This is the fourth paper in a series. We prove a conjecture made independently by Boston et al and Shalev. The conjecture asserts that there is an absolute positive constant delta such that if G is a finite simple group acting transitively…
For $n\geq 2$, let $\Gamma\subset \mathrm{SU}((n,1),\mathcal{O}_{K})$ be a torsion-free, finite-index subgroup, where $\mathcal{O}_K$ denotes the ring of integers of a totally imaginary number field $K$ of degree $2$. Let $\mathbb{B}^n$…
L\'evai and Pyber proposed the following as a conjecture: Let $G$ be a profinite group such that the set of solutions of the equation $x^n=1$ has positive Haar measure. Then $G$ has an open subgroup $H$ and an element $t$ such that all…
This paper introduces the concept of average conformal hyperbolic sets, which admit only one positive and one negative Lyapunov exponents for any ergodic measure. For an average conformal hyperbolic set of a C1 diffeomorphism, utilizing the…
The asymptotic bound for a length-based attack on the Conjugacy Search Problem in relatively hyperbolic groups is cubic for hyperbolic elements and a "small" polynomial for parabolic elements, depending on the Conjugacy Search Problem for…
Let ($M$, $\Omega$) be a smooth symplectic manifold and $f:M\rightarrow M$ be a symplectic diffeomorphism of class $C^l$ ($l\geq 3$). Let $N$ be a compact submanifold of $M$ which is boundaryless and normally hyperbolic for $f$. We suppose…
A generalization of the Davenport constant is investigated. For a finite abelian group $G$ and a positive integer $k$, let $D_k(G)$ denote the smallest $\ell$ such that each sequence over $G$ of length at least $\ell$ has $k$ disjoint…
In this paper, we show that, if a group $G$ acts geometrically on a geodesically complete CAT(0) space $X$ which contains at least one point with a CAT(-1) neighborhood, then $G$ must be either virtually cyclic or acylindrically hyperbolic.…
Let G be a non-elementary torsion-free hyperbolic group. We prove that the exponential growth rate of the periodic quotient G/G^n tends to the one of G as n odd approaches infinity. Moreover we provide an estimate at which the convergence…
We prove (Theorem~1.5) that there exists a constant $\Lambda > 0$ so that if $M$ is a $(\mu,d)$-generic complete hyperbolic 3-manifold of volume $\vol[M] < \infty$ and $\Sigma \subset M$ is a Heegaard surface of genus $g(\Sigma) > \Lambda…
Let $G$ be the alternating group $\mbox{Alt}(n)$ on $n$ letters. We prove that for any $\varepsilon > 0$ there exists $N = N(\varepsilon) \in \mathbb{N}$ such that whenever $n \geq N$ and $A$, $B$, $C$, $D$ are normal subsets of $G$ each of…
We prove that Bernoulli bond percolation on any nonamenable, Gromov hyperbolic, quasi-transitive graph has a phase in which there are infinitely many infinite clusters, verifying a well-known conjecture of Benjamini and Schramm (1996) under…
We prove asymptotically isometric, coarsely geodesic metrics on a toral relatively hyperbolic group are coarsely equal. The theorem applies to all lattices in SO(n,1). This partly verifies a conjecture by Margulis. In the case of hyperbolic…
We generalize the Davenport transform and use it to prove that, for a (possibly non-commutative) cancellative semigroup $\mathbb A = (A, +)$ and non-empty subsets $X,Y$ of $A$ such that the subsemigroup generated by $Y$ is commutative, we…
We investigate the conjugacy growth of finitely generated linear groups. We show that finitely generated non-virtually-solvable subgroups of GL_d have uniform exponential conjugacy growth and in fact that the number of distinct polynomials…
We study the distribution of finite clusters in slightly supercritical ($p \downarrow p_c$) Bernoulli bond percolation on transitive nonamenable graphs, proving in particular that if $G$ is a transitive nonamenable graph satisfying the…
Let $G$ be a group acting acylindrically on a hyperbolic space and let $E$ be an exponential equation over $G$. We show that $E$ is equivalent to a finite disjunction of finite systems of pairwise independent equations which are either…
In this paper, we introduce a geometric statistic called the "sprawl" of a group with respect to a generating set, based on the average distance in the word metric between pairs of words of equal length. The sprawl quantifies a certain…
We present a new notion of non-positively curved groups: the collection of discrete countable groups acting (AU-)acylindrically on finite products of $\delta$-hyperbolic spaces with general type factors and associated subdirect products.…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $D(G)$ denote the Davenport constant of $G$. We derive new upper bound for the Davenport constant for all groups of rank three. Our main result is that: $$D(C_{n_1}\oplus C_{n_2}\oplus C_{n_3})\le…
