The cohomology $H^*(\Gamma, E) $ of a torsion-free arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ of the special linear $\mathbb{Q}$-group $\mathsf{G} = SL_n$ may be interpreted in terms of the automorphic spectrum of $\Gamma$. Within this framework, there…
Given the fundamental group $\Gamma$ of a finite-volume complete hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$, it is possible to associate to any representation $\rho:\Gamma \rightarrow \text{Isom}(\mathbb{H}^3)$ a numerical invariant called volume. This…
The low-energy physics of systems with spontaneously broken continuous symmetry is dominated by the ensuing Nambu-Goldstone bosons. It has been known for half a century how to construct invariant Lagrangian densities for the low-energy…
The intersection ideal graph $\Gamma(S)$ of a semigroup $S$ is a simple undirected graph whose vertices are all nontrivial left ideals of $S$ and two distinct left ideals $I, J$ are adjacent if and only if their intersection is nontrivial.…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated torsion-free group. We show that the statement of $\Gamma$ being virtually abelian is equivalent to the statement that the $*$-regular closure of the group ring $\mathbb{C}[\Gamma]$ in the algebra of…
We prove the equality $\cat(\phi)=\cd(\phi)$ for homomorphisms $\phi:\Gamma\to \Lambda$ of a torsion free finitely generated nilpotent groups $\Gamma$ to an arbitrary group $\Lambda$. We construct an epimorphism $\psi:G\to H$ between…
In this article we study the structure of $\Gamma$-invariant spaces of $L^2(\bf R)$. Here $\bf R$ is a second countable LCA group. The invariance is with respect to the action of $\Gamma$, a non commutative group in the form of a semidirect…
The classical result of Patterson and Sullivan says that for a non-elementary convex cocompact subgroup $\Gamma<\text{SO}^\circ (n,1)$, $n\ge 2$, the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set of $\Gamma$ is equal to the critical exponent of…
In this short note, we improve on a recent result by the authors. We show that infinite volume torsion free discrete subgroups of higher rank Lie groups have homological dimension gap at least one-eighth of the real rank, provided the…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite simplicial graph such that the flag complex on $\Gamma$ is a $2$-dimensional triangulated disk. We show that with some assumptions, the Dehn function of the associated Bestvina--Brady group is either quadratic,…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of the cohomology of subgroups $\Gamma$ of an algebraic group $G$ with coefficients in the various irreducible rational representations of $G$ and raise a conjecture about it. Namely, we expect that the…
Let $\Gamma$ be a hyperbolic group and G be the isometry group of a Gromov-hyperbolic, properand geodesic metric space. We study the action of the outer automorphism group Out($\Gamma$) onthe set X($\Gamma$,G) of conjugacy classes of…
We work with $N-$dimensional compact real hyperbolic space $X_{\Gamma}$ with universal covering $M$ and fundamental group $\Gamma$. Therefore, $M$ is the symmetric space $G/K$, where $G=SO_1(N,1)$ and $K=SO(N)$ is a maximal compact subgroup…
We study the harmonic space of line bundle valued forms over a covering manifold with a discrete group action $\Gamma$, and obtain an asymptotic estimate for the $\Gamma$-dimension of the harmonic space with respect to the tensor times $k$…
We discuss some properties of a model Hamiltonian for a system of three bosons interacting via zero-range forces in three dimensions. In order to avoid the well known instability phenomenon, we consider the so-called Minlos-Faddeev…
$\Gamma$-structures are weak forms of multiplications on closed oriented manifolds. As shown by Hopf the rational cohomology algebras of manifolds admitting $\Gamma$-structures are free over odd degree generators. We prove that this…
In this paper, we generalize Bonahon's characterization of geometrically infinite torsion-free discrete subgroups of PSL(2, $\mathbb{C}$) to geometrically infinite discrete subgroups $\Gamma$ of isometries of negatively pinched Hadamard…
We begin the investigation of Gamma-limit groups, where Gamma is a torsion-free group which is hyperbolic relative to a collection of free abelian subgroups. Using the results of Drutu and Sapir, we adapt the results from math.GR/0404440 to…
We prove a Morse Lemma for coarsely regular quasigeodesics in nonpositively curved symmetric spaces and euclidean buildings X. The main application is a simpler coarse geometric characterization of Morse subgroups of the isometry groups…
For $\Gamma$ a cofinite Kleinian group acting on $\mathbb{H}^3$, we study the Prime Geodesic Theorem on $M=\Gamma \backslash \mathbb{H}^3$, which asks about the asymptotic behaviour of lengths of primitive closed geodesics (prime geodesics)…
