Our goal is to find classes of convolution semigroups on Lie groups $G$ that give rise to interesting processes in symmetric spaces $G/K$. The $K$-bi-invariant convolution semigroups are a well-studied example. An appealing direction for…
Given a finite set of points $S\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, a $k$-set of $S$ is a subset $A \subset S$ of size $k$ which can be strictly separated from $S \setminus A $ by a hyperplane. Similarly, a $k$-facet of a point set $S$ in general position…
Let $G$ be a permutation group of degree $n$ and let $s(G)$ denote the number of set-orbits of $G$. We determine $\inf(\frac {\log_2 s(G)} n)$ over all groups $G$ that satisfy certain restrictions on composition factors (i.e. $Alt(k), k >…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $H$ a normal subgroup of prime index $p$. Let $V$ be an irreducible ${\mathbb F}H$-module and $U$ a quotient of the induced ${\mathbb F}G$-module $V\kern-3pt\uparrow$. We describe the structure of $U$, which is…
We prove the semisimplicity conjecture for A-motives over finitely generated fields K. This conjecture states that the rational Tate modules V_p(M) of a semisimple A-motive M are semisimple as representations of the absolute Galois group of…
In this paper we answer a question of Gabriel Navarro about orbit sizes of a finite linear group H acting completely reducibly on a vector space V: if the orbits containing the vectors a and b have coprime lengths m and n, we prove that the…
For odd primes $p$, we let $K_p:=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_p)$ be the $p$th cyclotomic field and let $\omega$ denote its Teichmuller character. For $\alpha>1/2$, we say that an odd prime $p$ is partially regular if the eigenspaces of the $p$-Sylow…
Let G be a locally compact Hausdorff group in which every element is of finite order, and let P(G) denote the class of all regular probability measures on G. In this note, it is observed that a characterization of algebraically regular…
For cyclic totally real number fields $K$ with odd prime degree $n$, odd class number, $2$ inert, and the property that every totally positive unit is a square, the density of rational primes $p$ that satisfy the spin relation…
In this paper we initiate the study of $\aleph_0$-categorical semigroups, where a countable semigroup $S$ is $\aleph_0$-categorical if, for any natural number $n$, the action of its group of automorphisms Aut $S$ on $S^n$ has only finitely…
Let K be a complete field of unequal characteristics $(0,p)$. The aim of this paper is to describe the the semi-stable models for covers $\bold P^1_K@>>>\bold P^1_K$ of degree p, unramified outside $r\leq p$ points and totally ramified…
Let G be a simply connected semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0 and let V be a rational simple G-module of finite dimension. If G/H \subset P(V) is a spherical orbit and if X is its closure,…
We propose a conjecture on the $p$-adic nowhere density of the Hecke orbit of subvarieties of Hodge type Shimura varieties. By investigating the monodromy of $p$-adic Galois representations associated with points on such Shimura varieties,…
Let $\psi: A \to F\{\tau\}$ be a Drinfeld $A$-module over $F$ of rank 2 and without complex multiplication, where $A = {\mathbb{F}}_q[T]$, $F = {\mathbb{F}}_q(T)$, and $q$ is an odd prime power. For a prime $\mathfrak{p} = p A$ of $A$ of…
Let $p$ be a prime number, and let $S$ be the numerical semigroup generated by the prime numbers not less than $p$. We compare the orders of magnitude of some invariants of $S$ with each other, e. g., the biggest atom $u$ of $S$ with $p$…
In this paper we study finite semiprimitive permutation groups, that is, groups in which each normal subgroup is transitive or semiregular. We give bounds on the order, base size, minimal degree, fixity, and chief length of an arbitrary…
Let $S\subseteq \mathbb N^p$ be a semigroup, any $P\subseteq S$ is an ideal of $S$ if $P+S\subseteq P$, and an $I(S)$-semigroup is the affine semigroup $P\cup \{0\}$, with $P$ an ideal of $S$. We characterise the $I(S)$-semigroups and the…
Let $X/K$ be a smooth projective variety defined over a number field, and let $f:X\to{X}$ be a morphism defined over $K$. We formulate a number of statements of varying strengths asserting, roughly, that if there is at least one point…
Let $k$ be a field with characteristic different from $2$. In this paper, we describe the $k$-rational orbit spaces in some irreducible prehomogeneous vector spaces $(G,V)$ over $k$, where $G$ is a connected reductive algebraic group…
We obtain an analog of the prime number theorem for a class of branched covering maps on the $2$-sphere $S^2$ called expanding Thurston maps, which are topological models of some non-uniformly expanding rational maps without any smoothness…
