We give a new obstruction to translation-like actions on nilpotent groups. Suppose we are given two finitely generated torsion free nilpotent groups with the same degree of polynomial growth, but non-isomorphic Carnot completions…
We study analogues of classical Hilbert transforms as fourier multipliers on free groups. We prove their complete boundedness on non commutative $L^p$ spaces associated with the free group von Neumann algebras for all $1<p<\infty$. This…
We prove the torsion freeness of the decomposable Orlik--Solomon algebra of a simple matroid on ground set $[n]$. In the class of hypersolvable \& non-supersolvable complex hyperplane arrangements, the torsion freeness, in a certain degree,…
We prove that in the graded commutative ring $K_{*}(\mathbb{S})$, all positive degree elements are multiplicatively nilpotent. The analogous statements also hold for $TC_{*}(\mathbb{S};\mathbb{Z}^{\wedge}_p)$ and $K_{*}(\mathbb{Z})$.
Using the concept of algebraically closed groups, we prove that there is a countable torsion free group with exactly two conjugacy classes.
Premet has conjectured that the nilpotent variety of any finite-dimensional restricted Lie algebra is an irreducible variety. In this paper, we prove this conjecture in the case of Hamiltonian Lie algebra. and show that its nilpotent…
We construct finitely generated simple torsion-free groups with strong homological control. Our main result is that every subset of $\mathbb{N} \cup \{\infty\}$, with some obvious exceptions, can be realized as the set of dimensions of…
We give an unexpectedly simple presentation of the maximal prolongation of a first-order differential calculus in terms of the bimodule map of a torsion-free bimodule connection. We then show that in the quantum homogeneous space case this…
Let $K$ be a field and let $\sigma$ be an automorphism and let $\delta$ be a $\sigma$-derivation of $K$. Then we show that the multiplicative group of nonzero elements of the division ring $D=K(x;\sigma,\delta)$ contains a free non-cyclic…
We prove two approximations of the open problem of whether the adjoint group of a non-nilpotent nil ring can be finitely generated: We show that the adjoint group of a non-nilpotent Jacobson radical cannot be boundedly generated, and on the…
For a set $X\subseteq \mathbb{N}$, we define the $X$-torsion of a group $G$ to be all elements $g\in G$ with $g^{n}=e$ for some $n\in X$. With $X$ recursively enumerable, we give two independent proofs (group-theoretic, and model-theoretic)…
We introduce a model of random f.g., torsion-free, $2$-step nilpotent groups (in short, $\tau_2$-groups). To do so, we show that these are precisely the groups that admit a presentation of the form $ \label{tau2pres_0}\langle A, C \mid…
Since the work of Jennings (1955), it is well-known that any finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group can be embedded into unitriangular integer matrices $UT_N(Z)$ for some $N$. In 2006, Nickel proposed an algorithm to calculate such…
Let $\g$ be simple Lie algebra. We give a conceptual proof for the fact that the nilpotent orbits of height 3 are spherical. It is shown that if the highest root of $\g$ is fundamental, then $\g$ has a specific nilpotent orbit of height 3.…
We construct uncountably many finitely generated, pairwise non-isomorphic torsion-free groups, all of which fall into the same quasi-isometry class. This is done by considering Schur covering groups and group cohomology, with the necessary…
In this paper we will show that finitely generated torsion-free 2-step nilpotent groups of Hirsch length at most 6 do not have the $R_{\infty}$-property, while there are examples of such groups of Hirsch length 7 that do have the…
We apply the filtered and graded methods developed in earlier works to find (noncommutative) free group algebras in division rings. If $L$ is a Lie algebra, we denote by $U(L)$ its universal enveloping algebra. P. M. Cohn constructed a…
Let $G$ be a group. The orbits of the natural action of $\Aut(G)$ on $G$ are called "automorphism orbits" of $G$, and the number of automorphism orbits of $G$ is denoted by $\omega(G)$. Let $G$ be a virtually nilpotent group such that…
We study multiplicity-free representations of Lie groups over a quasi-symmetric Siegel domain, with a focus on certain two-step nilpotent Lie groups. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the multiplicity-freeness property to…
We prove that the outer automorphism group $\mathrm{Out}(N)$ of an infinitely generated free nilpotent group $N$ of class two is complete.
