Let $\mathcal{P}$ denote the set of all primes. $P_{1},P_{2},P_{3}$ are three subsets of $\mathcal{P}$. Let $\underline{\delta}(P_{i})$ $(i=1,2,3)$ denote the lower density of $P_{i}$ in $\mathcal{P}$, respectively. It is proved that if…

In this paper, we introduce a simple Bessel $\delta$-method to the theory of exponential sums for $\rm GL_2$. Some results of Jutila on exponential sums are generalized in a less technical manner to holomorphic newforms of arbitrary level…

Main theorems of the article concern the problem of M. Atiyah on possible values of l^2-Betti numbers. It is shown that all non-negative real numbers are l^2-Betti numbers, and that "many" (for example all non-negative algebraic) real…

In this paper, the notion of the conjugate of an L-subgroup by an L-point has been introduced. Then, several properties of conjugate L-subgroups have been studied analogous to their group-theoretic counterparts. Also, the notion of…

We systematically study L^2-Betti numbers in zero and prime characteristic and apply them to a conjecture of Wise stating that all towers of a finite 2-complex are non-positive if and only if the second L^2-Betti number vanishes.

Given a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ and a multiparameter $\mathbf{q}$ of real numbers indexed by $S$, one can define the weighted $L^2$-cohomology groups and associate to them a nonnegative real number called the weighted $L^2$-Betti number. We…

We use the notion of the principal three-dimensional subgroup of a simple Lie group to identify certain special subspaces of the Lie algebra and address the question of whether these are calibrated for invariant forms on the group.

We provide a proof that the vanishing of $\ell^2$-Betti numbers of unimodular locally compact second countable groups is an invariant of coarse equivalence.

This paper deals with the number of subgroups of a given exponent in a finite abelian group. Explicit formulas are obtained in the case of rank two and rank three abelian groups. An asymptotic formula is also presented.

Let $n$ be an integer greater than or equal to $3$ and $(R,\Delta)$ a Hermitian form ring where $R$ is commutative. We prove that if $H$ is a subgroup of the odd-dimensional unitary group $U_{2n+1}(R,\Delta)$ normalised by a relative…

We announce new results concerning the asymptotic behavior of the Betti numbers of higher rank locally symmetric spaces as their volumes tend to infinity. Our main theorem is a uniform version of the L\"uck Approximation Theorem…

We introduce a quantitative version of polynomial cohomology for discrete groups and show that it coincides with usual group cohomology when combinatorial filling functions are polynomially bounded. As an application, we show that Betti…

The paper offers versions of Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem for the lifting of points in a cyclic subgroup of an algebraic group to a ramified cover. A version of Bertini Theorem in this context is also obtained.

The recently proposed (Phys. Rev. A90 (2014), 062121 and Phys. Rev. A91 (2015), 052110) group theoretical approach to the problem of breaking the Bell inequalities is applied to $S_4$ group. The Bell inequalities based on the choice of…

We resolve a conjecture of Kalai asserting that the $g_2$-number of any simplicial complex $\Delta$ that represents a connected normal pseudomanifold of dimension $d\geq 3$ is at least as large as ${d+2 \choose 2}m(\Delta)$, where…

This is an expostion of various aspects of amenability and paradoxical decompositions for groups, group actions and metric spaces. First, we review the formalism of pseudogroups, which is well adapted to stating the alternative of Tarski,…

We prove that if the $n$th $\ell^2$-Betti number of a group is non-zero then its $n$th BNSR invariant over $\mathbb{Q}$ is empty, under suitable finiteness conditions. We apply this to answer questions of Friedl--Vidussi and Llosa…

For a smooth $k$-dimensional submanifold $\Sigma$ of a $d$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold $M$, we extend the $L^p(\Sigma)$ restriction bounds of Burq-G\'erard-Tzvetkov -- originally proved for individual Laplace--Beltrami…

If a (possibly finite) compact Lie group acts effectively, locally linearly, and homologically trivially on a closed, simply-connected four-manifold with second Betti number at least three, then it must be isomorphic to a subgroup of S^1 x…

In this article we discuss cohomological obstructions to two kinds of group stability. In the first part, we show that residually finite groups $\Gamma$ which arise as fundamental groups of compact Riemannian manifolds with strictly…
