We show that if a closed discrete subset $A \subseteq \mathbf{R}^d$ is denser than a certain critical threshold, then $A$ is a Fourier uniqueness set, while if $A$ is sparser, then uniqueness fails and one can prescribe arbitrary values for…
Let $G$ be a connected semisimple real algebraic group and $\Gamma<G$ be its Zariski dense discrete subgroup. We prove that if $\Gamma\backslash G$ admits any finite Bowen-Margulis-Sullivan measure, then $\Gamma$ is virtually a product of…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated group, and let $\mu$ be a nondegenerate, finitely supported probability measure on $\Gamma$. We show that every co-compact $\Gamma$ action on a locally compact Hausdorff space admits a nonzero…
We calculate the exact parity odd part of the effective action ($\Gamma_{odd}^{2d+1}$) for massive Dirac fermions in 2d+1 dimensions at finite temperature, for a certain class of gauge field configurations. We consider first Abelian…
An element $g$ in a group $G$ is called reversible if $g$ is conjugate to $g^{-1}$ in $ G $. An element $g$ in $G$ is strongly reversible if $ g $ is conjugate to $g^{-1}$ by an involution in $G$. The group of affine transformations of…
We study the action of the affine group $G$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ on the space $X_{k,\,d}$ of $k$-dimensional affine subspaces. Given a compactly-supported Zariski dense probability measure $\mu$ on $G$, we show that $X_{k,\,d}$ supports a…
We show that the Fourier transform of Patterson-Sullivan measures associated to convex cocompact groups of isometries of real hyperbolic space decays polynomially quickly at infinity. The proof is based on the $L^2$-flattening theorem…
We prove a rigidity theorem for semi-arithmetic Fuchsian groups: If $\Gamma_1$, $\Gamma_2$ are two semi-arithmetic lattices in $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ virtually admitting modular embeddings and $f\colon\Gamma_1\to\Gamma_2$ is a group…
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 prove several cases of Zimmer's conjecture for actions of higher-rank cocompact lattices on low dimensional manifolds. For example, if $\Gamma$ is a cocompact lattice in $\mathrm{Sl}(n, \mathbb R)$, $M$ is a compact manifold, and…
If $\bar\rho$ is an automorphic modulo $p$ Galois representation, it is natural to wonder if automorphic points are Zariski dense in the deformation space of $\bar\rho$. We prove new results in this direction in the case of a unitary group…
For any standard Borel space $B$, let $\mathcal{P}(B)$ denote the space of Borel probability measures on $B$. In relation to a difficult problem of Aldous in exchangeability theory, and in connection with arithmetic combinatorics, Austin…
Let $G$ be a connected semisimple simply connected Lie group with a compact Cartan subgroup and let $\Gamma$ be a uniform lattice in $G$. Let $\widehat{G}_d$ denote the set of equivalence classes of unitary discrete series representations…
Consider the general linear group, which is not connected but rather has two connected components, the matrices with positive determinant and the ones with negative determinant. Consider the Iwasawa decomposition of its special linear…
Given positive measures $\nu,\mu$ on an arbitrary measurable space $(\Omega, \mathcal F)$, we construct a sequence of finite partitions $(\pi_n)_n$ of $(\Omega, \mathcal F)$ s.t. $$ \sum_{A\in \pi_n: \mu(A)>0} 1_{A} \frac{\nu(A)}{\mu(A)}…
Motivated by a classic theorem of Birman and Series about the set of complete simple geodesics on a hyperbolic surface, we study the Hausdorff dimension of the set of endpoints in $\partial F_r$ of some abstract algebraic laminations…
Let $\fre\subset\bbR$ be a finite union of $\ell+1$ disjoint closed intervals and denote by $\omega_j$ the harmonic measure of the $j$ leftmost bands. The frequency module for $\fre$ is the set of all integral combinations of $\omega_1,...,…
The real Fourier-Mukai (RFM) transform relates calibrated graphs to so-called "deformed instantons" on Hermitian line bundles. We show that under the RFM transform, complex Lagrangian graphs in $R^{2n} \times T^{2n}$ correspond to…
We consider finite approximations of a fractal generated by an iterated function system of affine transformations on $\mathbb{R}^d$ as a discrete set of data points. Considering a signal supported on this finite approximation, we propose a…
We show that if $\lbrace \varphi_i\rbrace_{i\in \Gamma}$ and $\lbrace \psi_j\rbrace_{j\in\Lambda}$ are self-affine iterated function systems on the plane that satisfy strong separation, domination and irreducibility, then for any associated…
