For a local field $K$ and $n \geq 2$, let $\Xi_n$ and $\Delta_n$ denote the affine buildings naturally associated to the special linear and symplectic groups $\SL_n(K)$ and $\Sp_n(K)$, respectively. We relate the number of vertices in…

We construct explicit generating sets S_n and \tilde S_n of the for the alternating and the symmetric groups, which turn the Cayley graphs C(Alt(n), S_n) and C(Sym(n), \tilde S_n) into a family of bounded degree expanders for all n. This…

We construct an explicit generating sets $F_n$ and $\tilde F_n$ of the alternating and the symmetric groups, which make the Cayley graphs $C(Alt(n), F_n)$ and $C(Sym(n), \tilde F_n)$ a family of bounded degree expanders for all sufficiently…

The symplectic graph Sp(2d, q) is the collinearity graph of the symplectic space of dimension 2d over a finite field of order q. A k-regular graph on v vertices is a divisible design graph with parameters (v, k, lambda_1, lambda_2 ,m,n) if…

Using expander graphs, we construct a sequence of smooth compact surfaces with boundary of perimeter N, and with the first non-zero Steklov eigenvalue uniformly bounded away from zero. This answers a question which was raised in [9]. The…

We study how the spectral gap and diameter of Cayley graphs depend strongly on the choice of generating set. We answer a question of Pyber and Szab\'o (2013) by exhibiting a sequence of finite groups $G_n$ with $|G_n| \to \infty$ admitting…

Let $\mathfrak{sp}_{2n}(\mathbb {K})$ be the symplectic Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We prove that for any nonzero nilpotent element $X \in \mathfrak{sp}_{2n}(\mathbb {K})$ there exists a nilpotent…

For each n greater than 7 we explicitly construct a sequence of Stein manifolds diffeomorphic to complex affine space of dimension n so that there is no algorithm to tell us in general whether a given such Stein manifold is symplectomorphic…

We study families of self-adjoint operators with given spectra whose sum is a scalar operator. Such families are $*$-representations of certain algebras which can be described in terms of graphs and positive functions on them. The main…

We show that there are well separated families of quantum expanders with asymptotically the maximal cardinality allowed by a known upper bound. This has applications to the "growth" of certain operator spaces: It implies asymptotically…

The commuting graph $\Delta(G)$ of a finite non-abelian group $G$ is a simple graph with vertex set $G$ and two distinct vertices $x, y$ are adjacent if $xy = yx$. In this paper, among some properties of $\Delta(G)$, we investigate…

Let $D$ denote a quaternion division algebra over a non-archimedean local field $F$ with characteristic zero. Let $Sp_n(D)$ be the unique non-split inner form of the symplectic group $Sp_{2n}(F)$. An irreducible admissible representation…

Let $\Gamma$ be a group of type $F_n$ and let $X$ be the $n$ skeleton of the universal cover of a $K(\Gamma,1)$ simplicial complex with finite $n$ skeleton. We show that if $\Gamma$ is strongly $n$-Kazhdan, then for any family of finite…

Consider the undirected graph $G_n=(V_n, E_n)$ where $V_n = (Z/nZ)^2$ and $E_n$ contains an edge from $(x,y)$ to $(x+1,y)$, $(x,y+1)$, $(x+y,y)$, and $(x,y+x)$ for every $(x,y) \in V_n$. Gabber and Galil, following Margulis, gave an…

The main aim of this paper is to classify the irreducible admissible representations of ${\rm GL}_{4}(F)$ and ${\rm GL}_{6}(F)$ for a nonarchimedean local field $F$, which bear a nontrivial linear form invariant under the groups ${\rm…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite graph. For $v\in V$ we denote by $G_v$ the subgraph of $G$ that is induced by $v$'s neighbor set. We say that $G$ is $(a,b)$-regular for $a>b>0$ integers, if $G$ is $a$-regular and $G_v$ is $b$-regular for every…

We show that the natural conjugation invariant cone structure on the linear symplectic group $\mathrm{Sp}(2n)$ is globally hyperbolic in the positively elliptic region $\mathrm{Sp}_{\mathrm{ell}}^{+}(2n)$. This answers a question by…

High-dimensional expanders are a generalization of the notion of expander graphs to simplicial complexes and give rise to a variety of applications in computer science and other fields. We provide a general tool to construct families of…

We prove that there exist $k\in N$ and $0<\epsilon\in R$ such that every non-abelian finite simple group $G$, which is not a Suzuki group, has a set of $k$ generators for which the Cayley graph $\Cay(G; S)$ is an $\epsilon$-expander.

For a Banach space $X$, we show that any family of graphs quasi-isometric to levels of a warped cone $\mathcal O_\Gamma Y$ is an expander with respect to $X$ if and only if the induced $\Gamma$-representation on $L^2(Y;X)$ has a spectral…
