The H-type deviation, $\delta({\mathbb G})$, of a step two Carnot group ${\mathbb G}$ quantifies the extent to which ${\mathbb G}$ deviates from the geometrically and algebraically tractable class of Heisenberg-type (H-type) groups. In an…

In the present paper we study the rigidity of 2-step Carnot groups, or equivalently, of graded 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras. We prove the alternative that depending on bi-dimensions of the algebra, the Lie algebra structure makes it either…

We establish unweighted Hardy-type inequalities on step-two Carnot groups with one-dimensional vertical layer, with explicit lower bounds for the optimal Hardy constant. The approach is based on a quantitative integration-by-parts mechanism…

We show that every graded nilpotent Lie group $G$ of step $r$, equipped with a left invariant metric homogeneous with respect to the dilations induced by the grading, (this includes all Carnot groups with Carnot-Caratheodory metric) is…

In this paper we study various Hardy inequalities in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb H^n$, w.r.t. the Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance $\delta$ from the origin. We firstly show that the optimal constant for the Hardy inequality is strictly…

We prove that if $P,\mathcal{L}$ are finite sets of $\delta$-separated points and lines in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$, the number of $\delta$-incidences between $P$ and $\mathcal{L}$ is no larger than a constant times $$|P|^{2/3}|\mathcal{L}|^{2/3}…

We fix a field $\kk$ of characteristic $p$. For a finite group $G$ denote by $\delta(G)$ and $\sigma(G)$ respectively the minimal number $d$, such that for any finite dimensional representation $V$ of $G$ over $\kk$ and any $v\in…

Let $\mathcal{H}=-\Delta_{\mathbb{H}}+V$ be the Schr\"odinger operator on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$, where $\Delta_{\mathbb{H}}$ is the full laplacian on $\mathbb{H}^n$ and $V$ is a positive smooth potential, bounded below and…

We introduce a special class of nilpotent Lie groups of step 2, that generalizes the so called $H$(eisenberg)-type groups, defined by A. Kaplan in 1980. We change the presence of inner product to an arbitrary scalar product and relate the…

In this Note, we define a class of stratified Lie groups of arbitrary step (that are called ``groups of type $\star$'' throughout the paper), and we prove that, in these groups, sets with constant intrinsic normal are vertical halfspaces.…

In this paper, we consider a smooth connected finite-dimensional manifold $M$, an affine connection $\nabla$ with holonomy group $H^{\nabla}$ and $\Delta$ a smooth completely non integrable distribution. We define the $\Delta$-horizontal…

We initiate the study of quadratic discrepancy for finite point sets on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb H^n$ with respect to upper Ahlfors regular probability measures. For a natural family of test sets given by left translations and…

Let $\mathbb G$ be a step-two nilpotent group of H-type with Lie algebra $\mathfrak G=V\oplus \mathfrak t$. We define a class of vector fields $X=\{X_j\}$ on $\mathbb G$ depending on a real parameter $k\ge 1$, and we consider the…

In the Heisenberg group framework, we study rigidity properties for stable solutions of $(-\Delta_H)^s v = f(v)$ in $H$, $s \in (0,1)$. We obtain a Poincar\'e type inequality in connection with a degenerate elliptic equation in $\R^4_+$;…

We develop the theory of lattice point counting on connected and simply connected nilpotent Lie groups of step-two, endowed with the parabolic type dilation and a family of homogeneous norms $ \mathcal{N}_{\alpha,M}(x,…

We prove that the category $\textbf{G-Cat}$ of small categories with $G$-action forms a model of unstable $G$-global homotopy theory for every discrete group $G$, generalizing Schwede's global model structure on $\textbf{Cat}$. As a…

A subset of a Carnot group is said to be precisely monotone if the restriction of its characteristic function to each integral curve of every left-invariant horizontal vector field is monotone. Equivalently, a precisely monotone set is a…

Given a finitely-generated group G, and a finite group \Gamma, Philip Hall defined \delta_\Gamma to be the number of factor groups of G that are isomorphic to \Gamma. We show how to compute the Hall invariants by cohomological and…

Given any compact homogeneous space $H/K$ with $H$ simple, we consider the new space $M=H\times H/\Delta K$, where $\Delta K$ denotes diagonal embedding, and study the existence, classification and stability of $H\times H$-invariant…

Let $G:=G_2(K)$ be a simple algebraic group of type $G_2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $\sigma$ denote a standard Frobenius automorphism of $G$ such that $G_\sigma\cong G_2(q)$ with $q\geq 4$.…
