We describe a finite presentation of $ \mathcal{T}_{g,r} $ for $g \geq 3$. % or $(g,r)=(2,0)$. Here $\mathcal{T}_{g,r} $ is the universal central extension of the mapping class group of the surface of genus $g$ with $r$-boundaries. We also…

In this paper, we study growth rate of product of sets in the Heisenberg group over finite fields and the complex numbers. More precisely, we will give improvements and extensions of recent results due to Hegyv\'{a}ri and Hennecart (2018).

Furstenberg and Glasner proved that for an arbitrary k in N, any piecewise syndetic set contains k term arithmetic progression and such collection is also piecewise syndetic in Z. They used algebraic structure of beta N. The above result…

We present a number of results relating partial Cauchy-Littlewood sums, integrals over the compact classical groups, and increasing subsequences of permutations. These include: integral formulae for the distribution of the longest…

In this paper, we study geodesic growth of numbered graph products; these are a generalization of right-angled Coxeter groups, defined as graph products of finite cyclic groups. We first define a graph-theoretic condition called…

We study an analogue of the conjugacy growth function in finitely generated groups: the automorphic growth function. This counts the number of automorphic orbits that intersect the ball of radius $n$ in the group. We show that this is not a…

We show that the number of numerical semigroups with multiplicity three, four or five and fixed genus is increasing as a function in the genus. To this end we use the Kunz polytope for these multiplicities. Counting numerical semigroups…

In this paper we extend some set theoretic concepts of numerical semigroups for arbitrary sub-semigroups of natural numbers. Then we characterized gapsets which leads to a more efficient computational approach towards numerical semigroups…

We show that doubling at some large scale in a Cayley graph implies uniform doubling at all subsequent scales. The proof is based on the structure theorem for approximate subgroups proved by Green, Tao and the first author. We also give a…

We show that every non-decreasing function $f\colon \mathbb N\to \mathbb N$ bounded from above by $a^n$ for some $a\ge 1$ can be realized (up to a natural equivalence) as the conjugacy growth function of a finitely generated group. We also…

We contruct a one-to-one correspondence between a subset of numerical semigroups with genus $g$ and $\gamma$ even gaps and the integer points of a rational polytope. In particular, we give an overview to apply this correspondence to try to…
