In this monograph, we give an account of the relationship between the algebraic structure of finitely generated and countable groups and the regularity with which they act on manifolds. We concentrate on the case of one--dimensional manifolds, culminating with a uniform construction of finitely generated groups acting with prescribed regularity on the compact interval and on the circle. We develop the theory of dynamical obstructions to smoothness, beginning with classical results of Denjoy, to more recent results of Kopell, and to modern results such as the $abt$--Lemma. We give a classification of the right-angled Artin groups that have finite critical regularity and discuss their exact critical regularities in many cases, and we compute the virtual critical regularity of most mapping class groups of orientable surfaces.

We show that if $G_1$ and $G_2$ are non-solvable groups, then no $C^{1,tau}$ action of $(G_1times G_2)*mathbb{Z}$ on $S^1$ is faithful for $tau>0$. As a corollary, if $S$ is an orientable surface of complexity at least three then the critical regular
ity of an arbitrary finite index subgroup of the mapping class group $mathrm{Mod}(S)$ with respect to the circle is at most one, thus strengthening a result of the first two authors with Baik.
We establish lower bounds on the dimensions in which arithmetic groups with torsion can act on acyclic manifolds and homology spheres. The bounds rely on the existence of elementary p-groups in the groups concerned. In some cases, including Sp(2n,Z),
the bounds we obtain are sharp: if X is a generalized Z/3-homology sphere of dimension less than 2n-1 or a Z/3-acyclic Z/3-homology manifold of dimension less than 2n, and if n geq 3, then any action of Sp(2n,Z) by homeomorphisms on X is trivial; if n = 2, then every action of Sp(2n,Z) on X factors through the abelianization of Sp(4,Z), which is Z/2.
We study two transitivity properties for group actions on buildings, called Weyl transitivity and strong transitivity. Following hints by Tits, we give examples involving anisotropic algebraic groups to show that strong transitivity is strictly stron
ger than Weyl transitivity. A surprising feature of the examples is that strong transitivity holds more often than expected.
Let $Gamma$ be a finitely generated group and $X$ be a minimal compact $Gamma$-space. We assume that the $Gamma$-action is micro-supported, i.e. for every non-empty open subset $U subseteq X$, there is an element of $Gamma$ acting non-trivially on $U
$ and trivially on the complement $X setminus U$. We show that, under suitable assumptions, the existence of certain commensurated subgroups in $Gamma$ yields strong restrictions on the dynamics of the $Gamma$-action: the space $X$ has compressible open subsets, and it is an almost $Gamma$-boundary. Those properties yield in turn restrictions on the structure of $Gamma$: $Gamma$ is neither amenable nor residually finite. Among the applications, we show that the (alternating subgroup of the) topological full group associated to a minimal and expansive Cantor action of a finitely generated amenable group has no commensurated subgroups other than the trivial ones. Similarly, every commensurated subgroup of a finitely generated branch group is commensurate to a normal subgroup; the latter assertion relies on an appendix by Dominik Francoeur, and generalizes a result of Phillip Wesolek on finitely generated just-infinite branch groups. Other applications concern discrete groups acting on the circle, and the centralizer lattice of non-discrete totally disconnected locally compact (tdlc) groups. Our results rely, in an essential way, on recent results on the structure of tdlc groups, on the dynamics of their micro-supported actions, and on the notion of uniformly recurrent subgroups.
Denote by $DC(M)_0$ the identity component of the group of compactly supported $C^infty$ diffeomorphisms of a connected $C^infty$ manifold $M$, and by $HR$ the group of the homeomorphisms of $R$. We show that if $M$ is a closed manifold which fibers
over $S^m$ ($mgeq 2$), then any homomorphism from $DC(M)_0$ to $HR$ is trivial.
