Let $\Gamma(S)$ be the pure mapping class group of a connected orientable surface $S$ of negative Euler characteristic. For ${\mathscr C}$ a class of finite groups, let $\hat{\pi}_1(S)^{\mathscr C}$ be the pro-${\mathscr C}$ completion of…

We show that for a Hecke pair $(G, \Gamma)$ the $C^*$-completions $C^*(L^1(G, \Gamma))$ and $pC^*(\bar{G})p$ of its Hecke algebra coincide whenever the group algebra $L^1(\bar{G})$ satisfies a spectral property which we call…

We compute the cohomology groups of the pure symmetric outer automorphism group $\Sigma$POut$(A_\Gamma)$ and the pure symmetric automorphism group $\Sigma$PAut$(A_\Gamma)$ of a right-angled Artin group $A_\Gamma$. Using the equivariant…

Let $\mathfrak{G}=\mathfrak{S}_{q} \overleftrightarrow{\times} \mathfrak{S}_q$ be the $\mathbb{Z}/2$-extension of the product of two symmetric groups $\mathfrak{S}_{q} \times \mathfrak{S}_q$. In this paper, we compute the…

We consider selfinjective Artin algebras whose cohomology groups are finitely generated over a central ring of cohomology operators. For such an algebra, we show that the representation dimension is strictly greater than the maximal…

Let G be a group of type FP_n and let p>1. In this paper we show that the reduced l^p-homology of G is dual to the reduced l^q-cohomology for \frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}=1. In our main theorem we show that for a group of type FP_n with a…

For a prime number $p$, we give a new restriction on pro-$p$ groups $G$ which are realizable as the maximal pro-$p$ Galois group $G_F(p)$ for a field $F$ containing a root of unity of order $p$. This restriction arises from Kummer Theory…

We introduce a cochain complex for ample groupoids $\mathcal G$ using a flat resolution defining their homology with coefficients in $\mathbb Z$. We prove that the cohomology of this cochain complex with values in a $\mathcal G$-module $M$…

We set up a general framework to study Tate cohomology groups of Galois modules along $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions of number fields. Under suitable assumptions on the Galois modules, we establish the existence of a five-term exact sequence in…

Profinite groups with a cyclotomic $p$-orientation are introduced and studied. The special interest in this class of groups arises from the fact that any absolute Galois group $G_{K}$ of a field $K$ is indeed a profinite group with a…

For odd primes p, we examine $\hat H^*(Aut(F_{2(p-1)}); \Z_{(p)})$, the Farrell cohomology of the group of automorphisms of a free group $F_{2(p-1)}$ on $2(p-1)$ generators, with coefficients in the integers localized at the prime $(p)…

Let $G$ be the fundamental group of a sapphire that admits the Sol geometry and is not a torus bundle. We determine a finite free resolution of $\mathbb{Z}$ over $\mathbb{Z}G$ and calculate a partial diagonal approximation for this…

The results of computer computations determining the automorphism groups of the groups of order 32$p$ for $p \geq 3$ are given in several tables. Presentations for the automorphism groups of the groups of order 32, which in many cases…

Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_{i} | i\in I\}$ be a partition of the set of all primes $\Bbb{P}$ and $G$ a finite group. A set ${\cal H}$ of subgroups of $G$ is said to be a \emph{complete Hall $\sigma $-set} of $G$ if every member $\ne 1$ of ${\cal…

For any odd prime $p$ we consider representations of a group of order $p$ in the symplectic group $Sp(p-1,Z[1/n])$ of $(p-1)\times(p-1)$-matrices over the ring $Z[1/n]$, $0\neq n\in N$. We construct a relation between the conjugacy classes…

Let $A$ and $H$ be two Hopf algebras. We shall classify up to an isomorphism that stabilizes $A$ all Hopf algebras $E$ that factorize through $A$ and $H$ by a cohomological type object ${\mathcal H}^{2} (A, H)$. Equivalently, we classify up…

In this paper, we study the structure of finite groups with a large number of conjugacy classes of $p$-elements for some prime $p$. As consequences, we obtain some new criteria for the existence of normal $p$-complements in finite groups.

We give a characterization of toral relatively hyperbolic virtually special groups in terms of the profinite completion. We also prove a Tits alternative for subgroups of the profinite completion $\hat G$ of a relatively hyperbolic…

In the first half of this paper, we outline the construction of a new class of abelian pro-$p$ groups, which covers all countably-based pro-$p$ groups. In the second half, we study them, and classify them up to topological isomorphism and…

Two elements in a group $G$ are said to $z$-equivalent or to be in the same $z$-class if their centralizers are conjugate in $G$. In \cite{kkj}, it was proved that a non-abelian $p$-group $G$ can have at most $\frac{p^k-1}{p-1} +1$ number…
