AbstractWe give explicit examples of asymmetric Riemann surfaces (that is, Riemann surfaces with trivial conformal automorphism group) for all genera g ≥ 3. The technique uses Schreier coset diagrams to construct torsion-free subgroups in groups of signature (0; 2,3,r) for certain values of r.

We study a torsion free weakly branch group G without free subgroups defined by a three state automaton which appears in different problems related to amenability, Galois groups and monodromy. Here and in the forthcoming paper [20] we establish several important properties of G related to fractalness, branchness, just infinitness, growth, amenability and presentations.

We use a Betti number estimate of Freedman-Hain-Teichner to show that the maximal torsion-free nilpotent quotient of the fundamental group of a 3-manifold with boundary is either Z or Z ⊕ Z. In particular we reobtain the Evans-Moser classification of 3-manifolds with boundary which have nilpotent fundamental groups.
