Let $Y=\Gamma\backslash H^n$ be a quotient of the hyperbolic space by the action of a discrete convex-cocompact group of isometries. We describe certain spaces of $\Gamma$-invariant currents on the sphere at infinity of $H^n$ with support…

Let $\Gamma$ be a smooth, closed, oriented, $(n-1)$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. We show that there exist arbitrarily small perturbations $\Gamma'$ of $\Gamma$ with the property that minimizing integral $n$-currents with…

A well known question of Gromov asks whether every one-ended hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ has a surface subgroup. We give a positive answer when $\Gamma$ is the fundamental group of a graph of free groups with cyclic edge groups. As a result,…

We make a few observations on the absence of geometric and topological rigidity for acylindrically hyperbolic and relatively hyperbolic groups. In particular, we demonstrate the lack of a well-defined limit set for acylindrical actions on…

Let $n > m \geq 1$ be integers such that $n+ m \geq 4$ is even. We prove the existence, in the volume aspect, of exceptional Maass forms on compact quotients of the hyperbolic Grassmannian of signature $(n,m)$. The method builds upon the…

Let $\Gamma$ be a countable discrete group. We say that $\Gamma$ has $C^*$-invariant subalgebra rigidity (ISR) property if every $\Gamma$-invariant $C^*$-subalgebra $\mathcal{A}\le C_r^*(\Gamma)$ is of the form $C_r^*(N)$ for some normal…

We show that the relative cohomological dimension $\cd(G,H)$ of a relatively hyperbolic pair $(G,H)$ is always finite when $G$ is torsion-free. We also show that this dimension is preserved under quasi-isometries, provided that $G$ is…

The hyperbolic space $ \H^d$ can be defined as a pseudo-sphere in the $(d+1)$ Minkowski space-time. In this paper, a Fuchsian group $\Gamma$ is a group of linear isometries of the Minkowski space such that $\H^d/\Gamma$ is a compact…

The asymptotic group of symmetries at null infinity of flat spacetimes in three and four dimensions is the infinite dimensional Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) group. This has recently been shown to be isomorphic to non-relativistic conformal…

We prove several cases of Zimmer's conjecture for actions of higher-rank cocompact lattices on low dimensional manifolds. For example, if $\Gamma$ is a cocompact lattice in $\mathrm{Sl}(n, \mathbb R)$, $M$ is a compact manifold, and…

Suppose n>2, let M,M' be n-dimensional connected complete finite-volume hyperbolic manifolds with non-empty geodesic boundary, and suppose that the fundamental group of M is quasi-isometric to the fundamental group of M' (with respect to…

A geodesic bicombing on a metric space selects for every pair of points a geodesic connecting them. We prove existence and uniqueness results for geodesic bicombings satisfying different convexity conditions. In combination with recent work…

We provide sufficient conditions for two subgroups of a hierarchically hyperbolic group to generate an amalgamated free product over their intersection. The result applies in particular to certain geometric subgroups of mapping class groups…

Carlson and Toledo conjectured that any infinite fundamental group $\Gamma$ of a compact K\"ahler manifold satisfies $H^2(\Gamma,\R)\not =0$. We assume that $\Gamma$ admits an unbounded reductive rigid linear representation. This…

For $\Gamma$ a cofinite Fuchsian group, and $l$ a fixed closed geodesic, we study the asymptotics of the number of those images of $l$ that have a prescribed orientation and distance from $l$ less than or equal to $X$. Using a new relative…

Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion free lattice in $G = \PGL(n+1,\FF)$, where $n\ge 1$ and $\FF$ is a non-archimedean local field. Then $\Gamma$ acts on the Furstenberg boundary $G/P$, where $P$ is a minimal parabolic subgroup of $G$. The identity…

We use the fixed point method and toroidal compactifications to establish general lower bounds for the essential dimension of congruence covers $\Gamma' \backslash \mathcal{X}^0 \rightarrow \Gamma \backslash \mathcal{X}^0$ of mixed Shimura…

Roughly speaking, let us say that a map between metric spaces is large scale conformal if it maps packings by large balls to large quasi-balls with limited overlaps. This quasi-isometry invariant notion makes sense for finitely generated…

We investigate the tracial and ideal structures of $C^*$-algebras of quasi-regular representations of stabilizers of boundary actions. Our main tool is the notion of boundary maps, namely $\Gamma$-equivariant unital completely positive maps…

We prove the first robust dimension free isoperimetric result for the standard Gaussian measure $\gamma_n$ and the corresponding boundary measure $\gamma_n^+$ in $\mathbb {R}^n$. The main result in the theory of Gaussian isoperimetry…
