In this article, we generalise a result of Pottmeyer from the multiplicative group of the algebraic numbers to almost split semiabelian varieties defined over number fields. This concerns a consequence of R\'emond's generalisation of…

We produce a short and elementary algorithm to compute an upper bound for the canonical dimension of a spit semisimple linear algebraic group. Using this algorithm we confirm previously known bounds by Karpenko and Devyatov as well as we…

The height gap theorem states that the finite subsets $F$ of matrices generating non-virtually solvable groups have normalized height $\widehat{h}(F)$ bounded below by a constant. It was first proved by Breuillard and another proof was…

We study the limiting distribution of dense orbits of a lattice subgroup $\Gamma\le \text{SL}(m+1,\mathbb{R})$ acting on $H\backslash\text{SL}(m+1,\mathbb{R})$, with respect to a filtration of growing norm balls. The novelty of our work is…

Let $G$ be a unipotent group and $\mathcal F=\{F_t:t\in (0,\infty)\}$ a family of subsets of $G$, with $\mathcal F$ definable in an o-minimal expansion of the real field. Given a lattice $\Gamma\subseteq G$, we study the possible Hausdorff…

Let G be a finitely generated group and M_n(G) the number of its normal subgroup subgroups of index at most n. For linear groups G we show that M_n(G) can grow polynomially in n only if the semisimple part of the Zariski closure of G has…

Let $G$ be a group that is relatively hyperbolic with respect to a collection of subgroups $\{H_{\lambda}\}_{\lambda\in \Lambda}$. Suppose that $G$ is given by a finite relative presentation $\mathcal{P}$ with respect to this collection. We…

Let $\gg$ be a complex reductive Lie algebra and $\kk\subset\gg$ be any reductive in $\gg$ subalgebra. We call a $(\gg,\kk)$-module $M$ bounded if the $\kk$-multiplicities of $M$ are uniformly bounded. In this paper we initiate a general…

For the p-adic group G=SL (2) , we present results of the computations of the sums of the Bernstein projectors of a given depth. Motivation for the computations is based on a conversation with Roger Howe in August 2013. The computations are…

In this paper we give necessary and sufficient conditions for discreteness of a group generated by a hyperbolic element and an elliptic one of odd order. This completes the classification of discrete groups with non-$\pi$-loxodromic…

Let SL(2, $\mathbb H$) be the group of $2 \times 2$ quaternionic matrices $A=\begin{pmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{pmatrix}$ with quaternionic determinant $\det A=|ad-aca^{-1} b|=1$. This group acts by the orientation-preserving isometries of…

It is well known that the set of values of a lower central word in a group $G$ need not be a subgroup. For a fixed lower central word $\gamma_r$ and for $p\ge 5$, Guralnick showed that if $G$ is a finite $p$-group such that the verbal…

In the paper (Osaka J. Math. {\bf 46}: 403-409, 2009), Yang conjectured that a non-elementary subgroup $G$ of $SL(2, \bc)$ containing elliptic elements is discrete if for each elliptic element $g\in G$ the group $< f, g >$ is discrete,…
