We consider continuous $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ valued cocycles over general dynamical systems and discuss a variety of uniformity notions. In particular, we provide a description of uniform one-parameter families of continuous…
We study singular value potentials of H\"older continuous $GL_2(\mathbb{R})$-cocycles over hyperbolic systems whose canonical holonomies converge and are H\"older continuous. Such cocycles include locally constant…
We investigate the properties of uniform doubly stochastic random matrices, that is non-negative matrices conditioned to have their rows and columns sum to 1. The rescaled marginal distributions are shown to converge to exponential…
Finite dimensional linear spaces (both complex and real) with indefinite scalar product [.,.] are considered. Upper and lower bounds are given for the size of an indecomposable matrix that is normal with respect to this scalar product in…
We give an example of a subgroup of SL(2,C) which is a strictly ascending HNN extension of a non-abelian finitely generated free group F. In particular, we exhibit a free group F in SL(2,C) of rank 6 which is conjugate to a proper subgroup…
We consider H\"older continuous $GL(d,\mathbb R)$-valued cocycles, and more generally linear cocycles, over an accessible volume-preserving center-bunched partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism. We study the regularity of a conjugacy between…
We study random products of matrices in SL_2(C) from the point of view of holomorphic dynamics. For non-elementary measures with finite first moment we obtain the exponential convergence towards the stationary measure in Sobolev norm. As a…
We study rigidity properties of lattices in hyperbolic n-space with n>2 and of surface groups in the context of (integrable) measure equivalence. The results for lattices in hyperbolic n-space with n>2 are generalizations of Mostow…
We discuss the linearity and discreteness of amalgamated products of linear word-hyperbolic groups. In particular, we prove that the double of an Anosov group along a maximal cyclic subgroup is always linear, and we construct examples of…
We consider Holder continuous GL(2,R)-valued cocycles over a transitive Anosov diffeomorphism. We give a complete classification up to Holder cohomology of cocycles with one Lyapunov exponent and of cocycles that preserve two transverse…
Generalising results of Razborov and Safin, and answering a question of Button, we prove that for every hyperbolic group there exists a constant $\alpha >0$ such that for every finite subset $U$ that is not contained in a virtually cyclic…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and $\mathbb{K}[x,y]$ the polynomial ring. The group $\text{SL}_{2}\left(\mathbb{K}[x,y]\right)$ of all matrices with determinant equal to $1$ over $\mathbb{K}[x,y]$…
We provide a family of representations of GL(2n) over a p-adic field that admit a non-vanishing linear functional invariant under the symplectic group (i.e. representations that are Sp(2n)- distinguished). While our result generalizes a…
Let $G$ denote the projective special linear group $\text{PSL}(2,q)$, for a prime power $q$. It is shown that a finite 2-subgroup of the group $V(\mathbb{Z}G)$ of augmentation 1 units in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}G$ of $G$ is…
In this letter, we establish a general fact about the convergence of images of families of closed analytic surfaces in the special linear group $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ under the quotient by its maximal compact subgroup…
We show that a relatively hyperbolic group either is virtually cyclic or has uniform exponential growth.
We present an example of a discontinuity point for the Lyapunov exponents when viewed as a function of the cocycle in a topology finer than the $C^0$-topology. The linear cocycle taking values in SL(2,R) is locally constant, defined over a…
We prove a reducibility result for sl(2,R) quasi-periodic cocycles close to a constant elliptic matrix in ultra-differentiable classes, under an adapted arithmetic condition which extends the Brjuno-R{\"u}ssmann condition in the analytic…
We extend the results of Watson, which link quantum unique ergodicity on arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces with subconvexity for the triple product L function, to the case of arithmetic hyperbolic three manifolds. We work with the full unitary…
We study the smooth untwisted cohomology with real coefficients for the action on [SL(2, R) \times \cdot \cdot \cdot \times SL(2, R)]/{\Gamma} by the subgroup of diagonal matrices, where {\Gamma} is an irreducible lattice. In the top…
