We prove rigidity facts for groups acting on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds by preserving unparameterized geodesics.

In this article we give an self contained existence proof for J. Conway's sporadic simple group Co_1 [4] using the second author's algorithm [14] constructing finite simple groups from irreducible subgroups of GL_n(2). Here n = 11 and the…

Let $\mathcal{M}=CM(D_n,X,p)$ be a regular Cayley map on the dihedral group $D_n$ of order $2n, n \ge 2,$ and let $\pi$ be the power function associated with $\mathcal{M}$. In this paper it is shown that the kernel Ker$(\pi)$ of the power…

We characterize those generating functions k that produce weighted Hardy spaces of the unit disk D supporting nontrivial Hermitian weighted composition operators. Our characterization shows that the spaces associated with the "classical…

We describe the ring structure of the rational cohomology of the Torelli groups of the manifolds $\#^g S^n \times S^n$ in a stable range, for $2n \geq 6$. Some of our results are also valid for $2n=2$, where they are closely related to…

We prove the existence of a quantum isometry groups for new classes of metric spaces: (i) geodesic metrics for compact connected Riemannian manifolds (possibly with boundary) and (ii) metric spaces admitting a uniformly distributed…

We study HKT structures on nilpotent Lie groups and on associated nilmanifolds. We exhibit three weak HKT structures on $\R^8$ which are homogeneous with respect to extensions of Heisenberg type Lie groups. The corresponding hypercomplex…

We prove that the groupoid of transformations of rigid structures on surfaces has a finite presentation as a 2-groupoid establishing a result first conjectured by G.Moore and N.Seiberg. An alternative proof was given by B.Bakalov and…

Let $E \subset \mathbb{C}$ be a Borel set such that $0<\mathcal{H}^1(E)<\infty$. David and L\'eger proved that the Cauchy kernel $1/z$ (and even its coordinate parts $\textrm{Re}\, z/|z|^2$ and $\textrm{Im}\, z/|z|^2$, $z\in…

Let $E$ be a subset of the projective line over a commutative field $\mathbb{K}$. When $\mathbb{K}$ has infinite cardinality, it is well known that if $E$ contains at most three elements, then the group of linear fractional transformations…

The aim of this article is to prove that the kernel of the map from the pure braid group $PB_{n},n\ge 4$ to the group $G_{n}^{3}$ consists of full twist braids and their exponents. The proof consists of two parts. The first part which deals…

Based on [1], we study the complexity of horizontality in each twistor space $\hat{E}_{\varepsilon}$ associated with an oriented vector bundle $E$ of rank $4$ with a positive-definite metric over the $2$-torus $T^2$, and obtain…

We prove a structure theorem for periodic locally soluble groups satisfying a chain condition on intersections of relatively uniformly definable subgroups using results from the theory of stable groups. The result in particular shows that…

Different group structures which underline the integrable systems are considered. In some cases, the quantization of the integrable system can be provided with substituting groups by their quantum counterparts. However, some other group…

We obtain heat kernel estimates for a class of fourth order non-uniformly elliptic operators in two dimensions. Contrary to existing results, the operators considered have symbols that are not strongly convex. This rises certain…

We prove several rigidity properties for random quotients of mapping class groups of surfaces, namely whose kernel is normally generated by the n-th steps of finitely many independent random walks. Firstly, we generalise a celebrated…

Flag kernels are tempered distributions which generalize these of Calderon-Zygmund type. For any homogeneous group $\mathbb{G}$ the class of operators which acts on $L^{2}(\mathbb{G})$ by convolution with a flag kernel is closed under…

We extend approximate next-to-next-to-leading order results for top-pair production to include the semi-leptonic decays of top quarks in the narrow-width approximation. The new hard-scattering kernels are implemented in a fully differential…

We study the uniformly recurrent subgroups of groups acting by homeomorphisms on a topological space. We prove a general result relating uniformly recurrent subgroups to rigid stabilizers of the action, and deduce a $C^*$-simplicity…

In a previous work [11], the author considered a representation of the braid group \rho: B_n\to GL_m(\Bbb Z[q^{\pm 1},t^{\pm 1}]) (m=n(n-1)/2), and proved it to be faithful for n=4. Bigelow [3] then proved the same representation to be…
