Mapping class groups have a unique Polish group structure

Tyrone Ghaswala, Sumun Iyer, Robert Alonzo Lyman +1

We prove that mapping class groups of surfaces and of locally finite connected graphs support a unique Polish group structure.

Coarse geometry of homeomorphism groups: Classifying countable Stone spaces

George Domat, Hannah Hoganson, Robert Alonzo Lyman

Towards developing the tools of geometric group theory for non-locally compact topological groups, we give one of the first complete classifications of a family of such groups up t…

Geometries for Groups

Robert Alonzo Lyman

We prove a "continuous converse" to the Milnor-Schwarz lemma. Given any topological group and any left-invariant, large scale geodesic pseudometric giving an identity neigh…

Finiteness properties of stabilisers of oligomorphic actions

Francesco Fournier-Facio, Peter H. Kropholler, Robert Alonzo Lyman +1

An action of a group on a set is oligomorphic if it has finitely many orbits of -element subsets for all . We prove that for a large class of groups (including all groups of…

Conformal dimension bounds for certain Coxeter group Bowditch boundaries

Elizabeth Field, Radhika Gupta, Robert Alonzo Lyman +1

We give upper and lower bounds on the conformal dimension of the Bowditch boundary of a Coxeter group with defining graph a complete graph and edge labels at least three. The lower…

Graphical models for topological groups: A case study on countable Stone spaces

Beth Branman, George Domat, Hannah Hoganson +1

By analogy with the Cayley graph of a group with respect to a finite generating set or the Cayley--Abels graph of a totally disconnected, locally compact group, we detail countable…

A hyperbolic free-by-cyclic group determined by its finite quotients

Naomi Andrew, Paige Hillen, Robert Alonzo Lyman +1

We show that the group is profinitely rigid amongst free-by-cyclic groups, providing the first example of a hyperbolic free-by-c…
