چکیده
If G is a semisimple Lie group of real rank at least two and Γ is an irreducible lattice in G, then every homomorphism from Γ to the outer automorphism group of a finitely generated free group has finite image.

Rank one phenomena for mapping class groups
Let Σg be a closed, orientable, connected surface of genus g ≥ 1. The mapping class group Mod(Σg) is the group Homeo(Σg)/Homeo0(Σg) of isotopy classes of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of Σg. It has been a recurring theme to compare the group Mod(Σg) and its action on the Teichmüller space T (Σg) to lattices in simple Lie groups and their actions on the associated symmetric spaces. Indee...
متن کاملLocal rigidity of certain partially hyperbolic actions of product type
We prove certain rigidity properties of higher-rank abelian product actions of the type α × Id N : Z κ → Diff(M × N), where α is (TNS) (i.e. is hyperbolic and has some special structure of its stable distributions). Together with a result about product actions of property (T) groups, this implies the local rigidity of higher-rank lattice actions of the form α × Id T : → Diff(M × T), provided α ...
متن کاملConstructions of Cocompact Lattices in Certain Higher-rank Complete Kac–moody Groups
Let G be a complete Kac–Moody group of rank n ≥ 2 such that the Weyl group of G is a free product of cyclic groups of order 2. We construct new families of examples of cocompact lattices in G, many of which act transitively on the chambers of the building for G.

We prove geometric superrigidity for actions of cocompact lattices in semisimple Lie groups of higher rank on infinite dimensional Riemannian manifolds of nonpositive curvature and finite telescopic dimension.

In this paper we study perturbations of constant co-cycles for actions of higher rank semi-simple algebraic groups and their lattices. Roughly speaking, for ergodic actions, Zimmer's co-cycle superrigidity theorems implies that the perturbed cocycle is measurably conjugate to a constant cocycle modulo a compact valued cocycle. The main point of this article is to see that a cocycle which is a c...
