In this paper we study hyperbolicty of the universal group $U(P)$ of a pregroup $P$. Given a finitely generated group $G$ and a pregroup $P$ such that $G \simeq U(P)$, we provide a particular set of axioms on $P$ which ensure that $G$ is…

In the gravitation n-body Problem, a homothetic orbit is a special solution of the Newton's Equations of motion, in which each body moves along a straight line through the center of mass and forming at any time a central configuration. In…

Using the explicit representations of the Brownian motions on the hyperbolic spaces, we show that their almost sure convergence and the central limit theorems for the radial components as time tends to infinity are easily obtained. We also…

There is a wealth of results in the literature on the thermodynamic formalism for potentials that are, in some sense, "hyperbolic". We show that for a sufficiently regular one-dimensional map satisfying a weak hyperbolicity assumption,…
