In this communication, the approach of phenomenological universalities of growth are considered to describe the behaviour of a system showing oscillatory growth. Two phenomenological classes are proposed to consider the behaviour of a…
Let G be a group generated by $r$ elements $g_1,g_2,..., g_r.$ Among the reduced words in $g_1,g_2,..., g_r$ of length $n$ some, say $\gamma_n,$ represent the identity element of the group $G.$ It has been shown in a combinatorial way that…
Let G be a semisimple Lie group with associated symmetric space D, and let Gamma subset G be a cocompact arithmetic group. Let L be a lattice inside a Z Gamma-module arising from a rational finite-dimensional complex representation of G.…
In this paper, we consider the conjugacy growth function of a group, which counts the number of conjugacy classes which intersect a ball of radius $n$ centered at the identity. We prove that in the case of virtually polycyclic groups, this…
This note records some observations concerning geodesic growth functions. If a nilpotent group is not virtually cyclic then it has exponential geodesic growth with respect to all finite generating sets. On the other hand, if a finitely…
Suppose $X$ and $Y$ are finite complexes, with $Y$ simply connected. Gromov conjectured that the number of mapping classes in $[X,Y]$ which can be realized by $L$-Lipschitz maps grows asymptotically as $L^\alpha$, where $\alpha$ is an…
Let $G$ be the multiplicative group generated by the gamma functions $\Gamma(ax+1)$ $(a=1,2,\dots)$, and $H$ be the subgroup of all elements of $G$ that converge to nonzero constants as $x\rightarrow\infty$. The quotient group $G/H$ is the…
In 1980 Rostislav Grigorchuk constructed a group $G$ of intermediate growth, and later obtained the following estimates on its growth $\gamma$: $e^{\sqrt{n}}\precsim\gamma(n)\precsim e^{n^\beta},$ where $\beta=\log_{32}(31)\approx0.991$. He…
The growth exponent $\alpha$ for loop-erased or Laplacian random walk on the integer lattice is defined by saying that the expected time to reach the sphere of radius $n$ is of order $n^\alpha$. We prove that in two dimensions, the growth…
We establish local $C^{1,\alpha}$-regularity for some $\alpha\in(0,1)$ and $C^{\alpha}$-regularity for any $\alpha\in(0,1)$ of local minimizers of the functional \[ v\ \mapsto\ \int_\Omega \phi(x,|Dv|)\,dx, \] where $\phi$ satisfies a…
We study rates of decay for (possibly unbounded) $C_0$-semigroups on Banach spaces under the assumption that the norm of the resolvent of the respective semigroup generator grows as a regularly varying function of type $\beta>0$, that is,…
A semigroup generated by two dimensional $C^{1+\alpha}$ contracting maps is considered. We call a such semigroup regular if the maximum $K$ of the conformal dilatations of generators, the maximum $l$ of the norms of the derivatives of…
For a finitely generated lawless group $\Gamma$ and $n \in \mathbb{N}$, let $\mathcal{A}_{\Gamma} (n)$ be the minimal positive integer $M_n$ such that for all nontrivial reduced words $w$ of length at most $n$ in the free group of fixed…
We study a one-parameter family of interval maps $\{T_\alpha\}_{\alpha\in[1,\beta]}$, with $\beta$ the golden mean, defined on $[-1,1]$ by $T_\alpha(x)=\beta^{1+|t|}x-t\beta\alpha$ where $t\in\{-1,0,1\}$. For each $T_\alpha,\ \alpha>1$, we…
Let $\beta>1$ and let $m>\be$ be an integer. Each $x\in I_\be:=[0,\frac{m-1}{\beta-1}]$ can be represented in the form \[ x=\sum_{k=1}^\infty \epsilon_k\beta^{-k}, \] where $\epsilon_k\in\{0,1,...,m-1\}$ for all $k$ (a $\beta$-expansion of…
Grigorchuk's Overgroup $\tilde{\mathcal{G}}$, is a branch group of intermediate growth. It contains the first Grigorchuk's torsion group $\mathcal{G}$ of intermediate growth constructed in 1980, but also has elements of infinite order. It's…
Let $K=Z/pZ$ and let $A$ be a subset of $\GL_r(K)$ such that $<A>$ is solvable. We reduce the study of the growth of $A$ under the group operation to the nilpotent setting. Specifically we prove that either $A$ grows rapidly (meaning…
The cogrowth of a subgroup is defined as the growth of a set of coset representatives which are of minimal length. A subgroup is essential if it intersects non-trivially every non-trivial subgroup. The main result of this paper is that…
The exponential growth rate of non polynomially growing subgroups of $GL_d$ is conjectured to admit a uniform lower bound. This is known for non-amenable subgroups, while for amenable subgroups it is known to imply the Lehmer conjecture…
In this paper, experimental data is presented and a simple model is developed for the time evolution of a F-amp \textit{E. Coli} culture population. In general, the bacteria life cycle as revealed by monitoring a culture's population…
