Assume that $G$ is a virtually torsion-free solvable group of finite rank and $A$ a $\mathbb ZG$-module whose underlying abelian group is torsion-free and has finite rank. We stipulate a condition on $A$ that ensures that $H^n(G,A)$ and…
The present lack of a stable method to compare persistent homology groups with torsion is a relevant problem in current research about Persistent Homology and its applications in Pattern Recognition. In this paper we introduce a…
We discuss some consequences of the fact that symmetry groups appearing in compactified (super-)gravity may be non-simply connected. The possibility to add fermions to a theory results in a simple criterion to decide whether a 3-dimensional…
For a finitely generated group, there are two recent generalizations of the notion of a quasiconvex subgroup of a word-hyperbolic group, namely a stable subgroup and a Morse or strongly quasiconvex subgroup. Durham and Taylor defined…
We construct a wealth of groups that are finitely presented, Frobenius stable, have property (T), but are very far from having property (T$_2$). Our method also shows that property (T$_2$) does not pass to quotients.
Given a family of groups admitting a braided monoidal structure (satisfying mild assumptions) we construct a family of spaces on which the groups act and whose connectivity yields, via a classical argument of Quillen, homological stability…
The orthogonal groups are a series of simple Lie groups associated to symmetric bilinear forms. There is no analogous series associated to symmetric trilinear forms. We introduce an infinite dimensional group-like object that can be viewed…
An arbitrary homomorphism between groups is nonincreasing for stable commutator length, and there are infinitely many (injective) homomorphisms between free groups which strictly decrease the stable commutator length of some elements.…
We prove vanishing results for Lie groups and algebraic groups (over any local field) in bounded cohomology. The main result is a vanishing below twice the rank for semi-simple groups. Related rigidity results are established for…
Church-Farb-Putman formulated stability and vanishing conjectures for the high-dimensional cohomology of $\operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$, surface mapping class groups and automorphism groups of free groups. This is a survey on the current…
Given two finite-dimensional representations $\rho$ and $\sigma$ of $\mathsf{SU}(n)$, when is there $n \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $\rho^{\otimes n}$ is isomorphic to a subrepresentation of $\sigma^{\otimes n}$? When is there a third…
This paper contains a thorough investigation of invariant distributions supported on limit sets of discrete groups acting convex cocompactly on symmetric spaces of negative curvature. It can be considered as a continuation of…
We compute the first and second cohomology groups with coefficients in the adjoint module of frobeniusian model algebras whose parameters move in a dense open subset of $\mathbb{C}^{p-1}$, and obtain upper bounds for the dimension of…
We study representation stability in the sense of Church, Ellenberg, and Farb \cite{FI-module} through the lens of symmetric function theory and the different symmetric function bases. We show that a sequence, $(F_n)_n$, where $F_n$ is a…
We continue our study of bounded solutions of the semilinear parabolic equation $u_t=u_{xx}+f(u)$ on the real line, where $f$ is a locally Lipschitz function on $\mathbb{R}.$ Assuming that the initial value $u_0=u(\cdot,0)$ of the solution…
We establish an analog of a theorem of Stallings which asserts the homomorphisms between the universal nilpotent quotients induced by a homomorphism $G \to H$ of groups are isomorphisms provided a pair of homological conditions are…
This paper concerns with deformations of noncompact complex hyperbolic manifolds (with locally Bergman metric), varieties of discrete representations of their fundamental groups into $PU(n,1)$ and the problem of (quasiconformal) stability…
Let $X$ be a complex space of pure-dimension $n$. For a pseudoconvex relatively compact domain in $X$ with $\mathscr{C}^3$-smooth boundary and embedded in a domain of the complex number space, we prove that the $L^2$- and…
We establish Liouville type theorems for elliptic systems with various classes of non-linearities on $\mathbb{R}^N$. We show among other things, that a system has no semi-stable solution in any dimension, whenever the infimum of the…
Sofic groups generalise both residually finite and amenable groups, and the concept is central to many important results and conjectures in measured group theory. We introduce a topological notion of a sofic boundary attached to a given…
