Abstract

We study the distribution of roots of rank 2 in nonpositively curved 2-complexes with Moebius--Kantor links. For every face in such a complex, the parity of the number of roots of rank 2 in a neighbourhood of the face is a well-defined geometric invariant determined by the root distribution. We study the relation between the root distribution and the parity distribution. We prove that there exist parity distributions in flats which are disallowed in Moebius--Kantor complexes. This contrasts with the fact that every root distribution can be realized. We classify the root distributions associated with an even parity distribution (i.e., such that every face is even) on a flat plane. We prove that there exists up to isomorphism a unique even simply connected Moebius--Kantor complex -- namely, the Pauli complex.

Reversibility and its asymptotic counting in Picard group

We investigate reversible elements in the Picard modular group $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z}[i])$. We show that reversibility coincides with strong reversibility for Kleinian groups, in particular for the Picard group. We classify reversible elements in the Picard group and characterize loxodromic reversible elements up to conjugacy. We prove that each such conjugacy class contains exactly eight special representatives. We also obtain asymptotic estimates for the number of reversible conjugacy classes with bounded trace.

Conjugator length in finitely generated groups

We describe all functions $\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ that can be realized, up to the standard equivalence, as conjugator length functions of finitely generated groups. Furthermore, we show that any two increasing functions $f,g\colon \mathbb N\to \mathbb N$ can be simultaneously realized as conjugator length functions of finitely generated, commensurable (in particular, quasi-isometric) groups.

The spectrum of conjugator length functions

A recent program tries to find which functions appear as conjugator length functions. In this note, we show that any (computable) increasing function larger than $n$ appears as $\mathrm{Cl}_G$ for some finitely generated (recursively presented) group. On the other hand, we demonstrate that either $\mathrm{Cl}_G$ must be constant or $\mathrm{Cl}_G(n)\succ n$. Combining these, we obtain a complete description of which functions appear as conjugator length functions of finitely generated groups.
