Let $\phi \in \mbox{Out}(F_n)$ be a free group outer automorphism that can be represented by an expanding, irreducible train-track map. The automorphism $\phi$ determines a free-by-cyclic group $\Gamma=F_n \rtimes_\phi \mathbb Z,$ and a…

Isolated, steady-state galaxies correspond to equilibrium solutions of the Poisson--Vlasov system. We show that (i) all galaxies with a distribution function depending on energy alone must be spherically symmetric and (ii) all axisymmetric…

For a random variable $X$, we are interested in the blind extraction of its finest mutual independence pattern $\mu ( X )$. We introduce a specific kind of independence that we call dichotomic. If $\Delta ( X )$ stands for the set of all…

It is shown how to model any automorphism of a totally disconnected, locally compact group by a symbolic dynamical system. The model is an inverse limit of a product of a full-shift, on a finite number of symbols, with one of two types of…

For a field k$with an automorphism \sigma and a derivation \delta, we introduce the notion of liouvillian solutions of linear difference-differential systems {\sigma(Y) = AY, \delta(Y) = BY} over k and characterize the existence of…

Sums of independent random variables form the basis of many fundamental theorems in probability theory and statistics, and therefore, are well understood. The related problem of characterizing products of independent random variables seems…

It has been suggested that the distribution of the suitably normalized number of zeros of Laplacian eigenfunctions contains information about the geometry of the underlying domain. We study this distribution (more precisely, the…

Consider a $N\times n$ matrix $\Sigma_n=\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}R_n^{1/2}X_n$, where $R_n$ is a nonnegative definite Hermitian matrix and $X_n$ is a random matrix with i.i.d. real or complex standardized entries. The fluctuations of the linear…

We show that if one selects uniformly independently and identically distributed matrices $A_1, \ldots, A_s \in \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ from a ball of large radius $X$ then with probability at least $1 - X^{-1 + o(1)}$ the matrices $A_1,…

Let $\{x_{\alpha}\}_{\alpha \in \mathbb{Z}}$ and $\{y_{\alpha}\}_{\alpha \in \mathbb{Z}}$ be two independent collections of zero mean, unit variance random variables with uniformly bounded moments of all orders. Consider a nonsymmetric…

Let $X$ be a hyperk\"ahler variety, and assume that $X$ admits a non-symplectic automorphism $\sigma$ of order $k>{1\over 2}\dim X$. Bloch's conjecture predicts that the quotient $X/<\sigma>$ should have trivial Chow group of $0$-cycles. We…

Let X be a locally compact Abelian group. We consider linear forms of independent random variables with values in X. In doing so, one of the coefficients of the linear forms is a random variable with a Bernoulli distribution. For some…

In a previous article, analytic 1-submanifolds had been classified w.r.t. their symmetry under a given regular and separately analytic Lie group action on an analytic manifold. It was shown that such an analytic 1-submanifold is either free…

If $G$ is a free product of finite groups, let $\Sigma Aut_1(G)$ denote all (necessarily symmetric) automorphisms of $G$ that do not permute factors in the free product. We show that a McCullough-Miller [D. McCullough and A. Miller, {\em…

Suppose that A_1,\dots, A_N are independent random matrices whose atoms are iid copies of a random variable \xi of mean zero and variance one. It is known from the works of Newman et. al. in the late 80s that when \xi is gaussian then…

The {\em independence ratio} of a graph $G$ is defined by \[ \iota(G) := \sup_{X \subset V(G)} \frac{|X|}{\alpha(X)},\] where $\alpha(X)$ is the independence number of the subgraph of $G$ induced by $X$. The independence ratio is a…

Let $S=\{p_1, \dots, p_r,\infty\}$ for prime integers $p_1, \dots, p_r.$ Let $X$ be an $S$-adic compact nilmanifold, equipped with the unique translation invariant probability measure $\mu.$ We characterize the countable groups $\Gamma$ of…

The behavior of a family of dissipative dynamical systems representing transformations of two-dimensional torus is studied on a discrete lattice and compared with that of conservative hyperbolic automorphisms of the torus. Applying…

It is well known that the Tchebotarev density theorem implies that an irreducible $\ell$-adic representation $\rho$ of the absolute Galois group of a number field $K$ is determined (up to isomorphism) by the characteristic polynomials of…

Let a countable amenable group G acts freely and ergodically on a Lebesgue space (X,mu), preserving the measure mu. If T is an automorphism of the equivalence relation defined by G then T can be extended to an automorphism alpha_T of the…
