We observe that a function on a group equipped with a bi-invariant word metric is Lipschitz if and only if it is a partial quasimorphism bounded on the generating set. We also show that an undistorted element is always detected by an…

The germ of an algebraic variety is naturally equipped with two different metrics up to bilipschitz equivalence. The inner metric and the outer metric. One calls a germ of a variety Lipschitz normally embedded if the two metrics are…

We show that for $0<\gamma, \gamma' <1$ and for measurable subsets of the unit square with Lebesgue measure $\gamma$ there exist bi-Lipschitz maps with bounded Lipschitz constant (uniformly over all such sets) which are identity on the…

Two infinite sequences A and B of non-negative integers are called additive complements, if their sum contains all sufficiently large integers. Let $A(x)$ and $B(x)$ be the counting functions of A and B. In this paper, we extend the results…

Bader, Furman and Sauer have introduced the notion of integrable measure equivalence for finitely-generated groups. This is the sub-equivalence relation of measure equivalence obtained by insisting that the relevant cocycles satisfy an…

The number theoretic analogue of a net in metric geometry suggests new problems and results in combinatorial and additive number theory. For example, for a fixed integer g > 1, the study of h-nets in the additive group of integers with…

A function on a discrete group is weakly combable if its discrete derivative with respect to a combing can be calculated by a finite state automaton. A weakly combable function is bicombable if it is Lipschitz in both the left and right…

We prove that all (generalized) Higman groups on at least $5$ generators are superrigid for measure equivalence. More precisely, let $k\ge 5$, and let $H$ be a group with generators $a_1,\dots,a_k$, and Baumslag-Solitar relations given by…

In this short note, we consider the problem of bi-Lipschitz contact equivalence of complex analytic function-germs of two variables. It is inquiring about the infinitesimal sizes of such function-germs, up to bi-Lipschitz changes of…

Natural language processing researchers have identified limitations of evaluation methodology for generation tasks, with new questions raised about the validity of automatic metrics and of crowdworker judgments. Meanwhile, efforts to…

We prove a product theorem for sublinear bilipschitz equivalences which generalizes the classical work of Kapovich, Kleiner and Leeb on quasiisometries between product spaces. We employ our product theorem to distinguish up to quasiisometry…

We consider left-invariant distances $d$ on a Lie group $G$ with the property that there exists a multiplicative one-parameter group of Lie automorphisms $(0, \infty)\rightarrow\mathtt{Aut}(G)$, $\lambda\mapsto\delta_\lambda$, so that $…

The main goal of this work is to show that if two weighted homogeneous (but not homogeneous) function-germs $(\C^2,0)\to(\C,0)$ are bi-Lipschitz equivalent, in the sense that these function-germs can be included in a strongly bi-Lipschitz…

We study invariant and bi-invariant metrics on groups focusing on finite groups $G$. We show that non-equivalent (bi) invariant metrics on $G$ are in 1-1 correspondence with unitary symmetric (conjugate) partitions on $G$. To every metric…

Given a finite group with a generating subset there is a well-established notion of length for a group element given in terms of its minimal length expression as a product of elements from the generating set. Recently, certain quantities…

We show that certain lamplighter groups that are quasi-isometric to each other are not bilipschitz equivalent. This gives a positive answer to a question in Topics in Geometric Group Theory by Pierre de la Harpe (page 107).

In this paper, we study a class $\mathcal{A}(\lambda ,n,m)$ of self-similar sets with $m$ exact overlaps generated by $n$ similitudes of the same ratio $ \lambda $. We obtain a necessary condition for a self-similar set in…

In "On the asymptotics of the growth of 2-step nilpotent groups" (J. London Math. Soc. (2), 58 (1998)), we remarked that, contrary to 2-step nilpotent simply connected Lie groups, in 3-step nilpotent simply connected Lie groups it is…

We show that the equality language of two non-periodic binary morphisms is generated by at most two words. If its rank is two, then the generators start (and end) with different letters. This in particular implies that any binary language…

We show that for any finitely generated group of matrices that is not virtually solvable, there is an integer m such that, given an arbitrary finite generating set for the group, one may find two elements a and b that are both products of…
