A group G is (finitely) co-Hopfian if it does not contain any proper (finite-index) subgroups isomorphic to itself. We study finitely generated groups G that admit a descending chain of proper normal finite-index subgroups, each of which is…

We introduce analogues of Soergel bimodules for complex reflection groups of rank one. We give an explicit parametrization of the indecomposable objects of the resulting category and give a presentation of its split Grothendieck ring by…

Let $M$ be a closed manifold that admits a self-cover $p:M \to M$ of degree >1. We say p is strongly regular if all its iterates are regular covers. In this case, we establish an algebraic structure theorem for the fundamental group of $M$:…

The module category of any artin algebra is filtered by the powers of its radical, thus defining an associated graded category. As an extension of the degree of irreducible morphisms, this text introduces the degree of morphisms in the…

Let R be a subring of the rationals. We want to investigate self splitting R-modules G that is Ext_R(G,G)=0 holds and follow Schultz to call such modules splitters. Free modules and torsion-free cotorsion modules are classical examples for…

We construct an embedding G of the category of graphs into the category of abelian groups such that for graphs X and Y we have Hom(GX,GY)=Z[Hom(X,Y)], the free abelian group whose basis is the set Hom(X,Y). The isomorphism is functorial in…

This is a revised version of ANT-0049. Given an elliptic curve E --> B over a base B with zero section i, we denote, letting E':= E - i(B), by L(E) the Q-vector space with basis ({s}, s \in E'(B)). Assume that B is smooth and separated over…

We prove that a self-similar free abelian group has finite rank. We apply the result to self-similar wreath products of abelian groups $G=BwrX$. We show that if $X$ is torsion-free, then $B$ is torsion of finite exponent. Furthemore, we…

Given a free product $G$, we investigate the existence of faithful free representations of the outer automorphism group $\text{Out}(G)$, or in other words of embeddings of $\text{Out}(G)$ into $\text{Out}\left(F_m\right)$ for some $m$. This…

The first part of this paper studied $\mathrm{GSp}_4$-type abelian varieties and the corresponding compatible systems of $\mathrm{GSp}_4$ representations. Techniques in \cite{BCGP} are applied to show that one can prove the potential…

The isomorphism and quasi-isomorphism relations on the $p$-local torsion-free abelian groups of rank $n\geq3$ are incomparable with respect to Borel reducibility.

Let G be a topological group such that its homology H(G) with coefficients in a principal ideal domain R is an exterior algebra, generated in odd degrees. We show that the singular cochain functor carries the duality between G-spaces and…

Using cohomological methods, we prove a criterion for the embedding of a group extension with abelian kernel into the split extension of a co-induced module. This generalises some earlier similar results. We also prove an assertion about…

Let $M$ be a module. A {\em $\delta$-cover} of $M$ is an epimorphism from a module $F$ onto $M$ with a $\delta$-small kernel. A $\delta$-cover is said to be a {\em flat $\delta$-cover} in case $F$ is a flat module. In the present paper, we…

We prove various finiteness and representability results for cohomology of finite flat abelian group schemes. In particular, we show that if $f\colon X\rightarrow \mathrm{Spec}(k)$ is a projective scheme over a field $k$ and $G$ is a finite…

We prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the graded algebra of automorphic forms on a symmetric domain of type IV to be free. From the necessary condition, we derive a classification result. Let $M$ be an even lattice of signature…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, F its algebraically closed extension, and G be the group of k-automorphisms of F endowed with a natural topology. One of the purposes of this paper is to show that any…

This work concerns the Koszul complex $K$ of a commutative noetherian local ring $R$, with its natural structure as differential graded $R$-algebra. It is proved that under diverse conditions, involving the multiplicative structure of…

Let $A$ be a simple abelian variety of dimension $g$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with Frobenius endomorphism $\pi$. This paper describes the structure of the group of rational points $A(\mathbb{F}_{q^n})$, for all $n \geq 1$,…

Let H be a Hopf algebra and A an H-simple right H-comodule algebra. It is shown that under certain hypotheses every (H,A)-Hopf module is either projective or free as an A-module and A is either a quasi-Frobenius or a semisimple ring. As an…
