The perturbed GUE corners ensemble is the joint distribution of eigenvalues of all principal submatrices of a matrix $G+\mathrm{diag}(\mathbf{a})$, where $G$ is the random matrix from the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE), and…

We consider the spectrum of additive, polynomially vanishing random perturbations of deterministic matrices, as follows. Let $M_N$ be a deterministic $N\times N$ matrix, and let $G_N$ be a complex Ginibre matrix. We consider the matrix…

Let $n\geq2$ be a natural number. Let $M_n(\mathbb{K})$ be the ring of all $n \times n$ matrices over a field $\mathbb{K}$. Fix natural number $k$ satisfying $1<k\leq n$. Under a mild technical assumption over $\mathbb{K}$ we will show that…

We consider a continuous analogue of Babai et al.'s and Cai et al.'s problem of solving multiplicative matrix equations. Given $k+1$ square matrices $A_{1}, \ldots, A_{k}, C$, all of the same dimension, whose entries are real algebraic, we…

The Union-Closed Sets Conjecture asks whether every union-closed set family $\mathcal{F}$ has an element contained in half of its sets. In 2022, Nagel posed a generalisation of this problem, suggesting that the $k$th-most popular element in…

Let $\mathcal G_n$ denote the space of $n$-generated marked groups. We prove that, for every $n\ge 2$, there exist $2^{\aleph_0}$ non-atomic, $Out(F_n)$-invariant, mixing probability measures on $\mathcal G_n$. On the other hand, there are…

An algebraic variety is said to have the $A_k$-property if any $k$ points are contained in some common affine open neighbourhood. A theorem of W{\l}odarczyk states that a normal variety has the $A_2$-property if and only if it admits a…

Conditional on the extended Riemann hypothesis, we show that with high probability, the characteristic polynomial of a random symmetric $\{\pm 1\}$-matrix is irreducible. This addresses a question raised by Eberhard in recent work. The main…

We show that for every compact 3-manifold $M$ there exists an open subset of $\diff ^1(M)$ in which every generic diffeomorphism admits uncountably many ergodic probability measures which are hyperbolic while their supports are disjoint and…

The Markoff group of transformations is a group $\Gamma$ of affine integral morphisms, which is known to act transitively on the set of all positive integer solutions to the equation $x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}=xyz$. The fundamental strong…

Using tools from the theory of optimal transport, we establish several results concerning isometric actions of amenable topological groups with potentially unbounded orbits. Specifically, suppose $d$ is a compatible left-invariant metric on…

We study the asymptotic properties of the trajectories of a discrete-time random dynamical system in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. Under some natural assumptions on the model, we establish a multiplica-tive ergodic theorem with an…

If we pick two elements of a non-abelian group at random, the odds this pair commutes is at most 5/8, so there is a "gap" between abelian and non-abelian groups \cite{G}. We prove a "topological" generalization estimating the odds a word…

Let $\mathcal{G}=\mathrm{Spec}(A)$ be a finite and flat group scheme over the ring of algebraic integers $R$ of a number field $K$ and suppose that the generic fiber of $\mathcal{G}$ is the constant group scheme over $K$ for a finite group…

Let alpha = (a,b,...) be a composition. Consider the associated poset F(alpha), called a fence, whose covering relations are x_1 < x_2 < ... < x_{a+1} > x_{a+2} > ... > x_{a+b+1} < x_{a+b+2} < ... . We study the associated distributive…

Let $N$ be a positive integer and $K$ be a number field. Suppose that $f_1,f_2 \in S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ are two newforms such that their residual Galois representations at $2$ are isomorphic. Let $\omega_2: G_{\mathbb Q} \rightarrow {\mathbb…

Recently the third named author defined a 2-parametric family of groups $G_n^k$ \cite{gnk}. Those groups may be regarded as a certain generalisation of braid groups. Study of the connection between the groups $G_n^k$ and dynamical systems…

Let $(X,\mu)$ be a probability space, $G$ a countable amenable group and $(F_n)_n$ a left F\o lner sequence in $G$. This paper analyzes the non-conventional ergodic averages \[\frac{1}{|F_n|}\sum_{g \in F_n}\prod_{i=1}^d (f_i\circ…

For a nonnegative matrix A and real diagonal matrix D, two known inequalities on the spectral radius, r(A^2 D^2) >= r(AD)^2 and r(A) r(A D^2) >= r(AD)^2, leave open the question of what determines the order of r(A^2 D^2) with respect to…

Combinatorial transition matrices arise frequently in the theory of symmetric functions and their generalizations. The entries of such matrices often count signed, weighted combinatorial structures such as semistandard tableaux, rim-hook…
