Fix a module M over a local ring R and a group action G on M, not necessarily R-linear. To understand how large is the G-orbit of an element z\in M one looks for the large submodules of M lying in Gz. We provide the corresponding…

We take a direct approach to computing the orbits for the action of the automorphism group $\mathbb{G}_2$ of the Honda formal group law of height $2$ on the associated Lubin-Tate rings $R_2$. We prove that $(R_2/p)_{\mathbb{G}_2} \cong…

A group with a geometric action on some hyperbolic space is necessarily word hyperbolic, but on the other hand every countable group acts (metrically) properly by isometries on a locally finite hyperbolic graph. In this paper we consider…

We calculate the orbital magnetization of a confined 2DEG as a function of the number of electrons in the system. Size effects are investigated by systematically increasing the area of the confining region. The results for the finite system…

Let $Y$ be a smooth, projective curve of genus $g\geq 1$ over the complex numbers. Let $H^0_{d,A}(Y)$ be the Hurwitz space which parametrizes coverings $p:X \to Y$ of degree $d$, simply branched in $n=2e$ points, with monodromy group equal…

We consider 3-manifolds admitting the action of an involution such that its space of orbits is homeomorphic to $S^3.$ Such involutions are called hyperelliptic as the manifolds admitting such an action. We consider finite groups acting on…

In this paper we study Zimmer's conjecture for $C^1$ actions of lattice subgroup of a higher-rank simple Lie group with finite center on compact manifolds. We show that when the rank of an uniform lattice is larger than the dimension of the…

We investigate two families of divisors which we expect to play a distinguished role in the global geometry of Hurwitz space. In particular, we show that they are extremal and rigid in the small degree regime $d \leq 5$. We further show…

We study local biholomorphisms with finite orbits in some neighborhood of the origin since they are intimately related to holomorphic foliations with closed leaves. We describe the structure of the set of periodic points in dimension 2. As…

Answering a question posed by Adam Epstein, we show that the collection of conjugacy classes of polynomials admitting a parabolic fixed point and at most one infinite critical orbit is a set of bounded height in the relevant moduli space.…

Let R be a complete discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristics (0,p). Given an order p-automorphism of a formal disc (or annulus) over R, we describe the minimal semi-stable model for which the specialisations of fixed points are…

In this paper, the study of the global orbit pattern (gop) formed by all the periodic orbits of discrete dynamical systems on a finite set $X$ allows us to describe precisely the behaviour of such systems. We can predict by means of closed…

We organize fundamental properties of quasi-Hamiltonian spaces on which a finite group acts, and we apply them to the theory of moduli spaces of flat connections on an oriented compact surface with boundary.

For complete shrinking (gradient) Ricci solitons, we observe a quantification of Wylie's result that the fundamental group is finite.

Several finite complex reflection groups have a braid group which is isomorphic to a torus knot group. The reflection group is obtained from the torus knot group by declaring meridians to have order $k$ for some $k\geq 2$, and meridians are…

We describe a new class of groups of Burnside type, giving a procedure transforming an arbitrary non-free minimal action of the dihedral group on a Cantor set into an orbit-equivalent action of an infinite finitely generated periodic group.…

We study 3-braid knots of finite smooth concordance order. A corollary of our main result is that a chiral 3-braid knot of finite concordance order is ribbon.

For a given group $G$ the orientably regular maps with orientation-preserving automorphism group $G$ are used as the vertices of a graph $\O(G)$, with undirected and directed edges showing the effect of duality and hole operations on these…

We determine the image of the braid groups inside the Iwahori-Hecke algebras of type A, when defined over a finite field, in the semisimple case, and for suitably large (but controlable) order of the defining (quantum) parameter.

In this article we prove results about finite soluble groups that act with fixity 2 or 3.
