We establish lower bounds on the rank of matrices in which all but the diagonal entries lie in a multiplicative group of small rank. Applying these bounds we show that the distance sets of finite pointsets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ generate high…

We prove that there is a bound on the dimension of the first cohomology group of a finite group with coefficients in an absolutely irreducible in characteristic p in terms of the sectional p-rank of the group.

Motivated by the theory of graph limits, we introduce and study the convergence and limits of linear representations of finite groups over finite fields. The limit objects are infinite dimensional representations of free groups in…

We derive a lower bound on the size of finite non-cyclic quotients of the braid group that is superexponential in the number of strands. We also derive a similar lower bound for nontrivial finite quotients of the commutator subgroup of the…

A criterion for the HNN-extension of a finite p-group to be residually a finite p-group is obtained and based on this criterion the sufficient condition for residuality a finite p-group of HNN-extension with arbitrary base group is proved.…

We answer two questions about the topology of end spaces of infinite type surfaces and the action of the mapping class group that have appeared in the literature. First, we give examples of infinite type surfaces with end spaces that are…

In the paper new criteria of existence and conjugacy of Hall subgroups of finite groups are given.

We prove that for a suitable class of representations of free group tensor products are generically irreducible. In particular we prove that there exist irreducible boundary realizations with infinite dimensional fiber.

We correct an error in the paper [BLO3], and take the opportunity to examine in more detail the derived functors of inverse limits over orbit categories of (infinite) locally finite groups. The main results show how to reduce this in many…

We prove that a finitely generated soluble residually finite group has polynomial index growth if and only if it is a minimax group. We also show that if a finitely generated group with PIG is residually finite-soluble then it is a linear…

A classification of finite groups in which every 3-maximal subgroup is K-U-subnormal is given.

We present results about the Cantor-Bendixson index of some subspaces of a uniform family F of finite subsets of natural numbers with respect to the lexicographic order topology. As a corollary of our results we get that for any…

In this paper, based on research on rank-one isometries by W.Ballmann and M.Brin and recent research on rank-one isometries of Coxeter groups by P.Caprace and K.Fujiwara, we study a topological fractal structure of boundaries of Coxeter…

The well known Andrews-Curtis Conjecture [2] is still open. In this paper, we establish its finite version by describing precisely the connected components of the Andrews-Curtis graphs of finite groups. This finite version has independent…

We describe the two-generated limits of abelian-by-(infinite cyclic) groups in the space of marked groups using number theoretic methods. We also discuss universal equivalence of these limits.

Residual finiteness is known to be an important property of groups appearing in combinatorial group theory and low dimensional topology. In a recent work [2] residual finiteness of quandles was introduced, and it was proved that free…

We show that the space of left-orderings of a countable virtually solvable group is either finite or homeomorphic to a Cantor set. We also provide an explicit description of the space of left-orderings of $SOL=\Z^2\rtimes_T\Z$.

We obtain upper bounds on the composition length of a finite permutation group in terms of the degree and the number of orbits, and analogous bounds for primitive, quasiprimitive and semiprimitive groups. Similarly, we obtain upper bounds…

In this article, we prove that a semidirect product of a locally finite group with a surjunctive group is also surjunctive. We also prove that a surjunctive-by-locally finite group is again surjunctive.

Let (W,S) be a finite rank Coxeter system with W infinite. We prove that the limit weak order on the blocks of infinite reduced words of W is encoded by the topology of the Tits boundary of the Davis complex X of W. We consider many special…
