We study linear and hermitian representations of finite $C_2$-graded groups. We prove that the category of linear representations is equivalent to a category of antilinear representations as an $\infty$-category. We also prove that the…

Generalizing the theorem of Green--Lazarsfeld and Gromov, we classify Kaehler groups of deficiency at least two. As a consequence we see that there are no Kaehler groups of even and strictly positive deficiency. With the same arguments we…

We study random quotients of a fixed non-elementary hyperbolic group in the Gromov density model. Let $G=\langle S\;\vert\; T\rangle $ be a finite presentation of a non-elementary hyperbolic group, and let $Ann_{l,\omega }(G)$ be the set of…

Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over a perfect field. We study the representability of the equivariant automorphism group of G-varieties. For a broad class of complexity-one G-varieties, we show that this group is…

Let K be a finite extension of Qp. We fix a continuous absolutely irreducible representation of the absolute Galois group of K over a finite dimensional vector space with coefficient in a finite field of characteristic p and consider its…

It is proven that, contrarily to the common belief, the notion of zero is not necessary for having positional representations of numbers. Namely, for any positive integer $k$, a positional representation with the symbols for $1, 2, \ldots,…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $K$ a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We state conjectures on the smooth representations of $\mathrm{GL}_n(K)$ that occur in spaces of mod $p$ automorphic forms (for compact unitary groups). In particular,…

We prove that generic Hitchin representations are strongly dense: every pair of non commuting elements in their image generate a Zariski-dense subgroup of SL_n(R). The proof uses a theorem of Rapinchuk, Benyash-Krivetz and Chernousov, to…

We prove that for pairwise co-prime numbers $k_1,\dots,k_d \geq 2$ there does not exist any infinite set of positive integers $A$ such that the representation function $r_A (n) = \{ (a_1, \dots, a_d) \in A^d : k_1 a_1 + \dots + k_d a_d = n…

Let $\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. For all but finitely many $m\in \mathbb{N}$, we exhibit the first examples of non-locally rigid, Zariski dense, robust quasi-isometric embeddings of hyperbolic groups in…

We estimate the number of graphical regular representations (GRRs) of a given group with large enough order. As a consequence, we show that almost all finite Cayley graphs have full automorphism groups 'as small as possible'. This confirms…

A countable group G is called k-linear sofic (for some 0 <k \le 1) if finite subsets of G admit "approximate representations" by complex invertible matrices in the normalized rank metric, so that non-identity elements are k-away from the…

In this note the smooth (i.e. with open stabilizers) linear and {\sl semilinear} representations of certain permutation groups (such as infinite symmetric group or automorphism group of an infinite-dimensional vector space over a finite…

We propose a criterion for preserving the regularity of a formal language representation when passing from groups to subgroups. We use this criterion to show that the regularity of a positive cone language in a left-orderable group passes…

Let A be a basic connected finite dimensional algebra over a field k and let Q be the ordinary quiver of A. To any presentation of A with Q and admissible relations, R. Martinez-Villa and J. A. de La Pena have associated a group called the…

We prove that if a recursively presented group admits a (nonempty) subshift of finite type with nonzero Medvedev degree then it fails to have the strong topological Rokhlin property. This result simplifies a known criterion and provides new…

Given a number field $k$, we show that, for many finite groups $G$, all the Galois extensions of $k$ with Galois group $G$ cannot be obtained by specializing any given finitely many Galois extensions $E/k(T)$ with Galois group $G$ and $E/k$…

In this short note we show that every connected reductive simply-connected algebraic group of rank $>1$ over the complex numbers has infinitely many pairs of irreducible representations which are not related by an automorphism of the…

Let $k$ be a nonarchimedean local field. For any $n\geq 3$, we construct the first examples of robust quasi-isometric embeddings of non-elementary free groups into $\mathsf{GL}_n(k)$ which are not limits of Anosov representations. If…

The ratio set of a set of positive integers $A$ is defined as $R(A) := \{a / b : a, b \in A\}$. The study of the denseness of $R(A)$ in the set of positive real numbers is a classical topic and, more recently, the denseness in the set of…
