Victory for One Exceptional Officer - The Story of Asael Lubotzky. Rambam Health Care Campus .. rambam.org.il.. November '09.. During the Second Lebanon War, Officer Asael Lubotzky (now aged 26) from the esteemed Golani Infantry Brigade, was admitted to Rambam Health Care Campus after being seriously wounded from a direct anti-tank missile at the site of what became known as the Battle of Bint Jbeil. From the moment he began to receive treatment in the field and up until his arrival to the hospital, none of the treating doctors imagined that his right leg could be salvaged, but Dr. Alexander Lerner that operated on him at Rambam thought differently. Last Sunday, Asael Lubotzky stood under the chuppah and performed the breaking of the glass with his right leg. In July, 2006, Officer Lubotzky arrived to Rambam, suffering from severe burns and injuries in both his legs. In those same dramatic moments, Lubotzky met the man who would change his life forever. Upon his arrival to the hospital, he was immediately wheeled into the operating room; there he was treated initially by Professor Michael Soudry, the Director of the Orthopedic Division at Rambam, and Dr. Alexander Lerner, Senior Orthopedic Surgeon in the Department Orthopedic Surgery A. His first encounter with Dr. Lerner Lubotzky, he does not recall, "I was unconscious at the time. Only after did I discover how pessimistic the field doctors were about the extent of my injuries prior to my arrival to the hospital; they contemplated where the best amputation spot would be." The main goal of the operation at Rambam was to try to save Lubotzky legs, against all odds. After a long rehabilitation, Lubotzky underwent more than 20 orthopedic and cosmetic surgeries attended by Dr. Lerner. "Dr. Lerner stayed optimistic about the injuries to my legs from the very beginning," says Lubotzky in admiration, "He was so hopeful that he could save my leg and that one day, he'll be there to witness the "breaking of the glass" on my wedding day." These words are what kept Lubotzky going, throughout the long and often painful rehabilitation period. At retrospect, Lubotzky's injuries brought him to notable accomplishments. Less than a year ago, his story was published in the book "From the Wilderness and Lebanon," by Yedioth Books that recounts his personal experiences from the Second Lebanon War. Within a very short time, almost from the moment it was printed, it entered the best seller list in Israel. About two years ago, Lubotzky was accepted to the Hadassah Medical School in Ein Karem. "A great part of this decision, to become a doctor, was inspired by the exemplary model set by Dr. Lerner," recalls Lubotzky. About a year and a half ago, Lubotzky met his future wife, Avital Shimal (now 23) whom he wed just last week. "About two months ago, Asael called me up, and told me that he'd held up to his part of the bargain and that it was now my turn to hold up to mine," remembers Dr. Lerner. "With great excitement and emotion I stood at his wedding, watching him stand on his own two legs, under the chuppah, breaking the glass on his very first try, dancing with his family and friends, and even with me; the joy was great," tells Lerner. "Among the guests were former patients also admitted to Rambam during the Second Lebanon War, and I was happy to meet with them and see the progress of their recovery," he recalls. ,the date of the modern Jewish holiday ,(ט"ו באב) According to Lubotzky, his wedding day marked his spiritual victory, "I was injured in Tu B'Av but still on an ,(אב) not in the month of Av ,(ט"ו) Day of Love" celebrated in Israel, and the night of a full moon." "My wedding day was also on Tu" eve of a full moon," he recounts. "I think the most exciting part of that evening was the materialization of Dr. Lerner's optimism and hope." From the Wilderness and Lebanon. Asael Lubotzky was a young IDF commander during the Second Lebanon War. Leading his troops into combat, maneuvering through the deadly urban warfare of Southern Lebanon, Lubotzky was hit by a missile, irreversibly damaging both his legs. In this harrowing memoir, Lubotzky recounts the story of the two great battles of his life. The first, against Hamas and Hezbollah, when he was forced to contend with the horrors of war, the fears of his soldiers, the loss of his comrades, and the moral dilemmas of the battlefield. And the second, far more difficult one, to recover from his injuries, learn to walk again, and return to life. PUBLISHERS WEEKLY MAR 14, 2016. Lubotzky's oddly-truncated memoir recounts his time in the Israeli Army in 2006 during the Second Lebanon War, and his recovery from a serious battlefield injury. The memoir assumes some familiarity with Israel that not all readers will have, and will lose something in translation for general readers. As harrowing as Lubotzky's experiences were, his reflections on them often come off as banal rather than profound ("Suffering an injury can contribute much to a person's character"). He also skirts any consideration of the merits of the war, which was launched after a Hezbollah raid into northern Israel, although it received heavy criticism from the Israeli public. What is left is the earnest and sincere story of a young Army commander: his trials achieving military objectives and fighting an enemy willing to use human shields, then the horrendous injury and his long recovery, both physically and emotionally. Oddly, only in an author's note does Lubotzky reveal that after rehabilitation he completed medical school, now works as a physician, and fathered three children. With little depth or scope, the book will disappoint even some supporters of Israel and admirers of the IDF. Reviews by Amos Lassen.

