Let $G$ be a finitely generated group of polynomial volume growth equipped with a word-length $|\cdot|$. The goal of this paper is to develop techniques to study the behavior of random walks driven by symmetric measures $\mu$ such that, for…

We look at group actions on metric spaces, particularly at group actions on geodesic hyperbolic spaces. We classify the types of automorphisms on these spaces and prove several results about the density of the hyperbolic limit set of the…

We show that the group of bounded automatic automorphisms of a rooted tree is amenable, which implies amenability of numerous classes of groups generated by finite automata. The proof is based on reducing the problem to showing amenability…

We investigate some properties of density measures -- finitely additive measures on the set of natural numbers $\N$ extending asymptotic density. We introduce a class of density measures, which is defined using cluster points of the…

Let $G$ be a permutation group acting on a finite set $\Omega$ of cardinality $n$. The number of orbits of the induced action of $G$ on the set $\Omega_m$ of all size $m$ subsets of $\Omega$ satisfies the trivial inequalities…

Given a probability measure $\mu$ on the real line, there exists a semigroup $\mu_t$ with real parameter $t>1$ which interpolates the discrete semigroup of measures $\mu_n$ obtained by iterating its free convolution. It was shown in…

Abstract upper densities are monotone and subadditive functions from the power set of positive integers to the unit real interval that generalize the upper densities used in number theory, including the upper asymptotic density, the upper…

We completely determine the asymptotic depth, equivalently, the asymptotic projective dimension of a chain of edge ideals that is invariant under the action of the monoid Inc of increasing functions on the positive integers. Our results and…

We consider the group of permutations of the vertices of a lattice. A random walk is generated by unit steps that each interchange two nearest neighbor vertices of the lattice. We study the heat equation on the permutation group, using the…

We introduce dynamic asymptotic dimension, a notion of dimension for actions of discrete groups on locally compact spaces, and more generally for locally compact \'etale groupoids. We study our notion for minimal actions of the integer…

We prove that there exist infinitely many asymptotics of drift for random walks on finitely generated groups.

For any $k>1$, we find the asymptotics of the counting function of $k$-th power-free elements in an additive arithmetic semigroup with exponential growth of the abstract prime counting function. This paper continues the authors' earlier…

We define the asymptotic behavior "almost everywhere" of additive and multiplicative arithmetic functions in the paper. Classes of additive and multiplicative arithmetic functions are singled out for which the asymptotics coincides "almost…

We show that every non-amenable free product of groups admits free ergodic probability measure preserving actions which have relative property (T) in the sense of S.-Popa \cite[Def. 4.1]{Pop06}. There are uncountably many such actions up to…

In this article we prove some previously announced results about metric ultraproducts of finite simple groups. We show that any non-discrete metric ultraproduct of alternating or special linear groups is a geodesic metric space. For more…

Given an infinite group G, we consider the finitely additive measure defined on finite unions of cosets of finite index subgroups. We show that this shares many properties with the size of subsets of a finite group, for instance we can…

In this paper, we pursue our study of asymptotic properties of families of random matrices that have a tensor structure. In previous work, the first- and second-named authors provided conditions under which tensor products of unitary random…

We develop correlated random measures, random measures where the atom weights can exhibit a flexible pattern of dependence, and use them to develop powerful hierarchical Bayesian nonparametric models. Hierarchical Bayesian nonparametric…

In this paper we study random walks on a finitely generated group $G$ which has a free action on a $\mathbb{Z}^n$-tree. We show that if $G$ is non-abelian and acts minimally, freely and without inversions on a locally finite…

Measure Equivalence (ME) is the measure theoretic counterpart of quasi-isometry. This field grew considerably during the last years, developing tools to distinguish between different ME classes of countable groups. On the other hand,…
