Strong subgroup recurrence and the Nevo–Stuck–Zimmer theorem

open access: yesProceedings of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 130, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract Let Γ$\Gamma$ be a countable group and Sub(Γ)$\mathrm{Sub}(\Gamma)$ its Chabauty space, namely, the compact Γ$\Gamma$‐space consisting of all subgroups of Γ$\Gamma$. We call a subgroup Δ∈Sub(Γ)$\Delta \in \mathrm{Sub}(\Gamma)$ a boomerang subgroup if for every γ∈Γ$\gamma \in \Gamma$, γniΔγ−ni→Δ$\gamma ^{n_i} \Delta \gamma ^{-n_i} \rightarrow ...

Reduction in Global Lightning Activity During the COVID Pandemic

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.
Abstract The effect of anthropogenic aerosols on lightning is one of the least understood aspects of human‐induced climate change. Global aerosol clearly diminished during the COVID pandemic by 7.6%. A pronounced decrease in global lightning activity in the range 3.0%–5.8% is identified from various detection systems during this natural experiment. The
