Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a non-archimedean local field of positive characteristic different from 2. We consider distributions on $\mathrm{GL}(n+1,\mathbb{F})$ which are invariant under the adjoint action of $\mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{F})$. We prove…
We give a combinatorial formula for the inverses of the alternating sums of free quasi-symmetric functions of the form F_{\omega(I)} where I runs over compositions with parts in a prescribed set C. This proves in particular three special…
We construct new families of groups with property (T) and infinitely many alternating group quotients. One of those consists of subgroups of $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbf F_{p}[x_1, \dots, x_n])$ generated by a suitable set of tame automorphisms.…
We show that if one selects uniformly independently and identically distributed matrices $A_1, \ldots, A_s \in \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ from a ball of large radius $X$ then with probability at least $1 - X^{-1 + o(1)}$ the matrices $A_1,…
If $G$ is a semisimple Lie group of real rank at least 2 and $\Gamma$ is an irreducible lattice in $G$, then every homomorphism from $\Gamma$ to the outer automorphism group of a finitely generated free group has finite image.
We improve on recent estimates for the probability of generating the alternating and symmetric groups $\mathrm{Alt}(n)$ and $\mathrm{Sym}(n)$. In particular we find the sharp lower bound, if the probability is given by a quadratic in…
A residually nilpotent group is \emph{$k$-parafree} if all of its lower central series quotients match those of a free group of rank $k$. Magnus proved that $k$-parafree groups of rank $k$ are themselves free. We mimic this theory with…
Let FL_s(K) be the finitary linear group of degree s over an associative ring K with unity. We prove that the torsion subgroups of FL_s(K) are locally finite for certain classes of rings K. A description of some f.g. solvable subgroups of…
In this paper we show some multiplicity estimates theorems for a connected algebraic group (not necessarily commutative) $G$ over an algebraically closed subfield of $\mathbb{C}$. More specifically, under particular assumptions on the…
We study the distribution of spacings between squares modulo q as the number of prime divisors of q tends to infinity. In an earlier paper Kurlberg and Rudnick proved that the spacing distribution for square free q is Poissonian, this paper…
In this paper we study algebras of modular forms on unitary groups of signature $(n,1)$. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for an algebra of unitary modular forms to be free in terms of the modular Jacobian. As a corollary we…
There is an infinitely generated free subgroup of the smooth knot concordance group with the property that no nontrivial element in this subgroup can be represented by an alternating knot. This subgroup has the further property that every…
In the present paper we show that there exist infinitely many consecutive square-free numbers of the form $[\alpha n]$, $[\alpha n]+1$, where $\alpha>1$ is irrational number with bounded partial quotient or irrational algebraic number.
Voiculescu's random matrix model for freeness is extended to the non-Gaussian case and also the case of constant block diagonal matrices. Thus we are able to investigate free products of free group factors with matrix algebras and with the…
Given a finitely generated (fg) group G, the set R(G) of homomorphisms from G to SL(2,C) inherits the structure of an algebraic variety known as the "representation variety" of G. This algebraic variety is an invariant of fg presentations…
A group G is (finitely) co-Hopfian if it does not contain any proper (finite-index) subgroups isomorphic to itself. We study finitely generated groups G that admit a descending chain of proper normal finite-index subgroups, each of which is…
In the present paper we develop a small cancellation theory for associative algebras with a basis of invertible elements. Namely, we study quotients of a group algebra of a free group and introduce three axioms for the corresponding…
In this note, we prove that a random extension of either the free group $F_N$ of rank $N\ge3$ or of the fundamental group of a closed, orientable surface $S_g$ of genus $g\ge2$ is a hyperbolic group. Here, a random extension is one…
We prove Qingyuan Jiang's conjecture on semiorthogonal decompositions of derived categories of Quot schemes of locally free quotients. The author's result on categorified Hall products for Grassmannian flips is applied to prove the…
In this note we prove the following results: $\bullet$ If a finitely presented group $G$ admits a strongly aperiodic SFT, then $G$ has decidable word problem. More generally, for f.g. groups that are not recursively presented, there exists…
