For Lie groups $G$ of the form $G = \R^k \ltimes_{\phi} \R^m$, with $k + m$ even, a result of H. Kasuya shows that if the action $\phi:\R^k \to \mathrm{Aut}(\R^m)$ is semisimple then any symplectic solvmanifold $(\Gamma \backslash G,…

Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete subgroup of a unimodular locally compact group $G$. In Math. Ann. 388, 4251-4305 (2024), it was shown that the $L_p$ norm of a Fourier multiplier $m$ on $\Gamma$ can be bounded locally by its $L_p$-norm on $G$,…

We consider semi-direct products $\C^{n}\ltimes_{\phi}N$ of Lie groups with lattices $\Gamma$ such that $N$ are nilpotent Lie groups with left-invariant complex structures. We compute the Dolbeault cohomology of direct sums of holomorphic…

Suppose $\Gamma$ is an arithmetic group defined over a global field $K$, that the $K$-type of $\Gamma$ is $A_n$ with $n \geq 2$, and that the ambient semisimple group that contains $\Gamma$ as a lattice has at least two noncocompact…

Let $G$ be a right-angled Artin group with defining graph $\Gamma$ and let $H$ be a finitely generated group quasi-isometric to $G(\Gamma)$. We show if $G$ satisfies (1) its outer automorphism group is finite; (2) $\Gamma$ does not have…

Given a lattice \Gamma in a locally compact group G and a closed subgroup H of G, one has a natural action of \Gamma on the homogeneous space V=H\G. For an increasing family of finite subsets {\Gamma_T: T>0}, a dense orbit v\Gamma, v\in V,…

A cocompact lattice in a semisimple Lie group $G$ is a discrete subgroup $\Gamma$ such that the quotient $G/\Gamma$ is compact. Does such a lattice always contain a surface group, i.e. a subgroup isomorphic to the fundamental group of a…

Let $G$ be a finite insoluble group with soluble radical $ R(G)$. The solubility graph $\Gamma_{\rm S}(G)$ of $G$ is a simple graph whose vertices are the elements of $G\setminus R(G) $ and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if…

We study compact and locally compact topological analogues of the Byott--Vendramin solvability problem for finite skew braces, asking whether solvability of the additive group forces solvability of the multiplicative group. Our main theorem…

We show that an arithmetic lattice $\Gamma$ in a semi-simple Lie group $G$ contains a torsion-free subgroup of index $\delta(v)$ where $v = \mu (G/\Gamma)$ is the co-volume of the lattice. We prove that $\delta$ is polynomial in general and…

The Oscillator Groups,$\G_\lambda,$ are the only solvable, non commutative, simply connected Lie groups to admit a Lorentzian bi-invariant metric. For these groups, we give sufficient conditions for a left-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric…