  • A Group Theoretic Characterization of Linear Groups
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Elsevier - Publisher Connector JOURNAL OF ALGEBRA 113, 207-214 (1988) A Group Theoretic Characterization of Linear Groups ALEXANDER LUBOTZKY Institute qf Mathematics, Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel 91904 Communicated by Jacques Tits Received May 12, 1986 Let r be a group. When is f linear? This is an old problem. The first to study this question systematically was Malcev in 1940 [M], who essen- tially reduced the problem to finitely generated groups. (Note that a finitely generated group is linear over some field of characteristic zero if and only if it can be embedded in CL,(C) for some n.) Very little progress was made since that paper of Malcev, although, as linear groups are a quite special type of group, many necessary conditions were obtained, e.g., r should be residually finite and even virtually residually-p for almost all primes p, f should be virtually torsion free, and if not solvable by finite it has a free non-abelian subgroup, etc. (cf. [Z]). Of course, none of these properties characterizes the finitely generated linear groups over @. In this paper we give such a characterization using the congruence structure of r. First some definitions: For a group H, d(H) denotes the minimal number of generators for H. DEFINITION. Let p be a prime and c an integer. A p-congruence structure (with a bound c) for a group r is a descending chain of finite index normal subgroups of r = N, 2 N, 2 N, z .

Our main result is for the classical case H PSL.2; R/ where we show D that log AL .x/ 1 lim H : x x log x D 2 !1 The proofs use several different techniques: geometric (bounding the number of generators of as a function of its covolume), number theoretic (bounding the number of maximal such ) and sharp estimates on the character values of the symmetric groups (to bound the subgroup growth of ). 1. Introduction Let H be a noncompact simple Lie group with a fixed Haar measure .A discrete subgroup of H is called a lattice if . H / < . A classical theorem of n 1 Wang[Wan72] asserts that if H is not locally isomorphic to PSL2.R/ or PSL2.C/, then for every 0 < x R the number LH .x/ of conjugacy classes of lattices in H of 2 covolume at most x is finite. This result was greatly extended by Borel and Prasad [BP89]. In recent years there has been an attempt to quantify Wang’s theorem and to give some estimates on LH .x/ (see[BGLM02],[Gel04],[GLNP04],[Bel07] and[BL]).

  • HIGH DIMENSIONAL EXPANDERS 0. Introduction Expander Graphs Are
    HIGH DIMENSIONAL EXPANDERS ALEXANDER LUBOTZKY Abstract. Expander graphs have been, during the last five decades, the subject of a most fruitful interaction between pure mathematics and computer science, with influence and applications going both ways (cf. [55], [37], [56] and the references therein). In the last decade, a theory of “high dimensional expanders” has be- gun to emerge. The goal of the current paper is to describe some paths of this new area of study. 0. Introduction Expander graphs are graphs which are, at the same time, sparse and highly connected. These two seemingly contradicting properties are what makes this theory non trivial and useful. The existence of such graphs is not a completely trivial issue, but by now there are many methods to show this: random methods, Kazhdan property (T ) from representation theory of semisimple Lie groups, Ramanujan conjecture (as proved by Deligne and Drinfeld) from the theory of automorphic forms, the elementary Zig-Zag method and “interlacing polynomials”. The definition of expander graphs can be expressed in several dif- ferent equivalent ways (combinatorial, spectral gap etc. - see [55], [40]). When one comes to develop a high dimensional theory; i.e. a theory of finite simplicial complexes of dimension d ≥ 2, which resem- bles that of expander graphs in dimension d = 1, the generalizations of the different properties are (usually) not equivalent. One is ledto notions like: coboundary expanders, cosystolic expanders, topological expanders, geometric expanders, spectral expanders etc. each of which has its importance and applications. In §1, we recall very briefly several of the equivalent definitions of expander graphs (ignoring completely the wealth of their applications).

  • ELEMENTARY EQUIVALENCE of PROFINITE GROUPS by Moshe
    ELEMENTARY EQUIVALENCE OF PROFINITE GROUPS by Moshe Jarden, Tel Aviv University∗ and Alexander Lubotzky, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem∗∗ Dedicated to Dan Segal on the occasion of his 60th birthday Abstract. There are many examples of non-isomorphic pairs of finitely generated abstract groups that are elementarily equivalent. We show that the situation in the category of profinite groups is different: If two finitely generated profinite groups are elementarily equivalent (as abstract groups), then they are isomorphic. The proof ap- plies a result of Nikolov and Segal which in turn relies on the classification of the finite simple groups. Our result does not hold any more if the profinite groups are not finitely generated. We give concrete examples of non-isomorphic profinite groups which are elementarily equivalent. MR Classification: 12E30 Directory: \Jarden\Diary\JL 3 June, 2008 * Supported by the Minkowski Center for Geometry at Tel Aviv University, established by the Minerva Foundation. ** Supported by the ISF and the Landau Center for Analysis at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Introduction Let L(group) be the first order language of group theory. One says that groups G and H are elementarily equivalent and writes G ≡ H if each sentence of L(group) which holds in one of these groups holds also the other one. There are many examples of pairs of elementarily equivalent groups which are not isomorphic. For example, the group Z is elementarily equivalent to every nonprincipal ultrapower of it although it is not isomorphic to it. Less trivial examples are given by the following result: If G and H are groups satisfying G × Z =∼ H × Z, then G ≡ H [Oge91] (see [Hir69] for an example of non-isomorphic groups G and H satisfying G × Z =∼ H × Z.) More generally, Nies points out in [Nie03, p.
