We prove that the reduced Kurosh rank of the intersection of two subgroups $H$ and $K$ of a free product of right-orderable groups is bounded above by the product of the reduced Kurosh ranks of $H$ and $K$. In particular, taking the…
We show that the tangent cone at the identity is not a complete quasiconformal invariant for sub-Riemannian nilpotent groups. Namely, we show that there exists a nilpotent Lie group equipped with left invariant sub-Riemannian metric that is…
In this paper we study the property of geometric equivalence of groups introduced by B. Plotkin \cite{P1, P2}. Sufficient and necessary conditions are presented for a $\pi$-torsion-free nilpotent group to be geometrically equivalent to its…
We prove that Kleinian groups whose limit sets are Cantor sets of Hausdorff dimension $<1$ are free. On the other hand we construct for any $\epsilon>0$ examples of non-free purely hyperbolic Kleinian groups whose limit set is a Cantor set…
A Riemannian n-manifold M has k-dimensional Uryson width bounded by a constant c >0 if there exists a continuous map f from M to an k-dimensional polyhedral space P, such that the pullbacks f^{-1}(p) of all points p in P have diameters…
We prove an analogue of the Baum-Connes conjecture for free orthogonal quantum groups. More precisely, we show that these quantum groups have a $ \gamma $-element and that $ \gamma = 1 $. It follows that free orthogonal quantum groups are $…
Given a finitely generated, torsion-free nilpotent group, we find the maximum possible (critical) regularity for its faithful actions by diffeomorphisms of the closed or half-open interval and of the circle. Our result gives an expression…
In commutative algebra, if $\delta$ is a locally nilpotent derivation of the polynomial algebra $K[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$ over a field $K$ of characteristic 0 and $w$ is a nonzero element of the kernel of $\delta$, then $\Delta=w\delta$ is also a…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic different from $2$ and let $G$ be a nonabelian residually torsion-free nilpotent group. It is known that $G$ is an orderable group. Let $k(G)$ denote the subdivision ring of the Malcev-Neumann series…
It is shown that finite groups in which the order of the product of every pair of elements of co-prime order is the product of the orders, is nilpotent.
We establish a new version of Siegel's lemma over a number field $k$, providing a bound on the maximum of heights of basis vectors of a subspace of $k^N$, $N \geq 2$. In addition to the small-height property, the basis vectors we obtain…
We are interested in the number of nodal domains of eigenfunctions of sub-Laplacians on sub-Riemannian manifolds. Specifically, we investigate the validity of Pleijel's theorem, which states that, as soon as the dimension is strictly larger…
We prove that the Bergman kernel function associated to a smooth measure supported on a piecewise-smooth maximally totally real submanifold K in C^n is of polynomial growth (e.g, in dimension one, K is a finite union of transverse Jordan…
We classify finite-dimensional Nichols algebras over finite nilpotent groups of odd order in group-theoretical terms. The main step is to show that the conjugacy classes of such finite groups are either abelian or of type C; this property…
We prove that the $k$th term of the lower central series of a finite group $G$ is nilpotent if and only if $|ab|=|a||b|$ for any $\gamma_k$-commutators $a,b\in G$ of coprime orders.
We note a link between combinatorial results of Bollob\'as and Leader concerning sumsets in the grid, the Brunn-Minkowski theorem and a result of Freiman and Bilu concerning the structure of sets of integers with small doubling. Our main…
We show that for a large class $\mathcal{C}$ of finitely generated groups of orientation preserving homeomorphisms of the real line, the following holds: Given a group $G$ of rank $k$ in $\mathcal{C}$, there is a sequence of $k$-markings…
Let $k$ be a unital commutative ring. In this paper, we study polynomial functors from the category of finitely generated free nilpotent groups to the category of $k$-modules, focusing on comparisons across different nilpotency classes and…
For tensors of fixed order, we establish three types of upper bounds for the geometric rank in terms of the subrank. Firstly, we prove that, under a mild condition on the characteristic of the base field, the geometric rank of a tensor is…
Considering a particular case of a problem posed by Saharon Shelah, we prove that the automorphism group of an infinitely generated free nilpotent group N first-order interprets the full second-order theory of the set rank(N) in the empty…
