According to Markov, a subset of an abelian group G of the form {x in G: nx=a}, for some integer n and some element a of G, is an elementary algebraic set; finite unions of elementary algebraic sets are called algebraic sets. We prove that…

We classify, up to isomorphism, the $\mathbb{Z}_pG$-modules of rank $1$ (i.e., the quotients of $\mathbb{Z}_pG$) for $G$ cyclic of order $p$, where $\mathbb{Z}_p$ is the ring of $p$-adic integers. This allows us in particular to determine…

The main result asserts: Let $G$ be a reductive, affine algebraic group and let $(\rho ,V)$ be a regular representation of $G$. Let $X$ be an irreducible $\mathbb{C}^{ \times } G$ invariant Zariski closed subset such that $G$ has a closed…

We generalize two of our previous results on abelian definable groups in $p$-adically closed fields to the non-abelian case. First, we show that if $G$ is a definable group that is not definably compact, then $G$ has a one-dimensional…

We study three restrictions on normalizers or centralizers in finite p-groups, namely: (i) |N_G(H) : H| <= p^k for every H non-normal in G, (ii) |N_G(<g>) : <g>| <= p^k for every <g> non-normal in G, and (iii) |C_G(g) : <g>| <= p^k for…

We consider profinite groups as 2-sorted first order structures, with a group sort, and a second sort which acts as an index set for a uniformly definable basis of neighbourhoods of the identity. It is shown that if the basis consists of…

The rank rk(G) of a profinite group G is the supremum of d(H), where H ranges over all closed subgroups of G and d(H) denotes the minimal cardinality of a topological generating set for H. A compact topological group G admits the structure…

We obtain a bi-Lipschitz rigidity theorem for a Zariski dense discrete subgroup of a connected simple real algebraic group. As an application, we show that any Zariski dense discrete subgroup of a higher rank semisimple algebraic group $G$…

If $G$ be a finite $p$-group and $\chi$ is a non-linear irreducible character of $G$, then $\chi(1)\leq |G/Z(G)|^{\frac{1}{2}}$. In \cite{fernandez2001groups}, Fern\'{a}ndez-Alcober and Moret\'{o} obtained the relation between the character…

We classify the (semi-simple parts of the) Lie algebra of the Zariski closure of a discrete subgroup of a split simple real-algebraic Lie group, whose limit sets are minimal and such that the limit set in the space of full flags contains a…

We introduce the first provably efficient algorithm to check if a finitely generated subgroup of an almost simple semi-simple group over the rationals is Zariski-dense. We reduce this question to one of computing Galois groups, and to this…

Given a connected reductive group G over the finite field of order p and a cocharacter of G over the algebraic closure of the finite field, we can define G-Zips. The collection of these G-Zips form an algebraic stack which is a stack…

For G a group definable in an NIP theory we prove that there is a smallest type-definable subgroup H of G such that the quotient G/H is stable. This generalizes the existence of G^00, the smallest type-definable subgroup of G of bounded…

We provide some general conditions which ensure that a system of inequalities involving homogeneous polynomials with coefficients in a S-adic field has nontrivial S-integral solutions. The proofs are based on the strong approximation…

In this manuscript, a solution to Problem 18.91(b) in the Kourovka Notebook is given by proving the following theorem. Let $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of a group $G$ with $|P| = p^n$. Suppose that there is an integer $k$ such that $1 < k <…

In this paper, we get the sharp bound for $|G/O_p(G)|_p$ under the assumption that either $p^2 \nmid \chi(1)$ for all $\chi \in {\rm Irr}(G)$ or $p^2 \nmid \phi(1)$ for all $\phi \in {\rm IBr}_p(G)$. This would settle two conjectures raised…

For each nonnegative integer $g$, we classify the ramification types and monodromy groups of indecomposable coverings of complex curves $f: X\to Y$ where $X$ has genus $g$, under the hypothesis that $n:=\deg(f)$ is sufficiently large and…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a subset of primes and for each prime $p\in \mathcal{P}$, consider a subset $\mathcal{L}_p$ of $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$. We provide restriction estimates with integers $\leq N$ sifted by…

It is known that a group G definable in the field of p-adic numbers is definably locally isomorphic to the group of Q_p-points of a connected algebraic group H defined over Q_p. We show that if H is commutative then G is…

We establish pointwise ergodic theorems for operators of Radon type along subsets of prime numbers of the form $\big\{\{ \varphi_1(n)\} < \psi(n)\big\}$. We achieve this by proving $\ell^p(\mathbb{Z})$ boundedness of $r$-variations, where…
