We study random relational structures that are \emph{relatively exchangeable}---that is, whose distributions are invariant under the automorphisms of a reference structure $\mathfrak{M}$. When $\mathfrak{M}$ has {\em trivial definable…

We establish obstructions for groups to act by homeomorphisms on dendrites. For instance, lattices in higher rank simple Lie groups will always fix a point or a pair. The same holds for irreducible lattices in products of connected groups.…

We study the existence of transitive exchange maps with flips defined on the unit circle. We provide a complete answer to the question of whether there exists a transitive exchange map of the unit circle defined on n subintervals and having…

In this note we provide a new perspective on the topological parts of several action functionals in string and M-theory. We show that rationally these can be viewed as large gauge transformations corresponding to variations of higher…

We apply here methods of inhomogeneous random graphs to a class of random distance graphs. This provides an example outside of the rank 1 models which is still solvable as long as the largest connected component is concerned. In particular,…

Homomesy is an invariance phenomenon in dynamical algebraic combinatorics which occurs when the average value of some statistic on a set of combinatorial objects is the same over each orbit generated by a map on these objects. In this paper…

Many popular network models rely on the assumption of (vertex) exchangeability, in which the distribution of the graph is invariant to relabelings of the vertices. However, the Aldous-Hoover theorem guarantees that these graphs are dense or…

We complete the classification of isometric cohomogeneity-one actions on all symmetric spaces of noncompact type up to orbit equivalence.

This paper introduces the concept of an economic action constant, denoted ___ E , as a structural analogue to Planck's reduced constant ___ in quantum mechanics. Building on canonical quantization, we define ___ E as the fundamental scale…

A relationally exchangeable structure is a random combinatorial structure whose law is invariant with respect to relabeling its relations, as opposed to its elements. Aside from exchangeable random partitions, examples include edge…

We give a sufficient condition for a symbolic topological dynamical system with action of a countable amenable group to be an extension of the full shift, a problem analogous to those studied by Ashley, Marcus, Johnson and others for…

We compute the mapping class group action on cycles on the configuration space of the torus with one puncture, with coefficients in a local system arising in conformal field theory. This action commutes with the topological action of the…

Let $A$ be a finite group acting by automorphisms on the finite group $G$. We introduce the commuting graph $\Gamma (G,A)$ of this action and study some questions related to the structure of $G$ under certain graph theoretical conditions on…

In a social group its members are caled here agents. Any two agents from the group may interact. The interaction consists of the exchange of information and it costs some energy. There exist subgroups of interacting agents which are…

Given certain intersection cohomology sheaves on a projective variety with a torus action, we relate the cohomology groups of their tensor product to the cohomology groups of the individual sheaves. We also prove a similar result in the…

In this note we prove that a homomorphism from a compact connected simple Lie group with the norm topology to any separable SIN group is automatically continuous. This generalizes a result by Dowerk and Thom. Further, we prove some…

In this paper we investigate translated cone exchange transformations, a new family of piecewise isometries and renormalize its first return map to a subset of its partition. As a consequence we show that the existence of an embedding of an…

For finitely generated groups $G$ and $H$ equipped with word metrics, a translation-like action of $H$ on $G$ is a free action where each element of $H$ moves elements of $G$ a bounded distance. Translation-like actions provide a geometric…

We extend the notions of topological stability, shadowing and persistence from homeomorphisms to finitely generated group actions on uniform spaces and prove that an expansive action with either shadowing or persistence is topologically…

We classify compact homogeneous geometries of irreducible spherical type and rank at least 2 which admit a transitive action of a compact connected group, up to equivariant 2-coverings. We apply our classification to polar actions on…
