We study singularity properties of word maps on semisimple algebraic groups and Lie algebras, generalizing the work of Aizenbud-Avni in the case of the commutator map. Given a word $w$ in a free Lie algebra $\mathcal{L}_{r}$, it induces a word map $\varphi_{w}:\mathfrak{g}^{r}\rightarrow\mathfrak{g}$ for every semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Given two words $w_{1}\in\mathcal{L}_{r_{1}}$ and $w_{2}\in\mathcal{L}_{r_{2}}$, we define and study the convolution of the corresponding word maps…

We establish new bounds on character values and character ratios for finite groups $G$ of Lie type, which are considerably stronger than previously known bounds, and which are best possible in many
Word maps, conjugacy classes, and a noncommutative Waring-type theorem

Word maps and Waring type problems

Waring's problem asks whether every natural number is a sum of g(k) fcth powers (where g is a suitable function). This was solved affirmatively by Hubert in 1909. Optimizing g(k) has been a central
