Part of these notes was written as the author's 2013 master thesis. For proper flat schemes over a complete discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic, we construct an isomorphism of certain subgroups of the Picard group and the first…

In this article, we develop a generalization of finitary birepresentation theory applicable to Soergel bimodules for infinite Coxeter groups. We establish a reduction process for the classification of simple birepresentations of almost…

Two short seminal papers of Margulis used Kazhdan's property $(T)$ to give, on the one hand, explicit constructions of expander graphs, and to prove, on the other hand, the uniqueness of some invariant means on compact simple Lie groups.…

Following the development of weighted asymptotic approximation properties of matrices, we introduce the analogous uniform approximation properties (that is, study the improvability of Dirichlet's Theorem). An added feature is the use of…

Gallagher's theorem is a sharpening and extension of the Littlewood conjecture that holds for almost all tuples of real numbers. We provide a fibre refinement, solving a problem posed by Beresnevich, Haynes and Velani in 2015. Hitherto,…

We classify localising subcategories of the stable module category of a finite group that are closed under tensor product with simple (or, equivalently all) modules. One application is a proof of the telescope conjecture in this context.…

We show how to represent a class of expressions involving discrete sums over partitions as matrix models. We apply this technique to the partition functions of 2* theories, i.e. Seiberg-Witten theories with the massive hypermultiplet in the…

In 2003 COHN and UMANS introduced a group-theoretic approach to fast matrix multiplication. This involves finding large subsets S, T and U of a group G satisfying the Triple Product Property (TPP) as a means to bound the exponent $\omega$…

Different notions of amenability on hypergroups and their relations are studied. Developing Leptin's theorem for discrete hypergroups, we characterize the existence of a bounded approximate identity for hypergroup Fourier algebras. We study…

This monograph starts with an upper triangular matrix with integer entries and 1's on the diagonal. It develops from this a spectrum of structures, which appear in different contexts, in algebraic geometry, representation theory and the…

The aim of this book is to show that the use of f-analytic families of finite type cycles (cycles having finitely many irreducible components, but not compact in general) in a given complex space may be useful in complex geometry, despite…

In this article, I provide significant mathematical evidence in support of the existence of short-time approximations of any polynomial order for the computation of density matrices of physical systems described by arbitrarily smooth and…

We start with a small paradigm shift about group representations, namely the observation that restriction to a subgroup can be understood as an extension-of-scalars. We deduce that, given a group $G$, the derived and the stable categories…

We prove that the lamplighter group admits an injective Lipschitz map to any finitely generated metabelian group which is not virtually nilpotent. This implies that finitely generated metabelian groups satisfy the ``analytically…

In the context of spin foam models for quantum gravity, group field theories are a useful tool allowing on the one hand a non-perturbative formulation of the partition function and on the other hand admitting an interpretation as…

In these notes, we begin by recalling aspects of the classical theory of metric Diophantine approximation; such as theorems of Khintchine, Jarn\'{\i}k, Duffin-Schaeffer and Gallagher. We then describe recent strengthening of various…

I attempt to give a pedagogical introduction to the matrix model of M-theory as developed by Banks, Fischler, Shenker and Susskind (BFSS). In the first lecture, I introduce and review the relevant aspects of D-branes with the emergence of…

Properties of a given symmetry group G are very important in investigation of a physical system invariant under its action. In the case of finite spin systems (magnetic rings, some planar macromolecules) the symmetry group is isomorphic…

In this paper we engage in a general study of the asymptotic expansion of the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants of mapping tori of surface mapping class group elements. We use the geometric construction of the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev…

By an {\em isotropy group} of a tensor $t\in V_1 \otimes V_2\otimes V_3=\widetilde V$ we mean the group of all invertible linear transformations of $\widetilde V$ that leave $t$ invariant and are compatible (in an obvious sense) with the…
