It is shown that certain diffeomorphism or homeomorphism groups with no restriction on support of an open manifold with finite number of ends are bounded. It follows that these groups are uniformly perfect. In order to characterize the…
We study a natural model of random 2-dimensional cubical complex which is a subcomplex of an n-dimensional cube, and where every possible square $2$-face is included independently with probability p. Our main result is to exhibit a sharp…
We prove finiteness properties for groups of homeomorphisms that have finitely many "singular points", and we describe the normal structure of such groups. As an application, we prove that every countable abelian group can be embedded into…
We consider the edge-triangle model, a two-parameter family of exponential random graphs in which dependence between edges is introduced through triangles. In the so-called replica symmetric regime, the limiting free energy exists together…
In $2019$ Hyde and the second author constructed the first family of finitely generated, simple, left orderable groups. We prove that these groups are not finitely presentable, non-inner amenable, don't have Kazhdan's property $(T)$ (yet…
Localization results for a class of random Schr\"odinger operators within the Hartree-Fock approximation are proved in two regimes: large disorder and weak disorder/extreme energies. A large disorder threshold $\lambda_{\mathrm{HF}}$…
We extend results of Y. Benoist and J.-F. Quint concerning random walks on homogeneous spaces of simple Lie groups to the case where the measure defining the random walk generates a semigroup which is not necessarily Zariski dense, but…
We propose to study a natural version of Connes' Rigidity Conjecture that involves property (T) groups with infinite center. Utilizing techniques at the intersection of von Neumann algebras and geometric group theory, we establish several…
For certain smooth unimodal families with negative Schwarzian derivative, we construct a set of Collet-Eckmann and subexponentially recurrent parameters $\Omega$, whose complement set has sufficiently fast decaying density, on which…
We prove that the genus of a finite-dimensional division algebra is finite whenever the center is a finitely generated field of any characteristic. We also discuss potential applications of our method to other problems, including the…
This work continues the study of the properties of finitely constrained groups of binary tree automorphisms in terms of their Hausdorff dimension. We prove that there are exactly $2^{2d-3}$ finitely constrained groups of binary tree…
We exhibit infinitely many pairs of non-isomorphic finitely presented, residually finite groups $\Delta$ and $\Gamma$ with $\Delta$ having Property FA, $\Gamma$ having a non-trivial action on a tree and $\Delta$ and $\Gamma$ having…
We study global dynamical properties of the isometry group of the Borel randomization of a separable complete structure. In particular, we show that if properties such as the Rohklin property, topometric generics, extreme amenability hold…
Let L contain only the equality symbol and let L^+ be an arbitrary finite symmetric relational language containing L . Suppose probabilities are defined on finite L^+ structures with ''edge probability'' n^{- alpha}. By T^alpha, the almost…
Let $L$ be the infinitesimal generator of an analytic semigroup on $L^2(\mathbb R^n)$ with Gaussian kernel bound, and let $L^{-\alpha/2}$ be the fractional integrals of $L$ for $0<\alpha<n$. In this paper, we will obtain some boundedness…
We extend the polynomial method of Chen--Garza-Vargas--Tropp--van Handel and Magee--Puder--van Handel for operator-norm bounds in random permutation models to the setting where torsion is present. The main new feature is that asymptotic…
By an $\ell$-group $G$ we mean a lattice-ordered abelian group. This paper is concerned with the category $\FP$ of finitely presented {\it unital} $\ell$-groups, those $\ell$-groups having a distinguished order-unit $u$. Using the duality…
Conjecturally, the Galois representations that are attached to essentially selfdual regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representations are Zariski-dense in a polarized Galois deformation ring. We prove new results in this direction in…
Let $Y(n, p)$ denote the probability space of random 2-dimensional simplicial complexes in the Linial--Meshulam model, and let $Y \sim Y(n, p)$ denote a random complex chosen according to this distribution. In a paper of Cohen, Costa,…
In this note we show that various (geometric/homological) finiteness properties are not profinite properties. For example for every $1 \le k, \ell \le \bbn$, there exist two finitely generated residually finite groups $\Ga_1$ and $\Ga_2$…
