Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary, non-convex-cocompact Kleinian group acting on $\mathbb{H}^{d}$. We show that the Hausdorff dimension of the sublinearly conical Myrberg limit set of $\Gamma$ is equal to the critical exponent of $\Gamma$.…

We show by explicit estimates that the SubRiemannian distance in a Carnot group of step two is locally semiconcave away from the diagonal if and only if the group does not contain abnormal minimizing curves. Moreover, we prove that local…

We develop the theory of lattice point counting on connected and simply connected nilpotent Lie groups of step-two, endowed with the parabolic type dilation and a family of homogeneous norms $ \mathcal{N}_{\alpha,M}(x,…

It is a folk conjecture that for alpha > 1/2 there is no alpha-Hoelder surface in the subRiemannian Heisenberg group. Namely, it is expected that there is no embedding from an open subset of R^2 into the Heisenberg group that is Hoelder…

This paper is a continuation of the previous work of the first author. We characterize a class of step-two groups introduced in \cite{Li19}, saying GM-groups, via some basic sub-Riemannian geometric properties, including the squared…

We introduce a special class of nilpotent Lie groups of step 2, that generalizes the so called $H$(eisenberg)-type groups, defined by A. Kaplan in 1980. We change the presence of inner product to an arbitrary scalar product and relate the…

We study the horizontally regular curves in the Heisenberg groups $H_n$. We show the fundamental theorem of curves in $H_n$ $(n\geq 2)$ and define the concept of the orders for horizontally regular curves. We also show that the curve…

In this paper we formulate some conjectures in sub-Riemannian geometry concerning a characterisation of the Koranyi-Kaplan ball in a group of Heisenberg type through the existence of a solution to suitably overdetermined problems. We prove…

Let $H$ and $K$ be groups. In this paper we introduce a concept of determinant for automorphisms of $H\times K$ and some concepts of incompatibility for group pairs as a measure of how much $H$ and $K$ are fare from being isomorphic. With…

We prove $L^p$-Hardy inequalities with distance to the boundary for domains in the Heisenberg group ${\mathbb{H}}^n$, $n\geq 1$. Our results are based on a certain geometric condition. This is first implemented for the Euclidean distance in…

We address the type I dichotomy for two-step nilpotent locally compact groups. Invoking work of Baggett-Kleppner, we characterize the closed points of the unitary dual of such a group $G$ purely in terms of the group structure. An algebraic…

In this paper, we consider a smooth connected finite-dimensional manifold $M$, an affine connection $\nabla$ with holonomy group $H^{\nabla}$ and $\Delta$ a smooth completely non integrable distribution. We define the $\Delta$-horizontal…

This paper is devoted to show that the flatness of tangents of $1$-codimensional measures in Carnot Groups implies $C^1_\mathbb{G}$-rectifiability. As applications we prove that measures with $(2n+1)$-density in the Heisenberg groups…

Let $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ be the Heisenberg group and $Q = 2n+2$. For $1 < q < \infty$, $\gamma > 0$ and an exponent function $p(\cdot)$ on $\mathbb{H}^n$, which satisfy log-H\"older conditions, with $0 < p_{-} \leq p_{+} < \infty$, we introduce…

In this review paper, we survey Hardy type inequalities from the point of view of Folland and Stein's homogeneous groups. Particular attention is paid to Hardy type inequalities on stratified groups which give a special class of homogeneous…

In $2020$, Bhargava, Shankar, Taniguchi, Thorne, Tsimerman, and Zhao proved that for a finite extension $K/\mathbb{Q}$ of degree $n\geq 5$, the size of the $2$-torsion class group is bounded by $\#…

We prove a height-estimate (distance from the tangent hyperplane) for $\Lambda$-minima of the perimeter in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group. The estimate is in terms of a power of the excess ($L^2$-mean oscillation of the normal) and its…

It is known that an abelian group $A$ and a $2$-cocycle $c:A \times A \to C$ yield a group ${\mathscr{H}}(A,C,c)$ which we call a Heisenberg group. This group, a central extension of $A$, is the archetype of a class~$2$ nilpotent group. In…

We begin a systematic study of these spaces, initially following along the lines of Eberlein's comprehensive study of the Riemannian case. In particular, we integrate the geodesic equation, discuss the structure of the isometry group, and…

Let $\mathbb G$ be a step-two nilpotent group of H-type with Lie algebra $\mathfrak G=V\oplus \mathfrak t$. We define a class of vector fields $X=\{X_j\}$ on $\mathbb G$ depending on a real parameter $k\ge 1$, and we consider the…
