I'm coding a small application that looks for periodic solutions to the gravitational n-body problem. I'm trying to better understanding the symmetries of solutions, which is made up of the product of ...

Let $G$ be a lattice Fuchsian group with parabolic elements, seen as a discrete subgroup of matrices $ g= \begin{pmatrix} \alpha & \overline{\beta} \\ \beta & \overline{\alpha} \end{pmatrix} $...

We know some nice space-time have a lot of symmetries. It is said that Minkowski spacetime has $$ISO(d-1,1)/SO(d-1,1),$$ de Sitter spacetime has $$SO(d,1)/SO(d-1,1)$$ and anti-de Sitter spacetime ...

A well-known property on groups acting on trees is: Theorem: Let $T$ be a tree and $g,h \in \mathrm{Isom}(T)$ two elliptic isometries. If $\mathrm{Fix}(g) \cap \mathrm{Fix}(h) = \emptyset$ then the ...

Consider a Cayley graph of a group $G$ with respect to a symmetric finite generating set $S$. There are some obvious candidates to isometries of this graph - for example, translation by elements of $G$...
