In the hyperalgebra of the $r$-th Frobenius kernel of a universal Chevalley group over a field of characteristic $p>0$, we study some subsets and the subalgebras generated by them and give some results. We are particularly interested in the…
In the framework of algebraic supergeometry, we give a construction of the scheme-theoretic supergeometric analogue of Chevalley groups, namely affine algebraic supergroups associated to simple Lie superalgebras of classical type. In…
Let $\pi$ be a cuspidal automorphic representation of a general linear group over the rational numbers. We establish a subconvex bound for the standard $L$-function of $\pi$ in the $t$-aspect. More generally, we address the spectral aspect…
This article examines lower bounds for the representation growth of finitely generated (particularly profinite and pro-p) groups. It also considers the related question of understanding the maximal multiplicities of character degrees in…
Given a finitely generated group $G$ that is relatively finitely presented with respect to a collection of peripheral subgroups, we prove that every infinite subgroup $H$ of $G$ that is bounded in the relative Cayley graph of $G$ is…
The height gap theorem states that the finite subsets $F$ of matrices generating non-virtually solvable groups have normalized height $\widehat{h}(F)$ bounded below by a constant. It was first proved by Breuillard and another proof was…
Given an abstract group $G$, we study the function $ab_n(G) := \sup_{|G:H| \leq n} |H/[H,H]|$. If $G$ has no abelian composition factors, then $ab_n(G)$ is bounded by a polynomial: as a consequence, we find a sharp upper bound for the…
If $g\in G$ is a non-trivial element in a residually finite group, then there exists by definition a finite group $Q$ and a homomorphism $\varphi: G \to Q$ such that $\varphi(g) \neq e$. The residual finiteness growth $\text{RF}_G$ of a…
We give sharp bounds in Breuillard, Green and Tao's finitary version of Gromov's theorem on groups with polynomial growth. Precisely, we show that for every non-negative integer d there exists $c=c(d)>0$ such that if $G$ is a group with…
Let $G$ be a semisimple linear algebraic group over a field $k$ and let $G^+(k)$ be the subgroup generated by the subgroups $R_u(Q)(k)$, where $Q$ ranges over all the minimal $k$-parabolic subgroups $Q$ of $G$. We prove that if $G^+(k)$ is…
This paper is dedicated to a problem raised by Jacquet Tits in 1956: the Weyl group of a Chevalley group should find an interpretation as a group over what is nowadays called $\mathbb{F}_1$, \emph{the field with one element}. Based on Part…
Given a finitely generated residually finite group $G$, the residual finiteness growth $\text{RF}_G: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ bounds the size of a finite group $Q$ needed to detect an element of norm at most $r$. More specifically, if…
Let $K$ be a number field with a finite set $S$ of primes. We study the cohomology of $\mathbb{F}_p[G_{K,S}]$-modules $A$, in particular the Shafarevich groups $\Sha^i_S(K,A)$ for $i=1,2$ for tame sets $S$, i.e., for sets $S$ that contain…
For a residually finite group $G$, its normal subgroups $G\supset G_1\supset G_2\cdots$ with $\cap_{n\in\mathbb N}G_n=\{e\}$ and for a growth function $\gamma$ we construct a unitary representation $\pi_\gamma$ of $G$. For the minimal…
We show that doubling at some large scale in a Cayley graph implies uniform doubling at all subsequent scales. The proof is based on the structure theorem for approximate subgroups proved by Green, Tao and the first author. We also give a…
A group $G$ is called root graded if it has a family of subgroups $G_\alpha$ indexed by roots from a root system $\Phi$ satisfying natural conditions similar to Chevalley groups over commutative unital rings. For any such group there is a…
In the present paper we prove a weak form of sandwich classification for the overgroups of the subsystem subgroup $E(\Delta,R)$ of the Chevalley group $G(\Phi,R)$ where $\Phi$ is a simply laced root sysetem and $\Delta$ is its sufficiently…
We study the growth rate of the number of maximal arithmetic subgroups of bounded covolumes in a semi-simple Lie group using an extension of the method due to Borel and Prasad.
We define and study root graded groups, that is, groups graded by finite root systems. This notion generalises several existing concepts in the literature, including in particular Jacques Tits' notion of RGD-systems. The most prominent…
We prove that if L is a finite simple group of Lie type and A a symmetric set of generators of L, then A grows i.e |AAA| > |A|^{1+epsilon} where epsilon depends only on the Lie rank of L, or AAA=L. This implies that for a family of simple…
