In this paper we shall study smooth submanifolds immersed in a k-step Carnot group G of homogeneous dimension Q. Among other results, we shall prove an isoperimetric inequality for the case of a $C^2$-smooth compact hypersurface S with - or…

We study metric contraction properties for metric spaces associated with left-invariant sub-Riemannian metrics on Carnot groups. We show that ideal sub-Riemannian structures on Carnot groups satisfy such properties and give a lower bound of…

A measure-scaling quasi-isometry between two connected graphs is a quasi-isometry that is quasi-$\kappa$-to-one in a natural sense for some $\kappa>0$. For non-amenable graphs, all quasi-isometries are quasi-$\kappa$-to-one for any…

In this paper, by isometrically embedding $(\mathbf{S}^{n+1},g_{\mathbf{S}^{n+1}})$ into $\mathbf{R}^{n+2}$, and using nonlinear analysis on the codimension-2 graphs, we will show that the level-sets of the distance function from the…

Suppose A is an open subset of a Carnot group G, where G has a discrete analogue, and H is another Carnot group. We show that a Lipschitz function from A to H whose image has positive Hausdorff measure in the appropriate dimension is…

The classical decomposition theory for states on a C*-algebra that are invariant under a group action has been studied by using the theory of orthogonal measures on the state space \cite{BR1}. In \cite{BK3}, we introduced the notion of…

The configuration space $\mathcal{C}^n(X)$ of an algebraic curve $X$ is the algebraic variety consisting of all $n$-point subsets $Q\subset X$. We describe the automorphisms of $\mathcal{C}^n(\mathbb{C})$, deduce that the (infinite…

In the first part of the paper, we study conformal groups that act properly discontinuously and cocompactly on simply connected, non-flat homogeneous plane waves. We show that proper cocompact similarity actions that are not isometric can…

We prove that an arbitrary compact metrizable group can be realized as the automorphism group of a graphing; this is a continuous analogue to Frucht's theorem recovering arbitrary finite groups are automorphism groups of finite graphs. The…

We generalize the notion of isoperimetric profiles of finitely generated groups to their actions by measuring the boundary of finite subgraphings of the orbit graphing. We prove that like the classical isoperimetric profiles for groups,…

This paper is devoted to the proof of two related results. The first one asserts that if $\mu$ is a Radon measure in $\mathbb R^d$ satisfying $$\limsup_{r\to 0} \frac{\mu(B(x,r))}{r}>0\quad \text{ and }\quad…

Let $G=NH$ be a Lie group where $N,H$ are closed connected subgroups of $G,$ and $N$ is an exponential solvable Lie group which is normal in $G.$ Suppose furthermore that $N$ admits a unitary character $\chi_{\lambda}$ corresponding to a…

We prove a generalisation of the correspondence, due to Resende and Lawson--Lenz, between \'etale groupoids---which are topological groupoids whose source map is a local homeomorphisms---and complete pseudogroups---which are inverse monoids…

By introducing an intrinsic perimeter measure for intrinsic countably rectifiable sets, we prove a compactness result and a Poincar\'e inequality for special functions with bounded variation in equiregular Carnot-Carath\'eodory spaces which…

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…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study some basic concepts of quantitative rectifiability in the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$. In particular, we aim to demonstrate that new phenomena arise compared to the Euclidean…

We develop a comprehensive theory of conformal graph directed Markov systems in the non-Riemannian setting of Carnot groups equipped with a sub-Riemannian metric. In particular, we develop the thermodynamic formalism and show that, under…

This paper is devoted to the study of geodesic distances defined on a subdomain of a given Carnot group, which are bounded both from above and from below by fixed multiples of the Carnot-Carath\'{e}odory distance. We show that the uniform…

Analytic properties of right topological groups have been extensively studied in the compact admissible case (i.e when the group has a dense topological center). This was inspired by the existence of a Haar measure on such groups. In this…

A topological group $G$ is called extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. This concept is linked with geometry of high dimensions (concentration of measure). We show that a von Neumann…
