In this paper, we prove an extension of Zaks' conjecture on integral domains with semi-regular proper homomorphic images (with respect to finitely generated ideals) to arbitrary rings (i.e., possibly with zero-divisors). The main result…

We will give a pure combinatorial proof of the Eisenbud-Goto conjecture for arbitrary monomial curves. Moreover, we will show that the conjecture holds for certain simplicial affine semigroup rings.

The main result of this paper amounts to a complete evaluation of the integral cohomological structure of the stable mapping class group. In particular it verifies the conjecture of D.Mumford about the rational cohomology of the stable…

In this paper, we focus on Oliver's $p$-group conjecture. We use elementary method to prove that Oliver's $p$-group conjecture holds for Sylow $p$-subgroups of unitary groups.

We show that for every prime $r$ all $r$-subgroups in the normalized units of the integral group ring of $\operatorname{PSL}(2,p^3)$ are isomorphic to subgroups of $\operatorname{PSL}(2,p^3)$. This answers a question of M. Hertweck, C.R.…

We develop a version of controlled algebra for simplicial rings. This generalizes the methods which lead to successful proofs of the algebraic K- theory isomorphism conjecture (Farrell-Jones Conjecture) for a large class of groups. This is…

We establish a general normal subgroup theorem for commensurators of lattices in locally compact groups. While the statement is completely elementary, its proof, which rests on the original strategy of Margulis in the case of higher rank…

We show that for various natural classes of groups and appropriately defined K- and L-theoretic functors, injectivity or bijectivity of the assembly map follows from the Isomorphism Conjecture being true for acyclic groups lying within that…

For G = PSL(2,p^f) denote by ZG the integral group ring, by V(ZG) the group of normalized units of ZG and let r be a prime different from p. Using the so called HeLP-method we prove, that units of r-power order in V(ZG) are rationally…

Zassenhaus conjectured that any unit of finite order in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}G$ of a finite group $G$ is conjugate in the rational group algebra of $G$ to an element in $\pm G$. We review the known weaker versions of this…

We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…

We prove the Milnor conjecture for Lie groups and the Friedlander conjecture for complex algebraic Lie groups.

In this article, we review the proofs of the first Zassenhaus Conjecture on conjugacy of torsion units in integral group rings for the alternating groups of degree 5 and 6, by Luthar-Passi and Hertweck. We describe how the study of these…

We formulate a "correct" version of the Quillen conjecture on linear group homology for certain arithmetic rings and provide evidence for the new conjecture. In this way we predict that the linear group homology has a direct summand looking…

We deduce the relative version of the equivalences relating the relative Local Global Principle and the Normality of the relative Elementary subgroups of the traditional classical groups, viz. general linear, symplectic and orthogonal…

Generalizing a result of Conway, Sloane, and Wilkes for real reflection groups, we show the Cayley graph of an imprimitive complex reflection group with respect to standard generating reflections has a Hamiltonian cycle. This is consistent…

A homotopy theoretic description is given for trivial unit conjecture in the group ring ZG.

We study fundamental groups of clique complexes associated to random graphs. We establish thresholds for their cohomological and geometric dimension and torsion. We also show that in certain regime any aspherical subcomplex of a random…

In the 1940's Graham Higman initiated the study of finite subgroups of the unit group of an integral group ring. Since then many fascinating aspects of this structure have been discovered. Major questions such as the Isomorphism Problem and…

Let U be the group of units of an infinite twisted group algebra K_\lambda G over a field K. We describe the maximal FC-subgroup of U and give a characterization of U with finitely conjugacy classes. In the case of group algebras we obtain…
