Let $X$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf{k}$ and $f$ a quasi-unipotent automorphism of $X$. When $\mathbf{k}$ is the field of complex numbers, Lin, Oguiso, and D.-Q. Zhang provide an explicit formula for the…

The aim of this paper is to investigate weakly developable spaces. For a comparison with semi-metrizable spaces, we introduce and study a class of spaces among those of weakly developable spaces, semimetrizable spaces and first countable…

Let $k$ be a perfect field. Assume that the characteristic of $k$ satisfies certain tameness assumptions \eqref{tameness}. Let $\mathcal O_{_n} := k\llbracket z_{_1}, \ldots, z_{_n}\rrbracket$ and set $K_{_n} := \text{Fract}~\cO_{_n}$. Let…

We announce new results concerning the asymptotic behavior of the Betti numbers of higher rank locally symmetric spaces as their volumes tend to infinity. Our main theorem is a uniform version of the L\"uck Approximation Theorem…

We consider $C^2$ Fr\'echet differentiable mappings of Banach spaces leaving invariant compactly supported Borel probability measures, and study the relation between entropy and volume growth for a natural notion of volume defined on finite…

We study projectivity in the category of $G$-flows and affine $G$-flows for Polish groups $G$. We also introduce the notion of \emph{proximally irreducible} extensions between affine $G$-flows. Using this we provide a characterization of…

For two semi-simple algebras $A$ and $B$ over an arbitrary ground field $F$, we give a numerical criterion when $\Hom_F(A,B)$, the set of $F$-algebra homomorphisms between them, is non-empty. We also determine when the orbit set $B^\times…

Let $F_\infty=\mathbb{F}_q(\!(1/T)\!)$ be the completion of $\mathbb{F}_q(T)$ at $1/T$. We develop a theory of Fourier expansions for harmonic cochains on the edges of the Bruhat-Tits building of $\mathrm{PGL}_r(F_\infty)$, $r\geq 2$,…

This work is devoted to the investigation of the problem about inverse mapping systems expansions of ultrauniform spaces $X$ using polyhedra over non-Archimedean locally compact fields $\bf L$. Theorems about expansions of complete…

We study the connection between the dimension of certain spaces of harmonic functions on a group and its geometric and algebraic properties. Our main result shows that (for sufficiently "nice" random walk measures) a connected, compactly…

Given a pair of number fields with isomorphic rings of adeles, we construct bijections between objects associated to the pair. For instance we construct an isomorphism of Brauer groups that commutes with restriction. We additionally…

We show that the metric entropy of a $C^1$ diffeomorphism with a dominated splitting and the dominating bundle uniformly expanding is bounded from above by the integrated volume growth of the dominating (expanding) bundle plus the maximal…

The space of unit flows on a finite acyclic directed graph is a lattice polytope called the flow polytope of the graph. Given a bipartite graph $G$ with minimum degree at least two, we construct two associated acyclic directed graphs: the…

We construct and study fields F with the property that F has infinitely many extensions of some fixed degree, but E*/(E*)^n is finite for every finite extension E of F and every n>0.

We study in this article some Sobolev-type inequalities on polynomial volume growth Lie groups. We show in particular that improved Sobolev inequalities can be extended without the use of the Littlewood-Paley decomposition to this general…

Let $E$ be an algebraic extension of a global field $E_{0}$ with a nontrivial Brauer group Br$(E)$, and let $P(E)$ be the set of those prime numbers $p$, for which $E$ does not equal its maximal $p$-extension $E(p)$. This paper shows that…

Two extension problems are solved. First, the class of locally matricial algebras over an arbitrary field is closed under extensions. Second, the class of locally finite dimensional semisimple algebras over a fixed field is closed under…

We construct $p$-adic analogs of operator colligations and their characteristic functions. Consider a $p$-adic group $G=GL(\alpha+k\infty, Q_p)$, its subgroup $L=O(k\infty,Z_p)$, and the subgroup $K=O(\infty,Z_p)$ embedded to $L$…

In this note we record a comparison theorem on the B-model variation of semi-infinite Hodge structures. This result is considered a folklore theorem by experts in the field. We only take this opportunity to write it down. Our motivation is…

We consider a volume maximization program to construct hyperbolic structures on triangulated 3-manifolds, for which previous progress has lead to consider angle assignments which do not correspond to a hyperbolic metric on each simplex. We…
