We provide state-dependent error bounds for strongly continuous unitary representations of connected Lie groups. That is, we bound the difference of two unitaries applied to a state in terms of the energy with respect to a reference…

A simple Almost-Riemannian Structure on a Lie group G is defined by a linear vector field (that is an infinitesimal automorphism) and dim(G) -- 1 left-invariant ones. It is first proven that two different ARSs are isometric if and only if…

For a metric space $X$ we study metrics on the two copies of $X$. We define composition of such metrics and show that the equivalence classes of metrics are a semigroup $M(X)$ Our main result is that $M(X)$ is an inverse semigroup,…

We establish new results and introduce new methods in the theory of measurable orbit equivalence, using bounded cohomology of group representations. Our rigidity statements hold for a wide (uncountable) class of groups arising from negative…

Based on the work of Adams and Stuck as well as on the work of Zeghib, we classify the Lie groups which can act isometrically and locally effectively on Lorentzian manifolds of finite volume. In the case that the corresponding Lie algebra…

There is a standard "word length" metric canonically associated to any set of generators for a group. In particular, for any integers a and b greater than 1, the additive group of integers has generating sets {a^i}_{i=0}^{\infty} and…

This paper presents some new Lie groups preserving fixed subspaces of geometric algebras (or Clifford algebras) under the twisted adjoint representation. We consider the cases of subspaces of fixed grades and subspaces determined by the…

A discrete group with word-length (G,L) is B-isocohomological for a bounding classes B if the comparison map from B-bounded cohomology to ordinary cohomology (with complex coefficients) is an isomorphism; it is strongly B-isocohomological…

Deterministic automata have been traditionally studied through the point of view of language equivalence, but another perspective is given by the canonical notion of shortest-distinguishing-word distance quantifying the of states.…

A Lie group G has many left invariant metrics having drastically different curvature properties. If we regard G as a flat and globalizable absolute parallelism as in [O1], then G has a canonical metric. We study some surprising consequences…

Sixty years ago, S. B. Myers and N. E. Steenrod ({\it Ann. of Math.} {\bf 40} (1939), 400-416) showed that the isometry group of a Riemannian manifold without boundary has a structure of Lie group. Recently A. V. Bagaev and N. I. Zhukova…

In this article, we present a fresh perspective on language, combining ideas from various sources, but mixed in a new synthesis. As in the minimalist program, the question is whether we can formulate an elegant formalism, a universal…

We construct a universal action of a countable locally finite group (the Hall's group) on a separable metric space by isometries. This single action contains all actions of all countable locally finite groups on all separable metric spaces…

Permutations on a set, endowed with function composition, build a group called a symmetric group. In addition to their algebraic structure, symmetric groups have two metrics that are of particular interest to us here: the Cayley distance…

This work generalizes the results of an earlier paper by the second author, from Randers metrics to $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics. Let $F$ be an $(\alpha,\beta)$-metric which is defined by a left invariant vector field and a left invariant…

The following paper presents a method of comparing two sets of vectors. The method can be applied in all tasks, where it is necessary to measure the closeness of two objects presented as sets of vectors. It may be applicable when we compare…

This note is concerned with the geometric classification of connected Lie groups of dimension three or less, endowed with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. On the one hand, assembling results from the literature, we give a review of the…

Large Language Models (LLMs) do not differentially represent numbers, which are pervasive in text. In contrast, neuroscience research has identified distinct neural representations for numbers and words. In this work, we investigate how…

We prove sharp geometric rigidity estimates for isometries on Heisenberg groups. Our main result asserts that every $(1+\varepsilon)$-quasi-isometry on a John domain of the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$, $n>1$, is close to some isometry…

The Linearization Theorem for proper Lie groupoids organizes and generalizes several results for classic geometries. Despite the various approaches and recent works on the subject, the problem of understanding invariant linearization…
