In this continuation of \cite{BM}, we prove the following: Let $\Gamma\subset \text{SL}(2,{\mathbb C})$ be a cocompact lattice, and let $\rho: \Gamma \rightarrow \text{GL}(r,{\mathbb C})$ be an irreducible representation. Then the…
Let $G$ be an LCA group, $H$ a closed subgroup, $\varGamma$ the dual group of $G$ and $\mu$ be a regular finite non-negative Borel measure on $\varGamma$. We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for the density of the set of…
Let $\Gamma$ be the fundamental group of a closed orientable surface of genus at least two. Consider the composition of a uniformly random element of $\mathrm{Hom}(\Gamma,S_n)$ with the $(n-1)$-dimensional irreducible representation of…
Let $\Gamma$ be a subgroup of $PSL(2,R)$ generated by three parabolic transformations. The main goal of this paper is to present an algorithm to determine whether or not $\Gamma$ is discrete. Historically discreteness algorithms have been…
While lattices in semi-simple Lie groups are studied very well, only little is known about discrete subgroups of infinite covolume. The main class of examples are Schottky groups. Here we investigate some new examples. We consider subgroups…
We examine isothermal dark matter halos in hydrostatic equilibrium with a cosmological constant Lambda =Omega_\Lambda rho_{crit}c^2, where Omega_\Lambda=0.7, and rho_{crit} is the present value of the critical density with h=0.65. The…
For $\textrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})$ ($n\geq3$), $\textrm{SO}(n+1,n)$ ($n\geq2$), $\textrm{Sp}(2n,\mathbb{R})$ ($n\geq2$) and for the adjoint real split form of the exceptional group $\textrm{G}_2$, we exhibit non-uniform lattices in which we…
Let G be a digraph (without parallel edges) such that every directed cycle has length at least four; let $\beta(G)$ denote the size of the smallest subset X in E(G) such that $G\X$ has no directed cycles, and let $\gamma(G)$ be the number…
Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group of rank $1$ and $\Gamma$ be a torsion free discrete subgroup of $G$. We show that in $G/\Gamma$, given $\epsilon>0$, any trajectory of a unipotent flow remains in the set of points with injectivity radius…
We present spectroscopic confirmation of an ultra-massive galaxy (UMG) with $\log(M_\star/M_\odot) = 10.98 \pm 0.07$ at $z_\mathrm{spec} = 4.8947$ in the Extended Groth Strip (EGS), based on deep observations of Ly$\alpha$ emission with…
We consider extremal problems for subgraphs of pseudorandom graphs. For graphs $F$ and $\Gamma$ the generalized Tur\'an density $\pi_F(\Gamma)$ denotes the density of a maximum subgraph of $\Gamma$, which contains no copy of~$F$. Extending…
The orbital structure of triaxial models with weak central density cusps, $\rho\propto r^{-\gamma}, gamma < 1$, is investigated. The stability of the $x$- (long-) axis orbit -- and hence the existence of box orbits -- depends sensitively on…
Let $K$ be a henselian valued field with ${\cal O}_K$ its valuation ring, $\Gamma$ its value group, and $\boldsymbol{k}$ its residue field. We study the definable subsets of ${\cal O}_K$ and algebraic groups definable over ${\cal O}_K$ in…
We investigate analogues of some of the classical results in homogeneous dynamics in non-linear setting. Let $G$ be a closed subgroup of the group of automorphisms of a biregular tree and $\Gamma<G$ a discrete subgroup. For a large class of…
Let $G=$SL$(2,R)\ltimes(R^2)^{\oplus k}$ and let $\Gamma$ be a congruence subgroup of SL$(2,Z)\ltimes(Z^2)^{\oplus k}$. We prove a polynomially effective asymptotic equidistribution result for special types of unipotent orbits in…
Let $M$ be a four-holed sphere and $\Gamma$ the mapping class group of $M$ fixing the boundary $\partial M$. The group $\Gamma$ acts on $M_B(SL(2,C)) = Hom_B^+(pi_1(M),SL(2,C))/SL(2,C)$ which is the space of completely reducible…
A rotating continuum of particles attracted to each other by gravity may be modeled by the Euler-Poisson system. The existence of solutions is a very classical problem. Here it is proven that a curve of solutions exists, parametrized by the…
For a graph $G=(V,E)$, a set $S\subseteq V$ is a dominating set if every vertex in $V-S$ has at least a neighbor in $S$. A dominating set $S$ is a global offensive alliance if for each vertex $v$ in $V-S$ at least half the vertices from the…
We investigate the emergence of spanning structures in sparse pseudo-random $k$-uniform hypergraphs, using the following comparatively weak notion of pseudo-randomness. A $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ on $n$ vertices is called…
The Rankin constant $\gamma_{n,l}$ measures the largest volume of the densest sublattice of rank $l$ of a lattice $\Lambda\in \RR^n$ over all such lattices of rank $n$. The Berg\'e-Martinet constant $\gamma'_{n,l}$ is a variation that takes…
