We investigate metric conditions that allow to prove existence and uniqueness of a map solving the Monge problem between two marginals in a metric (measure) space, proving two main results. Firstly, we introduce a nonsmooth version of the…
Relaxing the Riemannian condition to incorporate geometric quantities such as torsion and non-metricity may allow to explore new physics associated with defects in a hypothetical space-time microstructure. Here we show that non-metricity…
In a pair of recent papers (one to appear and one forthcoming), the author develops a general version of small cancellation theory applicable in higher dimensions, and then applies this theory to the Burnside groups of sufficiently large…
We construct a new family of examples of parabolically geometrically finite subgroups of the mapping class group in the sense of Dowdall-Durham-Leininger-Sisto and prove they are undistorted in Mod($S$).
We continue research into the cyclically presented groups with length three positive relators. We study small cancellation conditions and SQ-universality, we obtain the Betti numbers of the groups' abelianisations, we calculate the orders…
We study irreducible restrictions from modules over alternating groups to subgroups. We get reduction results which substantially restrict the classes of subgroups and modules for which this is possible. This is known when the…
We develop techniques for classifying the nonnegatively curved left-invariant metrics on a compact Lie group G. We prove rigidity theorems for general G and a partial classification for G=SO(4). Our approach is to reduce the general…
We give an almost entirely model-theoretic account of both Ramsey classes of finite structures and of generalized indiscernibles as studied in special cases in (for example) [7], [9]. We understand "theories of indiscernibles" to be special…
We present a proof of non-amenability of R.Thompson's group F.
We prove a pointwise ergodic theorem and a maximal inequality for actions of amenable groups on noncommutative measure spaces. To do so, we establish a square function estimate quantifying the difference between ergodic averages and some…
In this short note, we give a new Menon-type identity involving the sum of element orders and the sum of cyclic subgroup orders of a finite group. It is based on applying the weighted form of Burnside's lemma to a natural group action.
The paper deals with the question of homometry in the dihedral groups $D_{n}$ of order $2n$. These groups have the specificity to be non-commutative. It leads to a new approach as compared as the one used in the traditional framework of the…
Recently Akhmedov introduced a property of finitely generated groups called the Traveller Salesman Property (TSP). It was shown by Thurston that TSP implies non-amenability. Akhmedov conjectured that R. Thompson's group $F$ has TSP. The aim…
We present a class of non-Gaussian two-mode continuous variable states for which the separability criterion for Gaussian states can be employed to detect whether they are separable or not. These states reduce to the two-mode Gaussian states…
We consider random walks on non-amenable Baumslag-Solitar groups BS(p,q) and describe their Poisson-Furstenberg boundary. The latter is a probabilistic model for the long-time behaviour of the random walk. In our situation, we identify it…
In this paper the metric on the set of mixing actions of a countable infinite group is introduced so that the corresponding space is complete and separable. Keywords and phrases. Monotilable group, measure preserving transformations, mixing…
Uncertainty relations are often considered to be a measure of incompatibility of noncommuting observables. However, such a consideration is not valid in general, motivating the need for an alternate measure that applies to any set of…
We provide a new characterization of amenability for countable groups, based on frame representations admitting almost invariant vectors. By relaxing the frame inequalities, thereby weakening amenability, we obtain a large class of…
The work discusses equivariant asymptotic dimension (also known as "wide equivariant covers", "$N$-$\mathcal F$-amenability" or "amenability dimension", and "$d$-BLR condition") and its generalisation, transfer reducibility, which are…
We give a criterion for separability of subgroups of certain outer automorphism groups. This answers questions of Hagen and Sisto, by strengthening and generalizing a result of theirs on mapping class groups.
