Let G be an arithmetic lattice in a semisimple algebraic group over a number field. We show that if G has the congruence subgroup property, then the number of n-dimensional irreducible representations of G grows like n^a, where a is a…
We investigate the rank gradient and growth of torsion in homology in residually finite groups. As a tool, we introduce a new complexity notion for generating sets, using measured groupoids and combinatorial cost. As an application we prove…
The symmetries described by Pin groups are the result of combining a finite number of discrete reflections in (hyper)planes. The current work shows how an analysis using geometric algebra provides a picture complementary to that of the…
Let $G$ be a right-angled Artin group with defining graph $\Gamma$ and let $H$ be a finitely generated group quasi-isometric to $G(\Gamma)$. We show if $G$ satisfies (1) its outer automorphism group is finite; (2) $\Gamma$ does not have…
Let L be a lattice admitting a left-modular chain of length r, not necessarily maximal. We show that if either L is graded or the chain is modular, then the (r-2)-skeleton of L is vertex-decomposable (hence shellable). This proves a…
Noether, Fleischmann and Fogarty proved that if the characteristic of the underlying field does not divide the order $|G|$ of a finite group $G$, then the polynomial invariants of $G$ are generated by polynomials of degrees at most $|G|$.…
In this article we study combinatorial non-positive curvature aspects of various simplicial complexes with natural $\widetilde A_n$ shaped simplicies, including Euclidean buildings of type $\widetilde A_n$ and Cayley graphs of Garside…
A finite group $G$ is said to have the nilpotent decomposition property (ND) if for every nilpotent element $\alpha$ of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}[G]$ one has that $\alpha e$ also belong to $\mathbb{Z}[G]$, for every primitive…
We study reductive subgroups $H$ of a reductive linear algebraic group $G$ -- possibly non-connected -- such that $H$ contains a regular unipotent element of $G$. We show that under suitable hypotheses, such subgroups are $G$-irreducible in…
Let I be a dense linear order with a left endpoint but no right endpoint. We consider the lattice L(I) of finite unions of closed intervals of I. This lattice arises naturally in the setting of o-minimality, as these are precisely the…
By an $\ell$-group $G$ we mean a lattice-ordered abelian group. This paper is concerned with the category $\FP$ of finitely presented {\it unital} $\ell$-groups, those $\ell$-groups having a distinguished order-unit $u$. Using the duality…
This paper contains the decomposition matrices for blocks of defect at most $2$ in Category $\mathcal{O}_c(W)$ of the rational Cherednik algebra when $W=E_8$ or $F_4$ with equal parameters $c=1/d$, $d>2$ a regular number of $W$. A corollary…
We give a new proof of the fact that any finite quadratic module can be decomposed into indecomposable ones. For any indecomposable finite quadratic module, we construct a lattice, and a positive definite lattice, both of which are of the…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $\Gamma$ be an infinite discrete group. The algebraic $K$-theory of the group ring $R[\Gamma]$ is an important object of computation in geometric topology and number theory. When the group ring is…
A module is called absolutely indecomposable if it is directly indecomposable in every generic extension of the universe. We want to show the existence of large abelian groups that are absolutely indecomposable. This will follow from a more…
Let L be a nonunimodular definite lattice. Using a theorem of Elkies we show that whether L embeds in the standard definite lattice of the same rank is completely determined by a collection of lattice correction terms, one for each…
We construct a class of Garside groupoid structures on the pure braid groups, one for each function (called labelling) from the punctures to the integers greater than 1. The object set of the groupoid is the set of ball decompositions of…
Given partitions $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$, the short exact sequences $0\to N_\alpha \to N_\beta \to N_\gamma \to 0$ of nilpotent linear operators of Jordan types $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$, respectively, define a constructible subset…
The first aim of this work is to characterize when the lattice of all submodules of a module is a direct product of two lattices. In particular, which decompositions of a module $M$ produce these decompositions: the \emph{lattice…
Given a group $G$ with bounded torsion that acts properly on a systolic complex, we show that every solvable subgroup of $G$ is finitely generated and virtually abelian of rank at most $2$. In particular this gives a new proof of the above…
