Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0, let K/k be a transcendental extension of arbitrary transcendence degree and let G be a multiplicative subgroup of (K^*)^n such that (k^*)^n is contained in G, and G/(k^*)^n has…
The normal covering number $\gamma(G)$ of a finite, non-cyclic group $G$ is the minimum number of proper subgroups such that each element of $G$ lies in some conjugate of one of these subgroups. We find lower bounds linear in $n$ for…
Let K be a field of characteristic 0. We consider linear equations a1*x1+...+an*xn=1 in unknowns x1,...,xn from G, where a1,...,an are non-zero elements of K, and where G is a subgroup of the multiplicative group of non-zero elements of K.…
Let K be a field of positive characteristic. When V is a linear variety in K^n and G is a finitely generated subgroup of K^*, we show how to compute the intersection of V and G^n effectively using heights. We calculate all the estimates…
Let $K$ be a number field, $k\geq 2$ an integer, $(K^*)^k$ the $k$-fold direct product of $K^*$ with coordinatewise multiplication, and $\Gamma$ a finitely generated subgroup of rank $r$ of $(K^*)^k$. Further, let $H(\alpha )$ denote the…
The normal covering number $\gamma(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the minimum number of proper subgroups whose conjugates cover the group. We give various estimates for $\gamma(S_n)$ and $\gamma(A_n)$ depending on the arithmetic structure of…
For a non-cyclic finite group $G$, let $\gamma(G)$ denote the smallest number of conjugacy classes of proper subgroups of $G$ needed to cover $G$. Bubboloni, Praeger and Spiga, motivated by questions in number theory, have recently…
In Part I we construct the upper bound, in the spirit of $\Gamma$- $\limsup$, achieved by multidimensional profiles, for some general classes of singular perturbation problems, with or without the prescribed differential constraint, taking…
We obtain a tight, up to a logarithmic factor, upper bound on the number of solutions to the equation $$ \sum_{j=1}^n a_j \frac{s_j}{r_j} =a_0, \qquad $$ with variables $r_1,...,r_n$ in an arbitrary box at the origin and variables $s_1,...,…
We show that for any finite-rank free group $\Gamma$, any word-equation in one variable of length $n$ with constants in $\Gamma$ fails to be satisfied by some element of $\Gamma$ of word-length $O(\log (n))$. By a result of the first…
We study the best approximation problem: \[ \displaystyle \min_{\alpha\in \mathbb R^m}\max_{1\leq i\leq n}\left|y_i -\sum_{j=1}^m \alpha_j \Gamma_j ({\bf x}_i) \right|. \] Here: $\Gamma:=\left\{\Gamma_1,...,\Gamma_m\right\}$ is a list of…
Consider a hierarchical log-linear model, given by a simplicial complex, $\Gamma$, and integer matrix $A_\Gamma$. We give a new characterization of the rank of $A_\Gamma$ given by a logarithmic transformation on the exponential Hilbert…
We obtain a nontrivial bound on the number of solutions to the equation $A^{x_1} + A^{x_2} = A^{x_3} + A^{x_4}$, $1 \le x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4 \le \tau$, with a fixed $n\times n$ matrix $A$ over a finite field ${\mathbb F}_q$ of $q$ elements of…
Let $\Gamma$ be a quiver on n vertices $v_1, v_2, ..., v_n$ with $g_{ij}$ edges between $v_i$ and $v_j$, and let $\alpha \in \N^n$. Hua gave a formula for $A_{\Gamma}(\alpha, q)$, the number of isomorphism classes of absolutely…
Let $\Gamma$ be an infinite discrete subgroup of Gl$_n(\mathbb{C})$. Then either $(\mathbb{R}, <, +, \cdot, \Gamma)$ is interdefinable with $(\mathbb{R}, <, +, \cdot, \lambda^\mathbb{Z})$ for some $\lambda \in \mathbb{R}$, or $(\mathbb{R},…
Let $G$ be a finitely generated malabelian group, let $A\leq\mathrm{Out}(G)$ be a finitely generated subgroup, and let $\Gamma_{G,A}$ denote the preimage of $A$ in $\mathrm{Aut}(G)$. We give a general criterion for the linearity of…
We find an upper bound for the number of groups of order $n$ up to isomorphism in the variety $G = A_pA_qA_r$, where $p$, $q$ and $r$ are distinct primes. We also find a bound on the orders and on the number of conjugacy classes of…
Normal residual finiteness growth measures how well a finitely generated group is approximated by its finite quotients. We show that any linear group $\Gamma \leq \mathrm{GL}_d(K)$ has normal residual finiteness growth asymptotically…
Let $\Gamma$ be a group and $r_n(\Gamma)$ the number of its $n$-dimensional irreducible complex representations. We define and study the associated representation zeta function $\calz_\Gamma(s) = \suml^\infty_{n=1} r_n(\Gamma)n^{-s}$. When…
In part II we constructed the lower bound, in the spirit of $\Gamma$- $\liminf$ for some general classes of singular perturbation problems, with or without the prescribed differential constraint, taking the form E_\e(v):=\int_\Omega…
