We obtain sharp estimates on the growth rate of stable commutator length on random (geodesic) words, and on random walks, in hyperbolic groups and groups acting nondegenerately on hyperbolic spaces. In either case, we show that with high…

Zeckendorf's theorem states that every positive integer can be written uniquely as the sum of non-consecutive shifted Fibonacci numbers $\{F_n\}$, where we take $F_1=1$ and $F_2=2$. This has been generalized for any Positive Linear…

Let $A$ be a nonempty subset of finite abelian group $G$ of order $n$. For an integer $h \geq 2$, the restricted $h$-fold sumset $h^\wedge A$ is the set of all sums of $h$ distinct elements of $A$. It is known that if $G$ is a group of…

The complexity function of an infinite word $w$ on a finite alphabet $A$ is the sequence counting, for each non-negative $n$, the number of words of length $n$ on the alphabet $A$ that are factors of the infinite word $w$. For any given…

To a non-trivial word $w(x_{1},...,x_{r})$ in a free group $F_{r}$ on $r$ elements and a group $G$, one can associate the word map $w_{G}:G^{r}\rightarrow G$ that takes an $r$-tuple $(g_{1},...,g_{r})$ in $G^{r}$ to $w(g_{1},...,g_{r})$. If…

We propose a numerical method for studying the cogrowth of finitely presented groups. To validate our numerical results we compare them against the corresponding data from groups whose cogrowth series are known exactly. Further, we add to…

We obtain various irreducibility criteria for pairs of polynomials $(f(X),g(X))$ with integer coefficients whose resultant $Res(f,g)$ is a prime number, or is divisible by a sufficiently large prime number, and also for some of their linear…

Let $m$ be a positive integer larger than $1$, let $w$ be a finite word over $\left\{0,1,...,m-1\right\}$ and let $a_{m;w}(n)$ be the number of occurrences of the word $w$ in the $m$-expansion of $n$ mod $p$ for any non-negative integer…

Let $F_1,\ldots,F_R$ be homogeneous polynomials with integer coefficients in $n$ variables with differing degrees. Write $\boldsymbol{F}=(F_1,\ldots,F_R)$ with $D$ being the maximal degree. Suppose that $\boldsymbol{F}$ is a nonsingular…

For any choice of a basis $\cal A$ the free group $F_N$ of finite rank $N \geq 2$ can be canonically identified with the set $F(\cal A)$ of reduced words in $\cal A\cup \cal A^{-1}$. However, such a word $w \in F(\cal A)$ admits a second…

We show that if $A$ is a finite set of non-negative integers then the number of zeros of the function \[ f_A(\theta) = \sum_{a \in A} \cos(a\theta), \] in $[0,2\pi]$, is at least $(\log \log \log |A|)^{1/2-\varepsilon}$. This gives the…

In this paper we derive a formula for the number of $N$-free elements over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with prescribed trace, in particular trace zero, in terms of Gaussian periods. As a consequence, we derive a simple explicit formula…

In this paper we study the asymptotic distribution of the moments of (non-normalized) traces $\Tr (w_1), \Tr(w_2), ..., \Tr(w_r)$, where $ w_1, w_2, >..., w_r$ are reduced words in unitaries in the group $\cU(N)$. We prove that as $N\to…

Let $F= < a,b>$ be a rank two free group. A word $W(a,b)$ in $F$ is {\sl primitive} if it, along with another group element, generates the group. It is a {\sl palindrome} (with respect to $a$ and $b$) if it reads the same forwards and…

We prove a rigidity theorem for the geometry of the unit ball in random subspaces of the scl norm in B_1^H of a free group. In a free group F of rank k, a random word w of length n (conditioned to lie in [F,F]) has scl(w)=log(2k-1)n/6log(n)…

In this paper we show that the leading coefficient $\mu(y,w)$ of some Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials $P_{y,w}$ with $y,w$ in an affine Weyl group of type $\tilde B_n$ (resp. $\tilde C_n$ or $\tilde D_n$) is $n$ (resp. $n+1$).

Let $w$ be a word in the free group on $r$ generators. The expected value of the trace of the word in $r$ independent Haar elements of $\mathrm{O}(n)$ gives a function ${\cal T}r_{w}^{\mathrm{O}}(n)$ of $n$. We show that ${\cal…

We analyze the Fourier growth, i.e. the $L_1$ Fourier weight at level $k$ (denoted $L_{1,k}$), of various well-studied classes of "structured" $\mathbb{F}_2$-polynomials. This study is motivated by applications in pseudorandomness, in…

Let s 1 ,. .. , s k be the elementary symmetric functions of the complex variables x 1 ,. .. , x k. We say that F $\in$ C[s 1 ,. .. , s k ] is a trace function if their exists f $\in$ C[z] such that F (s 1 ,. .. , s k ] = k j=1 f (x j) for…

The objective of this manuscript is to study directly the Favard type theorem associated with the three term recurrence formula % \[ R_{n+1}(z) = \big[(1+ic_{n+1})z+(1-ic_{n+1})\big] R_{n}(z) - 4 d_{n+1} z R_{n-1}(z), \quad n \geq 1, \] %…
