We extend the unitary groups beyond the ${\rm SU}(5)$ and ${\rm SU}(6)$ to look for possible grand unified theories that give rise to three-generational Standard Model fermions without the simple repetition. By demanding asymptotic free…

Noncommutative rational functions, i.e., elements of the universal skew field of fractions of a free algebra, can be defined through evaluations of noncommutative rational expressions on tuples of matrices. This interpretation extends their…

We introduce and study natural two-parameter families of quantum groups motivated on one hand by the liberations of classical orthogonal groups and on the other by quantum isometry groups of the duals of the free groups. Specifically, for…

Elements of the commutator subgroup of a free group can be presented as values of canonical forms, called Wicks forms. We show that, starting from sufficiently high genus g, there is a sequence of words w(g) which can be presented by f(g)…

In the present paper we show that there exist infinitely many consecutive square-free numbers of the form $n^2+1$, $n^2+2$. We also establish an asymptotic formula for the number of such square-free pairs when $n$ does not exceed given…

Using a new approach based on automatic sequences, logic, and a decision procedure, we reprove some old theorems about circularly squarefree words and unbordered conjugates in a new and simpler way. Furthermore, we prove three new results…

For a large prime $p$, a rational function $\psi \in F_p(X)$ over the finite field $F_p$ of $p$ elements, and integers $u$ and $H\ge 1$, we obtain a lower bound on the number consecutive values $\psi(x)$, $x = u+1, \ldots, u+H$ that belong…

We adapt Safin's result on powers of sets in free groups to obtain Helfgott type growth in free products: if A is any finite subset of a free product of two arbitrary groups then either A is conjugate into one of the factors, or the size of…

We provide an integral formula for the free energy of the two-matrix model with polynomial potentials of arbitrary degree (or formal power series). This is known to coincide with the tau-function of the dispersionless two--dimensional Toda…

Let $\Free_n$ denote the free group with $n$ generators $g_1, g_2, ..., g_n$. Let $\lambda$ stand for the left regular representation of $\Free_n$ and let $\tau$ be the standard trace associated to $\lambda$. Given any positive integer $d$,…

We introduce a model of random f.g., torsion-free, $2$-step nilpotent groups (in short, $\tau_2$-groups). To do so, we show that these are precisely the groups that admit a presentation of the form $ \label{tau2pres_0}\langle A, C \mid…

We show that any nonsingular (real or complex) square matrix can be factorized into a product of at most three normal matrices, one of which is unitary, another selfadjoint with eigenvalues in the open right half-plane, and the third one is…

We give a partial answer to a problem of Harju by constructing an infinite ternary squarefree word $w$ with the property that for every $k \geq 3312$ there is an interior length-$k$ factor of $w$ that can be deleted while still preserving…

We characterize semigroups in $\{0,1,2,\ldots\}$ of matricial dimension $2$ and produce a counterexample to the conjecture that a numerical semigroup whose small elements are lonely has matricial dimension at most $2$.

We produce an infinite family of transcendental numbers which, when raised to their own power, become rational. We extend the method, to investigate positive rational solutions to the equation $x^x = \alpha$, where $\alpha$ is a fixed…

We show that free products of sofic groups with amalgamation over monotileably amenable subgroups are sofic. Consequently, so are HNN extensions of sofic groups relative to homomorphisms of monotileably amenable subgroups. We also show that…

Infinite products associated with the $\pm 1$ Thue-Morse sequence whose value is rational or algebraic irrational have been studied by several authors. In this short note we prove three new infinite product identities involving ${\pi}$,…

We treat the $\tau$-tilting finiteness of those minimal representation-infinite (min-rep-infinite) algebras which are non-distributive. Building upon the new results of Bongartz, we fully determine which algebras in this family are…

For rational numbers $c$, we present a trichotomy of the set of totally real (totally $p$-adic, respectively) preperiodic points for maps in the quadratic unicritical family $f_c(x)=x^2+c$. As a consequence, we classify quadratic…

Let $\Gamma$ be a non-commutative free group on finitely many generators. In a previous work two of the authors have constructed the class of multiplicative representations of $\Gamma$ and proved them irreducible as representation of…
