Let G be a compact Lie group. Let E be a principal G-bundle over a closed manifold M, and Ad(E) its adjoint bundle. In this paper we describe a new Frobenius algebra structure on h_*(Ad(E)), where h_* is an appropriate generalized homology…

We present an exposition of the Auinger-Steinberg proof of the Ribes-Zalesski\u{i} product theorem for pro-V topologies, where V is a pseudovariety of groups closed under extensions with abelian kernel. This proof is self-contained and is…

We study the language-theoretic aspects of the word problem, in the sense of Duncan & Gilman, of free products of semigroups and monoids. First, we provide algebraic tools for studying classes of languages known as super-AFLs, which…

We continue the research of an extension $\widetilde{\mid}$ of the divisibility relation to the Stone-\v Cech compactification $\beta N$. First we prove that ultrafilters we call prime actually possess the algebraic property of primality.…

Inference in expressive probabilistic models is generally intractable, which makes them difficult to learn and limits their applicability. Sum-product networks are a class of deep models where, surprisingly, inference remains tractable even…

An example of an extension of a completely simple semigroup U by a group H is given which cannot be embedded into the wreath product of U by H. On the other hand, every central extension of U by H is shown to be embeddable in the wreath…

Stallings folding theory is modified, using double coset representatives, and to applied to the study of subgroups of amalgamated products of finite rank free groups. As a first application the subgroup membership problem for such groups is…

We study the fine-grained complexity of evaluating Boolean Conjunctive Queries and their generalization to sum-of-product problems over an arbitrary semiring. For these problems, we present a general semiring-oblivious reduction from the…

An infinitary version of the notion of free products has been introduced and investigated by G.Higman. Let G_i (for i in I) be groups and ast_{i in X} G_i the free product of G_i (i in X) for X Subset I and p_{XY}: ast_{i in Y}…

There has been substantial investigation in recent years of subdirect products of limit groups and their finite presentability and homological finiteness properties. To contrast the results obtained for limit groups, Baumslag, Bridson, Holt…

We define a general product of two $n$-dimensional tensors $\mathbb {A}$ and $\mathbb {B}$ with orders $m\ge 2$ and $k\ge 1$, respectively. This product is a generalization of the usual matrix product, and satisfies the associative law.…

Products in double categories, as found in cartesian double categories, are an elegant concept with numerous applications, yet also have a few puzzling aspects. In this paper, we revisit double-categorical products from an unbiased…

We study conditions under which subdirect products of various types of algebraic structures are finitely generated or finitely presented. In the case of two factors, we prove general results for arbitrary congruence permutable varieties,…

State-of-the-art embeddings often capture distinct yet complementary discriminative features: For instance, one image embedding model may excel at distinguishing fine-grained textures, while another focuses on object-level structure.…

Let $p$ be a prime. We resolve a question posed by Min\'a\v{c}-Rogelstad-T\^an. We relate the Zassenhaus and the lower central series of pro-$p$ groups under a torsion-freeness condition. We also study graph products of (pro-$p$) groups…

(1) We show that if a presentation of the trivial group is "hard to trivialize", in the sense that lots of Tietze moves are necessary to transform it into the trivial presentation, then the associated presentation complex (which is a…

We give a survey of recent classification results for crossed product von Neumann algebras arising from measure preserving group actions on probability spaces. This includes II_1 factors with uncountable fundamental groups and the…

Let F_2 be the free group generated by x and y. In this article, we prove that the commutator of x^m and y^n is a product of two squares if and only if mn is even. We also show using topological methods that there are infinitely many…

We establish a general criterion for the finite presentability of subdirect products of groups and use this to characterize finitely presented residually free groups. We prove that, for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$, a residually free group is of…

This paper gives a free entropy theoretic perspective on amenable absorption results for free products of tracial von Neumann algebras. In particular, we give the first free entropy proof of Popa's famous result that the generator MASA in a…
