Certain solvable extensions of $H$-type groups provide noncompact counterexamples to the so-called Lichnerowicz conjecture, which asserted that ``harmonic'' Riemannian spaces must be rank 1 symmetric spaces.

Let $B$ be the group of invertible upper-triangular complex $n\times n$ matrices, $\mathfrak{u}$ the space of upper-triangular complex matrices with zeroes on the diagonal and $\mathfrak{u}^*$ its dual space. The group $B$ acts on…

We classify all finite order invariants of immersions of a closed orientable surface into R^3, with values in any Abelian group. We show that they are all functions of order one invariants.

Given a simply connected nilpotent Lie group having unitary irreducible representations that are square-integrable modulo the center (SI/Z), we develop a notion of periodization on the group Fourier transform side, and use this notion to…

In this article we consider diffeomorphism groups of manifolds with smooth boundary. We show that the diffeomorphism groups of the manifold and its boundary fit into a short exact sequence which admits local sections. In other words, they…

A slice-torus invariant is an $\mathbb{R}$-valued homomorphism on the knot concordance group whose value gives a lower bound for the 4-genus such that the equality holds for any positive torus knot. Such invariants have been discovered in…

We prove using a novel random matrix model that all right-angled Artin groups have a sequence of finite dimensional unitary representations that strongly converge to the regular representation. We deduce that this result applies also to:…

This paper is a continuation and elaboration of our work quant-ph/0206057 (Nucl. Phys. B, 1968, 7, 79) where some approach to the variable-mass problem were proposed. Here we have found a concret realization of irreducible representations…

We introduce a new isomorphism invariant for generalized Baumslag-Solitar (GBS) groups, which we call the limit angle. Unlike previously known invariants, which are primarily algebraic, the limit angle admits a dynamical interpretation,…

We are studying spatial mappings that satisfy some space analog of a hydrodynamical type of growth in the neighborhood of the infinity. It is proved that homeomorphisms of the specified class form equicontinuous families under some…

Let a compact Lie group act isometrically on a non-collapsing sequence of compact Alexandrov spaces with fixed dimension and uniform lower curvature and upper diameter bounds. If the sequence of actions is equicontinuous and converges in…

We derive a homeomorphism invariant for those tiling spaces which are made by rather general substitution rules on polygonal tiles, including those tilings, like the pinwheel, which contain tiles in infinitely many orientations. The…

We give the sharp lower bound of the volume product of three dimensional convex bodies which are invariant under two kinds of discrete subgroups of $O(3)$ of order four. We also characterize the convex bodies with the minimal volume product…

We consider a geometrically finite discrete group of conformal transformations of the sphere. Further we consider distributions which are supported on the limit set and are invariant with conformal weight. We estimate their regularity in…

Motivated by questions about $\mathbb{C}_p$-valued Fourier transform on the locally compact group $(\mathbb{Q}_p^d,+)$, we study invariant norms on the $p$-adic Schr\"odinger representation of the Heisenberg group. Our main result is a…

Building upon work of Y. Shalom we give a homological-algebra flavored definition of an induction map in group homology associated to a topological coupling. As an application we obtain estimates of the (co)homological dimension of groups G…

We compute in many classes of examples the first potentially interesting homotopy group of the space of embeddings of either an arc or a circle into a manifold $M$ of dimension $d\geq4$. In particular, if $M$ is a simply connected…

Let $E(\mathscr{A})$ denote the shift-invariant space associated with a countable family $\mathscr{A}$ of functions in $L^{2}(\mathbb{H}^{n})$ with mutually orthogonal generators, where $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ denotes the Heisenberg group. The…

We identify those elements of the homeomorphism group of the circle that can be expressed as a composite of two involutions.

In this article we study invariance properties of shift-invariant spaces in higher dimensions. We state and prove several necessary and sufficient conditions for a shift-invariant space to be invariant under a given closed subgroup of…
