Cremona group and CAT(0) cube complexes

13.01.2026 15:00 - 16:30

Anne Lonjou (Paris-Saclay)

The Cremona group is the group of birational transformations of the projective plane, namely isomorphisms between two dense open subsets. This group acts on a CAT(0) cube complex that we constructed with Urech. After an introduction on Cremona group and CAT(0) cube complexes, I will focus on fixed-point property for actions on CAT(0) cube complexes and explain how it is related to an open question for the Cremona group.
