We consider the generalized dual transformation for elliptic/hyperelliptic $\wp$ functions up to genus three. For the genus one case, from the algebraic addition formula, we deduce that the Weierstrass $\wp$ function has the SO(2,1) $\cong$…

Let $\omega=(-1+\sqrt{-3})/2$. For any lattice $P\subseteq \mathbb{Z}^n$, $\mathcal{P}=P+\omega P$ is a subgroup of $\mathcal{O}_K^n$, where $\mathcal{O}_K=\mathbb{Z}[\omega]\subseteq \mathbb{C}$. As $\mathbb{C}$ is naturally isomorphic to…

In this paper we give equational presentations of the varieties of {\em integral bounded residuated lattice-ordered commutative monoids} (bounded residuated lattices for short) satisfying the \emph{General Apple Property} (GAP), that is,…

Our main result is that the simple Lie group $G=Sp(n,1)$ acts properly isometrically on $L^p(G)$ if $p>4n+2$. To prove this, we introduce property $({\BP}_0^V)$, for $V$ be a Banach space: a locally compact group $G$ has property…

We show that finite quasisimple groups of Lie type in characteristic $p$ with an irreducible representation of prime degree $r$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ have orders bounded above by a function of $r$, independent of $p$. We…

We prove that for each positive integer $N$ the set of smooth, zero degree maps $\psi\colon\mathbb{S}^2\to \mathbb{S}^2$ which have the following three properties: (1) there is a unique minimizing harmonic map $u\colon \mathbb{B}^3\to…

In this paper, we show the relation between $sp(4,\mathbb{R})$, the Lie algebra of the symplectic group, and the elements of $Sp(4,\mathbb{R})$. We use this result to obtain some special cases of symplectic matrices relevant to the study of…

We study $2\times 2$ matrices over noncommutative rings with anti-involution, with a special focus on the symplectic group $\mathrm{Sp}_2(\mathcal{A},\sigma)$. We define traces and determinants of such matrices and use them to prove a…

We complete the quasi-isometric classification of irreducible lattices in semisimple Lie groups over nondiscrete locally compact fields of characteristic zero by showing that any quasi-isometry of a rank one S-arithmetic lattice in a…

We illustrate the Lie theoretic capabilities of the computational algebra system GAP4 by reporting on results on nilpotent orbits of simple Lie algebras that have been obtained using computations in that system. Concerning reachable…

The following two results are shown. 1) Let $G$ be the $k$-rational points of a simple algebraic group over a local field $k$ and let $H$ be a lattice in $G.$ Then the regular representation of $G$ on $L^2(G/H)$ has a spectral gap (that is,…

In this paper we consider Property (FA) for lattices in SU(2,1). First, we prove that SU(2,1;O_3) has Property (FA). We then prove that the arithmetic lattices in SU(2,1) of second type arising from congruence subgroups studied by…

We introduce a wide class of countable groups, called properly proximal, which contains all non-amenable bi-exact groups, all non-elementary convergence groups, and all lattices in non-compact semi-simple Lie groups, but excludes all inner…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group with an open subgroup $H$ with the Kunze-Stein property, and let $\pi$ be a unitary representation of $H$. We show that the representation $\widetilde{\pi}$ of $G$ induced from $\pi$ is an…

Approximate lattices are aperiodic generalisations of lattices of locally compact groups that were first studied in seminal work of Yves Meyer. They are defined as those uniformly discrete approximate subgroups (symmetric subsets stable…

We investigate weakly $G$-slim complexes, a more flexible variant of Helfer and Wise's slim complexes, which can be defined on any regular $G$-covering. We prove that if a $2$-complex $X$ associated to a group presentation is weakly…

We study Lipschitz-free spaces over compact and uniformly discrete metric spaces enjoying certain high regularity properties - having group structure with left-invariant metric. Using methods of harmonic analysis we show that, given a…

In this paper we prove a sufficient condition for the existence of matchings in arbitrary groups and its linear analogue, which lead to some generalizations of the existing results in the theory of matchings in groups and central extensions…
