We describe all automorphisms of a free metabelian anticommutative algebra of rank $n\geq 3$ over a field $K$ that move only one variable while fixing the others. Such automorphisms are called Chein automorphisms in the cases of free…

Let $\pi$ be a non-degenerate permutation on at least $4$ symbols. We show that the set of uniquely ergodic interval exchange transformations with permutation $\pi$ is path-connected.

We study Abelian groups $A$ with centrally essential endomorphism ring $\text{End}\,A$. If $A$ is a such group which is either a torsion group or a non-reduced group, then the ring $\text{End}\,A$ is commutative. We give examples of Abelian…

We show that typical interval exchange transformations on three intervals are not 2-simple answering a question of Veech. Moreover, the set of self-joinings of almost every 3-IET is a Paulsen simplex.

The associahedron is an object that has been well studied and has numerous applications, particularly in the theory of operads, the study of non-crossing partitions, lattice theory and more recently in the study of cluster algebras. We…

In this paper we prove Implicit Function Theorems (IFT) for algebraic varieties defined by regular quadratic equations and, more generally, regular NTQ systems over free groups. In the model theoretic language these results state the…

We present obstruction results for self-similar groups regarding the generation of free groups. As a main consequence of our main results, we solve an open problem posed by Grigorchuk by showing that in an automaton group where a…

We show, using Wise's equitable sets criterion, that every tubular free by cyclic group acts freely on a CAT(0) cube complex. We also show that these groups have a finite index subgroup satisfying the strongest Tits alternative, which means…

Let G be an abelian group and let lambda be the smallest rank of any group whose direct sum with a free group is isomorphic to G. If lambda is uncountable, then G has lambda pairwise disjoint, non-free subgroups. There is an example where…

We show that non-abelian two-generator subgroups of right-angled Artin groups are quasi-isometrically embedded free groups. This provides an alternate proof of a theorem of A. Baudisch: that all two-generator subgroups are free or free…

This paper uses a construction of M. Keane to show that there exists a topologically mixing interval exchange transformation.

In this note, we investigate the coboundaries of interval exchange transformations of 3 intervals (3-IETs). More precisely, we show that a differentiable function with absolutely continuous derivative with bounded variation, whose integral…

We give new examples of simple finitely generated groups arising from actions of free abelian groups on the Cantor sets. As particular examples, we discuss groups of interval exchange transformations, and a group naturally associated with…

We prove that topologically isomorphic linear cellular automaton shifts are algebraically isomorphic. Using this, we show that two distinct such shifts cannot be isomorphic. We conclude that the automorphism group of a linear cellular…

We prove that, in a finitely generated residually finite group of subexponential growth, the proportion of commuting pairs is positive if and only if the group is virtually abelian. In particular, this covers the case where the group has…

Generalized interval exchange transformations (GIETs) are semi-conjugate to interval exchange transformations (IETs) when the Rauzy-Veech combinatorics is $\infty$-complete. When this semi-conjugacy is a homeomorphism, a fundamental problem…

We show that any nonabelian free group $F$ of finite rank is homogeneous; that is for any tuples $\bar a$, $\bar b \in F^n$, having the same complete $n$-type, there exists an automorphism of $F$ which sends $\bar a$ to $\bar b$. We further…

Let G be a torsion--free abelian group of finite rank. The automorphism group Aut(G) acts on the set of maximal independent subsets of G. The orbits of this action are the isomorphism classes of indecomposable decompositions of G. G…

Recent developments have revealed that symmetries need not form a group, but instead can be non-invertible. Here we use analytical arguments and numerical evidence to illuminate how spontaneous symmetry breaking of a non-invertible symmetry…

We prove that every free metabelian non--cyclic group has a finitely generated isolated subgroup which is not separable in the class of nilpotent groups. As a corollary we prove that for every prime number $p$ an arbitrary free metabelian…
