Introduction Swami Vivekananda envisioned a University at Belur Math, West Bengal, the headquarters of the Ramakrishna Mission. In his conversation with Jamshedji Tata, it was indicated that the spirit of austerity, service and renun- ciation, traditionally associated with monasticism could be united with the quest for Truth and Universality that Science embodies. An inevitable fruit of such a synthesis would be a vigorous pursuit of science as an aspect of Karma Yoga. Truth would be sought by research and the knowledge obtained disseminated through teach- ing, making knowledge universally available. The VivekanandaSchool of Mathematical Sciences at the fledgling Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda University, headquartered at Belur, has been set up keeping these twin ide- als in mind. We shall first indicate that at the National level, a realization of these objectives would fulfill a deeply felt National need. 1.1.

  • The Monk Who Is Sold on Geometry: an Interview with Mahan Maharaj

    The Monk Who Is Sold on Geometry: an Interview with Mahan Maharaj

    The Monk Who is Sold on Geometry: An Interview with Mahan Maharaj Professor Mahan Mj is a young geometric topologist at Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda University, who combines an esoteric career as a research mathematician and teacher with that of a monk. He belongs to the monastic order, Ramakrishna Mission, founded in 1897 by Swami Vivekananda, a renowned Hindu philosopher. He is currently a Professor in the Department of Mathematics, Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda University, whose campus is located just outside Belur Math, the Headquarters of the Mission in Kolkata, India. Mahan Mj was recently awarded the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Award in the Mathematical Sciences, India’s topmost national award that recognises scientific contributions made by Indian scientists under the age of 45. Initially reluctant to be interviewed, saying that he believed in the “anonymity that a mathematician’s career affords’’, Mahan Mj graciously relented and spoke to Sujatha Ramdorai. Sujatha Ramdorai (SR): Please tell us a little about your background and early education. Mahan Mj (MM): My early schooling was at St Xavier’s College, Kolkata and then I did an Integrated MSc (Maths) degree at IIT Kanpur. SR: When did it become clear to you that a career in Mathematics was what you preferred? MM: It’s the subject I liked most at school. Nevertheless, due presumably to social conditioning, I opted to join the BTech programme at IIT Kanpur in Electrical Engineering for the “security” it would provide. This was, however, with the intention of switching to Maths after the BTech. I expressed the intention of returning to Kolkata and joining ISI (Indian Statistical Institute) Kolkata BStat, a few months into the programme as I didn’t quite enjoy Engineering studies.

    PROPAGATING QUASICONVEXITY FROM FIBERS MAHAN MJ AND PRANAB SARDAR π Abstract. Let 1 → K −→ G −→ Q be an exact sequence of hyperbolic −1 groups. Let Q1 < Q be a quasiconvex subgroup and let G1 = π (Q1). Under relatively mild conditions (e.g. if K is a closed surface group or a free group and Q is convex cocompact), we show that infinite index quasiconvex subgroups of G1 are quasiconvex in G. Related results are proven for metric bundles, developable complexes of groups and graphs of groups. 1. Introduction The aim of this paper is to provide evidence in favor of the following Scholium. Scholium 1.1. For an exact sequence π 1 → K −→ G −→ Q → 1 of hyperbolic groups, and more generally for hyperbolic metric bundles, quasicon- vexity in fibers propagates to quasiconvexity in subbundles. There are two specific examples in which the exact sequence in Scholium 1.1 has been studied: (1) When K = π1(Σ) is the fundamental group of a closed surface of genus g > 1, and Q < MCG(Σ). Here, the exact sequence comes from the Birman exact sequence π 1 → π1(Σ) −→ MCG(Σ.∗) −→ MCG(Σ) → 1, where MCG(Σ.∗) denotes the mapping class group of Σ equipped with a marked point ∗. (2) When K = Fn is the free group on n generators (n> 2), and Q < Out(Fn). Here, the exact sequence comes from the Birman exact sequence for free arXiv:2009.11521v2 [math.GT] 4 Mar 2021 groups π 1 → Fn −→ Aut(Fn) −→ Out(Fn) → 1.

    COMMUTATORS, COMMENSURATORS, AND PSL2 Z p q THOMAS KOBERDA AND MAHAN MJ Abstract. Let H ă PSL2pZq be a finite index normal subgroup which is contained in a principal congruence subgroup, and let ΦpHq‰ H denote a term of the lower central series or the derived series of H. In this paper, we prove that the commensurator of ΦpHq in PSL2pRq is discrete. We thus obtain a natural family of thin subgroups of PSL2pRq whose commensurators are discrete, establishing some cases of a conjecture of Shalom. 1. Introduction The Commensurability Criterion for Arithmeticity due to Margulis [12] [15, 16.3.3] says that among irreducible lattices in semi-simple Lie groups, arithmetic lattices are characterized as those that have dense commensura- tors. During the past decade, Zariski dense discrete subgroups of infinite covolume in semi-simple Lie groups, also known as thin subgroups [17], have gained a lot of attention. Heuristically, thin subgroups should be re- garded as non-arithmetic, even though the essential difference between a thin group and a lattice is that the former has infinite covolume in the ambi- ent Lie group. A question attributed to Shalom makes this heuristic precise in the following way: Question 1.1. [8] Suppose that Γ is a thin subgroup of a semisimple Lie group G. Is the commensurator of Γ discrete? Let X be the symmetric space of non-compact type associated to G and arXiv:1810.11429v2 [math.GR] 10 Jun 2021 X denote its Furstenberg boundary. Question 1.1 has been answered affir- mativelyB in the following cases: Date: June 11, 2021.
