We introduce and study the space of \emph{subset currents} on the free group $F_N$. A subset current on $F_N$ is a positive $F_N$-invariant locally finite Borel measure on the space $\mathfrak C_N$ of all closed subsets of $\partial F_N$…

This paper, which is the second of a series of three papers, studies dynamical properties of elements of $\mathrm{Out}(F_{\tt n})$, the outer automorphism group of a nonabelian free group $F_{\tt n}$. We prove that, for every exponentially…

In this paper we define currents relative to a free factor system. We prove that a fully irreducible outer automorphism relative to a free factor system acts with uniform north-south dynamics on a subspace of the space of projective…

Suppose $G$ is a free product $G = A_1 * A_2* \cdots * A_k * F_N$, where each of the groups $A_i$ is torsion-free and $F_N$ is a free group of rank $N$. Let $\mathcal{O}$ be the deformation space associated to this free product…

In this paper we study a sub-Finsler geometric problem on the free-nilpotent group of rank 2 and step 3. Such a group is also called Cartan group and has a natural structure of Carnot group, which we metrize considering the $\ell_\infty$…

By gauging a higher-moment polynomial degree global symmetry and a discrete charge conjugation (i.e., particle-hole) symmetry coupled to matter fields (two symmetries mutually non-commutative), we derive a new class of higher-rank tensor…

We establish new strong lower bounds on the (subnormal) subgroup growth of a large class of groups. This includes the fundamental groups of all finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds and all (free non-abelian)-by-cyclic groups. The lower…

Let $\Sigma$ be a closed orientable hyperbolic surface. We introduce the notion of a \textit{geodesic current with corners} on $\Sigma$, which behaves like a geodesic current away from certain singularities (the "corners"). We topologize…

Persistent currents in disordered mesoscopic rings threaded by a magnetic flux are calculated using exact diagonalization methods in the one-dimensional (1D) case and self-consistent Hartree-Fock treatments for two dimensional (2D) systems.…

Given a graph $\Gamma$ and a number $n$, the associated $n^{th}$ graph braid group $B_n(\Gamma)$ is the fundamental group of the unordered configuration space of $n$ points on $\Gamma$. \'{S}wi\k{a}tkowski showed that for a given $\Gamma$…

This is the second in a series of four papers (with research announcement posted on this arXiv) that together develop a decomposition theory for subgroups of Out(F_n). In this paper we relativize the "Kolchin-type theorem" from the work of…

An extended search for anomaly free matter coupled $N=(1,0)$ supergravity in six dimension is carried out by two different methods which we refer to as the graphical and rank methods. In the graphical method the anomaly free models are…

We present a normal form for outer automorphisms $\phi$ of a non-abelian free group $F_N$ which grow quadratically (measured through the maximal growth of conjugacy classes in $F_N$ under iteration of $\phi$). In analogy to the known normal…

Two-dimensional topological field theories possessing a non-abelian current symmetry are constructed. The topological conformal algebra of these models is analysed. It differs from the one obtained by twisting the $N=2$ superconformal…

In the 1970s Stallings showed that one could learn a great deal about free groups and their automorphisms by viewing the free groups as fundamental groups of graphs and modeling their automorphisms as homotopy equivalences of graphs.…

We analyse the possibility of the appearance of spontaneous currents in proximated superconducting/normal metal (S/N) heterostructure when Cooper pairs penetrate into the normal metal from the superconductor. In particular, we calculate the…

We show that for every non-elementary hyperbolic group the Bowen-Margulis current associated with a strongly hyperbolic metric forms a unique group-invariant Radon measure class of maximal Hausdorff dimension on the boundary square.…

We observe that in many F-theory models, tuning a specific gauge group $G$ and matter content $M$ under certain circumstances leads to an automatic enhancement to a larger gauge group $G' \supset G$ and matter content $M' \supset M$. We…

We describe a general construction of irreducible unitary representations of the group of currents with values in the semidirect product of a locally compact subgroup $P_0$ and a one-parameter group ${\mathbb R {}}^*_+=\{r:r>0\}$ of…

In this work, we generalize the non-geometrical construction of gauge theories, due to S. Deser, to a noncommutative setting. We show that in a free theory, along with the usual local N\"{o}ther current, there is another conserved current,…
