The first main result is a topological rigidity theorem for complete immersed hypersurfaces of spherical space forms which extends similar results due to do Carmo/Warner, Wang/Xia and Longa/Ripoll. Under certain sharp conditions on the…
We call the dimension data $\mathscr{D}_{H_{1}}$ and $\mathscr{D}_{H_{2}}$ of two closed subgroups $H_{1}$ and $H_{2}$ of a given compact Lie group $G$ {\it almost equal} if $\mathscr{D}_{H_{1}}(\rho)=\mathscr{D}_{H_{2}}(\rho)$ for all but…
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 $(\tau, V_{\tau})$ be a finite dimensional representation of a maximal compact subgroup $K$ of a connected non-compact semisimple Lie group $G$, and let $\Gamma$ be a uniform torsion-free lattice in $G$. We obtain an infinitesimal…
Let F be either R or C. Consider the standard embedding GL(n,F)<GL(n+1,F) and the action of GL(n,F) on GL(n+1,F) by conjugation. In this paper we show that any GL(n,F)-invariant distribution on GL(n+1,F) is invariant with respect to…
We attack a conjecture of J. Rogawski: any cocompact lattice in $S U (2, 1)$ for which the ball quotient $X = B^2 / \Gamma$ satisfies $b_1 (X) = 0$ and $H^{1, 1} (X) \cap H^2 (X, \bbq) \approx \bbq$ is arithmetic. We prove the Archimedian…
Given a connected semisimple Lie group $G$ and an arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$, it is well-known that each irreducible representation $\pi$ of $G$ occurs in the discrete spectrum $L^2_{\text{disc}}(\Gamma\backslash G)$ of…
Let $K$ be an algebraic number field, and $\pi=\otimes\pi_{v}$ an irreducible, automorphic, cuspidal representation of $\GL_{m}(\mathbb{A}_{K})$ with analytic conductor $C(\pi)$. The theorem on analytic strong multiplicity one established…
Let $G$ be the group of complex points of a real semi-simple Lie group whose fundamental rank is equal to 1, e.g. $G= \SL_2 (\C) \times \SL_2 (\C)$ or $\SL_3 (\C)$. Then the fundamental rank of $G$ is $2,$ and according to the conjecture…
We give a simple proof about the topological rigidity of closures of certain sparse unipotent orbits in $G/\Gamma$ where $G=\prod_{i=1}^k\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb R)$ and $\Gamma$ is an irreducible lattice in $G$.
Let $p$ be a prime. In this article, we prove the Smoothness Theorem, which asserts that a $(1,1)$-cyclotomic pair is $(n,1)$-cyclotomic, for all $n \geq 1$. In the particular case of Galois cohomology, the Smoothness Theorem provides a new…
Let $\Sigma_{g}$ be a closed surface of genus $g\geq 2$ and $\Gamma_{g}$ denote the fundamental group of $\Sigma_{g}$. We establish a generalization of Voiculescu's theorem on the asymptotic $*$-freeness of Haar unitary matrices from free…
We show that the group factors of ICC lattices in either SO(n,1) or SU(n,1), n \geq 2, are strongly solid in the sense of Ozawa and Popa. This strengthens a result of Ozawa and Popa showing that these factors do not have Cartan subalgebras.
We analyze the hamiltonian quantization of Chern-Simons theory associated to the universal covering of the Lorentz group SO(3,1). The algebra of observables is generated by finite dimensional spin networks drawn on a punctured topological…
We use bounded cohomology to define a notion of volume of an SO(n,1)-valued representation of a lattice SO(n,1) and, using this tool, we give a complete proof of the volume rigidity theorem of Francaviglia and Klaff in this setting. Our…
The first theorem states that all flat space-time gravitational theories must have a Lagrangian with a first term that is an homogeneous (degree-I) function of the 4-velocity $u^i$, plus a functional of $\eta_{ij}u^i u^j$. The second…
We derive the spin-statistics theorem in both relativistic and non-relativistic first-quantized form, extending considerably the earlier proofs. Our derivation is based on the representation theories of the groups SU (2) and SL(2,C), latter…
Let $G$ be a noncompact real algebraic group and $\G<G$ a lattice. One purpose of this paper is to show that there is an smooth, volume preserving, mixing action of $G$ or $\G$ on a compact manifold which admits a smooth deformation. We…
In this paper we study the Plancherel formula for a new class of homogeneous spaces for real reductive Lie groups; these spaces are fibered over non-Riemannian symmetric spaces, and they exhibit a phenomenon of uniform infinite…
Let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in a connected semisimple Lie group $G$ with trivial center and no compact factors. We introduce a volume invariant for representations of $\Gamma$ into $G$, which generalizes the volume invariant for…
