We prove that a finite $3$-group in the Cremona group $\mathrm{Cr}_3(\mathbb{C})$ can be generated by at most $4$ elements. This provides the last missing piece in bounding the ranks of finite $p$-subgroups in the space Cremona group.

We consider compact matrix quantum groups whose fundamental corepresentation matrix has entries which are partial isometries with central support. We show that such quantum groups have a simple representation as semi-direct product quantum…

We classify the normal CR structures on $S^3$ and their automorphism groups. Together with [3], this closes the classification of normal CR structures on contact 3-manifolds. We give a criterion to compare 2 normal CR structures, and we…

We study the dynamics of planons, particles whose mobility is restricted to a plane, through the classification of coadjoint orbits and unitary irreducible representations of the centrally extended planon group. Planons are closely related…

Let S be a compact Riemann surfaces of genus g >= 2 and G a conformal automoprhism group of order n acting on S. In this paper we give the definition of an adapted generating set and an adapted basis for the first homology group of such a…

The covering number of a finite group $G$, denoted $\sigma(G)$, is the smallest positive integer $k$ such that $G$ is a union of $k$ proper subgroups. We calculate $\sigma(G)$ for a family of primitive groups $G$ with a unique minimal…

We show that the action of Cremona transformations on the real points of quadrics exhibits the full complexity of the diffeomorphisms of the sphere, the torus, and of all non-orientable surfaces. The main result says that if X is rational,…

We decide the Borel complexity of the conjugacy problem for automorphism groups of countable homogeneous digraphs. Many of the homogeneous digraphs, as well as several other homogeneous structures, have already been addressed in previous…

Let $\Gamma$ denote the mapping class group of the plane minus a Cantor set. We show that every action of $\Gamma$ on the circle is either trivial or semi-conjugate to a unique minimal action on the so-called simple circle.

We study locally compact group topologies on semisimple Lie groups. We show that the Lie group topology on such a group $S$ is very rigid: every 'abstract' isomorphism between $S$ and a locally compact and $\sigma$-compact group $\Gamma$ is…

The Morimoto theorem states that each connected abelian complex Lie group $A$ can be decomposed into the direct product of a group on which all holomorphic functions are constant, finitely many copies of $\mathbb{C}^\times$ and a vector…

We prove that every homomorphism from the fundamental group of a planar Peano continuum to the fundamental group of a planar or one-dimensional Peano continuum is induced by a continuous map up to conjugation. This is then used to provide a…

Let Cr(k) be the Cremona group of rank 2 over a field k, i.e. the group of all k-automorphisms of k(X,Y). We determine the l.c.m. of the orders of the finite subgroups of Cr(k) of order prime to the characteristic of k.

We investigate the general structure of the automorphism group and the Lie algebra of derivations of a finitely generated vertex operator algebra. The automorphism group is isomorphic to an algebraic group. Under natural assumptions, the…

We start an analysis of geometric properties of a structure relative to a reduct. In particular, we look at definability of groups and fields in this context. In the relatively one-based case, every definable group is isogenous to a…

Let $V_r(\Sigma)$ be the generalised Thompson group defined as the automorphism group of a valid, bounded, and complete Cantor algebra. We show that that for every $n>0$ there is a $k>n,$ such that there exists a $k$-dimensional…

$\Gamma$-conformal algebra is an axiomatic description of the operator product expansion of chiral fields with simple poles at finitely many points. We classify these algebras and their representations in terms of Lie algebras and their…

We consider a method of construction of self-similar dendrites on a plane and establish main topological and metric properties of resulting class of dendrites.

If $\sigma$ is an automorphism of order $p$ of the semisimple group $\mathbf{G}$, there is a natural correspondence between mod $p$ cohomological automorphic forms on $\mathbf{G}$ and $\mathbf{G}^\sigma$. We describe this correspondence in…

We study the group of automorphisms of the affine plane preserving some given curve, over any field. The group is proven to be algebraic, except in the case where the curve is a bunch of parallel lines. Moreover, a classification of the…
