Given a finite group $\Gamma$, we prove results on the distribution of the prime-to-$q|\Gamma|$ part of fundamental groups of $\Gamma$-covers of the projective line $\mathbb P^1_{\mathbb F_q}$ over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ as…
We characterize which cobounded quasigeodesics in the Teichmueller space T of a closed surface are at bounded distance from a geodesic. More generally, given a cobounded lipschitz path gamma in T, we show that gamma is a quasigeodesic with…

We prove some finiteness results for discrete isometry groups $\Gamma$ of uniformly packed CAT$(0)$-spaces $X$ with uniformly bounded codiameter (up to group isomorphism), and for CAT$(0)$-orbispaces $M = \Gamma \backslash X$ (up to…
Suppose $G$ is a finitely presented group that is hyperbolic relative to ${\bf P}$ a finite collection of 1-ended finitely generated proper subgroups of $G$. If $G$ and the ${\bf P}$ are 1-ended and the boundary $\partial (G,{\bf P})$ has…
Suppose $G$ is a 1-ended finitely generated group that is hyperbolic relative to P a finite collection of 1-ended finitely generated subgroups. Our main theorem states that if the boundary $\partial (G, P)$ has no cut point, then $G$ has…
Let $G$ be a connected semisimple real algebraic group and $P<G$ be a minimal parabolic subgroup with Langlands decomposition $P=MAN$. Let $\Gamma < G$ be a Zariski dense Anosov subgroup with respect to $P$. Since $\Gamma$ is Anosov, the…
Let $G$ be a Lie group, $\Gamma\subset G$ a discrete subgroup, $X=G/\Gamma$, and $f$ an affine map from $X$ to itself. We give conditions on a submanifold $Z$ of $X$ guaranteeing that the set of points $x\in X$ with $f$-trajectories…
Let $X$ be a proper, geodesically complete Hadamard space, and $\ \Gamma<\mbox{Is}(X)$ a discrete subgroup of isometries of $X$ with the fixed point of a rank one isometry of $X$ in its infinite limit set. In this paper we prove that if…
Let $G$ be a real Lie group, $\Lambda\leq G$ a lattice, and $\Omega=G/\Lambda$. We study the equidistribution properties of the left random walk on $\Omega$ induced by a probability measure $\mu$ on $G$. It is assumed that $\mu$ has a…
A $(k,m)$-Furstenberg set $S \subset \mathbb{F}_q^n$ over a finite field is a set that has at least $m$ points in common with a $k$-flat in every direction. The question of determining the smallest size of such sets is a natural…
We study two closely related problems stemming from the random wave conjecture for Maass forms. The first problem is bounding the $L^4$-norm of a Maass form in the large eigenvalue limit; we complete the work of Spinu to show that the…
The Gruenberg--Kegel graph (or the prime graph) $\Gamma(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is defined as follows. The vertex set of $\Gamma(G)$ is the set of all prime divisors of the order of $G$. Two distinct primes $r$ and $s$ regarded as…
Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group without compact factor and $\Gamma < G$ a torsion-free, cocompact, irreducible lattice. According to Selberg, periodic orbits of regular Weyl chamber flows live on maximal flat periodic tori of the space of…
Let $G$ be a semisimple linear algebraic group over a field $k$ and let $G^+(k)$ be the subgroup generated by the subgroups $R_u(Q)(k)$, where $Q$ ranges over all the minimal $k$-parabolic subgroups $Q$ of $G$. We prove that if $G^+(k)$ is…
We study the general problem of equidistribution of expanding translates of an analytic curve by an algebraic diagonal flow on the homogeneous space $G/\Gamma$ of a semisimple algebraic group $G$. We define two families of algebraic…
Let $G$ be a unipotent group and $\mathcal F=\{F_t:t\in (0,\infty)\}$ a family of subsets of $G$, with $\mathcal F$ definable in an o-minimal expansion of the real field. Given a lattice $\Gamma\subseteq G$, we study the possible Hausdorff…
We describe the kernel of the canonical map from the Floyd boundary of a relatively hyperbolic group to its Bowditch boundary. Using our methods we then prove that a finitely generated group $H$ admitting a quasi-isometric map $\phi$ into a…
We prove bounds on approximate incidences between families of circles and families of points in the plane. As a consequence, we prove a lower bound for the dimension of circular $(u,v)$-Furstenberg sets, which is new for large $u$ and $v$.
