A computer algebra solution to a problem in finite groups.

Gert-Martin Greuel (2003)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

We report on a partial solution of the conjecture that the class of finite solvable groups can be characterised by 2-variable identities. The proof requires pieces from number theory, algebraic geometry, singularity theory and computer algebra. The computations were carried out using the computer algebra system SINGULAR.

A free group of piecewise linear transformations

Grzegorz Tomkowicz (2011)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We prove the following conjecture of J. Mycielski: There exists a free nonabelian group of piecewise linear, orientation and area preserving transformations which acts on the punctured disk {(x,y) ∈ ℝ²: 0 < x² + y² < 1} without fixed points.

A geometric approach to on-diagonal heat kernel lower bounds on groups

Thierry Coulhon, Alexander Grigor'yan, Christophe Pittet (2001)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We introduce a new method for obtaining heat kernel on-diagonal lower bounds on non- compact Lie groups and on infinite discrete groups. By using this method, we are able to recover the previously known results for unimodular amenable Lie groups as well as for certain classes of discrete groups including the polycyclic groups, and to give them a geometric interpretation. We also obtain new results for some discrete groups which admit the structure of a semi-direct product or of a wreath product....
