We generalize the notion of rapid decay property for a group $G$ to pairs of groups $(G,H)$ where $H$ is a finitely generated subgroup of $G$, where typically the subgroup $H$ does not have rapid decay. We deduce some isomorphisms in…

We show that a group with Kazhdan's property $(T)$ has property $(T_{B})$ for $B$ the Haagerup non-commutative $L_{p}(\mathcal{M})$-space associated with a von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{M}$, $1

We construct finitely generated groups with strong fixed point properties. Let $\mathcal{X}_{ac}$ be the class of Hausdorff spaces of finite covering dimension which are mod-$p$ acyclic for at least one prime $p$. We produce the first…

Let $\mathcal G$ be the Cayley graph of a finitely generated, infinite group $\Gamma$. We show that $\Gamma$ has the Haagerup property if and only if for every $\alpha<1$, there is a $\Gamma$-invariant bond percolation $\mathbb P$ on…

A subset $\{g_1, \ldots , g_d\}$ of a finite group $G$ invariably generates $G$ if $\{g_1^{x_1}, \ldots , g_d^{x_d}\}$ generates $G$ for every choice of $x_i \in G$. The Chebotarev invariant $C(G)$ of $G$ is the expected value of the random…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ and let $C_1, \ldots, C_t$ be non-central conjugacy classes in $G$. In this paper, we consider the problem of determining whether there exist $g_i \in C_i$ such that…

We prove that for any finite index subgroup $\Ga$ in $SL_n(\mathbb{Z})$, there exists $k=k(n)\in\mathbb{N}$, $\ep=\ep(\Ga)>0$, and an infinite family of finite index subgroups in $\Ga$ with a Kazhdan constant greater than $\ep$ with respect…

We show that for any finitely generated subgroup $H$ of a limit group $L$ there exists a finite-index subgroup $K$ containing $H$, such that $K$ is a subgroup of a group obtained from $H$ by a series of extensions of centralizers and free…

We show that $\mathcal{U}(\mathbb{Z}G)$, the unit group of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$, either satisfies Kazhdan's property (T) or is, up to commensurability, a non-trivial amalgamated product, in case $G$ is a finite group…

D. Kazhdan has introduced in 1967 the Property (T) for local compact groups. In this article we prove that for $n\geq 3$ and $m \in \mathbb{N}$ the group $SL_n(\textbf{K})\ltimes \mathcal{M}_{n,m}(\textbf{K})$ is a Kazhdan group having the…

In 2022, using methods from ergodic theory, Kra, Moreira, Richter, and Robertson resolved a longstanding conjecture of Erd\H{o}s about sumsets in large subsets of the natural numbers. In this paper, we extend this result to several…

If $\textbf{S}$ is a subcategory of metric spaces, we say that a group G has property $B\textbf{S}$ if any isometric action on an $\textbf{S}$-space has bounded orbits. Examples of such subcategories include metric spaces, affine real…

For any topological group $G$ the dual object $\hat G$ is defined as the set of equivalence classes of irreducible unitary representations of $G$ equipped with the Fell topology. If $G$ is compact, $\hat G$ is discrete, and we investigate…

The notion of strong 1-boundedness for finite von Neumann algebras was introduced by Jung in arXiv:math/0510576 . This framework provided a free probabilistic approach to study rigidity properties and classification of finite von Neumann…

We study Lipschitz-free spaces over compact and uniformly discrete metric spaces enjoying certain high regularity properties - having group structure with left-invariant metric. Using methods of harmonic analysis we show that, given a…

Let $G$ be a subgroup of a discrete (countable) group $\Gamma$. We introduce a notion of relative inner amenability of $G$ in $\Gamma$, we prove some equivalent conditions and provide examples as well as counter-examples. We also discuss…

Property $(TTT)$ was introduced by Ozawa as a strengthening of Kazhdan's property $(T)$ and Burger and Monod's property $(TT)$. In this paper, we improve Ozawa's result by showing that any simple algebraic group of rank $\geq 2$ over a…

We prove a general version of the amenability conjecture in the unified setting of a Gromov hyperbolic group G acting properly cocompactly either on its Cayley graph, or on a CAT(-1)-space. Namely, for any subgroup H of G, we show that H is…

A group $G$ is said to satisfy the finitely generated intersection property (f.g.i.p.) if the intersection of any two finitely generated subgroups of $G$ is again finitely generated. The aim of this article is to understand when the…

In this paper, we compute the {\Sigma}^n(G) and {\Omega}^n(G) invariants when 1 \rightarrow H \rightarrow G \rightarrow K \rightarrow 1 is a short exact sequence of finitely generated groups with K finite. We also give sufficient conditions…
