We investigate for which linear-algebraic groups (over the complex numbers or any local field) there exists subgroups which are dense in the Zariski topology, but discrete in the Hausdorff topology. For instance, such subgroups exist for…
In this note we study countable subgroups of the full group of a measure preserving equivalence relation. We provide various constraints on the group structure, the nature of the action, and on the measure of fixed point sets, that imply…
Discrete subgroups of SL(2,R) are well understood, and classified by the geometry of the corresponding hyperbolic surfaces. Discrete subgroups of higher-rank semisimple Lie groups, such as SL(n,R) for n>2, remain more mysterious. While…
We construct approximately inner actions of discrete amenable groups on strongly amenable subfactors of type II_1 with given invariants, and obtain classification results under some conditions. We also study the lifting of the relative \chi…
We here present, in modern notation, the classification of the discrete finite subgroups of SU(4) as well as the character tables for the exceptional cases thereof (Cf. https://github.com/yanghuihe/SU4Subgroups). We hope this catalogue will…
We prove that a free group F_2 admits a faithful discrete representation into Diff_{+}(I). We also prove that F_2 admits a faithful discrete representation into Homeo_{+}(I). Some properties of these representations have been studied. In…
We survey the recent applications and developments of sieve methods related to discrete groups, especially in the case of infinite index subgroups of arithmetic groups.
We discuss the local dynamics of a subgroup of Diff(C^2,0) possessing locally discrete orbits as well as the structure of the recurrent set for more general groups. It is proved, in particular, that a subgroup of Diff(C^2,0) possessing…
In this paper we use families of finite subgroups to study Grothendieck rings associated to certain discrete groups, such as the arithmetic ones.
Let $D$ be a division ring. In this paper, we investigate properties of subgroups of an arbitrary subnormal subgroup of the multiplicative group $D^*$ of $D$. The new obtained results generalize some previous results on subgroups of $D^*$.
We propose various problems about Borel complexity of characterized subgroups of compact abelian groups, inspired by our forthcoming paper \cite{DI3}.
In this survey, we discuss some basic problems concerning random matrices with discrete distributions. Several new results, tools and conjectures will be presented.
This survey is based on a series of lectures that we gave at MSRI in Spring 2015 and on a series of papers, mostly written jointly with Joan Porti. Our goal here is to: 1. Describe a class of discrete subgroups $\Gamma<G$ of higher rank…
A discrete subgroup of the group of isometries of the hyperbolic space is called reflective if up to a finite index it is generated by reflections in hyperplanes. The main result of this paper is a complete classification of the reflective…
I review some of the results presented in the working group on diffraction at DIS97, with a particular emphasis on the theory of diffractive hard scattering.
This is a survey of recent and classical results concerning various types of homogeneity, such as n-homogeneity, discrete homogeneity, and countable dense homogeneity. Some new results are also presented, and several problems are posed.
In 1995 in Kourovka notebook the second author asked the following problem: it is true that for each partition $G=A_1\cup\dots\cup A_n$ of a group $G$ there is a cell $A_i$ of the partition such that $G=FA_iA_i^{-1}$ for some set $F\subset…
We study deformations of the discrete Heisenberg group acting properly discontinuously on the Heisenberg group from the left and right and obtain a complete description of the deformation space.
Our original results refer to multivariate recurrences: discrete multitime diagonal recurrence, bivariate recurrence, trivariate recurrence, solutions tailored to particular situations, second order multivariate recurrences, characteristic…
We state a number of open questions on 3-dimensional Poincar\'e duality groups and their subgroups, motivated by considerations from 3-manifold topology.
