We consider symplectic cocycles over two classes of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms: having compact center leaves and time one maps of Anosov flows. We prove that the Lyapunov exponents are non-zero in an open and dense set in the…

We construct a finitely generated group which is an extension of two finitely generated groups coarsely embeddable into Hilbert space but which itself does not coarsely embed into Hilbert space. Our construction also provides a new infinite…

We announce the folowing result: Any finitely generated non virtually solvable linear group over a field of characteristic zero has uniform exponential growth.

We provide an infinite family of sofic one-relator groups that are not residually solvable nor residually finite. The proof is essentially different from the one in [1], as it does not require just Magnus' decompositions.

We determine the finite non-abelian simple groups which occur as the type of a Hopf-Galois structure on a solvable extension. In the language of skew braces, our result gives a complete list of finite non-abelian simple groups which occur…

A subgroup $A$ of a group~$G$ is said to be {\sl NS-supplemented} in $G$, if there exists a subgroup~$B$ of $G$ such that $G=AB$ and whenever $X$~is a normal subgroup of~$A$ and $p\in \pi(B)$, there exists a Sylow $p$-subgroup~$B_p$ of~$B$…

A group is said to be stable if it is isomorphic to its automorphism group. We investigate how we can extend centerless groups to construct finite stable groups with nontrivial centers. To this end, we classify all finite stable groups…

For $N \geq 2$, we study the structure of definable abelian group extensions of the additive group $(\mathbb{R}^N,+)$ by countable abelian (Borel) groups $G$. Given an extension $H$ of $(\mathbb{R}^N,+)$ by $G$, we measure the definability…

We describe elementary examples of finitely presented sofic groups which are not residually amenable (and thus not initially subamenable or LEA, for short). We ask if an amalgam of two amenable groups over a finite subgroup is residually…

We prove that, for any two finite volume hyperbolic $3$-manifolds, the amalgamation of their fundamental groups along any nontrivial geometrically finite subgroup is not LERF. This generalizes the author's previous work on nonLERFness of…

We generalise the constructions of Brady and Lodha to give infinite families of hyperbolic groups, each having a finitely presented subgroup that is not of type $F_3$. By calculating the Euler characteristic of the hyperbolic groups…

We prove an accessibility result for finitely generated groups that combines Sela's acylindrical accessibility with Linell accessibility.

We present two uncountable families of finitely generated residually finite groups all having the same profinite completion. One consists of soluble groups, the other of branch groups.

Rump proved in \cite[Theorem~1]{Rump2018ClassificationOC} that if a finite skew brace has cyclic additive group, then its multiplicative group is solvable and almost Sylow cyclic. In this paper we show that this rigidity persists when the…

We prove that there exist finitely generated, stably finite algebras which are non linear sofic. This was left open by Arzhantseva and P\u{a}unescu in 2017.

We prove two conjectures of E. Khukhro and P. Shumyatsky concerning the Fitting height and insoluble length of finite groups. As a by-product of our methods, we also prove a generalization of a result of Flavell, which itself generalizes…

We prove that a limit group over Thompson's group $F$ cannot be an HNN-extension of $F$ with respect to a finitely generated subgroup. On the other hand we give an example of an $F$-limit group which is a centralized HNN-extenstions of $F$.…

We show that any subgroup of a (virtually) nilpotent-by-polycyclic group satisfies the bounded packing property of Hruska-Wise. In particular, the same is true about metabelian groups and linear solvable groups. However, we find an example…

The subgroup generated by all solvable normal subgroups in a pseudo-finite group with the descending chain condition on centralizers up to finite index is solvable. Additionally, there is no finitely generated pseudo-finite group whose…

In this paper, we deal with locally graded groups whose subgroups are either subnormal or soluble of bounded derived length, say d. In particular, we prove that every locally (soluble-by-finite) group with this property is either soluble or…
