May 21, 2021 at 14:50 comment added Zestylemonzi @rpotrie, you're right, I'd like that $0 < \delta < \infty$.
May 21, 2021 at 0:28 comment added rpotrie I don't know, but if your group is not discrete then the series never converges, so perhaps you can make some counterexample that way. I think you should ask that the group $\Gamma$ is discrete, right?
May 20, 2021 at 22:02 comment added Zestylemonzi Thanks for the comments. @YCor, it came up whilst reading about counting problems related to certain representations into GL(d,R). @rpotrie, thanks for the reference - do we know that we can associate a `nice action' to a subgroup of GL(d,R) so that the norm function behaves like displacement?
May 20, 2021 at 21:40 comment added rpotrie arxiv.org/abs/1411.6817 may be useful?
May 20, 2021 at 21:19 comment added YCor Where did the question occur?
May 20, 2021 at 21:18 comment added YCor Eventually if $\Lambda$ is the subgroup generated by $N$, then $\sum_{x\in\Lambda}e^{-\delta\|x\|}=\infty$. Hence, it is no restriction to assume that $N$ is a subgroup.

May 20, 2021 at 16:27 comment added Benjamin Steinberg Actually reading the comments to my answer a Zariski closed submonoid M of GL_n is a subgroup just because any closed subspace is Noetherian and a direct algebraic argument
May 20, 2021 at 16:26 comment added Zestylemonzi Thanks for the comment - I'll add a reference to this in the question.
May 20, 2021 at 16:22 comment added Benjamin Steinberg In more detail, my answer to mathoverflow.net/questions/246974/… shows the Zariski closure of a subsemigroup is a group over an algebraically closed field using Ax-Grothendieck. But this is also valid over R by Białynicki-Birula, A., Rosenlicht, M.: Injective Morphisms of Real Algebraic Varieties. Maybe there is a more direct argument to deduce or from the complex case

May 20, 2021 at 16:17 comment added Benjamin Steinberg The inverse of an element is in its Zariski closure so this is equivalent to whether the group generated by N is Zariski dense.
