By making use of arithmetic information inequalities, we give a strong quantitative bound for the discretised ring theorem. In particular, we show that if $A \subset [1,2]$ is a $(\delta,\sigma)$-set, with $|A| = \delta^{-\sigma},$ then…
There has been substantial investigation in recent years of subdirect products of limit groups and their finite presentability and homological finiteness properties. To contrast the results obtained for limit groups, Baumslag, Bridson, Holt…
We study stability of metric approximations of countable groups with respect to groups endowed with ultrametrics, the main case study being a $p$-adic analogue of Ulam stability, where we take $GL_n(\mathbb{Z}_p)$ as approximating groups…
Let $G$ be a finite group written multiplicatively. By a sequence over $G$, we mean a finite sequence of terms from $G$ which is unordered, repetition of terms allowed, and we say that it is a product-one sequence if its terms can be…
Let $\G$ denote a bipartite distance-regular graph with vertex set $X$ and diameter $D \ge 3$. Fix $x \in X$ and let $L$ (resp. $R$) denote the corresponding lowering (resp. raising) matrix. We show that each $Q$-polynomial structure for…
Let $G$ be a locally compact totally disconnected topological group. Under a necessary mild assumption, we show that the irreducible unitary representations of $G$ are uniformly admissible if and only if the irreducible smooth…
Let $X_{m} = G_{1}\ldots G_{m}$ denote the product of $m$ independent random matrices of size $N \times N$, with each matrix in the product consisting of independent standard Gaussian variables. Denoting by $N_{\mathbb{R}}(m)$ the total…
Given a finite, connected 2-complex $X$ such that $b_2(X)\le1$ we establish two existence results for representations of the fundamental group of $X$ into compact connected Lie groups $G$, with prescribed values on certain loops. If…
Navarro has conjectured a necessary and sufficient condition for a finite group $G$ to have a self-normalising Sylow $2$-subgroup, which is given in terms of the ordinary irreducible characters of $G$. The first-named author has reduced the…
In this review we summarise recent results for the complex eigenvalues and singular values of finite products of finite size random matrices, their correlation functions and asymptotic limits. The matrices in the product are taken from…
We investigate the group $G \vee H$ obtained by gluing together two groups $G$ and $H$ at the neutral element. This construction curiously shares some properties with the free product but others with the direct product. Our results address…
Let $w \in F_2$ be a word and let $m$ and $n$ be two positive integers. We say that a finite group $G$ has the $w_{m,n}$-property if however a set $M$ of $m$ elements and a set $N$ of $n$ elements of the group is chosen, there exist at…
A seminal result of H\r{a}stad [J. ACM, 48(4):798--859, 2001] shows that it is NP-hard to find an assignment that satisfies $\frac{1}{|G|}+\varepsilon$ fraction of the constraints of a given $k$-LIN instance over an abelian group, even if…
The BK inequality (\cite{BK85}) says that,for product measures on $\{0,1\}^n$, the probability that two increasing events $A$ and $B$ `occur disjointly' is at most the product of the two individual probabilities. The conjecture in…
A general structural equation model is fitted on a panel data set that consists of $I$ correlated samples. The correlated samples could be data from correlated populations or correlated observations from occasions of panel data. We consider…
Let $K$ be a number field, let $X$ be a smooth integral variety over $K$, and assume that there exists a finite set of finite places $S$ of $K$ such that the $S$-integral points on $X$ are dense. Then the combined conjectures of Campana and…
Let $K$ be field of characteristic 2 and let $G$ be a finite non-abelian 2-group with the cyclic derived subgroup $G'$, and there exists a central element $z$ of order 2 in $Z(G) \backslash G'$. We prove that the unit group of the group…
Every finite simple group can be generated by two elements, and in 2000, Guralnick and Kantor resolved a 1962 question of Steinberg by proving that in a finite simple group every nontrivial element belongs to a generating pair. Groups with…
Suppose that $\tilde{G}$ is a connected reductive group defined over a field $k$, and $\Gamma$ is a finite group acting via $k$-automorphisms of $\tilde{G}$ satisfying a certain quasi-semisimplicity condition. Then the connected part of the…
Let $G$ be a group and $g$ a non-trivial element in $G$. If some non-empty finite product of conjugates of $g$ equals to the identity, then $g$ is called a generalized torsion element. The minimum number of conjugates in such a product is…
