Let $G$ be a connected reductive group defined over $\mathbb F_q$. Fix an integer $M\geq 2$, and consider the power map $x\mapsto x^M$ on $G$. We denote the image of $G(\mathbb F_q)$ under this map by $G(\mathbb F_q)^M$ and estimate what…
For a field $F$ and a given integer $n>1$, Goncharov has given a complex $\Gamma_F(n)$ which he calls motivic and which he expects to rationally compute the weight $n$ motivic cohomology of $\text{Spec }F$, and hence its algebraic…
Motivated by the study of trilinear forms for complex representations, we investigate the space of $G$-invariant linear forms on tensor products of irreducible admissible representations of $G = \mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{Q}_p)$ over…
We prove some unique prime factorization results for tensor products of type $II_1$ factors of the form $\Gamma_q(\mathbb{C}, S \otimes H)$ arising from symmetric independent copies with sub-exponential dimensions of the spaces $D_k(S)$ and…
We describe birational representations of discrete groups generated by involutions, having their origin in the theory of exactly solvable vertex-models in lattice statistical mechanics. These involutions correspond respectively to two kinds…
Fixing a subgroup $\Gamma$ in a group $G$, the full commensurability growth function assigns to each $n$ the cardinality of the set of subgroups $\Delta$ of $G$ with $[\Gamma: \Gamma \cap \Delta][\Delta : \Gamma \cap \Delta] \leq n$. For…
In this paper, we construct a combinatorial algebra of partial isomorphisms that gives rise to a "projective limit" of the centers of the group algebras C[GL(n,Fq)]. It allows us to prove a GL(n,Fq)-analogue of an old theorem of Farahat and…
We prove two congruences for the coefficients of power series expansions in t of modular forms where t is a modular function. As a result, we settle two recent conjectures of Chan, Cooper and Sica. Additionally, we provide a table of…
Let $r_Q(n)$ be the representation number of a nonnegative integer $n$ by the quaternary quadratic form $Q=x_1^2+2x_2^2+x_3^2+x_4^2+x_1x_3+x_1x_4+x_2x_4$. We first prove the identity $r_Q(p^2n)=r_Q(p^2)r_Q(n)/r_Q(1)$ for any prime $p$…
We provide the first example of a finitely presented, and the first example of a simple, group of non-uniform exponential growth. The example is given by Thompson's group V.
Answering a question of Geoff Robinson, we compute the large n limiting proportion of i(n,q)/q^[n^2/2], where i(n,q) denotes the number of involutions in GL(n,q). We give similar results for the finite unitary, symplectic, and orthogonal…
We give combinatorial models for complex, smooth, non-spherical, generic, irreducible representations of the group G=PGL(2,F), where F is a non-archimedean locally compact field. They use the graphs X_k lying above the tree of G, introduced…
Recently, Chan and Wang (Fractional powers of the generating function for the partition function. Acta Arith. 187(1), 59--80 (2019)) studied the fractional powers of the generating function for the partition function and found several…
We prove that the groups PSL(r,q^d) can be realized F_q(T)-regularly as Galois groups over the purely transcendental field F_q(T)(t_1,...,t_{r-1}) if r is even and r/2 is coprime to q^d-1. The method is to use twisted moduli schemes of…
Let $f$ be a newform of weight $2$ on $\Gamma_0(N)$ with Fourier $q$-expansion $f(q)=q+\sum_{n\geq 2} a_n q^n$, where $\Gamma_0(N)$ denotes the group of invertible matrices with integer coefficients, upper triangular mod $N$. Let $p$ be a…
We study the Green function gr_\Gamma\ for the Laplace operator on the quotient of the hyperbolic plane by a cofinite Fuchsian group \Gamma. We use a limiting procedure, starting from the resolvent kernel, and lattice point estimates for…
Let $U$ be an algebraic subgroup of the group of $n\times n$ upper-triangular matrices with units on the diagonal over a finite field of large enough characteristic, and $\mathfrak{n}$ be the Lie algebra of $U$. The main tool in…
Let $q$ be a prime power, and let $r=nk+1$ be a prime such that $r\nmid q$, where $n$ and $k$ are positive integers. Under a simple condition on $q$, $r$ and $k$, a Gauss period of type $(n,k)$ is a normal element of $\Bbb F_{q^n}$ over…
We give a survey of several models of irreducible complementary series representations and their limits, special representations, for the groups SU(n,1) and SO(n,1), including new ones. These groups, whose geometrical meaning is well known,…
We are dealing in this work with such formal and conceptual extensions of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics (QM) which contain QM with its standard formalism and interpretation as a subtheory. QM is here primarily equivalently reformulated…
