New group with non-loxodromic Morse element found.

Loxodromic elements are pseudo-Anosov on specific graphs.

New loxodromic elements found in infinite-type surfaces.

Artin-Tits groups act on a certain delta-hyperbolic complex, called the "additional length complex". For an element of the group, acting loxodromically on this complex is a property analogous to the property of being pseudo-Anosov for elements of mapping class groups. By analogy with a well-known conjecture about mappi…

Let ${\bf H}_{\mathbb C}^n$ be the $n$-dimensional complex hyperbolic space and ${\rm SU}(n,1)$ be the (holomorphic) isometry group. An element $g$ in ${\rm SU}(n,1)$ is called loxodromic or hyperbolic if it has exactly two fixed points on the boundary $\partial {\bf H}_{\mathbb C}^n$. We classify ${\rm SU}(n,1)$ conju…

The class of acylindrically hyperbolic groups, which are groups that admit a certain type of non-elementary action on a hyperbolic space, contains many interesting groups such as non-exceptional mapping class groups and $\operatorname{Out}(\mathbb F_n)$ for $n\geq 2$. In such a group, a generalized loxodromic element i…

In Garside groups, axes of Morse elements are strongly contracting.

In this paper we prove that a fully irreducible outer automorphism relative to a non-exceptional free factor system acts loxodromically on the relative free factor complex as defined by Handel and Mosher. We also prove a north-south dynamic result for the action of such outer automorphisms on the closure of relative ou…

We construct an example of an isometric action of $F(a,b)$ on a $δ$-hyperbolic graph $Y$, such that this action is acylindrical, purely loxodromic, has asymptotic translation lengths of nontrivial elements of $F(a,b)$ separated away from $0$, has quasiconvex orbits in $Y$, but such that the orbit map $F(a,b)\to Y$ is n…

The study examines groups acting loxodromically on hyperbolic graph products.

Local coordinates for non-singular pairs in complex and quaternionic hyperbolic groups.

Let $G \curvearrowright X$ be a nonelementary action by isometries of a hyperbolic group $G$ on a hyperbolic metric space $X$. We show that the set of elements of $G$ which act as loxodromic isometries of $X$ is generic. That is, for any finite generating set of $G$, the proportion of $X$--loxodromics in the ball of ra…

We study properties of generic elements of groups of isometries of hyperbolic spaces. Under general combinatorial conditions, we prove that loxodromic elements are generic (i.e. they have full density with respect to counting in balls for the word metric) and translation length grows linearly. We provide applications t…

Let $Sp(2,1)$ be the isometry group of the quaternionic hyperbolic plane ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^2$. An element $g$ in $Sp(2,1)$ is `hyperbolic' if it fixes exactly two points on the boundary of ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^2$. We classify pairs of hyperbolic elements in $Sp(2,1)$ up to conjugation. A hyperbolic element of $S…

The study shows that certain spacetimes are isospectrally rigid.

We define the injectivity radius of a Coxeter polyhedron in H^3 to be half the shortest translation length among hyperbolic/loxodromic elements in the orientation-preserving reflection group. We show that, for finite-volume polyhedra, this number is always less than 2.6339..., and for compact polyhedra it is always les…

The study characterizes loxodromes on specific rotational surfaces in 3D space.

In this paper, we prove important results concerning the loxodromes on an invariant surface in a three-dimensional Riemannian manifold, some of which generalize classical results about loxodromes on rotational surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. In particular, we show how to parametrize a loxodrome on an invariant surface of $…

Characterizes loxodromic unit vector fields on punctured spheres.

Automorphic forms on a bounded symmetric domain D=G/K can be viewed as holomorphic sections of $L^{\otimes k}$, where L is a quantizing line bundle on a compact quotient of D and k is a positive integer. Let $Γ$ be a cocompact discrete subgroup of SU(n,1) which acts freely on SU(n,1)/U(n). We suggest a construction of …

Curved loxodromes on spheres are explained and their ODE derived.

We prove that the group STame($k^3$) of special tame automorphisms of the affine 3-space is not simple, over any base field of characteristic zero. Our proof is based on the study of the geometry of a 2-dimensional simply-connected simplicial complex C on which the tame automorphism group acts naturally. We prove that …

Let ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^n$ denote the $n$-dimensional quaternionic hyperbolic space. The linear group ${\rm{Sp}}(n,1)$ acts by the isometries of ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^n$. A subgroup $G$ of ${\rm {Sp}}(n,1)$ is called \emph{Zariski dense} if it does not fix a point on ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^n \cup \partial {{\bf H}_…

Study random walks on CAT(0) spaces with contracting elements, proving limit laws.

We show that if a f.g. group $G$ has a non-elementary WPD action on a hyperbolic metric space $X$, then the number of $G$-conjugacy classes of $X$-loxodromic elements of $G$ coming from a ball of radius $R$ in the Cayley graph of $G$ grows exponentially in $R$. As an application we prove that for $N\ge 3$ the number of…

In this paper, we obtain the differential equations of the space-like loxodromes on the non-degenerate canal surfaces depending on the causal characters of these canal surfaces and their meridians in Minkowski 3-space. Also we give an example by using Mathematica computer programme.

Given a countable group $G$ splitting as a free product $G=G_1\ast\dots\ast G_k\ast F_N$, we establish classification results for subgroups of the group $Out(G,\mathcal{F})$ of all outer automorphisms of $G$ that preserve the conjugacy classes of each $G_i$. We show that every finitely generated subgroup $H\subseteq Ou…

New lattice extensions of Schottky groups in hyperbolic space.

In this paper, we obtain analogues of Jorgensen's inequality for non-elementary groups of isometries of quaternionic hyperbolic $n$-space generated by two elements, one of which is loxodromic. Our result gives some improvement over earlier results of Kim [10] and Markham [15]}. These results also apply to complex hyper…

The paper proves inequalities for isometries in loxodromic Kleinian groups.

Let $\mathbb F=\mathbb R$, $\mathbb C$ or $\mathbb H$. Let ${\bf H}_{\mathbb F}^n$ denote the $n$-dimensional $\mathbb F$-hyperbolic space. Let ${\rm U}(n,1; \mathbb F)$ be the linear group that acts by the isometries. A subgroup $G$ of ${\rm U}(n,1; \mathbb F)$ is called \emph{Zariski dense} if it does not fix a point…

Study on complex hyperbolic bidisk isometries and their Dirichlet domains.

Let $ξ$ and $η$ be two non--commuting isometries of the hyperbolic $3$--space $\mathbb{H}^3$ so that $Γ=\langleξ,η\rangle$ is a purely loxodromic free Kleinian group. For $γ\inΓ$ and $z\in\mathbb{H}^3$, let $d_γz$ denote the distance between $z$ and $γ\cdot z$. Let $z_1$ and $z_2$ be the mid-points of the shortest geod…

Extends Newton's minimal resistance problem to Riemannian surfaces.

We prove that finitely generated purely loxodromic subgroups of a right-angled Artin group $A(Γ)$ fulfill equivalent conditions that parallel characterizations of convex cocompactness in mapping class groups $\text{Mod}(S)$. In particular, such subgroups are quasiconvex in $A(Γ)$. In addition, we identify a milder cond…
