Given a finite group $G$ and a set $A$ of generators, the diameter diam$(\Gamma(G,A))$ of the Cayley graph $\Gamma(G,A)$ is the smallest $\ell$ such that every element of $G$ can be expressed as a word of length at most $\ell$ in $A \cup…
We define strongly continuous max-additive and max-plus linear operator semigroups and study their main properties. We present some important examples of such semigroups coming from non-linear evolution equations.
The aim of this article is to obtain a better understanding and classification of strictly ergodic topological dynamical systems with discrete spectrum. To that end, we first determine when an isomorphic maximal equicontinuous factor map of…
We compute the virtual cohomological dimension (VCD) of the group of partially symmetric outer automorphisms of a free group. We use this to obtain new upper and lower bounds on the VCD of the outer automorphism group of a two-dimensional…
In this paper, we discuss 3-transposition groups. In particular, we find sizes of maximal symmetric subgroups of the groups, which are in Fischer list. In addition, we build faithful representations of symmetric groups in orthogonal,…
Measure-theoretic slow entropy is a more refined invariant than the classical measure-theoretic entropy to characterize the complexity of dynamical systems with subexponential growth rates of distinguishable orbit types. In this paper we…
A site-specific Gordian distance between two spatial embeddings of an abstract graph is the minimal number of crossing changes from one to another where each crossing change is performed between two previously specified abstract edges of…
An $\widetilde A_2$ group $\Gamma$ acts simply transitively on the vertices of an affine building $\triangle$. We study certain subgroups $\Gamma_0 \cong {\Bbb Z}^2$ which act on certain apartments of $\triangle$. If one of these subgroups…
We introduce a new model of random Artin groups. The two variables we consider are the rank of the Artin groups and the set of permitted coefficients of their defining graphs. The heart of our model is to control the speed at which we make…
We explain and restate the results from our recent paper arXiv:1503.08000.v3 in standard language for substitutions and $S$-adic systems in symbolic dynamics. We then produce as rather direct application an $S$-adic system (with finite set…
The automorphism group $Aut(X,\mu)$ of a compact, complete metric space $X$ with a Radon measure $\mu$ is a subgroup of $\mathcal{U}(L^2(X,\mu))$-the unitary group of operators on $L^2(X,\mu)$. The $Aut(X,\mu)$-action on the generalized…
We investigate strictly developable simple complexes of groups with arbitrary local groups, or equivalently, group actions admitting a strict fundamental domain. We introduce a new method for computing the cohomology of such groups. We also…
We couple projective limits of probability measures to direct limits of their symmetry groups. We show that the direct limit group is the group of symmetries of the projective limit probability measure. If projective systems of probability…
We refine two results in the paper entitled "Sofic mean dimension" by Hanfeng Li, improving two inequalities with two equalities, respectively, for sofic mean dimension of typical actions. On the one hand, we study sofic mean dimension of…
Building on an analogy with ordinary scalar field theories, an epsilon expansion for rank-3 tensorial group field theories with gauge invariance condition is introduced. This allows to continuously interpolate between the dimension four…
We find a lower bound on the proportion of derangements in a finite transitive group that depends on the minimal nontrivial subdegree. As a consequence, we prove that, if $\Gamma$ is a $G$-vertex-transitive digraph of valency $d\ge 1$, then…
The asymptotic dimension is an invariant of metric spaces introduced by Gromov in the context of geometric group theory. In this paper, we study the asymptotic dimension of metric spaces generated by graphs and their shortest path metric…
A simple algorithm to calculate the group theory factor entering in anomalies at four and six dimensions for SU(N) and SO(N) groups in terms of the Casimir invariants of their subgroups is presented. Explicit examples of some of the lower…
We compare three definitions of the equivariant cohomological dimension of a group with operators, coming from Takasu, Adamson and Bredon relative group cohomologies, giving examples of strict inequality in all cases where it can occur. We…
We define the extremal length of elements of the fundamental group of the twice punctured complex plane and give upper and lower bounds for this invariant. The bounds differ by a multiplicative constant. The main motivation comes from…
