We note that a recent result of the second author yields upper bounds for odd-primary homotopy exponents of compact simple Lie groups which are often quite close to the lower bounds obtained from v_1-periodic homotopy theory.
Much of the fascinating numerology surrounding finite reflection groups stems from Solomon's celebrated 1963 theorem describing invariant differential forms. Invariant differential derivations also exhibit interesting numerology over the…
We introduce the notion of volume of the representation variety of a finitely presented discrete group in a compact Lie group using the push-forward measure associated to a map defined by a presentation of the discrete group. We show that…
For a toric log variety with standard coefficients, we show that the minimal log discrepancy at a closed invariant point bounds the Cartier index of a neighbourhood.
Using the link between mod $p$ Galois representations of $\qu$ and mod $p$ modular forms established by Serre's Conjecture, we compute, for every prime $p\leq 1999$, a lower bound for the number of isomorphism classes of continuous Galois…
In the spirit of an earlier result of M\"uller on the Heisenberg group we prove a restriction theorem on a certain class of two step nilpotent Lie groups. Our result extends that of M\"uller also in the framework of the Heisenberg group.
We discuss measures, invariant measures on definable groups, and genericity, often in an NIP (failure of the independence property) environment. We complete the proof of the third author's conjectures relating definably compact groups $G$…
Let G be a group. We say that G has spread r if for any set of distinct elements {x1,..., xr}\subset G there exists an element y\in G with the property that <xi, y>=G for every 0<i<r+1. Few bounds on the spread of finite simple groups are…
Let $G$ be a real connected Lie group with a left invariant metric $d$, $\mathfrak{g}$ its Lie algebra. In this paper we present a set of interesting upper and lower bounds for $|d\exp_{x}(y)|,\ x,y \in \mathfrak{g}$. If $\textrm{ad}_x$ is…
Degree bounds for algebra generators of invariant rings are a topic of longstanding interest in invariant theory. We study the analogous question for field generators for the field of rational invariants of a representation of a finite…
We prove a geometric criterion for the bounded multiplicity property of "small" infinite-dimensional representations of real reductive Lie groupsin both induction and restrictions. Applying the criterion to symmetric pairs, we give a full…
For each left-invariant semi-Riemannian metric $g$ on a Lie group $G$, we introduce the class of bi-Lipschitz Riemannian Clairaut metrics, whose completeness implies the completeness of $g$. When the adjoint representation of $G$ satisfies…
This survey article has two components. The first part gives a gentle introduction to Serre's notion of $G$-complete reducibility, where $G$ is a connected reductive algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field. The second…
We introduce a new class of transitive permutation groups which properly contains the automorphism groups of vertex-transitive graphs and digraphs. We then give a sufficient condition for a quotient of this family to remain in the family,…
For an abelian category and a distinguished object with a graded endomorphism ring a necessary and sufficient criterion is given so that the category is equivalent to the abelian quotient of the category of finitely presented graded modules…
In this paper we study the upper bound of wavefront sets of irreducible admissible representations of connected reductive groups defined over non-Archimedean local fields of characteristic zero. We formulate a new conjecture on the upper…
The first result is the semicontinuity of automorphism groups for the collection of complex two-dimensional bounded pseudoconvex domains with smooth boundary of finite D'Angelo type. The method of proof is new so that it simplifies the…
We derive a curvature-variation formula for a path of left-invariant metrics on a compact Lie group, beginning at a bi-invariant metric. We prove rigidity theorems for paths which remain nonnegatively curved, and we make progress towards a…
We discuss the possibility of very regular subgroups of a Lie group, in presence of an index figure. Further, representations that reduce action to a very regular boundary.
Let H be a subgroup of some locally compact group G. Assume H is approximable by discrete subgroups and G admits neighborhood bases which are "almost-invariant" under conjugation by finite subsets of H. Let $m: G \to \mathbb{C}$ be a…
