Complex hyperbolic surfaces whose closed geodesics are all simple

Sami Douba, D. B. McReynolds, Julien Paupert +1

We show that all closed geodesics in any arithmetic complex hyperbolic surface of second type are simple. These include the fake projective planes studied by Mumford, Klingler, Pra…

Parabolic-preserving deformations of cusped hyperbolic lattices

Samuel A. Ballas, Julien Paupert, Pierre Will

We study deformations of non-cocompact lattices of into and . A necessary condition for these deformations to remain discrete and f…

Nil 3-manifolds and cusps of complex hyperbolic surfaces

Julien Paupert, Connor Sell

McReynolds showed that every compact Nil 3-manifold occurs as the cusp cross-section of some arithmetic complex hyperbolic 2-manifold. We classify which commensurability classes of…

Complex hyperbolic and projective deformations of small Bianchi groups

Julien Paupert, Morwen Thistlethwaite

The Bianchi groups ${\rm Bi}(d)={\rm PSL}(2,\mathcal{O}_d) < {\rm PSL}(2,\C)$ (where denotes the ring of integers of $\Q (i\sqrt{d})$, with squarefr…

Picard modular groups generated by complex reflections

Alice Mark, Julien Paupert, David Polletta

In this short note we use the presentations found in \cite{MP} and \cite{Po} to show that the Picard modular groups with (respectively the q…

Hybrid lattices and thin subgroups of Picard modular groups

Julien Paupert, Joseph Wells

We consider a certain hybridization construction which produces a subgroup of from a pair of lattices in . Among the Picard modular groups ${\rm PU…

Presentations for cusped arithmetic hyperbolic lattices

Alice Mark, Julien Paupert

We present a general method to compute a presentation for any cusped arithmetic hyperbolic lattice , applying a classical result of Macbeath to a suitable -invariant horoball…

Rank 1 deformations of non-cocompact hyperbolic lattices

Samuel A. Ballas, Julien Paupert, Pierre Will

Let be a negatively curved symmetric space and a non-cocompact lattice in . We show that small, parabolic-preserving deformations of into the isometry gro…

New non-arithmetic complex hyperbolic lattices II

Martin Deraux, John R. Parker, Julien Paupert

We describe a general procedure to produce fundamental domains for complex hyperbolic triangle groups, a class of groups that contains a representative of the commensurability clas…

Involution and commutator length for complex hyperbolic isometries

Julien Paupert, Pierre Will

We study decompositions of complex hyperbolic isometries as products of involutions. We show that PU(2,1) has involution length 4 and commutator length 1, and that for all $n \geqs…

New non-arithmetic complex hyperbolic lattices

Martin Deraux, John R. Parker, Julien Paupert

We produce a family of new, non arithmetic lattices in PU(2,1). All previously known examples were commensurable with lattices constructed by Picard, Mostow and Deligne-Mostow, and…

Real reflections, commutators and cross-ratios in complex hyperbolic space

Julien Paupert, Pierre Will

We provide a concrete criterion to determine whether or not two given elements of PU(2,1) can be written as products of real reflections, with one reflection in common. As an appli…

Census of the complex hyperbolic sporadic triangle groups

Martin Deraux, John R. Parker, Julien Paupert

The goal of this paper is to give a conjectural census of complex hyperbolic sporadic groups. We prove that only finitely many of these sporadic groups are lattices. We also give a…
