This is the first of two papers on the global topology of the space $\textrm{Sub}(G)$ of all closed subgroups of $G=\textrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$, equipped with the Chabauty topology. In this paper, we study the spaces of lattices and…

Suppose $\Gamma$ is a discrete group, and $\alpha\in Z^3(B\Gamma;A)$, with $A$ an abelian group. Given a representation $\rho:\pi_1(M)\to\Gamma$, with $M$ a closed 3-manifold, put $F(M,\rho)=\langle(B\rho)^\ast[\alpha],[M]\rangle$, where…

In this article we exhibit certain projective degenerations of smooth $K3$ surfaces of degree $2g-2$ in $\Bbb P^g$ (whose Picard group is generated by the hyperplane class), to a union of two rational normal scrolls, and also to a union of…

For $q = p^n$ with $p$ an odd prime, the projective linear group $PGL(2,q)$ can be seen as the stabilizer of a conic $O$ in a projective plane $\pi = PG(2,q)$. In that setting, involutions of $PGL(2,q)$ correspond bijectively to points of…

We recently established a Toponogov type triangle comparison theorem for a certain class of Finsler manifolds whose radial flag curvatures are bounded below by that of a von Mangoldt surface of revolution (arXiv:1205.3913). In this article,…

Given a non-compact semisimple real Lie group $G$ and an Anosov subgroup $\Gamma$, we utilize the correspondence between $\mathbb R$-valued additive characters on Levi subgroups $L$ of $G$ and $\mathbb R$-affine homogeneous line bundles…

Much inspired by J. A. Wi\'sniewski's nef-value function method, we prove that in a smooth projective family over the unit disk, if the adjoint bundle of the canonical line bundle with a relatively semiample line bundle is nef on one fiber,…

Swarm and constellation reconfiguration can be viewed as motion of an unordered point configuration in an ambient space. Here, we provide persistence-stable, symmetry-invariant geometric representations for comparing and monitoring…

We prove two results about the natural representation of a group G of automorphisms of a normal projective threefold X on its second cohomology. We show that if X is minimal then G, modulo a normal subgroup of null entropy, is embedded as a…

In this article we provide simple and provable bounds on the size and shape of the locus of discrete subgroups of $\mathsf{PSL}(2,\mathbb{C})\cong \operatorname{Isom}^+(\mathbb{H}^3)$ which split as a free product of cyclic groups…

We carry out a detailed study of the structure of domains of discontinuity $\Omega_\rho$ in $\mathbb{RP}^3$ of $\text{PSL}_4(\mathbb{R})$-Hitchin representations $\rho$. We then prove the foliated component $\Omega_\rho^1$ of $\Omega_\rho$…

We show that a quantum field theory A living on the line and having a group G of inner symmetries gives rise to a category GLoc A of twisted representations. This category is a braided crossed G-category in the sense of Turaev. Its degree…

We give the complete classification of regular projectively Anosov flows on closed three-dimensional manifolds. More precisely, we show that such a flow must be either an Anosov flow or decomposed into a finite union of $T^2 \times…

Let Gamma_k be the lower central series of a surface group Gamma of a compact surface S with one boundary component. A simple question to ponder is whether a mapping class of S can be determined to be pseudo-Anosov given only the data of…

Let $\Sigma_{g,n}$ be an orientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures. We study actions of the mapping class group of $\Sigma_{g,n}$ via Hodge-theoretic and arithmetic techniques. We show that if $$\rho: \pi_1(\Sigma_{g,n})\to…

This paper investigates certain foliations of three-manifolds that are hybrids of fibrations over the circle with foliated circle bundles over surfaces: a 3-manifold slithers around the circle when its universal cover fibers over the circle…

This thesis provides a classification of generalized pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms up to topological conjugacy using an algorithmic approach. A Markov partition of a generalized pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism is a decomposition of the surface…

In this paper we define, for each aspherical orientable 3-manifold $M$ endowed with a \emph{torus splitting} $\c{T}$, a 2-dimensional fundamental $l_1$-class $[M]^{\c{T}}$ whose $l_1$-norm has similar properties as the Gromov simplicial…

In this paper we develop a theory for Patterson--Sullivan measures for non-Borel Anosov groups on the Furstenberg boundary. Previously, such a theory has been successfully developed for measures supported on the partial flag manifold…

We introduce a new technique, based on Gaussian maps, to study the possibility, for a given surface, to lie on a threefold as a very ample divisor with given normal bundle. We give several applications, among which one to surfaces of…
