For a finite real reflection group $W$ with Coxeter element $\gamma$ we give a uniform proof that the closed interval, $[I, \gamma]$ forms a lattice in the partial order on $W$ induced by reflection length. The proof involves the…

Given a finitely generated linear group $G$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, we construct a simple group $\Gamma$ that has the same finiteness properties as $G$ and admits $G$ as a quasi-retract. As an application, we construct a simple group of type…

For a certain class of abelian categories, we show how to make sense of the "Euler characteristic" of an infinite projective resolution (or, more generally, certain chain complexes that are only bounded above), by passing to a suitable…

We consider lattices generated by finite Abelian groups. We prove that such a lattice is strongly eutactic, which means the normalized minimal vectors of the lattice form a spherical 2-design, if and only if the group is of odd order or if…

We study a characteristic subgroup of finitely generated groups, consisting of elements with uniform upper bound for word-lengths. For a group $G$, we denote this subgroup by $G_{bound}$. We give sufficient criteria for triviality and…

We show that any action of a finite group on a finitely presentable group arises as the action of the group of self-homotopy equivalences of a space on its fundamental group. In doing so, we prove that any finite connected (abstract)…

An orbit polytope is the convex hull of an orbit under a finite group $G \leq \operatorname{GL}(d,\mathbb{R})$. We develop a general theory of possible affine symmetry groups of orbit polytopes. For every group, we define an open and dense…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite rank subgroup of $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}^*$. We prove that the multiplicative group of the field generated by all elements in the divisible hull of $\Gamma$, is free abelian modulo this divisible hull. This proves…

We classify by numerical invariants the finite subgroups $H$ of a primary abelian group $G$ for which every homomorphism or monomorphism of $H$ into $G$, or every endomorphism of $H$, extends to an endomorphism of $G$. We apply these…

We prove that two countable locally finite-by-abelian groups G,H endowed with proper left-invariant metrics are coarsely equivalent if and only if their asymptotic dimensions coincide and the groups are either both finitely-generated or…

It is shown, for a given graph group $G$, that the fixed point subgroup Fix$\,\varphi$ is finitely generated for every endomorphism $\varphi$ of $G$ if and only if $G$ is a free product of free abelian groups. The same conditions hold for…

Given a finitely generated group $\Gamma$, we study the space ${\rm Isom}(\Gamma,{\mathbb Q\mathbb U})$ of all actions of $\Gamma$ by isometries of the rational Urysohn metric space ${\mathbb Q\mathbb U}$, where ${\rm Isom}(\Gamma,{\mathbb…

This paper studies the locally uniform exponential growth and product set growth for a finitely generated group $G$ acting properly on a finite product of hyperbolic spaces. Under the assumption of coarsely dense orbits or shadowing…

We use a landmark result in the theory of Riesz spaces - Freudenthal's 1936 Spectral Theorem - to canonically represent any Archimedean lattice-ordered group $G$ with a strong unit as a (non-separating) lattice-group of real valued…

We show that a finitely generated group of analytic diffeomorphisms that is expanding and locally discrete in the analytic category is analytically conjugate to a uniform lattice of a finite covering of the group of projective maps of the…

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field and $G$ the $F$-points of a connected simply-connected reductive group over $F$. In this paper, we study the unipotent $\ell$-blocks of $G$, for $\ell \neq p$. To that end, we introduce the notion of…

We construct a finitely presented (two-sided) totally orderable group with insoluble word problem.

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

We give a simple proof of the finite presentation of Sela's limit groups by using free actions on $\bbR^n$-trees. We first prove that Sela's limit groups do have a free action on an $\bbR^n$-tree. We then prove that a finitely generated…

In this report we summarize this work, all finite simple groups $G$ can determined uniformly using their orders $|G|$ and the set $\pi_e(G)$ of their element orders.
