These are lecture notes that are based on the lectures from a class I taught on the topic of Randomized Linear Algebra (RLA) at UC Berkeley during the Fall 2013 semester.

This thesis studies arithmetic of linear algebraic groups. It involves studying the properties of linear algebraic groups defined over global fields, local fields and finite fields, or more generally the study of the linear algebraic groups…

We study the problem of finding, in a real algebraic matrix group, the matrix closest to a given data matrix. We do so from the algebro-geometric perspective of Euclidean distance degrees. We recover several classical results; and among the…

This text is an extended version of the lecture notes for a course on representation theory of finite groups that was given by the authors during several years for graduate and postgraduate students of Novosibirsk State University and…

We revisit Margulis-Zimmer Super-Rigidity and provide some generalizations. In particular we obtain super-rigidity results for lattices in higher-rank groups or product of groups, targeting at algebraic groups over arbitrary fields with…

We summarize the parallel session B4: 'Analytic approximations, perturbation theory effective field theory methods and their applications' and the joint session B2/B4: 'Approximate solutions to Einstein equations: Methods and Applications',…

Relations and interactions between the theorems of Ash, Herwig--Lascar and Ribes--Zalesskii are discussed and it is shown that these three theorems are equivalent in the sense that each of them can be derived from each other one. Some…

These are expanded notes of a course given in Grenoble in june 2004. After a brief description of the harmonic map proof of Margulis' superrigidity and arithmeticity theorems, it is shown how the method might generalize to fundamental…

We survey a research program on the strong convergence of unitary and permutation representations of discrete groups. We also take the opportunity to flesh out details that have not appeared elsewhere.

These are the lecture notes of a 2-hour mini-course on Lie groups over local fields presented at the "Workshop on Totally Disconnected Groups, Graphs and Geometry" at the Heinrich-Fabri-Institut Blaubeuren in May 2007. The goal of the notes…

These are the proceedings of the workshop on "Strong interactions: From methods to structures" held at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef of the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft, Bad Honnef, Germany from February 12 to 16, 2011. The workshop…

This is an expository paper (in Spanish) about the metric approximation of groups.

This is an expanded version of the author's lecture at the Conference in Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry in Messina Italy in June 1999. The purpose of the talk was to give a brief introduction to the subject of tight closure,…

Survey article on loop groups and their representations, following a course of three lectures held at the summer school "algebraic groups" at the Georg-August-Universitaet zu Goettingen, June 27--July 13, 2005. We discuss loop groups, their…

These are notes for a summer course given at the PIMS Summer School on Geometric and Topological Aspects of the Representation Theory of Finite Groups in Vancouver, July 27-30 2016.

In a previous paper I gave a presentation for the Quillen higher algebraic K-groups of an exact category in terms of "acyclic binary multicomplexes". In this paper I take that presentation as a definition of the higher K-groups, generalize…

Refined Algebraic Quantization and Group Averaging are powerful methods for quantizing constrained systems. They give constructive algorithms for generating observables and the physical inner product. This work outlines the current status…

This paper is an extended version of a series of lectures on polar spaces given during the workshop and conference 'Groups and Geometries', held at the Indian Statistical Institute in Bangalore in December 2012. The aim of this paper is to…

We give an extension of Margulis' Super-Rigidity for higher rank lattices. In our approach the target group could be defined over any complete valued field. Our proof is based on the notion of Algebraic Representation of Ergodic Actions.

This is an expository paper, based on by a talk given at the AWM Research Symposium 2017. It is intended as a gentle introduction to geometric group theory with a focus on the notion of hyperbolicity, a theme that has inspired the field…
