Pseudo-automorphisms are birational transformations acting as regular automorphisms in codimension 1 . We import ideas from geometric group theory to prove that a group of birational transformations that satisfies a fixed point property on cat ( 0 ) cubical complexes, for example a discrete group with Kazhdan Property (T), is birationally conjugate to a group acting by pseudo-automorphisms on some non-empty Zariski-open subset. We apply this argument to classify groups of birational transformations of surfaces with this fixed point property up to birational conjugacy.
