Using multiplicative ergodic theory we prove two formulae describing the relationships between different joint spectral radii for sets of bounded linear operators acting on a Banach space. In particular we recover a formula previously…

We describe the group of braided tensor autoequivalences of the Drinfeld centre of a finite group $G$ isomorphic to the identity functor (just as a functor) as a semi-direct product $Aut^1_{br}(\Z(G))\ \simeq\ Out_{2-cl}(G)\ltimes B(G)\ $…

The space of monic squarefree complex polynomials has a stratification according to the multiplicities of the critical points. We introduce a method to study these strata by way of the infinite-area translation surface associated to the…

The spectrum of a selfadjoint quadratic operator pencil of the form $\lambda^2M-\lambda G-A$ is investigated where $M\geq 0$, $G\geq 0$ are bounded operators and $A$ is selfadjoint bounded below is investigated. It is shown that in the case…

We prove structure theorems for the moduli stack of elliptic curves equipped with $G$-structures, where $G$ is a finite 2-generated metabelian group. In particular, we show that if $G$ has exponent $e$, then there is a subgroup $H\le…

Suppose that $(G,T)$ is a second countable locally compact transformation group given by a homomorphism $\ell:G\to\Homeo(T)$, and that $A$ is a separable continuous-trace \cs-algebra with spectrum $T$. An action $\alpha:G\to\Aut(A)$ is said…

We characterize possible spectra of rank-one perturbations B of a self-adjoint operator A with discrete spectrum and, in particular, prove that the spectrum of B may include any number of real or non-real eigenvalues of arbitrary algebraic…

Let $M$ be a Riemannian manifold, $\tau: G \times M \to M$ an isometric action on $M$ of an $n$-torus $G$ and $V: M \to \mathbb R$ a bounded $G$-invariant smooth function. By $G$-invariance the Schr\"odinger operator, $P=-\hbar^2…

The group $GL(2,Z)$ acts in a natural way on the set of pairs of $n\times n$-matrices determined up to a simultaneous conjugation. For $n=3$ we write explicit formulas for action of generators of $GL(2,Z)$ in the terms of spectral data of…

Generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups (GBS groups) are groups that act on trees with infinite cyclic edge and vertex stabilizers. Such an action is described by a labeled graph (essentially, the quotient graph of groups). This paper addresses…

There is a recently discovered connection between the spectral theory of Schr\"o-dinger operators whose potentials exhibit aperiodic order and that of Laplacians associated with actions of groups on regular rooted trees, as Grigorchuk's…

We encode the variation structure of a quasihomogeneous polynomial with an isolated singularity as introduced by Nemethi in a set of spectral flows of the signature operator on the Milnor bundle by varying global elliptic boundary…

Singular Green operators G appear typically as boundary correction terms in resolvents for elliptic boundary value problems on a domain \Omega \subset R^n, and more generally they appear in the calculus of pseudodifferential boundary…

For a bounded planar domain $\Omega^0$ whose boundary contains a number of flat pieces $\Gamma_i$ we consider a family of non-symmetric billiards $\Omega$ constructed by patching several copies of $\Omega^0$ along $\Gamma_i$'s. It is…

We study the portraits of isometries of rooted trees - the labelling of the tree, at each vertex, by the permutation of its descendants - in terms of languages. We characterize regularly branched self-similar groups in terms of…

Let f be a hypersurface surface local singularity whose zero set has 1-dimensional singular locus. We develop an explicit procedure that provides the boundary of the Milnor fibre of f as an oriented plumbed 3-manifold. The method provides…

This paper is a survey, with few proofs, of ideas and notions related to self-similarity of groups, semi-groups and their actions. It attempts to relate these concepts to more familiar ones, such as fractals, self-similar sets, and…

For a hypersurface isolated singularity defined by a convergent power series $f$, the Steenbrink spectrum can be defined as the Poincar\'e polynomial of the graded quotients of the $V$-filtration on the Jacobian ring of $f$. The Tjurina…

We associate a group $IMG(f)$ to every covering $f$ of a topological space $M$ by its open subset. It is the quotient of the fundamental group $\pi_1(M)$ by the intersection of the kernels of its monodromy action for the iterates $f^n$.…

Richard Stanley defined the chromatic symmetric function $X_G$ of a graph $G$ and asked whether there are non-isomorphic trees $T$ and $U$ with $X_T=X_U$. We study variants of the chromatic symmetric function for rooted graphs, where we…
