In this article we study the structure of $\Gamma$-invariant spaces of $L^2(\bf R)$. Here $\bf R$ is a second countable LCA group. The invariance is with respect to the action of $\Gamma$, a non commutative group in the form of a semidirect…

We consider metric versions of weak soficity, LEF and residual finiteness. The main results of the paper extend Glebsky and Rivera's characterization of weak soficity to the case of normally finitely generated groups with word metrics.…

The functions $F_{G}(n)$ measures the asymptotic behavior of residual finiteness for a finitely generated group $G$. In previous work \cite{Pengitore_1}, the author claimed a characterization for $F_{N}(n)$ when $N$ is a finitely generated…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite connected graph and $G$ a vertex-transitive group of its automorphisms. The pair $(\Gamma, G)$ is said to be locally-$L$ if the permutation group induced by the action of the vertex-stabiliser $G_v$ on the set of…

A graph $\Gamma$ is called locally finite if, for each vertex $v$ of $\Gamma$, the set $\Gamma(v)$ of all neighbors of $v$ in $\Gamma$ is finite. For any locally finite graph $\Gamma$ with vertex set $V(\Gamma)$ and for any field $F$, let…

Let $\Gamma<\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{C})\simeq \mathrm{Isom}^+(\mathbb{H}^3)$ be a finitely generated non-Fuchsian Kleinian group whose ordinary set $\Omega=\mathbb{S}^2-\Lambda$ has at least two components. Let $\rho : \Gamma \to…

We demonstrate under appropriate finiteness conditions that a coarse embedding induces an inequality of homological Dehn functions. Applications of the main results include a characterization of what finitely presentable groups may admit a…

The concept of a C-approximable group, for a class of finite groups C, is a common generalization of the concepts of a sofic, weakly sofic, and linear sofic group. Glebsky raised the question whether all groups are approximable by finite…

It is relatively easy to construct a finitely generated group with infinite asymptotic dimension: the restricted wreath product of $\mathbb{Z}$ by $\mathbb{Z}$ provides an example. In light of this, it becomes interesting to consider the…

We study model geometries of finitely generated groups. If a finitely generated group does not contain a non-trivial finite rank free abelian commensurated subgroup, we show any model geometry is dominated by either a symmetric space of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated cocompact lattice of a totally disconnected locally compact group $G$, and $C$ a dense subgroup of $G$ that contains and commensurates $\Gamma$. We study the problem of describing all finitely generated…

We develop a formal group--theoretic framework for the Riemann zeta function by treating its Euler product as an element of the multiplicative formal group $\widehat{\mathbb{G}}_m$ and its logarithm as the associated formal group logarithm.…

We present examples of geometrically finite manifolds with pinched negative curvature, whose geodesic flow has infinite non-ergodic Bowen-Margulis measure and whose Poincar\'e series converges at the critical exponent $\delta_\Gamma$. We…

For a finitely generated group $\Gamma$ denote by $\mu(\Gamma)$ the growth coefficient of $\Gamma$, that is, the infimum over all real numbers $d$ such that $s_n(\Gamma)<n!^d$. We show that the growth coefficient of a virtually free group…

Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary Kleinian group and $H<\Gamma$ a finitely generated, proper subgroup. We prove that if $\Gamma$ has finite co-volume, then the profinite completions of $H$ and $\Gamma$ are not isomorphic. If $H$ has finite…

We analyse the $\Gamma$-convergence of general non-local convolution type functionals with varying densities depending on the space variable and on the symmetrized gradient. The limit is a local free-discontinuity functional, where the bulk…

We prove that for lambda = beta_omega or just lambda strong limit singular of cofinality aleph_0, if there is a universal member in the class K^lf_lambda of locally finite groups of cardinality lambda, then there is a canonical one…

All groups under consideration are finite. Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_i \mid i\in I \}$ be some partition of the set of $\mathbb{P}$, $G$ be a group, and $\mathfrak F$ be a class of groups. Then $\sigma (G)=\{\sigma_i\mid \sigma_i\cap \pi (G)\ne…

We exhibit a finitely generated group $G$ and a sequence of finite index normal subgroups $N_n\trianglelefteq G$ such that for every finite generating subset $S\subseteq G$, the sequence of finite Cayley graphs $(G/N_n, S)$ does not…

We show that the finiteness length of an $S$-arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ in a noncommutative isotropic absolutely almost simple group $G$ over a global function field is one less than the sum of the local ranks of $G$ taken over the places…
