By examining asymptotic behavior of certain infinite basic ($q$-) hypergeometric sums at roots of unity (that is, at a "$q$-microscopic" level) we prove polynomial congruences for their truncations. The latter reduce to non-trivial…
Let g >= 1 and let Q be a monic, squarefree polynomial of degree 2g + 1 in Z[x]. For an odd prime p not dividing the discriminant of Q, let Z_p(T) denote the zeta function of the hyperelliptic curve of genus g over the finite field F_p…
We study a family of polynomials which are orthogonal with respect to the varying, highly oscillatory complex weight function $e^{ni\lambda z}$ on $[-1,1]$, where $\lambda$ is a positive parameter. This family of polynomials has appeared in…
If $(X,J)$ is an almost complex manifold, then a function $u$ is said to be plurisubharmonic on $X$ if it is upper semi-continuous and its restriction to every local pseudo-holomorphic curve is subharmonic. As in the complex case, it is…
Let $G$ be a semisimple connected Lie group of non-compact type with finite center. Let $K<G$ be a maximal compact subgroup and $P<G$ be a minimal parabolic subgroup. For any pair $(F,x)$, where $F$ is a maximal flat in $G/K$ and $x \in…
It is shown that a flat subgroup, $H$, of the totally disconnected, locally compact group $G$ decomposes into a finite number of subsemigroups on which the scale function is multiplicative. The image, $P$, of a multiplicative semigroup in…
We present a renormalization-group calculation based on model F for the thermal conductivity lambda_T(T,Q) in the presence of a homogeneous heat current Q and gravity. For temperatures below T_lambda we obtain a large but finite thermal…

Let $1 \to K \longrightarrow G \stackrel{\pi}\longrightarrow Q$ be an exact sequence of hyperbolic groups. Let $Q_1 < Q$ be a quasiconvex subgroup and let $G_1=\pi^{-1}(Q_1)$. Under relatively mild conditions (e.g. if $K$ is a closed…
We analyze the behavior of the Euclidean algorithm applied to pairs (g,f) of univariate nonconstant polynomials over a finite field F_q of q elements when the highest-degree polynomial g is fixed. Considering all the elements f of fixed…
If $H$ is a subgroup of a compact group $G$, the probability that a random element of $H$ commutes with a random element of $G$ is denoted by $Pr(H,G)$. Let $\langle g\rangle$ stand for the monothetic subgroup generated by an element $g\in…
The classical Ritt's Theorems state several properties of univariate polynomial decomposition. In this paper we present new counterexamples to Ritt's first theorem, which states the equality of length of decomposition chains of a…
By using Liu's $q$-partial differential equations theory, we prove that if an analytic function in several variables satisfies a system of $q$-partial differential equations, if and only if it can be expanded in terms of homogeneous…
We prove a general representation stability result for polynomial coefficient systems which lets us prove representation stability and secondary homological stability for many families of groups with polynomial coefficients. This gives two…
In the setting of Carnot groups, we prove the $q-$Logarithmic Sobolev inequality for probability measures as a function of the Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance. As an application, we use the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the setting of Carnot…
We prove that random $\mathbb{Z}$-homomorphisms on weakly expanding bipartite graphs exhibit a strong "flatness" phenomenon. Extending prior work of Peled, Samotij, and Yehudayoff for expanders, we first show that on any bipartite $(n, d,…
We show how there is associated to each non-constant polynomial $F(x,y)$ a completely integrable system with polynomial invariants on $\Rd$ and on $\C{2d}$ for each $d\geq1$; in fact the invariants are not only in involution for one Poisson…
Begin with the Hasse-Weil zeta-function of a smooth projective variety over the rational numbers. Replace the variety with a finite CW-complex, replace etale cohomology with complex K-theory $KU^*$, and replace the $p$-Frobenius operator…
Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve and $p \in \{5,7,11 \}$ be a prime. We determine the possibilities for $E(\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{p}))_{tors}$. Additionally, we determine all the possibilities for $E(\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{16}))_{tors}$ and…
Let p be an odd prime, K a finite extension of Q_p, G=Gal(\bar K/K) the Galois group and e=e(K/Q_p) the ramification index. Suppose T is a p^n torsion representation such that T is isomorphic to a quotient of two G-stable Z_p-lattices in a…
