We formalize the notion of limit of an inverse system of metric spaces with $1$-Lipschitz projections having unbounded fibers. The purpose is to use sub-Riemannian groups for metrizing the space of signatures of rectifiable paths in…

An element of a group is \emph{reversible} if it is conjugate to its own inverse, and it is \emph{strongly reversible} if it is conjugate to its inverse by an involution. A group element is strongly reversible if and only if it can be…

We study definably amenable NIP groups. We develop a theory of generics, showing that various definitions considered previously coincide, and study invariant measures. Applications include: characterization of regular ergodic measures, a…

Commuting involution graphs have been studied for finite Coxeter groups and for affine groups of classical type. The purpose of this short note is to establish some general results for commuting involution graphs in affine Coxeter groups,…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety. Define a stable map $f:C\to X$ to be "eventually smoothable" if there is an embedding $X\hookrightarrow\mathbb{P}^N$ such that $(C,f)$ occurs as the limit of a $1$-parameter family of stable maps to…

We examine sufficient conditions for the dual of a topological group to be metrizable and locally compact.

Finite projective planes are constructed using groups that satisfy simple-looking conditions. The resulting projective planes include many known planes and possibly new ones, and are precisely those having a collineation group fixing a flag…

In the setting of Carnot groups, we are concerned with the rectifiability problem for subsets that have finite sub-Riemannian perimeter. We introduce a new notion of rectifiability that is, possibly, weaker than the one introduced by…

We introduce a natural generalization of twisted maps, called \emph{warped maps}. While twisted maps play an important role in the study of Deligne--Mumford stacks, warped maps are better suited for studying Artin stacks. Heuristically,…

This paper is devoted to the construction of stochastic flows of measurable mappings in a locally compact separable metric space (M, $\rho$). We propose a new construction that produces strong measurable continuous modifications for certain…

We consider the notion of mixed multiplicities for multigraded modules by using Hilbert series, and this is later applied to study the projective degrees of rational maps. We use a general framework to determine the projective degrees of a…

With each piecewise monotonic map of the unit interval, a dimension triple is associated. The dimension triple, viewed as a Z[t, t^{-1}] module, is finitely generated, and generators are identified. Dimension groups are computed for Markov…

In this paper we construct certain irreducible infinite dimensional representations of algebraic groups with Frobenius maps. In particular, a few classical results of Steinberg and Deligne & Lusztig on complex representations of finite…

We study the isoperimetric and spectral profiles of certain families of finitely generated groups defined via actions on labelled Schreier graphs and simple {\em gluing} of such. In one of our simplest constructions---the {\em…

We characterize Markov lattice semigroups induced by measurable semiflows on probability spaces by properties of their generators. In addition we construct topological models on compact spaces for such semigroups.

This paper shows that various relevant dynamical systems can be described as vector fields associated to smooth functions via a bracket that defines what we call a Leibniz structure. We show that gradient flows, some dissipative systems,…

For every p >= 5, we determine all Z_p-invariant nonsingular quartic surfaces in the three dimensional projective space over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In some cases, we also determine their full projective…

The paper deals with dynamics of expanding Lorenz maps, which appear in a natural way as Poincar\`e maps in geometric models of well-known Lorenz attractor. Using both analytical and symbolic approaches, we study connections between…

Motivic local systems over a curve in finite characteristic form a countable set endowed with an action of the absolute Galois group of rational numbers commuting with the Frobenius map. I will discuss three series of conjectures about such…

We study the dynamics of measurable pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms of surfaces, a generalization of Thurston's pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms. A measurable pseudo-Anosov map has a transverse pair of full measure turbulations consisting of…
