Certain topological properties of the group $\J(\k)$ of all formal one-variable power series with coefficients in a topological unitary ring $\k$ are considered. We show, in particular, that in the case when $\k=\Q$ the group $\J(\Q)$ has…
In aperiodic order, non-periodic but "ordered" objects such as tilings, Delone sets, functions and measures are investigated. In this article we depict the common structure of these objects by using the general framework of abstract pattern…
In this article, we define amorphic complexity for actions of locally compact $\sigma$-compact amenable groups on compact metric spaces. Amorphic complexity, originally introduced for $\mathbb Z$-actions, is a topological invariant which…
We introduce a topological property for finitely generated groups called stackable that implies the existence of an inductive procedure for constructing van Kampen diagrams with respect to a particular finite presentation. We also define…
In this document we achieve exact and asymptotic enumeration of words, compositions over a finite group, and/or integer compositions characterized by local restrictions and, separately, subsequence pattern avoidance. We also count…
This article focuses on the optimization of a complex system which is composed of several subsystems. On the one hand, these subsystems are subject to multiple objectives, local constraints as well as local variables, and they are…
The additivity with respect to exact sequences is notoriously a fundamental property of the algebraic entropy of group endomorphisms. It was proved for abelian groups by deeply exploiting their structure. On the other hand, a solvable…
Let $G$ be a finitely presented group. A new complexity called \textit{Karoubi-Weibel complexity} or \textit{covering type}, is defined for $G$. The construction is inspired by recent work of Karoubi and Weibel \cite{KW}, initially applied…
The present paper studies the structure of characteristic varieties of fundamental groups of graph manifolds. As a consequence, a simple proof of Papadima's question is provided on the characterization of algebraic links that have…
A method is provided for computing an upper bound of the complexity of a module over a local ring, in terms of vanishing of certain cohomology modules. We then specialize to complete intersections, which are precisely the rings over which…
The purpose of this survey is to describe how locally compact groups can be studied as geometric objects. We will emphasize the main ideas and skip or just sketch most proofs, often referring the reader to our much more detailed book…
We prove that the monodromy of an irreducible cohomologically complex rigid local system with finite determinant and quasi-unipotent local monodromies at infinity on a smooth quasiprojective complex variety $X$ is integral. This answers…
The topological properties of a set have a strong impact on its computability properties. A striking illustration of this idea is given by spheres and closed manifolds: if a set $X$ is homeomorphic to a sphere or a closed manifold, then any…
A class of topological spaces is topologically rigid if any two spaces with the same fundamental group are also homeomorphic. Topological rigidity, in addition to its intrinsic interest, has been useful for solving abstract commensurability…
We study universal groups for right-angled buildings. Inspired by Simon Smith's work on universal groups for trees, we explicitly allow local groups that are not necessarily finite nor transitive. We discuss various topological and…
We review some basic theorems on integrability of Hamiltonian systems, namely the Liouville-Arnold theorem on complete integrability, the Nekhoroshev theorem on partial integrability and the Mishchenko-Fomenko theorem on noncommutative…
This survey describes some recent work, by the authors and others, on the existence of algebraic fibrations of group extensions, as well as the finiteness properties of their algebraic fibers, in the realm of both abstract and pro-$p$…
In all forms of the local Langlands program the abelian category of smooth representations of p-adic groups G in vector spaces over a field k plays a central role. Of particular interest are its finiteness properties. If the field k has…
In this paper we consider the existence of dense embeddings of Limit groups in locally compact groups generalizing earlier work of Breuillard, Gelander, Souto and Storm [GBSS] where surface groups were considered. Our main results are…
Let R be a locally finitely generated algebra over a discrete valuation ring V of mixed characteristic. For any of the homological properties, the Direct Summand Theorem, the Monomial Theorem, the Improved New Intersection Theorem, the…
