Abstract group actions of locally compact groups on CAT(0) spaces
We study abstract group actions of locally compact Hausdorff groups on CAT(0) spaces. Under mild assumptions on the action we show that it is continuous or has a global fixed point. This mirrors results by Dudley and Morris-Nickolas for actions on trees. As a consequence we obtain a geometric proof for the fact that any abstract group homomorphism from a locally compact Hausdorff group into a torsion free CAT(0) group is continuous.
期刊介绍:
Groups, Geometry, and Dynamics is devoted to publication of research articles that focus on groups or group actions as well as articles in other areas of mathematics in which groups or group actions are used as a main tool. The journal covers all topics of modern group theory with preference given to geometric, asymptotic and combinatorial group theory, dynamics of group actions, probabilistic and analytical methods, interaction with ergodic theory and operator algebras, and other related fields.
Topics covered include:
geometric group theory;
asymptotic group theory;
combinatorial group theory;
probabilities on groups;
computational aspects and complexity;
harmonic and functional analysis on groups, free probability;
ergodic theory of group actions;
cohomology of groups and exotic cohomologies;
groups and low-dimensional topology;
group actions on trees, buildings, rooted trees.
