We prove an analogue of Beurling's theorem on the H-type groups of certain dimensions after establishing the Gutzmer's formula for the H-type groups. We also obtain some other versions of the theorem using the modified Radon transform.
Answering a question posed by Bergelson and Leibman in [6], we establish a nilpotent version of the polynomial Hales-Jewett theorem that contains the main theorem in [6] as a special case. Important to the formulation and the proof of our…
It is known that an abelian group $A$ and a $2$-cocycle $c:A \times A \to C$ yield a group ${\mathscr{H}}(A,C,c)$ which we call a Heisenberg group. This group, a central extension of $A$, is the archetype of a class~$2$ nilpotent group. In…
In this paper, we establish Liouville theorems for the following system of elliptic differential inequalities $$ \Delta_{\mathbb H}u^{m_1}+|\eta|_{\mathbb H}^{\gamma_1}|v|^p\leq0,$$ $$ \Delta_{\mathbb H}v^{m_2}+|\eta|_{\mathbb…
This short note establishes an abstract Hales--Jewett theorem for semigroups equipped with a finite family of retractions. The proof relies on the interplay between retractions and tensor products of ultrafilters.
We consider finitely generated group endowed with a word metric. The group acts on itself by isometries, which induces an action on its horofunction boundary. The conjecture is that nilpotent groups act trivially on their reduced boundary.…
We prove a Filling Theorem for the Heisenberg Groups $H^{2n+1}$: For a given $k$-cycle $a$ we construct a $(k+1)$-chain $b$ (the filling) with boundary $\partial b=a$ and controlled volume. For this filling $b$ we prove a uniform bound on…
This is the second paper in the series of three. We study restricted Lie algebras of polycyclic groups and obtain conditions for existence of $p$-series with associated restricted Lie algebra abelian or free abelian with rank equal to the…
The aim of this paper is to generalize and improve two of the main model-theoretic results of "Stable group theory and approximate subgroups" by E. Hrushovski to the context of piecewise hyperdefinable sets. The first one is the existence…
We generalize a result on the Heisenberg Lie algebra that gives restrictions to possible Lie bialgebra cobrackets on 2-step nilpotent algebras with some additional properties. For the class of 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras coming from…
We prove several results about the best constants in the Hausdorff-Young inequality for noncommutative groups. In particular, we establish a sharp local central version for compact Lie groups, and extend known results for the Heisenberg…
In this short note, we prove a general nilpotence theorem for a rational rigid 2-ring all of whose objects satisfy a certain ``moderate growth condition'' inspired from the theory of tensor categories. This applies in particular to the…
We prove a strengthening of the Grothendieck-Lefschetz hyperplane theorem for local Picard groups conjectured by Koll\'ar. Our approach, which relies on acyclicity results for absolute integral closures, also leads to a restriction theorem…
We show that if the lower central series of the fundamental group of a closed oriented $3$-manifold stabilizes then the maximal nilpotent quotient is a cyclic group, a quaternion $2$-group cross an odd order cyclic group, or a Heisenberg…
We develop the Pl\"unnecke-Ruzsa and Balog-Szemer\'edi-Gowers theory of sum set estimates in the non-commutative setting, with discrete, continuous, and metric entropy formulations of these estimates. We also develop a Freiman-type inverse…
In this paper, we study some basic geometric properties of pseudohermitian submanifolds of the Heisenberg groups. In particular, we obtain the uniqueness and existence theorems, and some rigidity theorems.
The purpose of this note is to compare the properties of the symbolic pseudo-differential calculus on the Heisenberg and on the Engel groups; nilpotent Lie groups of 2-step and 3-step, respectively. Here we provide a preliminary analysis of…
We give an affirmative answer to the question whether there exist Lie algebras for suitable closed subgroups of the unitary group $U(\mathcal{H})$ in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ with $U(\mathcal{H})$ equipped with the strong operator…
We prove that the action of a reductive complex Lie group on a K\"ahler manifold can be linearized in the neighbourhood of a fixed point, provided that the restriction of the action to some compact real form of the group is Hamiltonian with…
In the context of a connected, simply connected, nilpotent Lie group, whose representations are square-integrable modulo the center, we find characterization results of extra-invariant spaces under the left translations associated with the…
