In the paper we consider the following conjecture: if a finite group $G$ possesses a solvable $\pi$-Hall subgroup $H$, then there exist elements $x,y,z,t\in G$ such that the identity $H\cap H^x\cap H^y\cap H^z\cap H^t=O_\pi(G)$ holds. The…
In response to questions by Kassabov, Nikolov and Shalev, we show that a given subset $A$ of a finite simple group $G$ is the image of some word map $w : G\times G\to G $ if and only if (i) $A$ contains the identity and (ii) $A$ is…
Let X be a compact topological space, and let D be a subset of X. Let Y be a Hausdorff topological space. Let f be a continuous map of the closure of D to Y such that f(D) is open. Let E be any connected subset of the complement (to Y) of…
We prove a global implicit function theorem. In particular we show that any Lipschitz map $f:\bR^n\times \bR^m\to\bR^n$ (with $n$-dim. image) can be precomposed with a bi-Lipschitz map $\bar{g}:\bR^n\times \bR^m\to \bR^n\times \bR^m$ such…
We show that any Carnot group contains a closed nowhere dense set which has measure zero but is not $\sigma$-porous with respect to the Carnot-Carath\'eodory (CC) distance. In the first Heisenberg group we observe that there exist sets…
We extend the proof of Reifenberg's Topological Disk Theorem to allow the case of sets with holes, and give sufficient conditions on a set $E$ for the existence of a bi-Lipschitz parameterization of $E$ by a $d$-dimensional plane or smooth…
We show that fiber-preserving quasisymmetric maps are biLipschitz. As an application, we show that quasisymmetric maps on Carnot groups with reducible first stratum are biLipschitz.
Let $F$ be a set-valued mapping which to each point $x$ of a metric space $({\mathcal M},\rho)$ assigns a convex closed set $F(x)\subset{\bf R}^2$. We present several constructive criteria for the existence of a Lipschitz selection of $F$,…
L\'evai and Pyber proposed the following as a conjecture: Let $G$ be a profinite group such that the set of solutions of the equation $x^n=1$ has positive Haar measure. Then $G$ has an open subgroup $H$ and an element $t$ such that all…
Given a Lipschitz map $f$ from a cube into a metric space, we find several equivalent conditions for $f$ to have a Lipschitz factorization through a metric tree. As an application we prove a recent conjecture of David and Schul. The…
We construct a bi-Lipschitz bijection from the Boolean cube to the Hamming ball of equal volume. More precisely, we show that for all even n there exists an explicit bijection f from the n-dimensional Boolean cube to the Hamming ball of…
Let $X$ and $Y$ be length metric spaces. Let $\mathcal H^n$ denote the $n$-dimensional Hausdorff measure. The Lipschitz-Volume Rigidity is a property that if there exists a 1-Lipschitz map $f\colon X\to Y$ and $0<\mathcal H^n(X)=\mathcal…
Suppose that $f$ is a $K$-quasiconformal self-mapping of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$, which satisfies the following: $(1)$ the biharmonic equation $\Delta(\Delta f)=g$ $(g\in \mathcal{C}(\overline{\mathbb{D}}))$, (2) the boundary condition…
Lipschitz and horizontal maps from an $n$-dimensional space into the $(2n+1)$-dimensional Heisenberg group $\H^n$ are abundant, while maps from higher-dimensional spaces are much more restricted. DeJarnette-Haj{\l}asz-Lukyanenko-Tyson…
This paper contributes to the generalization of Rademacher's differentiability result for Lipschitz functions when the domain is infinite dimensional and has nonabelian group structure. We introduce the notion of metric scalable groups…
(1) Every infinite, Abelian compact (Hausdorff) group K admits 2^|K|-many dense, non-Haar-measurable subgroups of cardinality |K|. When K is nonmetrizable, these may be chosen to be pseudocompact. (2) Every infinite Abelian group G admits a…
We give a constructive proof for the following new collar theorem: every locally collared closed set that is paracompact in a Hausdorff space is collared. This includes the important special case of locally collared closed sets in…
We give a construction under $CH$ of a non-metrizable compact Hausdorff space $K$ such that any uncountable semi-biorthogonal sequence in $C(K)$ must be of a very specific kind. The space $K$ has many nice properties, such as being…
We prove that if a simply connected nilpotent Lie group quasi-isometrically embeds into an $L^1$ space, then it is abelian. We reach this conclusion by proving that every Carnot group that biLipschitz embeds into $L^1$ is abelian. Our proof…
We construct planar bi-Sobolev mappings whose local volume distortion is bounded from below by a given function $f\in L^p$ with $p>1$, i.e. bi-Sobolev solutions for the prescribed Jacobian inequality in the plane for right-hand sides $f\in…
