For any left orderable group G, we recall from work of McCleary that isolated points in the space of left orderings correspond to basic elements in the free lattice ordered group over G. We then establish a new connection between the…
The article demonstrates the procedure how to compute the Zariski closure of an orbit by an algebraic action of finitely generated group on the affine plane. First half of the algorithm is about deciding whether given finitely generated…
Let $G$ be an abelian group, and $F$ a downward directed family of subsets of $G$. The finest topology $\mathcal{T}$ on $G$ under which $F$ converges to $0$ has been described by I.Protasov and E.Zelenyuk. In particular, their description…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a linear reflection group in the sense of Vinberg to be Zariski-dense in the ambient projective general linear group. As an application, we show that every irreducible right-angled Coxeter…
Using currents with minimal singularities, we construct pointwise minimal multiplicities for a real pseudo-effective $(1,1)$-class $\alpha$ on a compact complex $n$-fold $X$, which are the local obstructions to the numerical effectivity of…
In this paper, we introduce the n-th discrete topological complexity and study its properties such as its relation with simplicial Lusternik-Schnirelmann category and how the higher dimensions of discrete topological complexity relate with…
We show that the Zariski closure of the set of hypersurfaces of degree $M$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M}$, where $M\geq 5$, which are either not factorial or not birationally superrigid, is of codimension at least $\binom{M-3}{2}+1$ in the parameter…
We compute the Zariski closure of the Kontsevich-Zorich monodromy groups arising from certain square tiled surfaces that are geometrically motivated. Specifically we consider three surfaces that emerge as translation covers of platonic…
This note provides a brief guide to the current state of the literature on Tarski's problems with emphasis on features that distinguish the approach based on combinatorial and algorithmic group theory from the topological approach to…
We construct a new class of topological surface defects in Chern-Simons theory with non-compact, non-Abelian gauge groups. These defects are characterized by isotropic subalgebras defined by solutions of the modified classical Yang-Baxter…
Let BG be a classifying variety for an exceptional simple simply connected algebraic group G. We compute the degree 3 unramified Galois cohomology of BG with values in Q/Z(2) over an arbitrary field F. Combined with a paper by Merkurjev,…
It is well-known that the existence of more than two ends in the sense of J.R. Stallings for a finitely generated discrete group $G$ can be detected on the cohomology group $\mathrm{H}^1(G,R[G])$, where $R$ is either a finite field, the…
In this work we have considered the complexity of the different structures as topological group on Z. We collect some new results, as well as some known results on the group of the integers in order to present: -A family of $2^\cont$…
In this paper we continue to develop the topological method started in Santos-San Martin \cite{ariasm} to get semigroup generators of semi-simple Lie groups. Consider a subset $\Gamma \subset G$ that contains a semi-simple subgroup $G_{1}$…
In this paper we give two families of non-metrizable topologies on the group of the integers having a countable dual group which is isomorphic to a infinite torsion subgroup of the unit circle in the complex plane. Both families are related…
A.V.Arkhangel'skii asked in 1981 if the variety $\mathfrak V$ of topological groups generated by free topological groups on metrizable spaces coincides with the class of all topological groups. We show that if there exists a real-valued…
We investigate some properties of topological groups related to disconnectedness or Archimedeanness. We prove or disprove the preservation of those under operations as subgroups, quotients, products, etc. Characterizations of…
We compute rationally the topological (complex) K-theory of the classifying space BG of a discrete group provided that G has a cocompact G-CW-model for its classifying space for proper G-actions. For instance word-hyperbolic groups and…
A semitopological group $G$ is called {\it an $n$-semitopological group}, if for any $g\in G$ with $e\not\in\overline{\{g\}}$ there is a neighborhood $W$ of $e$ such that $g\not\in W^{n}$, where $n\in\mathbb{N}$. The class of…
We show that if a group automorphism of a Cremona group of arbitrary rank is also a homeomorphism with respect to either the Zariski or the Euclidean topology, then it is inner up to a field automorphism of the base-field. Moreover, we show…
