New proof shows not all Salem numbers are growth rates of Coxeter groups.

New groups found in hyperbolic 4D and 5D space have minimal growth rate.

For right-angled Coxeter groups $W_Γ$, we obtain a condition on $Γ$ that is necessary and sufficient to ensure that $W_Γ$ is thick and thus not relatively hyperbolic. We show that Coxeter groups which are not thick all admit canonical minimal relatively hyperbolic structures; further, we show that in such a structure, …

Characterizes Coxeter groups with specific boundary shapes.

Threshold found for hyperbolicity in random Coxeter groups.

We study relatively hyperbolic Coxeter groups of type $HM$ with maximal Euclidean Coxeter subgroups of codimension 1. Our main result in this paper is that the dimension of these groups is bounded above.

Geometric constraints help classify hyperbolic polytopes.

Proves minimal growth rate for Coxeter groups in hyperbolic space.

We study homomorphisms from Kähler groups to Coxeter groups. As an application, we prove that a cocompact complex hyperbolic lattice (in complex dimension at least 2) does not embedd into a Coxeter group or a right-angled Artin group. This is in contrast with the case of real hyperbolic lattices.

Minimal covolume group found in hyperbolic 3-space.

Proves involutions on Right-angled Coxeter groups without fixed points.

Paper constructs hyperbolic Coxeter groups that virtually fiber over Z.

We study combinatorial modulus on boundaries of hyperbolic Coxeter groups. We give new examples of hyperbolic groups whose boundary satisfies a combinatorial version of the Loewner property, and prove Cannon's conjecture for Coxeter groups. We also establish some connections with l^p cohomology.

Characterizes Coxeter groups with convex cocompact representations in projective space.

New families of hyperbolic polyhedra yield infinitely many unique reflection groups.

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a hyperbolic Coxeter group with planar nerve to have Sierpiński curve as its Gromov boundary.

Much is known about random right-angled Coxeter groups (i.e., right-angled Coxeter groups whose defining graphs are random graphs under the Erdös-Rényi model). In this paper, we extend this model to study random general Coxeter groups and give some results about random Coxeter groups, including some information about t…

The boundary of certain hyperbolic groups is like a Menger curve.

Study character varieties of a Coxeter group in hyperbolic and Anti-de Sitter spaces.

In this paper we consider the growth rates of 3-dimensional hyperbolic Coxeter polyhedra some of its dihedral angles are $\fracπ{m}$ for $m\geq{7}$. By combining with the classical result by Parry \cite{Pa} and the main result of \cite{Y}, we prove that the growth rates of 3-dimensional hyperbolic Coxeter groups are Pe…

Cube complexes allow hyperbolic groups to have Anosov representations.

We study the set G of growth rates of of ideal Coxeter groups in hyperbolic 3-space which consists of real algebraic integers greater than 1. We show that (1) G is unbounded above while it has the minimum, (2) any element of G is a Perron number, and (3) growth rates of of ideal Coxeter groups with $n$ generators are l…

New groups algebraically fibre with high-dimensional hyperbolic groups.

In this paper, we compute the covolume of the group of units of the quadratic form f_d^n(x) = x_1^2 + x_2^2 + . . . + x_n^2 - d x_{n+1}^2 with d an odd, positive, square-free integer. Mcleod has determined the hyperbolic Coxeter fundamental domain of the reflection subgroup of the group of units of the quadratic form f…

The reflection length of an element of a Coxeter group is the minimal number of conjugates of the standard generators whose product is equal to that element. In this paper we prove the conjecture of McCammond and Petersen that reflection length is unbounded in any non-affine Coxeter group. Among the tools used, the con…

Abstract Coxeter groups have growth rates that are Perron numbers.

Small sets of systoles fill hyperbolic surfaces of large genus.

In [6], Kellerhals and Perren conjectured that the growth rates of the reflection groups given by hyperbolic Coxeter polyhedra are always Perron numbers. We prove that this conjecture is always true for the case of ideal Coxeter polyhedra in $\mathbb{H}^3$. We also find out the ideal Coxeter polyhedron in $\mathbb{H}^3…

The rich theory of Coxeter groups is used to provide an algebraic construction of finite volume hyperbolic n-manifolds. Combinatorial properties of finite images of these groups can be used to compute the volumes of the resulting manifolds. Three examples, in 4,5 and 6-dimensions, are given, each of very small volume, …

Bounds on conformal dimension for certain Coxeter group boundaries.

