Using the quaternionic formalism for the description of the group of isometries of hyperbolic $5$-space we consider arithmetically defined $5$-dimensional hyperbolic manifolds which are non-compact but of finite volume. They arise from…
We give some characterizations of Lipschitz type spaces of slice regular functions in the unit ball of the skew field of quaternions with prescribed modulus of continuity.
We study the commutator subgroup of integral orthogonal groups belonging to indefinite quadratic forms. We show that the index of this commutator is 2 for many groups that occur in the construction of moduli spaces in algebraic geometry, in…
We study fundamental groups of toroidal compactifications of non compact ball quotients and show that the Shafarevich conjecture on holomorphic convexity for these complex projective manifolds is satisfied in dimension 2 provided the…
We continue the program, presented in previous Symposia, of discretizing physical models. In particular we calculate the integral Lorentz transformations with the help of discrete reflection groups, and use them for the covariance of…
Quaternionic projective plane $\mathbb{H} P^2$ is the next simplest conjugacy class of the symplectic group $SP(6)$ with pseudo-Levi stabilizer subgroup after the sphere $\mathbb{S}^4\simeq \mathbb{H} P^1$. Its quantization gives rise to a…
Using elementary graded automorphisms of polytopal algebras (essentially the coordinate rings of projective toric varieties) polyhedral versions of the group of elementary matrices and the Steinberg and Milnor groups are defined. They…
We establish two results concerning the Quantum Limits (QLs) of some sub-Laplacians. First, under a commutativity assumption on the vector fields involved in the definition of the sub- Laplacian, we prove that it is possible to split any QL…
In this article, we prove a version of Martin and Skora's conjecture that convergence groups on the $2$-sphere are covered by Kleinian groups. Given a relatively hyperbolic group pair $(G,\mathcal{P})$ with planar boundary and no Sierpinski…
We give formulas for the Whitehead groups and the rational $K$-theory groups of the (integer group ring of the) Hilbert modular group in terms of its maximal finite subgroups.
We compute the group homology, the topological K-theory of the reduced C^*-algebra, the algebraic K-theory and the algebraic L-theory of the group ring of the semi-direct product of the three-dimensional discrete Heisenberg group by Z/4.…
Let $p>2$ be a prime number. In this short note, we calculate explicitly the unitary dual and the matrix coefficients of the Heisenberg group over the $p$-adic integers. As an application, we consider directional Vladimirov-Taibleson…
We investigate for which linear-algebraic groups (over the complex numbers or any local field) there exists subgroups which are dense in the Zariski topology, but discrete in the Hausdorff topology. For instance, such subgroups exist for…
Apollonian circle packings arise by repeatedly filling the interstices between mutually tangent circles with further tangent circles. In Euclidean space it is possible for every circle in such a packing to have integer radius of curvature,…
We derive an explicit isomorphism between the Hilbert modular group and certain congruence subgroups on the one hand and particular subgroups of the special orthogonal group $SO(2, 2)$ on the other hand. The proof is based on an application…
We study subgroups of ${\rm PU}(2,1)$ generated by two non-commuting unipotent maps $A$ and $B$ whose product $AB$ is also unipotent. We call $\mathcal{U}$ the set of conjugacy classes of such groups. We provide a set of coordinates on…
W. Luo and P. Sarnak have proved the quantum unique ergodicity property for Eisenstein series on $\rm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z}) \backslash H$. We extend their result to Eisenstein series on $\rm{PSL}(2,O) \backslash H^n$, where $O$ is the ring of…
In this article, we study the Schur mutiplier of the discrete as well as the finite Heisenberg groups and their t-variants. We describe the representation groups of these Heisenberg groups and through these give a construction of their…
Let $G$ be an algebraic group of classical type of rank $l$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p$. We list and determine the dimensions of all irreducible $KG$-modules $L$ with $\dim L < \binom{l+1}{4}$ if $G$ is of…
The article summarizes and consolidates investigations on hyperbolic complex numbers with respect to the Klein-Gordon equation for fermions and bosons. The hyperbolic complex numbers are applied in the sense that complex extensions of…
