We construct an increasing, submultiplicative, arbitrarily rapid function which is not equivalent to the growth function of any finitely generated algebra, demonstrating the difficulty in characterizing growth functions in an asymptotic…
An important problem in combinatorial noncommutative algebra is to characterize the growth functions of finitely generated algebras (equivalently, semigroups, or hereditary languages). The growth function of every finitely generated,…
We study the relative growth of finitely generated subgroups in finitely generated groups, and the corresponding distortion function of the embeddings. We explore which functions are equivalent to the relative growth functions and…
A class of subharmonic functions are proved to have the growth estimates $u(x)= o(x_n^{1-\frac{\alpha}{p}}|x|^{\frac{\gamma}{p}+\frac{n-1}{q}-n+\frac{\alpha}{p}})$ at infinity in the upper half space of ${\bf R}^{n}$, which generalizes the…
In this course of lectures we give an account of the growth theory of subharmonic functions, which is directed towards its applications to entire functions of one and several complex variables.
We calculate asymptotic estimates for the conjugacy growth function of finitely generated class 2 nilpotent groups whose derived subgroup is infinite cyclic, including the so-called higher Heisenberg groups. We prove that these asymptotics…
We realize any submultiplicative increasing function which is equivalent to a polynomial proportion of itself as the growth function of a finitely generated simple Lie algebra. As an application, we resolve two open problems posed by…
We consider the functions that bound the dimensions of finite-dimensional associative or Lie algebras in terms of the dimensions of their commutative subalgebras. It is proved that these functions have quadratic growth. As a result, we also…
We show that every non-decreasing function $f\colon \mathbb N\to \mathbb N$ bounded from above by $a^n$ for some $a\ge 1$ can be realized (up to a natural equivalence) as the conjugacy growth function of a finitely generated group. We also…
A new approach to the problem of finding the asymptotical behaviour of large orders of semiclassical expansion is suggested. Asymptotics of high orders not only for eigenvalues, but also for eigenfunctions, are constructed. Thus, one can…
We show that quadratic growth of a semi-algebraic function is equivalent to strong metric subregularity of the subdifferential --- a kind of stability of generalized critical points. In contrast, this equivalence can easily fail outside of…
We derive asymptotic formulae for the coefficients of bivariate generating functions with algebraic and logarithmic factors. Logarithms appear when encoding cycles of combinatorial objects, and also implicitly when objects can be broken…
In this article we relate word and subgroup growth to certain functions that arise in the quantification of residual finiteness. One consequence of this endeavor is a pair of results that equate the nilpotency of a finitely generated group…
A class of subharmonic functions represented by the modified kernels are proved to have the growth estimates $u(z)= o(y^{1-\alpha}|z|^{m+\alpha})$ at infinity in the upper half plane ${\bf C}_{+}$, which generalizes the growth properties of…
We formulate some problems and conjectures about semigroups of rational functions under composition. The considered problems arise in different contexts, but most of them are united by a certain relationship to the concept of amenability.
We show that Golod-Shafarevich algebras can be homomorphically mapped onto infinite-dimensional algebras with polynomial growth, under mild assumptions of the number of relations of given degrees. In case these algebras are finitely…
Let $A \cong k\langle X \rangle / I$ be an associative algebra. A finite word over alphabet $X$ is $I${\it-reducible} if its image in $A$ is a $k$-linear combination of length-lexicographically lesser words. An {\it obstruction} in a…
We study the growth of polynomials on semialgebraic sets. For this purpose we associate a graded algebra to the set, and address all kinds of questions about finite generation. We show that for a certain class of sets, the algebra is…
The asymptotic behaviour is studied of exponentially bounded sequences of codimensions of identities of algebras with unity. A series of algebras is constructed for which the base of the exponential increases by exactly one when an outer…
We construct finitely generated simple algebras with prescribed growth types, which can be arbitrarily taken from a large variety of (super-polynomial) growth types. This (partially) answers a question raised by the author in a recent…
