For any order of growth $f(n)=o(\log n)$ we construct a finitely-generated group $G$ and a set of generators $S$ such that the Cayley graph of $G$ with respect to $S$ supports a harmonic function with growth $f$ but does not support any…
We prove a Law of Iterated Logarithm for random walks on a family of diagonal products constructed by Brieussel and Zheng (2021). This provides a wide variety of new examples of Law of Iterated Logarithm behaviours for random walks on…
Let $N$ be a finitely generated nilpotent group. The subgroup zeta function $\zeta_N^{\leq}(s)$ and the normal zeta function $\zeta_N^\lhd(s)$ of $N$ are Dirichlet series enumerating the finite index subgroups or the finite index normal…
To every finitely generated group one can assign the conjugacy growth function that counts the number of conjugacy classes intersecting a ball of radius $n$. Results of Ivanov and Osin show that the conjugacy growth function may be constant…
In this paper we study the set of digit frequencies that are realised by elements of the set of $\beta$-expansions. The main result of this paper demonstrates that as $\beta$ approaches $1,$ the set of digit frequencies that occur amongst…
We present a survey of results related to the Milnor's problem on group growth. We discuss the cases of polynomial growth, exponential but not uniformly exponential growth, but the main part of the article is devoted to the intermediate…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of the following linear growth-fragmentation equation$$\dfrac{\partial}{\partial t} u(t,x) + \dfrac{\partial}{\partial x} \big(x u(t,x)\big) + B(x) u(t,x) =4 B(2x)u(t,2x),$$ and prove that under fairly…
On torsion Grigorchuk groups we construct random walks of finite entropy and power-law tail decay with non-trivial Poisson boundary. Such random walks provide near optimal volume lower estimates for these groups. In particular, for the…
It was shown by S. Kalikow and B. Weiss that, given a measure-preserving action of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ on a probability space $X$ and a nonnegative measurable function $f$ on $X$, the probability that the sequence of ergodic averages $$ \frac 1…
A group presentation is said to have rational growth if the generating series associated to its growth function represents a rational function. A long-standing open question asks whether the Heisenberg group has rational growth for all…
The intersection growth of a group $G$ is the asymptotic behavior of the index of the intersection of all subgroups of $G$ with index at most $n$, and measures the Hausdorff dimension of $G$ in profinite metrics. We study intersection…
We study growth of 1-cocycles of locally compact groups, with values in unitary representations. Discussing the existence of 1-cocycles with linear growth, we obtain the following alternative for a class of amenable groups G containing…
A group action on a metric space is called growth tight if the exponential growth rate of the group with respect to the induced pseudo-metric is strictly greater than that of its quotients. A prototypical example is the action of a free…
Growth-fragmentation processes model systems of cells that grow continuously over time and then fragment into smaller pieces. Typically, on average, the number of cells in the system exhibits asynchronous exponential growth and, upon…
We study a function $\mathcal{L}_{\Gamma}$ which quantifies the LEF (local embeddability into finite groups) property for a finitely generated group $\Gamma$. We compute this "LEF growth" function in some examples, including certain wreath…
The previous attempts of reconstructing the Gell-Mann-Low function \beta(g) of the \phi^4 theory by summing perturbation series give the asymptotic behavior \beta(g) = \beta_\infty g^\alpha in the limit g\to \infty, where \alpha \approx 1…
The $\beta$-functions describe how couplings run under the renormalization group flow in field theories. In general, all couplings that respect the symmetry and locality are generated under the renormalization group flow, and the exact…
A group $G$ is called residually finite if for every non-trivial element $g \in G$, there exists a finite quotient $Q$ of $G$ such that the element $g$ is non-trivial in the quotient as well. Instead of just investigating whether a group…
The circular $\beta$ ensemble for $\beta =1,2$ and 4 corresponds to circular orthogonal, unitary and symplectic ensemble respectively as introduced by Dyson. The statistical state of the eigenvalues is then a determinantal point process…
The equational complexity function $\beta_\mathscr{V}:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$ of an equational class of algebras $\mathscr{V}$ bounds the size of equation required to determine membership of $n$-element algebras in $\mathscr{V}$. Known…
