[HTML][HTML] Second bounded cohomology of groups acting on 1-manifolds and applications to spectrum problems

F Fournier-Facio, Y Lodha - Advances in Mathematics, 2023 - Elsevier
We prove a general criterion for the vanishing of second bounded cohomology (with trivial
real coefficients) for groups that admit an action satisfying certain mild hypotheses. This …

Property (NL) for group actions on hyperbolic spaces

S Balasubramanya, F Fournier-Facio… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - ems.press
We introduce Property. NL/, which indicates that a group does not admit any (isometric)
action on a hyperbolic space with loxodromic elements. In other words, such a group G can …

Ulam stability of lamplighters and Thompson groups

F Fournier-Facio, B Rangarajan - Mathematische Annalen, 2024 - Springer
We show that a large family of groups is uniformly stable relative to unitary groups equipped
with submultiplicative norms, such as the operator, Frobenius, and Schatten p-norms. These …

Bounded cohomology of groups acting on Cantor sets

K Andritsch - arXiv preprint arXiv:2210.00459, 2022 - arxiv.org
We study the bounded cohomology of certain groups acting on the Cantor set. More
specifically, we consider the full group of homeomorphisms of the Cantor set as well as …

Locally compact piecewise full groups of homeomorphisms

A Garrido, CD Reid - arXiv preprint arXiv:2501.00908, 2025 - arxiv.org
We study when a piecewise full group (aka topological full group) of homeomorphisms of the
Cantor space $ X $ can be given a non-discrete totally disconnected locally compact (tdlc) …

Cremona groups over finite fields, Neretin groups, and non-positively curved cube complexes

A Genevois, A Lonjou, C Urech - … Mathematics Research Notices, 2024 - academic.oup.com
We show that plane Cremona groups over finite fields embed as dense subgroups into
Neretin groups, that is, groups of almost automorphisms of rooted trees. We also show that if …

Embedding groups into boundedly acyclic groups

F Wu, X Wu, M Zhao, Z Zhou - arXiv preprint arXiv:2407.07703, 2024 - arxiv.org
We show that the labeled Thompson groups and the twisted Brin--Thompson groups are
boundedly acyclic. This allows us to prove several new embedding results for groups. First …

Hyperbolic and cubical rigidities of Thompson's group V

A Genevois - Journal of Group Theory, 2019 - degruyter.com
In this article, we state and prove a general criterion allowing us to show that some groups
are hyperbolically elementary, meaning that every isometric action of one of these groups on …

An Invitation to Coarse Groups

A Leitner, F Vigolo - arXiv preprint arXiv:2203.08591, 2022 - arxiv.org
In this monograph we lay the foundation for a theory of coarse groups and coarse actions.
Coarse groups are group objects in the category of coarse spaces, and can be thought of as …

Uniform simplicity for subgroups of piecewise continuous bijections of the unit interval

N Guelman, I Liousse - Bulletin of the London Mathematical …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract Let I= 0, 1) I=0,1) and PC (I) PC(I) (resp. PC+(I) PC^+(I)) be the quotient group of the
group of all piecewise continuous (resp. piecewise continuous and orientation preserving) …
