Burnside's Lemma for 2-transitive groups is shown to hold for a class of topological groups. If the group is compact the representation is finite and splits into an irreducible and the constant functions. If both the group…

For a finitely generated discrete group $\Gamma$ acting properly on a spin manifold $M$, we formulate new topological obstructions to $\Gamma$-invariant metrics of positive scalar curvature on $M$ that take into account the cohomology of…

A discrete subgroup $\Gamma$ of a locally compact group $H$ is called a uniform lattice if the quotient $H/\Gamma$ is compact. Such an $H$ is called an envelope of $\Gamma$. In this paper we study the problem of classifying envelopes of…

Using computations in the bidual of $\mathbb{B}(L^2M)$ we develop a new technique at the von Neumann algebra level to upgrade relative proper proximality to full proper proximality. This is used to structurally classify subalgebras of…

We provide an upper bound on the topological complexity of twisted products. We use it to give an estimate $$TC(X)\le TC(\pi_1(X))+\dim X$$ of the topological complexity of a space in terms of its dimension and the complexity of its…

We establish a large class of homotopy coherent Morita-equivalences of Dold-Kan type relating diagrams with values in any weakly idempotent complete additive $\infty$-category; the guiding example is an $\infty$-categorical Dold-Kan…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated group acting properly discontinuously by isometries on a visibility CAT(0) space $X$ that satisfies the bounded packing property. We prove that $\Gamma$ satisfies the Tits alternative: it is either…

A residually nilpotent group is \emph{$k$-parafree} if all of its lower central series quotients match those of a free group of rank $k$. Magnus proved that $k$-parafree groups of rank $k$ are themselves free. In this note we mimic this…

We establish combinatorial characterizations of virtually torsion-free and virtually free groups using the canonical graph decomposition theory in \cite{DJKK22}. Our main results show that a finitely presented, residually finite group…

In this thesis we study the relation between scattering diagrams and deformations of holomorphic pairs, building on a recent work of Chan--Conan Leung--Ma. The new feature is the extended tropical vertex group where the scattering diagrams…

An universal invariant for site and bond percolation thresholds (p_{cs} and p_{cb} respectively) is proposed. The invariant writes {p_{cs}}^{1/a_s}{p_{cb}}^{-1/a_b}=\delta/d where a_s, a_b and \delta are positive constants,and d the space…

We give sharp bounds in Breuillard, Green and Tao's finitary version of Gromov's theorem on groups with polynomial growth. Precisely, we show that for every non-negative integer d there exists $c=c(d)>0$ such that if $G$ is a group with…

We prove wall-crossing formula for categorical Donaldson-Thomas invariants on the resolved conifold, which categorifies Nagao-Nakajima wall-crossing formula for numerical DT invariants on it. The categorified Hall products are used to…

Let $\Gamma$ be the fundamental group of a finite connected graph $\mathcal G$. Let $\mathfrak M$ be an abelian group. A {\it distribution} on the boundary $\partial\Delta$ of the universal covering tree $\Delta$ is an $\mathfrak M$-valued…

In this paper we derive an explicit formula for the Hirzebruch-Mumford volume of an indefinite lattice L of rank at least 3. If \Gamma is an arithmetic subgroup of the group O(L) of isometries of L and L has signature (2,n), then an…

We show that, given a finitely generated group $G$ as the coordinate group of a finite system of equations over a torsion-free hyperbolic group $\Gamma$, there is an algorithm which constructs a cover of a canonical solution diagram. The…

For a torsion free Kleinian group $\Gamma$ without parabolics, we consider the decomposition of the limit set $L(\Gamma)$ into conical and ending limit sets and compare the Patterson-Sullivan measure with the harmonic measure on $L(\Gamma)$…

We give a new proof of the recent K\"unneth theorem for periodic topological cyclic homology (TP) of smooth and proper dg categories over perfect fields of characteristic p>0 due to Blumberg and Mandell. Our result is slightly stronger and…

In this paper we introduce a new family of icc groups $\Gamma$ which satisfy the following product rigidity phenomenon, discovered in [DHI16] (see also [dSP17]): all tensor product decompositions of the II$_1$ factor $L(\Gamma)$ arise only…
