We show that the topology of uniform convergence on bounded sets is compatible with the group law of the automorphism group of a large class of spaces that are endowed with both a uniform structure and a bornology, thus yielding numerous…

We classify pairs $(X,G)$ consisting of a complex K3 surface $X$ and a finite group $G \leq Aut(X)$ such that the subgroup $G_s \lneq G$ consisting of symplectic automorphisms is among the $11$ maximal symplectic ones as classified by…

We study partition functions and thermodynamic limits for the Ising model on three families of finite graphs converging to infinite self-similar graphs. They are provided by three well-known groups realized as automorphism groups of regular…

Let $\mathcal{M}_{n,d}$ be the moduli space of semi-stable rank $n$, trace-free Higgs bundles with fixed determinant of degree $d$ on a Riemann surface of genus at least $3$. We determine the following automorphism groups of…

Given a positive integer $k$, we investigate the $k$-redcibility of self-maps in the monoid $\AA^k(X\vee Y)$, consisting of self-maps that induce isomorphisms on homology groups up to degree $k$. In general, verifying $k$-reducibility is a…

Let $A_1,...,A_k$ be a system of free factors of $F_n$. The group of relative automorphisms $Aut(F_n;A_1,...,A_k)$ is the group given by the automorphisms of $F_n$ that restricted to each $A_i$ are conjugations by elements in $F_n$. The…

Let $M$ be a $2n$-dimensional closed symplectic manifold admitting a Hamiltonian circle action with isolated fixed points. We show that if $M$ contains an $S^1$-invariant symplectic hypersurface $D$ such that $M\setminus D$ is a homology…

The special structures that arise in symplectic topology (particularly Gromov--Witten invariants and quantum homology) place as yet rather poorly understood restrictions on the topological properties of symplectomorphism groups. This…

In this paper we obtain the automorphism groups of the token graphs of some graphs. In particular we obtain the automorphism group of the $k$-token graph of the path graph $P_n$, for $n\neq 2k$. Also, we obtain the automorphism group of the…

The present paper is devoted to the classification of symplectic automorphisms of some hyperk\"{a}hler manifolds. The results contained here are an explicit classification of prime order automorphisms on manifolds of $K3^{[n]}$ type and a…

The mapping spaces of the $r$-truncated versions of the $E_n$ operads appear as the $r$-th stage of the Taylor tower for long embedding spaces. It has been shown that their rational homotopy groups can be expressed through graph homology in…

In a previous work (arXiv:0806.1503v2), we defined a family of subcomplexes of the $n$-dimensional half cube by removing the interiors of all half cube shaped faces of dimension at least $k$, and we proved that the homology of such a…

Given an irreducible non-spherical non-affine (possibly non-proper) building $X$, we give sufficient conditions for a group $G < \Aut(X)$ to admit an infinite-dimensional space of non-trivial quasi-morphisms. The result applies to all…

We study the classifying space of a twisted loop group $L_{\sigma}G$ where $G$ is a compact Lie group and $\sigma$ is an automorphism of $G$ of finite order modulo inner automorphisms. Equivalently, we study the $\sigma$-twisted adjoint…

In this mostly expository article, we consider certain homological aspects of branching laws for representations of a group restricted to its subgroups in the context of $p$-adic groups. We follow our earlier paper, ICM 2018 proceedings,…

We study the realization problem of finite groups as the group of homotopy classes of self-homotopy equivalences of finite spaces. Let $G$ be a finite group. Using an infinite family of pairwise non weakly homotopic asymmetric spaces we…

We study the automorphism groups of countable homogeneous directed graphs (and some additional homogeneous structures) from the point of view of topological dynamics. We determine precisely which of these automorphism groups are amenable…

The number of dimer-monomers (matchings) of a graph $G$ is an important graph parameter in statistical physics. Following recent research, we study the asymptotic behavior of the number of dimer-monomers $m(G)$ on the Towers of Hanoi graphs…

We improve, by a factor of 2, known homology stability ranges for the integral homology of symplectic groups over commutative local rings with infinite residue field and show that the obstruction to further stability is bounded below by…

For convex domains with $C^{1,\epsilon}$ boundary we give a precise description of the automorphism group: if an orbit of the automorphism group accumulates on at least two different closed complex faces of the boundary, then the…
