Study of $p$-adic simplicial volumes and their properties.

The Yokonuma-Hecke algebras are quotients of the modular framed braid group and they support Markov traces. In this paper, which is sequel to Juyumaya and Lambropoulou (2007), we explore further the structures of the $p$-adic framed braids and the $p$-adic Yokonuma-Hecke algebras constructed in Juyumaya and Lambropoulo…

Develops Weil bundles over \( p \)-adic manifolds for arithmetic geometry.

This paper reformulates the $p$-adic Littlewood Conjecture using infinite loops.

Let $p$ be a prime number. We develop a theory of $p$-adic Mahler measure of polynomials and apply it to the study of $\mathbb{Z}$-covers of rational homology 3-spheres branched over links. We obtain a $p$-adic analogue of the asymptotic formula of the torsion homology growth and a balance formula among the leading coe…

The paper studies $p$-adic limits of class numbers in $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions and covers.

We give a brief overview of the theory of complex dimensions of real (archimedean) fractal strings via an illustrative example, the ordinary Cantor string, and a detailed survey of the theory of p-adic (nonarchimedean) fractal strings and their complex dimensions. Moreover, we present an explicit volume formula for the…

A conceptual framework for cluster analysis from the viewpoint of p-adic geometry is introduced by describing the space of all dendrograms for n datapoints and relating it to the moduli space of p-adic Riemannian spheres with punctures using a method recently applied by Murtagh (2004b). This method embeds a dendrogram …

Geometric zeta functions of Ihara and Hashimoto are generalized to higher rank. The $p$-adic version of the Patterson conjecture is proven.

In this paper we define the $p$-adic framed braid group ${\mathcal F}_{\infty,n}$, arising as the inverse limit of the modular framed braids and we give topological generators for ${\mathcal F}_{\infty, n}$. We also give geometric interpretations for the $p$-adic framed braids. We then construct a $p$-adic Yokonuma-Hec…

A new multiagent model of the stock market is formulated that contains four states in which the agents may be located. Next, the model is reformulated in the language of the functional integral containing fluctuations of prices and quantities of cash flows. It is shown that in the functional integral of that type descr…

A survey of real differential geometry and loop theory is given in order to introduce the construction of an analytic loop associated to p-adic differential manifold.

Dendrograms used in data analysis are ultrametric spaces, hence objects of nonarchimedean geometry. It is known that there exist $p$-adic representation of dendrograms. Completed by a point at infinity, they can be viewed as subtrees of the Bruhat-Tits tree associated to the $p$-adic projective line. The implications a…

We prove a triangulation theorem for semi-algebraic sets over a p-adically closed field, quite similar to its real counterpart. We derive from it several applications like the existence of flexible retractions and splitting for semi-algebraic sets.

In this paper we study compacta Y that are resolvable by a free p-adic action on a compactum of a lower dimension and focus on compacta Y whose cohomological dimension with respect to the group Z[1/p] is 1.

Raymond and Wiliams constructed an action of the p-adic integers on an n-dimensional compactum, n>1, with the orbit space of dimension n+2. The author earlier presented a simplified approach for constructing such an action. In this paper we generalize this approach to show that for every n>1, an (n+2)-dimensional compa…

Raymond and Wiliams in "Examples of p-adic transformation groups", Ann. of Math. (2) 78 (1963) 92-106, constructed an action of the p-adic integers on an n-dimensional compactum, n>1, with the orbit space of dimension n+2. We present a simpler construction of such an example.

We study the asymptotic growth of Betti numbers in tower of finite covers and provide simple proofs of approximation results, which were previously obtained by Calegari-Emerton, in the generality of arbitrary p-adic analytic towers of covers. Further, we also obtain partial results about arbitrary pro-$p$ towers.

In this paper we represent the classical braids in the Yokonuma--Hecke and the adelic Yokonuma--Hecke algebras. More precisely, we define the completion of the framed braid group and we introduce the adelic Yokonuma--Hecke algebras, in analogy to the $p$--adic framed braids and the $p$--adic Yokonuma--Hecke algebras in…

We suggest to use the Hall-Littlewood version of Rosso-Jones formula to define the germs of $p$-adic HOMFLY-PT polynomials for torus knots $[m,n]$, which possess at least the $[m,n] \longleftrightarrow [n,m]$ topological invariance. This calls for generalizations to other knot families and is a challenge for several br…

We describe in this paper a geometric construction in the projective p-adic plane that gives, together with a suitable notion of p-adic convexity, some open subsets of P 2 .Q p / naturally endowed with a "Hilbert" distance and a transitive action of PGL.2; Q p / by isometries. ese open sets are natural analogues of the…

Levine defined the rational algebraic knot concordance group and proved that each nontrivial element is of order two, of order four, or of infinite order. The determination of the order of an element depends on a p-adic analysis for all primes p. Here we develop effective means to determine the order of any element tha…

Survey of Weber's class number problem and related topics.