We study arithmetic properties of the growth rates of cofinite 3-dimensional hyperbolic Coxeter groups whose dihedral angles are of the form $\fracπ{m}$ for $m=2,3,4,5,6$ and show that the growth rates are always Perron numbers.

Bowditch's JSJ tree for splittings over 2-ended subgroups is a quasi-isometry invariant for 1-ended hyperbolic groups which are not cocompact Fuchsian. Our main result gives an explicit, computable "visual" construction of this tree for certain hyperbolic right-angled Coxeter groups. As an application of our constructi…

For a finite volume geodesic polyhedron P in hyperbolic 3-space, with the property that all interior angles between incident faces are integral submultiples of Pi, there is a naturally associated Coxeter group generated by reflections in the faces. Furthermore, this Coxeter group is a lattice inside the isometry group …

New method constructs non-quasiconvex subgroups in hyperbolic groups.

Study complex reflections in infinite Coxeter tetrahedron moduli space.

We prove the following: there are infinitely many finite-covolume (resp. cocompact) Coxeter groups acting on hyperbolic space H^n for every n < 20 (resp. n < 7). When n=7 or 8, they may be taken to be nonarithmetic. Furthermore, for 1 < n < 20, with the possible exceptions n=16 and 17, the number of essentially distinc…

New methods classify hyperbolic polytopes with up to 40 facets.

For $d=4, 5, 6, 7, 8$, we exhibit examples of $\mathrm{AdS}^{d,1}$ strictly GHC-regular groups which are not quasi-isometric to the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^d$, nor to any symmetric space. This provides a negative answer to Question 5.2 in [9A12] and disproves Conjecture 8.11 of Barbot-Mérigot [BM12]. We construct …

Let $Γ$ be a connected, triangle-free, planar graph with at least five vertices that has no separating vertices or edges. If the graph $Γ$ is $\mathcal{CFS}$, we prove that the right-angled Coxeter group $G_Γ$ is virtually a Seifert manifold group or virtually a graph manifold group and we give a complete quasi-isometr…

We determine the three hyperbolic 5-orbifolds of smallest volume among compact arithmetic orbifolds, and we identify their fundamental groups with hyperbolic Coxeter groups. This gives two different ways to compute the volume of these orbifolds.

The notion of limit roots of a Coxeter group W was recently introduced (see arXiv:1112.5415 and arXiv:1303.6710): they are the accumulation points of directions of roots of a root system for W. In the case where the root system lives in a Lorentzian space W admits a faithful representation as a discrete reflection grou…

Minimal non-arithmetic hyperbolic 3-orbifold found with least volume.

A generic finite presentation defines a word hyperbolic group whose boundary is homeomorphic to the Menger curve. In this article, we produce the first known examples of non-hyperbolic $CAT(0)$ groups whose visual boundary is homeomorphic to the Menger curve. The examples in question are the Coxeter groups whose nerve …

We give explicit necessary and sufficient conditions for the abstract commensurability of certain families of 1-ended, hyperbolic groups, namely right-angled Coxeter groups defined by generalized theta-graphs and cycles of generalized theta-graphs, and geometric amalgams of free groups whose JSJ graphs are trees of dia…

New classification of hyperbolic Coxeter prisms.

The paper improves Vinberg's algorithm for arithmetic hyperbolic lattices.

We construct finite volume hyperbolic manifolds with large symmetry groups. The construction makes use of the presentations of finite Coxeter groups provided by Barot and Marsh and involves mutations of quivers and diagrams defined in the theory of cluster algebras. We generalize our construction by assigning to every …

Let (W,S) be a finite rank Coxeter system with W infinite. We prove that the limit weak order on the blocks of infinite reduced words of W is encoded by the topology of the Tits boundary of the Davis complex X of W. We consider many special cases, including W word hyperbolic, and X with isolated flats. We establish tha…
