The Vol-Det Conjecture relates the volume and the determinant of a hyperbolic alternating link in $S^3$. We use exact computations of Mahler measures of two-variable polynomials to prove the Vol-Det Conjecture for many infinite families of…

We are concerned with the Calder\'on problem of determining an unknown conductivity of a body from the associated boundary measurement. We establish a logarithmic type stability estimate in terms of the Hausdorff distance in determining the…

Aimed at geometric applications, we prove the homology cobordism invariance of the $L^2$-betti numbers and $L^2$-signature defects associated to the class of amenable groups lying in Strebel's class $D(R)$, which includes some interesting…

We say that a countable discrete group $\Gamma$ satisfies the invariant von Neumann subalgebras rigidity (ISR) property if every $\Gamma$- invariant von Neumann subalgebra $\mathcal{M}$ in $L(\Gamma)$ is of the form $L(\Lambda)$ for some…

The main result of this work is the proof of the boundedness of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup $ \{T_t \}_{t\geq 0} $ in $ {\mathbb R}^d $ on Gaussian variable Lebesgue spaces under a condition of regularity on $p(\cdot)$ following…

We study singular integral operators induced by $3$-dimensional Calder\'on-Zygmund kernels in the Heisenberg group. We show that if such an operator is $L^{2}$ bounded on vertical planes, with uniform constants, then it is also $L^{2}$…

Lueders theorem states that two observables commute if measuring one of them does not disturb the measurement outcomes of the other. We study measurements which are described by continuous positive operator-valued measurements (or POVMs)…

Let $\Gamma\subseteq PSL(2,{\bf R})$ be a finite volume Fuchsian group. The hyperbolic circle problem is the estimation of the number of elements of the $\Gamma$-orbit of $z$ in a hyperbolic circle around $w$ of radius $R$, where $z$ and…

For a torsion free Kleinian group $\Gamma$ without parabolics, we consider the decomposition of the limit set $L(\Gamma)$ into conical and ending limit sets and compare the Patterson-Sullivan measure with the harmonic measure on $L(\Gamma)$…

We give a new upper bound on the stable commutator length of Dehn twists in hyperelliptic mapping class groups, and determine the stable commutator length of some elements. We also calculate values and the defects of homogeneous…

We show that a PSL(2;R)-representation of a Fuchsian group induces the asymptotics of the Reidemeister torsion for the Seifert manifold corresponding to the euler class of the PSL(2;R)-representation. We also show that the limit of leading…

Kazhdan constants of discrete groups are hard to compute and the actual constants are known only for several classes of groups. By solving a semidefinite programming problem by a computer, we obtain a lower bound of the Kazhdan constant of…

E. Breuillard showed that finite subsets $F$ of matrices in $GL_d(\overline{\mathbb{Q}})$ generating non-virtually solvable groups have normalized height $\widehat{h}(F) \ge \epsilon_d$, for some positive $\epsilon_d >0$. The normalized…

It is well known that the Fourier--Bohr coefficients of regular model sets exist and are uniformly converging, volume-averaged exponential sums. Several proofs for this statement are known, all of which use fairly abstract machinery. For…

We show an invariance result for the L2-torsion of groups under uniform measure equivalence provided a measure-theoretic version of the determinant conjecture holds. The measure-theoretic determinant conjecture is discussed and, for…

Exploiting a construction of rigidity sequences for weakly mixing dynamical systems by Fayad and Thouvenot, we show that for every integers $p_{1},\dots,p_{r}$ there exists a continuous probability measure $\mu $ on the unit circle…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb{Z}$ that is not a Dirac mass and that has finite support. We prove that if the coefficients of a monic polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of degree $n$ are chosen independently at random…

We construct finitely generated simple torsion-free groups with strong homological control. Our main result is that every subset of $\mathbb{N} \cup \{\infty\}$, with some obvious exceptions, can be realized as the set of dimensions of…

We show that the distribution of the values of Fekete polynomials $F_p$ on the unit circle is governed, as $p\to\infty$, by an explicit limiting (non-Gaussian) random point process.This allows us to prove that the Mahler measure of $F_p$…

We show that the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup associated with a general Poisson random measure is hypercontractive, whenever it is restricted to non-increasing mappings on configuration spaces. We deduce from this result some versions of…
