Since 1976, it is known from the paper by V. P. Belkin that the variety $\mathrm{RA_2}$ of right alternative metabelian (solvable of index 2) algebras over an arbitrary field is not Spechtian (contains non-finitely based subvarieties). In…

We show that, if $\Gamma$ is a point group of $\mathbb{R}^{k+1}$ of order two for some $k\geq 2$ and $\mathcal S$ is a $k$-pseudomanifold which has a free automorphism of order two, then either $\mathcal S$ has a $\Gamma$-symmetric…

Let K be an algebraically closed field. For a finitely generated graded K algebra R, let cmdef R := dim R - depth R denote the Cohen-Macaulay-defect of R. Let G be a linear algebraic group over K that is reductive but not linearly…

Let $R$ be a commutative noetherian ring admitting a dualizing complex and let $\mathfrak p$ be a prime ideal of $R$. In this paper we investigate when $G(R/\frak p)$ is an $R_{\frak p}$-module. We give some necessary and sufficient…

We say that a subset $X$ quasi-isometrically boundedly generates a finitely generated group $\Gamma$ if each element $\gamma$ of a finite-index subgroup of $\Gamma$ can be written as a product $\gamma = x_1 x_2 \cdots x_r$ of a bounded…

The aim of the article is to show that there are many finite extensions of arithmetic groups which are not residually finite. Suppose $G$ is a simple algebraic group over the rational numbers satisfying both strong approximation, and the…

Let R be a class of groups closed under taking semidirect products with finite kernel and fully residually R-groups. We prove that R contains all R-by-{finitely generated residually finite} groups. It follows that a semidirect product of a…

Let $S$ be a finitely generated pro-$p$ group. Let $\Emb(S)$ be the class of profinite groups $G$ that have $S$ as a Sylow subgroup, and such that $S$ intersects non-trivially with every non-trivial normal subgroup of $G$. In this paper, we…

Let $n \ge 3$. We positively answer a question of Lubotzky and prove that every finite index subgroup of SL(n, Z) contains a finite index subgroup which is generated by two elements.

The residual finiteness growth $\text{RF}_G: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ of a finitely generated group $G$ is a function that gives the smallest value of the index $[G:N]$ with $N$ a normal subgroup not containing a non-trivial element $g$,…

In this article, we generalise a result of Pottmeyer from the multiplicative group of the algebraic numbers to almost split semiabelian varieties defined over number fields. This concerns a consequence of R\'emond's generalisation of…

We describe a flexible construction that produces triples of finitely generated, residually finite groups $M\hookrightarrow P \hookrightarrow \Gamma$, where the maps induce isomorphisms of profinite completions…

We prove a quantitative refinement of the statement that groups of polynomial growth are finitely presented. Let $G$ be a group with finite generating set $S$ and let $\operatorname{Gr}(r)$ be the volume of the ball of radius $r$ in the…

Let $F$ be a local field of characteristic $p$ and $G$ be a connected reductive group over $F$. Recall that Shalika's germ expansion of orbital integrals of regular semi-simple elements near the identity, when it exists, is a sum indexed by…

Let $X$ be the $2$-sphere $\mathbb S^2$ or the real projective plane $\mathbb {RP}^2$. We show that if $\Gamma$ is a finitely generated group acting minimally and distally on $X$, then $\Gamma$ contains a nonabelian free subgroup.

We show that real semi-simple Lie groups of higher rank contain (infinitely generated) discrete subgroups with full limit sets in the corresponding Furstenberg boundaries. Additionally, we provide criteria under which discrete subgroups of…

We prove that some skew group algebras have Noetherian cohomology rings, a property inherited from their component parts. The proof is an adaptation of Evens' proof of finite generation of group cohomology. We apply the result to a series…

Let R be the ring of algebraic integers in a number field K and let L be a maximal order in a semisimple K-algebra B. Building on our previous work, we compute the smallest number of algebra generators of L considered as an R-algebra. This…

Purpose: This study extends the structural theory of finite commutative ternary $\Gamma$-semirings into a computational and categorical framework for explicit classification and constructive reasoning. Methods: Constraint-driven enumeration…

Consider a field k of characteristic p > 0, G_r the r-th Frobenius kernel of a smooth algebraic group G, DG_r the Drinfeld double of G_r, and M a finite dimensional DG_r-module. We prove that the cohomology algebra H*(DG_r,k) is finitely…
