Presentation and uniqueness of Kac-Moody groups over local rings
Timothée Marquis, Bernhard Mühlherr
To any generalised Cartan matrix (GCM) and any ring , Tits associated a Kac-Moody group defined by a presentation à la Steinberg. For a domain with f…
Describing the nub in maximal Kac-Moody groups
Sebastian Bischof, Timothée Marquis
Let be a totally disconnected locally compact (tdlc) group. The contraction group of an element is the set of all such that $g^n h g^{-n} \t…
Stable reflection length in Coxeter groups
Francesco Fournier-Facio, Marco Lotz, Timothée Marquis
We introduce stable reflection length in Coxeter groups, as a way to study the asymptotic behaviour of reflection length. This creates connections to other well-studied stable leng…
Amalgams of rational unipotent groups and residual nilpotence
Pierre-Emmanuel Caprace, Timothée Marquis
We provide sufficient conditions for a free amalgamated product of torsionfree nilpotent groups to be residually nilpotent. We also characterise the residual nilpotence of certain…
Minicourse on Kac-Moody groups
Timothée Marquis
These are informal lecture notes for a three-hour minicourse on Kac-Moody groups, given at the workshop "Kac-Moody geometry" in July 2023 in Kiel. They provide a concise overview o…
Hyperfiniteness of boundary actions of hyperbolic groups
Timothée Marquis, Marcin Sabok
We prove that for every finitely generated hyperbolic group , the action of on its Gromov boundary induces a hyperfinite equivalence relation.
