This note studies local integral gradient bounds for distributional solutions of a large class of partial differential inequalities with diffusion in divergence form and power-like first-order terms. The applications of these estimates are…

We prove a conjecture of Helfgott on the structure of sets of bounded tripling in bounded rank, which states the following. Let $A$ be a finite symmetric subset of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbf{F})$ for any field $\mathbf{F}$ such that $|A^3| \leq…

We analyze the Fourier growth, i.e. the $L_1$ Fourier weight at level $k$ (denoted $L_{1,k}$), of various well-studied classes of "structured" $\mathbb{F}_2$-polynomials. This study is motivated by applications in pseudorandomness, in…

The \emph{large rank} of a finite semigroup $\Gamma$, denoted by $r_5(\Gamma)$, is the least number $n$ such that every subset of $\Gamma$ with $n$ elements generates $\Gamma$. Howie and Ribeiro showed that $r_5(\Gamma) = |V| + 1$, where…

We give a short introduction to the subject of representation growth and representation zeta functions of groups, omitting all proofs. Our focus is on results which are relevant to the study of arithmetic groups in semisimple algebraic…

Let $s_n^\mathrm{ch}(\Gamma)$ denote the number of characteristic subgroups of index at most $n$ in a finitely generated group $\Gamma$. In response to a question of I. Rivin we show that if $\Gamma = F_r$ is the free group on $r \geq 2$…

We study rates of growth of $\|AT(t)\|$ as $t \downarrow 0$ for an immediately differentiable $C_0$-semigroup $(T(t))_{t \geq 0}$ with generator $A$. We assume that the resolvent of the semigroup generator decays on the imaginary axis at…

Let $\Delta$ be a numerical semigroup and let $d\ge 2$ be an integer. We study the fiber of the quotient map \(S\mapsto S/d\) over $\Delta$. We describe its elements as semigroups of the form $\langle X\rangle+d\Delta$, for suitable finite…

We explore "semibounded" expansions of arbitrary ordered groups; namely, expansions that do not define a field on the whole universe. We show that if $\mathcal R=\langle R, <, +, \dots\rangle$ is a semibounded o-minimal structure and…

We give sharp bounds in Breuillard, Green and Tao's finitary version of Gromov's theorem on groups with polynomial growth. Precisely, we show that for every non-negative integer d there exists $c=c(d)>0$ such that if $G$ is a group with…

In [K. Bou-Rabee, B. Seward, J. Reine Angwe. Math. 2016] Bou-Rabee and Seward constructed examples of finitely generated residually finite groups $G$ whose residual finiteness growth function $\mathcal{F}_G$ can be at least as fast as any…

Let $R$ be a complete regular local ring with an algebraically closed residue field and let $A$ be a Noetherian $R$-subalgebra of the polynomial ring $R[X]$. It has been shown in \cite{DO2} that if $\dim R=1$, then $A$ is necessarily…

We give lower and upper bounds for the separation profile (introduced by Benjamini, Schramm & Tim\'ar) for various graphs using the isoperimetric profile, growth and Hilbertian compression. For graphs which have polynomial isoperimetry and…

Let $\mathcal{PMD}_{n}$ be the semigroup consisting of all monotone and order-decreasing partial transformations, and let $\mathcal{IMD}_{n}$ be the subsemigroup of $\mathcal{PMD}_{n}$ consisting of all injective monotone and…

We study the growth of the rank of subgroups of finite index in residually finite groups, by relating it to the notion of cost. As a by-product, we show that the `Rank vs. Heegaard genus' conjecture on hyperbolic 3-manifolds is incompatible…

We show that if $f : \mathbb{A}_{\bar{\mathbb{Q}}}^r \to \mathbb{A}_{\bar{\mathbb{Q}}}^r$ is a regular self-map and $P \in \mathbb{A}^r(\bar{\mathbb{Q}})$ has $\limsup_{n \in \mathbb{N}} \frac{\log{h_{\mathrm{aff}}(f^nP)}}{\log{n}} < 1/r$,…

Assume that $S$ is a semigroup generated by $\{x_1,...,x_n\}$, and let $\Uscr$ be the multiplicative free commutative semigroup generated by $\{u_1,...,u_n\}$. We say that $S$ is of \emph{$I$-typ}e if there is a bijection $v:\Uscr\r S$ such…

Let $A = \mathbb{F}_p$ or $\mathbb{Z}_p$, and let $R = A[[x_1]][[x_2; \sigma_2, \delta_2]]\dots[[x_n;\sigma_n,\delta_n]]$, an iterated local skew power series ring over $A$. Under mild conditions, we show that (multiplicative) monomial…

The rank of a finite semigroup is the smallest number of elements required to generate the semigroup. A formula is given for the rank of an arbitrary (non necessarily regular) Rees matrix semigroup over a group. The formula is expressed in…

The representation zeta function of a profinite group $G$ encodes the distribution of continuous irreducible complex representations of $G$ as a function of the dimension. Its abscissa of convergence $\alpha(G)$ describes the polynomial…
