Let $P$ be a simplex in $S^n$ and $G_P$ be a group generated by the reflections with respect to the facets of $P$. We are interested in the case when the group $G_P$ is discrete. In this case we say that $G$ generates the discrete…

This article treats Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation in the setting of a special class of algebraic curves called distinguished varieties. An interpolation theorem, along with additional operator theoretic results, is given using a family of…

Self-similar groups provide a rich source of groups with interesting properties; e.g., infinite torsion groups (Burnside groups) and groups with an intermediate word growth. Various self-similar groups can be described by a recursive…

According to [1] an $n$-dimensional $\mathcal{N}$--set is a compact subset $A$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that for every $x$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ there is $y$ in $A$ with $y-x$ in $\mathbb{Z}^n$. We prove that every two dimensional…

Let $G$ be a classical group over a non-Archimedean local field of odd residual characteristic. Using recent work of S. Stevens, we define a certain kind of semisimple stratum, called good, and show that it provides a simple type in $G$…

We provide characterizations of Lie groups as compact-like groups in which all closed zero-dimensional metric (compact) subgroups are discrete. The "compact-like" properties we consider include (local) compactness, (local)…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $\mathbb{Z}_p=\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$. We study finite groups with abelian derived subgroup and exponent $p$ in terms of group extension data and their matrix presentations. We show a one-to-one correspondence…

We say that a countable discrete group $\Gamma$ satisfies the invariant von Neumann subalgebras rigidity (ISR) property if every $\Gamma$- invariant von Neumann subalgebra $\mathcal{M}$ in $L(\Gamma)$ is of the form $L(\Lambda)$ for some…

We study the Ap\'ery set of good subsemigoups of $\mathbb N^2$, a class of semigroups containing the value semigroups of curve singularities with two branches. Even if this set in infinite, we show that, for the Ap\'ery set of such…

We introduce a new class of countably infinite random geometric graphs, whose vertices are points in a metric space, and vertices are adjacent independently with probability p if the metric distance between the vertices is below a given…

The Gruenberg-Kegel graph $\Gamma(G)$ associated with a finite group $G$ has as vertices the prime divisors of $|G|$, with an edge from $p$ to $q$ if and only if $G$ contains an element of order $pq$. This graph has been the subject of much…

We explicitly construct the structure of Jacquet modules of parabolically induced representations of even unitary groups and even general unitary groups over a $p$-adic field $F$ of characteristic different than two. As an application, we…

Let $\Gamma$ be an abelian group and $g \geq h \geq 2$ be integers. A set $A \subset \Gamma$ is a $C_h[g]$-set if given any set $X \subset \Gamma$ with $|X| = k$, and any set $\{ k_1 , \dots , k_g \} \subset \Gamma$, at least one of the…

A countable discrete group $\Gamma$ is said to have the relative ISR-property if for every non-trivial normal subgroup $N\trianglelefteq\Gamma$ and every von Neumann subalgebra $\mathcal{M}\subseteq L(\Gamma)$ invariant under conjugation by…

We describe a flexible construction that produces triples of finitely generated, residually finite groups $M\hookrightarrow P \hookrightarrow \Gamma$, where the maps induce isomorphisms of profinite completions…

We study four (families of) sets of algebraic integers of degree less than or equal to three. Apart from being simply defined, we show that they share two distinctive characteristics: almost uniformity and arithmetical independence. Here,…

We study identities of finite dimensional algebras over a field of characteristic zero, graded by an arbitrary groupoid $\Gamma$. First we prove that its graded colength has a polynomially bounded growth. For any graded simple algebra $A$…

A complex irreducible character of a finite group G is said to be p-constant, for some prime p dividing the order of G, if it takes constant value at the set of p-singular elements of G. In this paper we classify irreducible p-constant…

We classify irreducible representations of the special linear groups in positive characteristic with small weight multiplicities with respect to the group rank and give estimates for the maximal weight multiplicities. For the natural…

Let G=(V,E). A set S is independent if no two vertices from S are adjacent. The number d(X)= |X|-|N(X)| is the difference of X, and an independent set A is critical if d(A) = max{d(I):I is an independent set}. Let us recall that ker(G) is…
