The action of the idempotent deformations on finite groups is discussed. This action is described in terms of the homological properties of groups. The orbits of finite simple groups are determined.
We consider (random) walks in a multidimensional orthant. Using the idea of universality in probability theory, one can associate a unique polyhedral domain to any given walk model. We use this connection to prove two sets of new results.…
Diagram semigroups are interesting algebraic and combinatorial objects, several types of them originating from questions in computer science and in physics. Here we describe diagram semigroups in a general framework and extend our…
We consider Gaussian fields of real symmetric, complex Hermitian or quaternionic Hermitian matrices over an electrical network, and describe how the isomorphisms between these fields and random walks give rise to topological expansions…
In this paper we provide a framework for the study of isoperimetric problems in finitely generated group, through a combinatorial study of universal covers of compact simplicial complexes. We show that, when estimating filling functions,…
By definition, a group $G$ is quasi-perfect, if $G$ is perfect or the commutator subgroup of $G$ is perfect. In this note we give a description of quasi-perfect Dyer groups by properties of the corresponding Dyer graphs.
Closed subgroups of the group of isometries of the regular tree $\treeq$ that fix an end of the tree and are vertex-transitive are shown to correspond, on one hand, to self-replicating groups acting on rooted trees and, on the other hand,…
This survey studies pairs $(G,\mathcal{P})$ with $G$ a finitely generated group and $\mathcal{P}$ a (finite) collection of subgroups of $G$. We explore the notion of quasi-isometry of such pairs and the notion of a qi-characteristic…
In this paper, we explore spectral measures whose square integrable spaces admit a family of exponential functions as an orthonormal basis.Our approach involves utilizing the integral periodic zeros set of Fourier transform to characterize…
Given a finite-range random walk on a finitely generated free group , what is the asymptotic behaviour, as the number of steps goes to infinity, of the sequence of probabilities that the random walk is at a given element of the group? In…
Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic zero. In this paper, we consider finite $G$-equivariant morphisms $F:X\to Y$ of irreducible affine $G$-varieties. First we determine under which…
We establish new characterizations for (pseudo)isometric extensions of topological dynamical systems. For such extensions, we also extend results about relatively invariant measures and Fourier analysis that were previously only known in…
The usual way to investigate the statistical properties of finitely generated subgroups of free groups, and of finite presentations of groups, is based on the so-called word-based distribution: subgroups are generated (finite presentations…
We reduce the computation of Poisson traces on quotients of symplectic vector spaces by finite subgroups of symplectic automorphisms to a finite one, by proving several results which bound the degrees of such traces as well as the dimension…
This work deals with the structure of the isometry group of pseudo-Riemannian 2-step nilmanifolds. We study the action by isometries of several groups and we construct examples showing substantial differences with the Riemannain situation;…
We prove that every $2d$-regular unimodular random network carries an invariant random Schreier decoration. Equivalently, it is the Schreier coset graph of an invariant random subgroup of the free group $F_d$. As a corollary we get that…
We have defined and established a theory of cofinite connectedness of a cofinite graph. Many of the properties of connectedness of topological spaces have analogs for cofinite connectedness. We have seen that if $G$ is a cofinite group and…
In this paper we study the realizability question for commuting graphs of finite groups: Given an undirected graph $X$ is it the commuting graph of a group $G$? And if so, to determine such a group. We seek efficient algorithms for this…
We show that amenability of a group acting by homeomorphisms can be deduced from a certain local property of the action and recurrency of the orbital Schreier graphs. This covers amenability of a wide class groups, the amenability of which…
We study the automorphism groups attached to a free algebra with multiple, possibly infinitely many, composition laws. As an application, we prove that the automorphism group of finitely generated vertex algebras over noetherian rings are…