Finite actions of lattices on manifolds proven for certain groups.

New example solves topological dynamics problem.

Let p and l be two distinct prime numbers and let G be a group. We study the asymptotic behaviour of the mod-l Betti numbers in p-adic analytic towers of finite index subgroups. If X is a finite l-group of automorphisms of G, our main theorem allows to lift lower bounds for the mod-l cohomology growth in the fixed poin…

Arithmetic topology connects surface and $p$-adic field studies, enabling new insights into Galois groups.

Magnitude of manifolds linked to Riesz energies and beta functions.

The p-adic theory of the stock market is presented. It is shown that the price dynamics is very naturally described by the adelic function. The procedure of derivation of the functional integral formulation of adelic type is derived from microscopic models using generalized supercoherent states.

We give a necessary condition for a closed subset of $R^3$ to be the set of critical points of some smooth function. In particular we obtain that for example neither the Whitehead continuum nor the p-adic solenoid are such a critical sets.

Classifies limits of groups of involutions in SL(2,F) over local fields.

We construct certain operations on stable moduli spaces and use them to compare cohomology of moduli spaces of closed manifolds with tangential structure. We obtain isomorphisms in a stable range provided the $p$-adic valuation of the Euler characteristics agree, for all primes $p$ not invertible in the coefficients fo…

Arithmetic study of knots connects homology and SL2 representations.

Study shows non-existence of almost complex structures on certain sphere bundles over complex projective spaces.

For a link $L$ in the 3-sphere and for a prime $p$, we express the $p$-primary information on the first homology group of $p^{m}$-fold branched covers of $L$ in terms of its $p$-adic Milnor higher linking invariants, using the completed Alexander module of the pro-$p$ completion of the link group of $L$.

This is the topological part of two papers on the cohomology of Kaehler groups. In this paper we show that if a linear duality group of dimension larger than 6 is the fundamental group of a compact Kaehler manifold then its second or its fourth Betti number is non-zero. As a corollary a cocompact p-adic lattice of rank…

This paper investigates integer multiplication of continued fractions using geometric structures. In particular, this paper shows that integer multiplication of a continued fraction can be represented by replacing one triangulation of an orbifold with another triangulation. This method is used to show that eventually p…

We consider compact, aspherical solenoids obtained as the inverse limit of a system of CW~complexes and covering maps. This includes $P$-adic solenoids, as well as the universal hyperbolic solenoid of Teichmüller theory. Using ideas from shape theory, we classify maps between such solenoids up to homotopy, and we prove…

This paper provides a topological interpretation for number theoretic properties of quantum invariants of 3-manifolds. In particular, it is shown that the p-adic valuation of the quantum SO(3)-invariant of a 3-manifold M, for odd primes p, is bounded below by a linear function of the mod p first betti number of M. Shar…

The purpose of this article is to present a survey of our recent results on length commensurable and isospectral locally symmetric spaces. The geometric questions led us to the notion of "weak commensurability" of two Zariski-dense subgroups in a semi-simple Lie group. We have shown that for arithmetic subgroups, weak …

The leading coefficient of the Alexander polynomial of a knot is the most informative element in this invariant, and the growth of orders of the first homology of cyclic branched covering spaces is also a familiar subject. Accordingly, there are a lot of investigations into each subject. However, there is no study whic…

The Hilbert-Smith Conjecture states that if G is a locally compact group which acts effectively on a connected manifold as a topological transformation group, then G is a Lie group. A rather straightforward proof of this conjecture is given. The motivation is work of Cernavskii (``Finite-to-one mappings of manifolds'',…

These short lecture notes provide a brief introduction to the field of homology growth. They are composed out of two lectures, which I have given at the Borel seminar 2017 in Les Diablerets. We give a proof of Lück's approximation theorem, discuss generalizations and mention some related open problems. Then we discuss …

Develops arithmetic PDE geometry using Fermat quotients.

The Hilbert-Smith Conjecture states that if G is a locally compact group which acts effectively on a connected manifold as a topological transformation group, then G is a Lie group. A rather straightforward proof of this conjecture is given. The motivation is work of Cernavskii (``Finite-to-one mappings of manifolds'',…

We study the twisted knot module for the universal deformation of an ${\rm SL}_2$-representation of a knot group, and introduce an associated $L$-function, which may be seen as an analogue of the algebraic $p$-adic $L$-function associated to the Selmer module for the universal deformation of a Galois representation. We…

The paper contains a combinatorial theorem (the sequence of Newton polygons of a reccurent sequence of polynomials is quasi-linear) and two applications of it in classical and quantum topology, namely in the behavior of the $A$-polynomial and a fixed quantum invariant (such as the Jones polynomial) under filling. Our c…
