For each integer $n\ge 1$, denote by $T_{n}$ the map $x\mapsto nx\mod 1$ from the circle group $\mathbb{T} = \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ into itself. Let $p,q\ge 2$ be two multiplicatively independent integers. Using Baire Category arguments, we…

We generalize a result of Sury and prove that uniform discreteness of cocompact lattices in higher rank semisimple Lie groups (first conjectured by Margulis) is equivalent to a weak form of Lehmer's conjecture. We include a short survey of…

The Ghahramani-Lau conjecture is established; in other words, the measure algebra of every locally compact group is strongly Arens irregular. To this end, we introduce and study certain new classes of measures (called approximately…

Let $\mu$ be a Borel probability measure on $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb R)$ with a finite exponential moment, and assume that the subgroup $\Gamma_{\mu}$ generated by the support of $\mu$ is Zariski dense. Let $\nu$ be the unique…

We show that the Riemann hypothesis is true if and only if the measure $$\mu=-\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{\Lambda(n)}{\sqrt{n}}(\delta_{\log n}+\delta_{-\log n})+2\cosh(x/2)\,dx$$ is a tempered distribution. In this case it is the Fourier…

In our paper we extend some results of the theory of Fourier quasicrystals on the real line to a horizontal strip of finite width. For measures in a strip we use a natural generalization of the usual Fourier transform for measures on the…

Based on the properties of distributions and measures with discrete support, we investigate temperate almost periodic distributions on the Euclidean space and connection with their Fourier transforms. We also study relations between the…

We give a simple proof of the fact that there exist measures on the real line of discrete support, whose Fourier Transform is also a measure of discrete support, yet this Fourier pair cannot be constructed by repeatedly applying the Poisson…

Let $f$ be an entire almost periodic function with zeros in a horizontal strip of finite width; for example, any exponential polynomial with purely imaginary exponents is such a function. Let $\mu$ be the measure on the set of zeros of $f$…

We study the "Fourier symmetry" of measures and distributions on the circle, in relation with the size of their supports. The main results of this paper are: (1) A one-side extension of Frostman's theorem, which connects the rate of decay…

We prove many new cases of Zimmer's conjecture for actions by lattices in non-$\mathbb{R}$-split semisimple Lie groups $G$. By prior arguments, Zimmer's conjecture reduces to studying certain probability measures invariant under a minimal…

In 2002, it was conjectured that a free divisor satisfying the so-called Logarithmic Comparison Theorem (LCT) must be strongly Euler-homogeneous. Today, it is known to be true only in ambient dimension less or equal than three or assuming…

Approximate lattices of Euclidean spaces, also known as Meyer sets, are aperiodic subsets with fascinating properties. In general, approximate lattices are defined as approximate subgroups of locally compact groups that are discrete and…

Braverman and Kazhdan proposed a conjecture, later refined by Ng\^o and broadened to the framework of spherical varieties by Sakellaridis, that asserts that affine spherical varieties admit Schwartz spaces, Fourier transforms, and Poisson…

Let $S(z)$ be an absolutely convergent Dirichlet series with a bounded spectrum and only real zeros $a_n$, let $\mu$ be the sum of unit masses at points $a_n$. It is proven that the Fourier transform $\hat\mu$ in the sense of distributions…

We consider measures supported on sets of irrational numbers possessing many consecutive partial quotients satisfying a condition based on the previous partial quotients. We show that under mild assumptions, such sets will always support…

Quaternionic modular forms on $\mathsf{G}_2$ carry a surprisingly rich arithmetic structure. For example, they have a theory of Fourier expansions where the Fourier coefficients are indexed by totally real cubic rings. For quaternionic…

Using the notion of higher-order Fourier dimension introduced in \cite{M2} (which was a sort of psuedorandomness condition stemming from the Gowers norms of Additive Combinatorics), we prove a maximal theorem and corresponding…

Caffarelli's contraction theorem states that probability measures with uniformly logconcave densities on R d can be realized as the image of a standard Gaussian measure by a globally Lipschitz transport map. We discuss some counterexamples…

In this note, we generalise a Bourgain's construction of finitely-supported symmetric measures whose Furstenberg measure has a smooth density from the case of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ to that of a general simple Lie group. The proof is…
