We give upper bounds on the essential dimension of (quasi-)simple algebraic groups over an algebraically closed field that hold in all characteristics. The results depend on showing that certain representations are generically free. In…

We classify the irreducible representations of smooth, connected affine algebraic groups over a field, by tackling the case of pseudo-reductive groups. We reduce the problem of calculating the dimension for pseudo-split pseudo-reductive…

In this paper, we introduce several notions of "dimension" of a finite group, involving sizes of generating sets and certain configurations of maximal subgroups. We focus on the inequality $m(G) \leq \mathrm{MaxDim}(G)$, giving a family of…

The small finitistic dimension $\fPD(R)$ of a ring $R$ is defined to be the supremum of projective dimensions of $R$-modules with finite projective resolutions. In this paper, we investigate the small finitistic dimensions of four types of…

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 study a class of central extensions of $\mathbb{Z}\wr\mathbb{Z}$, as first described by Hall. On the one hand, we consider groups of this type with cyclic centre, our construction yields a rich class of groups. In…

An infinite filiform Lie algebra L is residually nilpotent and its graded associated with respect to the lower central series has smallest possible dimension in each degree but is still infinite. This means that gr(L) is of dimension two in…

We construct the first examples of an algorithmically complex finitely presented residually finite groups and first examples of finitely presented residually finite groups with arbitrarily large (recursive) Dehn function and depth function.…

We examine the maximum dimension of a linear system of plane cubic curves whose $\mathbb{F}_q$-members are all geometrically irreducible. Computational evidence suggests that such a system has a maximum (projective) dimension of $3$. As a…

Bounded-cohomological dimension of groups is a relative of classical cohomological dimension, defined in terms of bounded cohomology with trivial coefficients instead of ordinary group cohomology. We will discuss constructions that lead to…

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.

In this paper, we will prove some sufficient conditions for the solvability of groups.

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $p$ be a prime. In this paper, we study the structure of finite groups with a large number of $p$-regular conjugacy classes or, equivalently, a large number of irreducible $p$-modular representations. We…

The Gordon--Rodriguez-Villegas theorem says that, in a finite group, the number of solutions to a system of coefficient-free equations is divisible by the order of the group if the rank of the matrix composed of the exponent sums of $j$-th…

We introduce the concept of quantifying the extent to which a finitely generated group is residually finite. The quantification is carried out for some examples including free groups, the first Grigorchuk group, finitely generated nilpotent…

We show that if a complete, doubling metric space is annularly linearly connected then its conformal dimension is greater than one, quantitatively. As a consequence, we answer a question of Bonk and Kleiner: if the boundary of a one-ended…

We construct a nil algebra over a countable field which has finite but non-zero Gelfand-Kirillov dimension.

Let $G$ be a finite group, and assume that $G$ has an automorphism of order at least $\rho|G|$, with $\rho\in\left(0,1\right)$. Generalizing recent analogous results of the author on finite groups with a large automorphism cycle length, we…

We prove that the finitely presentable subgroups of residually free groups are separable and that the subgroups of type $\mathrm{FP}_\infty$ are virtual retracts. We describe a uniform solution to the membership problem for finitely…

In this survey we discuss the results on the finitistic dimension of various stratified algebras. We describe what is already known, present some recent estimates, and list some open problems.
