Title: Rational growth in torus bundle groups of odd trace
Abstract A group is said to have rational growth with respect to a generating set if the growth series is a rational function. It was shown by Parry that certain torus bundle groups of even trace exhibits rational growth. We generalize this result to a class of torus bundle groups with odd trace.  more » « less

  1. ln this paper, a generalized cusp is a properly convex manifold with strictly convex boundary that is diffeomorphic to M × [ 0 , ∞ ) M\times [0,\infty ) where M M is a closed Euclidean manifold. These are classified by Ballas, Cooper, and Leitner [J. Topol. 13 (2020), pp. 1455-1496]. The marked moduli space is homeomorphic to a subspace of the space of conjugacy classes of representations of π 1 M \pi _1M . It has one description as a generalization of a trace-variety, and another description involving weight data that is similar to that used to describe semi-simple Lie groups. It is also a bundle over the space of Euclidean similarity (conformally flat) structures on M M , and the fiber is a closed cone in the space of cubic differentials. For 3 3 -dimensional orientable generalized cusps, the fiber is homeomorphic to a cone on a solid torus.

  2. Abstract We define a notion of height for rational points with respect to a vector bundle on a proper algebraic stack with finite diagonal over a global field, which generalizes the usual notion for rational points on projective varieties. We explain how to compute this height for various stacks of interest (for instance: classifying stacks of finite groups, symmetric products of varieties, moduli stacks of abelian varieties, weighted projective spaces). In many cases, our uniform definition reproduces ways already in use for measuring the complexity of rational points, while in others it is something new. Finally, we formulate a conjecture about the number of rational points of bounded height (in our sense) on a stack $$\mathcal {X}$$ , which specializes to the Batyrev–Manin conjecture when $$\mathcal {X}$$ is a scheme and to Malle’s conjecture when $$\mathcal {X}$$ is the classifying stack of a finite group.

  3. Abstract We prove that all Galerkin truncations of the 2d stochastic Navier–Stokes equations in vorticity form on any rectangular torus subjected to hypoelliptic, additive stochastic forcing are chaotic at sufficiently small viscosity, provided the frequency truncation satisfies$$N\ge 392$$ N 392 . By “chaotic” we mean having a strictly positive Lyapunov exponent, i.e. almost-sure asymptotic exponential growth of the derivative with respect to generic initial conditions. A sufficient condition for such results was derived in previous joint work with Alex Blumenthal which reduces the question to the non-degeneracy of a matrix Lie algebra implying Hörmander’s condition for the Markov process lifted to the sphere bundle (projective hypoellipticity). The purpose of this work is to reformulate this condition to be more amenable for Galerkin truncations of PDEs and then to verify this condition using (a) a reduction to genericity properties of a diagonal sub-algebra inspired by the root space decomposition of semi-simple Lie algebras and (b) computational algebraic geometry executed by Maple in exact rational arithmetic. Note that even though we use a computer assisted proof, the result is valid for all aspect ratios and all sufficiently high dimensional truncations; in fact, certain steps simplify in the formal infinite dimensional limit.

  4. We prove effective equidistribution of primitive rational points and of primitive rational points defined by monomials along long horocycle orbits in products of the torus and the modular surface. This answers a question posed in joint work by the first and the last-named author with Shahar Mozes and Uri Shapira. Under certain congruence conditions, we prove the joint equidistribution of conjugate rational points in the 2-torus and the modular surface.

  5. We determine linear inequalities on the eigenvalues of curvature operators that imply vanishing of the twisted A-hat genus on a closed Riemannian spin manifold, where the twisting bundle is any prescribed parallel bundle of tensors. These inequalities yield surgery-stable curvature conditions tailored to annihilate further rational cobordism invariants, such as the Witten genus, elliptic genus, signature, and even the rational cobordism class itself.
