Uniform independence in linear groups
E. Breuillard, T. Gelander
We show that for any finitely generated group of matrices that is not virtually solvable, there is an integer m such that, given an arbitrary finite generating set for the group, o…
On deformations of free groups in compact Lie groups
T. Gelander
We study some properties of the varieties of deformations of free groups in compact Lie groups. In particular we prove a conjecture of Margulis and Soifer about the density of non-…
Superrigidity, generalized harmonic maps and uniformly convex spaces
T. Gelander, A. Karlsson, G. A. Margulis
We prove several superrigidity results for isometric actions on metric spaces satisfying some convexity properties. First, we extend some recent theorems of N. Monod on uniform and…
Dense embeddings of surface groups
Emmanuel Breuillard, Tsachik Gelander, Juan Souto +1
We discuss dense embeddings of surface groups and fully residually free groups in topological groups. We show that a compact topological group contains a nonabelian dense free grou…
