This article deals with dihedral group actions on compact Riemann surfaces and the interplay between different geometric data associated to them. First, a bijective correspondence between geometric signatures and analytic representations is…

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 initiate the study of characters of surface groups and their corresponding tracial representations. We show that any tracial representation can be approximated arbitrarily well in the Wasserstein topology by factorial tracial…

We consider the action of a real reductive group G on a Kaehler manifold Z which is the restriction of a holomorphic action of the complexified group G^C. We assume that the induced action of a compatible maximal compact subgroup U of G^C…

The lightlike geometry of codimension two spacelike submanifolds in Lorentz-Minkowski space has been developed in [Izumiya, S. and Romero Fuster, M. C. Selecta Mathematica (NS), 13 23--55 (2007)] which is a natural Lorentzian analogue of…

This is a survey of Magnus representations with particular emphasis on their applications to mapping class groups and monoids (groups) of homology cobordisms of surfaces. In the first half, we begin by recalling the basics of the Fox…

A Kleinian group $\Gamma < \mathrm{Isom}(\mathbb H^3)$ is called convex cocompact if any orbit of $\Gamma$ in $\mathbb H^3$ is quasiconvex or, equivalently, $\Gamma$ acts cocompactly on the convex hull of its limit set in $\partial \mathbb…

We compute the invariant subspace of the rational group ring of a surface, truncated by powers of the augmentation ideal, under the action of the mapping class group. The surface is compact, oriented with one boundary component. This…

In math.SG/0303255, we discussed the connected components of the space of surface group representations for any compact connected semisimple Lie group and any closed compact (orientable or nonorientable) surface. In this sequel, we…

In a previous paper, we constructed an explicit dynamical correspondence between certain Kleinian reflection groups and certain anti-holomorphic rational maps on the Riemann sphere. In this paper, we show that their deformation spaces share…

Reid asked whether all convex-cocompact subgroups of mapping class groups are separable. Using a construction of Manning-Mj-Sageev, we give examples of separable convex-cocompact subgroups that are free of arbitrary finite rank, while prior…

This paper is a survey of the relationship between labelled configuration spaces, mapping class groups with marked points and function spaces. In particular, we collect calculations of the cohomology groups for the mapping class groups of…

We study relations of some classes of $k$-convex, $k$-visible bodies in Euclidean spaces. We introduce and study \textrm{circular projections} in normed linear spaces and classes of bodies related with families of such maps, in particular,…

We consider conformal actions of simple Lie groups on compact Lorentzian manifolds. Mainly motivated by the Lorentzian version of a conjecture of Lichnerowicz, we establish the alternative: Either the group acts isometrically for some…

Sharp Fourier type and cotype of Lebesgue spaces and Schatten classes with respect to an arbitrary compact semisimple Lie group are investigated. In the process, a local variant of the Hausdorff-Young inequality on such groups is given.

We study the reflectional symmetry of a surface in the Euclidean 3-dimensional space with a cross-cap singularity with respect to planes. This symmetry is picked up by the singularities of folding maps on the cross-cap. We give a list of…

The paper investigates invariants of compactified Picard modular surfaces by principal congruence subgroups of Picard modular groups. The applications to the surface classification and modular forms are discussed.

In this paper, we are interested in study subgroups of topologized fundamental groups and their influences on generalized covering maps. More precisely, we find some relationships between generalized covering subgroups and the other famous…

For the result on 1-quasiconformal maps, see the paper by Cowling and Ottazzi. The result on quasiconformal maps on Carnot groups with reducible first layer will appear in a forthcoming paper by Enrico Le Donne and Xiangdong Xie.

We develop a theory of convex cocompact subgroups of the mapping class group MCG of a closed, oriented surface S of genus at least 2, in terms of the action on Teichmuller space. Given a subgroup G of MCG defining an extension L_G: 1-->…
