Zariski-closures of linear reflection groups
- Sami Douba (University of Bonn)
Abstract
We show that linear reflection groups in the sense of Vinberg are often Zariski-dense in PGL(n). Among the applications are examples of low-dimensional closed hyperbolic manifolds whose fundamental groups virtually embed as Zariski-dense subgroups of SL(n,Z), as well as some one-ended Zariski-dense subgroups of SL(n,Z) that are finitely generated but infinitely presented, for all sufficiently large n. This is joint work with Jacques Audibert, Gye-Seon Lee, and Ludovic Marquis.
