Homogeneous three-dimensional Riemannian spaces

2020

The necessary and sufficient conditions for a three-dimensional Riemannian metric to admit a transitive group of isometries are obtained. These conditions are Intrinsic, Deductive, Explicit and ALgorithmic, and they offer an IDEAL labeling of these geometries. It is shown that the transitive action of the group naturally falls into an unfolding of some of the ten types in the Bianchi-Behr classification. Explicit conditions, depending on the Ricci tensor, are obtained that characterize all these types.

Highly transitive actions of free products

2013

We characterize free products admitting a faithful and highly transitive action. In particular, we show that the group $\PSL_2(\Z)\simeq (\Z/2\Z)*(\Z/3\Z)$ admits a faithful and highly transitive action on a countable set.

Highly transitive actions of groups acting on trees

2015

We show that a group acting on a non-trivial tree with finite edge stabilizers and icc vertex stabilizers admits a faithful and highly transitive action on an infinite countable set. This result is actually true for infinite vertex stabilizers and some more general, finite of infinite, edge stabilizers that we call highly core-free. We study the notion of highly core-free subgroups and give some examples. In the case of amalgamated free products over highly core-free subgroups and HNN extensions with highly core-free base groups we obtain a genericity result for faithful and highly transitive actions. In particular, we recover the result of D. Kitroser stating that the fundamental group of …
