For a closed cocompact subgroup $\Gamma$ of a locally compact group $G$, given a compact abelian subgroup $K$ of $G$ and a homomorphism $\rho:\hat{K}\to G$ satisfying certain conditions, Landstad and Raeburn constructed equivariant…

We study Morse representations of discrete subgroups in higher rank semi-simple Lie groups defined by M. Kapovich, B. Leeb and J. Porti. We show that, if a sequence of Morse representations $\rho_n : \Gamma \rightarrow G$ is (strongly)…

A convex optimization problem in conic form involves minimizing a linear functional over the intersection of a convex cone and an affine subspace. In some cases, it is possible to replace a conic formulation using a certain cone, with a…

Thorne introduced the notion of adequate representations as a weakening of the big representations used by Wiles and Taylor and others. In this appendix to Dieulefait's paper, Automorphy of Symm5(GL(2)) and base change, we show that certain…

Let $G$ be a connected and simply connected semisimple algebraic group over $\Bbb Q$ and let $\Gamma\subset G(\Bbb Q)$ be an arithmetic subgroup. Let $K_\infty\subset G(\Bbb R)$ be a maximal compact subgroup and let $d$ be the dimension of…

Let Gamma be a finitely generated nilpotent group. We consider three closely related problems: (i) the asymptotic cone for an equivariant ergodic family of inner metrics on Gamma, generalizing Pansu's theorem; (ii) the limit shapes for…

The notion of Anosov representations has been introduced by Labourie in his study of the Hitchin component for SL(n,R). Subsequently, Anosov representations have been studied mainly for surface groups, in particular in the context of higher…

Let F be a totally real number field, n a prime integer, and G a unitary group of rank n defined over F that is compact at every infinite place. We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of cuspidal automorphic representations of G…

We study the critical exponents of discrete subgroups of a higher rank semi-simple real linear Lie group $G$. Let us fix a Cartan subspace $\mathfrak a\subset \mathfrak g$ of the Lie algebra of $G$. We show that if $\Gamma< G$ is a discrete…

Let G be a connected reductive group over a finite field F_q. A map from irreducible representations of G(F_q) to semisimple classes in the dual group was defined by a cohomological method by Deligne and the author in 1976. Here we show…

We interpret the Hilbert entropy of a convex projective structure on a closed higher-genus surface as the Hausdorff dimension of the non-differentiability points of the limit set in the full flag space $\mathcal F(\mathbb R^3)$.…

Let G be a complex semisimple Lie group, K a maximal compact subgroup and V an irreducible representation of K. Denote by M the unique closed orbit of G in P(V) and by O its image via the moment map. For any measure on M we construct a map…

We prove uniform Ancona-Gou\"ezel-Lalley inequalities for an extension by a hyperbolic group $G$ of a Markov map which allows to deduce that the visual boundary of the group and the Martin boundary are H\"older equivalent. As application,…

Babai's conjecture states that, for any finite simple non-abelian group $G$, the diameter of $G$ is bounded by $(\log|G|)^{C}$ for some absolute constant $C$. We prove that, for any untwisted classical group $G$ of rank $r$ defined over a…

We prove a von Neumann type ergodic theorem for averages of unitary operators arising from the Furstenberg-Poisson boundary representation (the quasi-regular representation) of any lattice in a non-compact connected semisimple Lie group…

We prove that the cohomology of semi-simple Lie groups admits boundary values, which are measurable cocycles on the Furstenberg boundary. This generalises known invariants such as the Maslov index on Shilov boundaries, the Euler class on…

We prove a {\Gamma}-equivariant version of the algebraic index theorem, where {\Gamma} is a discrete group of automorphisms of a formal deformation of a symplectic manifold. The particular cases of this result are the algebraic version of…

We establish new strong lower bounds on the (subnormal) subgroup growth of a large class of groups. This includes the fundamental groups of all finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds and all (free non-abelian)-by-cyclic groups. The lower…

Let $M$ be pseudo-Riemannian homogeneous Einstein manifold of finite volume, and suppose a connected Lie group $G$ acts transitively and isometrically on $M$. In this situation, the metric on $M$ induces a bilinear form…

We give a general asymptotic formula for the growth rate of the number of indecomposable summands in the tensor powers of representations of finite groups, over a field of arbitrary characteristic. In characteristic zero we obtain…
