Up until now, it was recognized that a large number of 2-torsion points was a technical barrier to improve the bounds for the symmetric tensor rank of multiplication in every extension of any finite field. In this paper, we show that there…

For certain HNN extensions including Baumslag-Solitar groups, a treeing is constructed from their certain probability-measure-preserving actions. This is a treeing of a quotient groupoid of the translation groupoid associated with their…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $A$, $B$ and $D$ be conjugacy classes of $ G$ with $D\subseteq AB=\{xy\mid x\in A, y\in B\}$. Denote by $\eta(AB)$ the number of distinct conjugacy classes such that $AB$ is the union of those. Set ${\bf…

This paper concerns locally finite 2-complexes $X_{m,n}$ which are combinatorial models for the Baumslag-Solitar groups $BS(m,n)$. We show that, in many cases, the locally compact group Aut($X_{m,n}$) contains incommensurable uniform…

We study the growth of the order of torsion subgroups of the homology in a tower of finite abelian coverings. In particular, we prove that it is exponential for when the tower converges to the maximal free abelian cover of a link complement…

For Coxeter groups with sufficiently large braid relations, we prove that the sequence of powers of a Coxeter element has unbounded reflection length. We establish a connection between the reflection length functions on arbitrary Coxeter…

In this paper we consider the existence of dense embeddings of Limit groups in locally compact groups generalizing earlier work of Breuillard, Gelander, Souto and Storm [GBSS] where surface groups were considered. Our main results are…

We study convergent sequences of Baumslag-Solitar groups in the space of marked groups. We prove that BS(m,n) --> F_2 for |m|,|n| --> \infty and BS(1,n) --> Z \wr Z for |n| --> \infty. For m fixed, |m|>1, we show that the sequence…

In this paper, we derive an asymptotic formula for the number of conjugacy classes of elements in a class of statistically convex-cocompact actions with contracting elements. Denote by $\mathcal C(o, n)$ (resp. $\mathcal C'(o, n)$) the set…

An expansion is developed for the Weil-Petersson Riemann curvature tensor in the thin region of the Teichm\"{u}ller and moduli spaces. The tensor is evaluated on the gradients of geodesic-lengths for disjoint geodesics. A precise lower…

We determine all generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups (finitely generated groups acting on a tree with all stabilizers infinite cyclic) which are quotients of a given Baumslag-Solitar group BS(m,n), and (when BS(m,n) is not Hopfian) which of…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated group with a finite generating set $S$. For $g\in G$, let $l_S(g)$ be the length of the shortest word over $S$ representing $g$. The growth series of $G$ with respect to $S$ is the series $A(t) =…
