We say a permutation $\pi=\pi_1\pi_2\cdots\pi_n$ in the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ has a peak at index $i$ if $\pi_{i-1}<\pi_i>\pi_{i+1}$ and we let $P(\pi)=\{i \in \{1, 2, \ldots, n\} \, \vert \, \mbox{$i$ is a peak of $\pi$}\}$.…
We use tools from geometric group theory to produce a stratification of the space $\mathcal{B}_n$ of barcodes with $n$ bars. The top-dimensional strata are indexed by permutations associated to barcodes as defined by Kanari, Garin and Hess.…
In 1996, Gersten proved that finitely presented subgroups of a word hyperbolic group of integral cohomological dimension 2 are hyperbolic. We use isoperimetric inequalities over arbitrary rings to extend this result to any ring. In…
We give a new proof of Quillen's conjecture for solvable groups via a geometric and explicit method. For p-solvable groups, we provide both a new proof using the Classification of Finite Simple Groups and an asymptotic version without…
In 2018, Kahle and Stump raised the following problem: identify sequences of finite Coxeter groups $W_n$ for which the two-sided descent statistics on a uniform random element of $W_n$ is asymptotically normal. Recently, Br\"uck and…
It is undecidable in general whether a given finitely presented group is word hyperbolic. We use the concept of pregroups, introduced by Stallings, to define a new class of van Kampen diagrams, which represent groups as quotients of…
This paper is an introduction to Coxeter polyhedra in spherical, Euclidean, and hyperbolic geometries. It consists of essentially two parts that could be read independently. In the first we introduce non-obtuse polyhedra in the spherical,…
A connection between real poles of the growth functions for Coxeter groups acting on hyperbolic space of dimensions three and greater and algebraic integers is investigated. In particular, a geometric convergence of fundamental domains for…
We study a class of double coset spaces R_A \backslash G_1 \times G_2 /R_C, where G_1 and G_2 are connected reductive algebraic groups, and R_A and R_C are certain spherical subgroups of G_1 \times G_2 obtained by ``identifying'' Levi…
Numerical methods for the computation of the parabolic cylinder $U(a,z)$ for real $a$ and complex $z$ are presented. The main tools are recent asymptotic expansions involving exponential and Airy functions, with slowly varying analytic…
We observe that a large part of the volume of a hyperbolic polyhedron is taken by a tubular neighbourhood of its boundary, and use this to give a new proof for the finiteness of arithmetic maximal reflection groups following a recent work…
For fixed compact connected Lie groups H \subseteq G, we provide a polynomial time algorithm to compute the multiplicity of a given irreducible representation of H in the restriction of an irreducible representation of G. Our algorithm is…
These notes are an introduction to symplectic groupoids and the double structures associated with them. The treatment is intended to lie about midway between the original account of Coste, Dazord and Weinstein, which relied on effective use…
An asymptotic formula for the number of partitions into p-cores is derived. As a byproduct some integer valued trigonometric sums are found
We describe an algorithm to compute the local Coleman-Gross p-adic height at p on a hyperelliptic curve. Previously, this was only possible using an algorithm due to Balakrishnan and Besser, which was limited to odd degree. While we follow…
Gromov and Piatetski-Shapiro proved existence of finite volume non-arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds of any given dimension. In dimension four and higher, we show that there are about v^v such manifolds of volume at most v, considered up to…
We take an approach toward counting the number of n for which the curves E_n: y^2=x^3-n^2x have 2-Selmer groups of a given size. This question was also discussed in a pair of Invent. Math. papers by Roger Heath-Brown. We discuss the…
The main aim of this paper is to provide a method which allows finding limiting shapes of symbolic generic initial systems of higher-dimensional subvarieties of P^n. M. Mustata and S. Mayes established a connection between volumes of…
We prove there are exactly 16 arithmetic lattices of hyperbolic 3-space which are generated by two elements of finite orders p and q with p,q at least six. We also verify a conjecture of H.M. Hilden, M.T. Lozano, and J.M. Montesinos…
We reinterpret an inequality, due originally to Sidorenko, for linear extensions of posets in terms of convex subsets of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. We conjecture that the analogous inequalities hold in arbitrary…
