Study on totally symmetric sets with group applications.

Paper classifies totally symmetric sets in groups and bounds their sizes.

Proves a minimal generating set for a specific group of mapping classes.

Characterizes groups with specific boundary properties.

We present two sets of theoretical results on the grouped lasso with overlap of Jacob, Obozinski and Vert (2009) in the linear regression setting. This method allows for joint selection of predictors in sparse regression, allowing for complex structured sparsity over the predictors encoded as a set of groups. This flex…

New algorithm balances exploration cost between groups in multi-armed bandits.

Minimal generating sets found for Kim-Manturov groups.

The study classifies and characterizes totally symmetric sets in the general linear group.

For every finitely generated abelian group G, we construct an irreducible open 3-manifold $M_{G}$ whose end set is homeomorphic to a Cantor set and with end homogeneity group of $M_{G}$ isomorphic to G. The end homogeneity group is the group of self-homeomorphisms of the end set that extend to homeomorphisms of the 3-m…

Free groups can be end homogeneity groups of 3-manifolds.

Find conditions for starshapedness of level sets in Heisenberg group.

The paper finds minimal generating sets and abelianizes the quasitoric braid group.

In this paper, we study CAT(0) groups and Coxeter groups whose boundaries are scrambled sets. Suppose that a group $G$ acts geometrically (i.e. properly and cocompactly by isometries) on a CAT(0) space $X$. (Such group $G$ is called a {\it CAT(0) group}.) Then the group $G$ acts by homeomorphisms on the boundary $\part…

The study embeds infinite-dimensional geometric structures in Cayley graphs.

Study on non-classical generating sets in Fuchsian Schottky groups.

In this paper, we prove a limit set intersection theorem in relatively hyperbolic groups. Our approach is based on a study of dynamical quasiconvexity of relatively quasiconvex subgroups. Using dynamical quasiconvexity, many well-known results on limit sets of geometrically finite Kleinian groups are derived in general…

Study on mapping class groups of non-orientable surfaces, proving some conjectures and refuting others.

The paper proves group actions on spheres with odd fixed points.

We prove that Kleinian groups whose limit sets are Cantor sets of Hausdorff dimension $<1$ are free. On the other hand we construct for any $ε>0$ examples of non-free purely hyperbolic Kleinian groups whose limit set is a Cantor set of Hausdorff dimension $<1+ε$.

Constructs Kleinian groups from free groups via hyperbolization.

In this paper, we establish that, for statistically convex-cocompact actions, contracting elements are exponentially generic in counting measure. Among others, the following exponential genericity results are obtained as corollaries for the set of hyperbolic elements in relatively hyperbolic groups, the set of rank-1 e…

We extend the proof of automatic continuity for homeomorphism groups of manifolds to non-compact manifolds and manifolds with marked points and their mapping class groups. Specifically, we show that, for any manifold $M$ homeomorphic to the interior of a compact manifold, and a set $X \subset M$ homeomorphic to the uni…

A palindrome in a free group F_n is a word on some fixed free basis of F_n that reads the same backwards as forwards. The palindromic automorphism group ΠA_n of the free group F_n consists of automorphisms that take each member of some fixed free basis of F_n to a palindrome; the group ΠA_n has close connections with h…

New algorithms achieve small prediction regret for learning from overlapping groups.

We show that the modular group has an infinite family of finite index subgroups, each of which has the same trace set as the modular group itself. Various congruence subgroups of the modular group, and the Bianchi groups, are also shown to have this property. In the case of the modular group, we construct examples of s…

We give a method of constructing maps between tubular groups inductively according to a set of strategies. This map will be a quasi-isometry exactly when the set of strategies is consistent. Conversely, if there exists a quasi-isometry between tubular groups, then there is a consistent set of strategies for them. There…

We give a complete characterization of countable primitive groups in several settings including linear groups, subgroups of mapping class groups, groups acting minimally on trees and convergence groups. The latter category includes as a special case Kleinian groups as well as subgroups of word hyperbolic groups. As an …

The trace set of a Fuchsian group $Γ$ ist the set of length of closed geodesics in the surface $Γ\backslash \mathbb{H}$. Luo and Sarnak showed that the trace set of a cofinite arithmetic Fuchsian group satisfies the bounded clustering property. Sarnak then conjectured that the B-C property actually characterizes arithm…

We study the limit set of discrete subgroups arising from Anosov representations. Specially we study the limit set of discrete groups arising from strictly convex real projective structures and Anosov representations from a finitely generated word hyperbolic group into a semisimple Lie group.

A group, defined as set with associative multiplication and inverse, is a natural structure describing the symmetry of a space. The concept of group generalizes to group objects internal to other categories than sets. But there are yet more general objects that can still be thought of as groups in many ways, such as qu…

Geometrically infinite Kleinain groups have nonconical limit sets with the cardinality of the continuum. In this paper, we construct a geometrically infinite Fuchsian group such that the Hausdorff dimension of the nonconical limit set equals zero. For finitely generated, geometrically infinite Kleinian groups, we prove…

In this paper, we construct an infinite presentation of the Torelli subgroup of the mapping class group of a surface whose generators consist of the set of all "separating twists", all "bounding pair maps", and all "commutators of simply intersecting pairs" and whose relations all come from a short list of topological …

New groups defined from knot diagrams, invariant under Reidemeister moves.

This paper is devoted to the development and applications of some (new) basic concepts in Lie theory, both from `computational" and "observability" viewpoint. We specify set of all "G-equivariant" maps from a given Lie group G to the underlying manifold M, namely $G$-set, and also we introduce "conjugacy" in Lie group …

Abstract: Proves relative versions of group splitting results.

Researchers classify lattices in a specific four-dimensional group.

In this article, we study the smooth mapping class group of a surface S relative to a given Cantor set, that is the group of isotopy classes of orientation-preserving smooth diffeomorphisms of S which preserve this Cantor set. When the Cantor set is the standard ternary Cantor set, we prove that the subgroup consisting…
