Let $\Gamma$ be a non-uniform lattice in $SL(2, \mathbb R)$. In this paper, we study various $L^2$-norms of automorphic representations of $SL(2, \mathbb R)$. We bound these norms with intrinsic norms defined on the representation.…

We prove that the semistability growth of hyperbolic groups is linear, which implies that hyperbolic groups which are sci (simply connected at infinity) have linear sci growth. Based on the linearity of the end-depth of finitely presented…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the Lyapunov exponent in a meromorphic family of random products of matrices in SL(2, C), as the parameter converges to a pole. We show that the blow-up of the Lyapunov exponent is governed by a quantity…

This paper is a more succinct version of the author's 1993 UCLA mathematics thesis. It proves that any group quasi-isometric to the product of the hyperbolic plane with the real line is a finite extension of a cocompact lattice in either…

We prove that the set of fiber-bunched $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-valued H\"{o}lder cocycles with nonvanishing Lyapunov exponents over a volume preserving, accessible and center-bunched partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism is open. Moreover, we…

We examine the question of which finitely generated groups act properly on a finite product of locally finite simplicial trees and present evidence in favour of hyperbolic surface groups having such an action. We also give a completely…

We establish some conditions under which $\text{GL}(d,\mathbb{R})$-valued cocycles over a subshift of finite type, equipped with an equilibrium state, exhibit exponential asymptotics for the spectral radius. Specifically, we show that the…

The purpose of these notes is to discuss the advances in the theory of Lyapunov exponents of linear $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ cocycles over hyperbolic maps. The main focus is around results regarding the positivity of the Lyapunov exponent…

We analyse the recursive formula found for various Ext groups for $\SL_2(k)$, $k$ a field of characteristic $p$, and derive various generating functions for these groups. We use this to show that the growth rate for the cohomology of…

We derive the matrix elements of generators of unitary irreducible representations of SL(2,C) with respect to basis states arising from a decomposition into irreducible representations of SU(1,1). This is done with regard to a discrete…

We show that if a H\"{o}lder continuous linear cocycle over a hyperbolic system is measurably conjugate to a cocycle taking values in a unipotent group, then the cocycle is H\"older continuously conjugate to a cocycle taking values in a…

A complete invariant and a binary combination for irreducible representations of SL2(R) are introduced. With this, a new two-parameter family of representations is defined.

Let $R$ be an associative ring with unity $1$ and consider that $2,k$ and $2k\in \mathbb{N}$ are invertible in $R$. For $m\geq 1$ denote by $UT_n(m,R)$ and $UT_{\infty}(m,R)$, the subgroups of $UT_n(R)$ and $UT_{\infty}(R)$ respectively,…

We announce the folowing result: Any finitely generated non virtually solvable linear group over a field of characteristic zero has uniform exponential growth.

We consider Holder continuous linear cocycles over partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. For fiber bunched cocycles with one Lyapunov exponent we show continuity of measurable invariant conformal structures and sub-bundles. Further, we…

In this article we extend our previous results for the orthogonal group, $SO(2,4)$, to its homomorphic group $SU(2,2)$. Here we present a closed, finite formula for the exponential of a $4\times 4$ traceless matrix, which can be viewed as…

In this paper, we consider the order m k-automorphisms of SL(2,k). We first characterize the forms that order m k-automorphisms of SL(2,k) take and then we simple conditions on matrices A and B, involving eigenvalues and the field that the…

Experiments suggest that typical finite sets of square matrices admit spectrum maximizing products (SMPs): that is, products that attain the joint spectral radius (JSR). Furthermore, those SMPs are often combinatorially "simple." In this…

We produce examples in the cohomology of algebraic groups which answer two questions of Parshall and Scott. Specifically, if $G=SL_2$, then we show: (a) $\dim \Ext_G^2(L,L)$ can be arbitrarily large for a simple module $L$; and (b) the…

In this paper we study the (2,k)-generation of the finite classical groups SL(4,q), Sp(4,q), SU(4,q^2) and their projective images. Here k is the order of an arbitrary element of SL(2,q), subject to the necessary condition k>= 3. When q is…
