We prove that every piecewise linear manifold of dimension up to four on which a finite group acts by piecewise linear homeomorphisms admits a compatible smooth structure with respect to which the group acts smoothly. This solves a…
We classify all compact simply connected biquotients of dimension 4 and 5. In particular, all pairs of groups $(G,H)$ and embeddings $H\rightarrow G\times G$ giving rise to a particular biquotient are classified.
It is known that a lattice simplex of dimension $d$ corresponds a finite abelian subgroup of $(\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})^{d+1}$. Conversely, given a finite abelian subgroup of $(\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})^{d+1}$ such that the sum of all entries of…
We classify all compact simply connected biquotients of dimension 6 and 7. For each $6$-dimensional biquotient, all pairs of groups $(G,H)$ and homomorphisms $H\rightarrow G\times G$ giving rise to it are classified.
We determine, for all three-dimensional non-unimodular Lie groups equipped with a Lorentzian metric, the set of homogeneous geodesics through a point. Together with the results of [C] and [CM2], this leads to the full classification of…
Recently $C^m$-conforming finite elements on simplexes in arbitrary dimension are constructed by Hu, Lin and Wu. The key in the construction is a non-overlapping decomposition of the simplicial lattice in which each component will be used…
We present several known and new results on the Baire category properties in topological groups. In particular, we prove that a Baire topological group $X$ is metrizable if and only if $X$ is point-cosmic if and only if $X$ is a…
We show that the {\it full} mapping class group of any orientable closed surface with punctures admits a cocompact classifying space for proper actions of dimension equal to its virtual cohomological dimension. This was proved for closed…
Quantum metric Choquet simplices are special kinds of compact quantum metric spaces designed for distance measurement in and around the category of stably finite Elliott-classifiable $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras. The primary objective of this…
For a given pair of numbers $(d,k)$, we establish the minimal number of vertices in pure $d$-dimensional simplicial complexes with non-trivial homology in dimension $k$. Furthermore, we solve the problem under the additional constraint of…
We define the geometric simpleness for toroidal groups. We give an example of quasi-abelian variety which is geometrically simple, but not simple. We show that any quasi-abelian variety is isogenous to a product of geometrically simple…
In this article we give sufficient conditions for a group to have simple derived subgroup; the argument is based on generalising properties observed for extremely proximal micro-supported actions on the Cantor space, and generalises…
We study a class of simple dimension groups in which the cyclic subgroup generated by the order unit is replaced by a copy of $\mathbb{Z}^{2}$ satisfying some strict conditions. Our main results are necessary and sufficient conditions on a…
Bounded-cohomological dimension of groups is a relative of classical cohomological dimension, defined in terms of bounded cohomology with trivial coefficients instead of ordinary group cohomology. We will discuss constructions that lead to…
We show that if a complex has free finitely generated reduced homology groups for two consecutive dimensions and trivial homology for all other dimensions, then it must have the homotopy type of a wedge of spheres of two consecutive…
Recently, Bellamy et al. constructed an infinite series of 4-dimensional isolated symplectic sngularities with trivial local fundamental group, inspired by a question of Beauville. In this short note, we introduce an easy construction of…
We determine the dimension of every simple module for the algebra of the monoid of all relations on a finite set (i.e. Boolean matrices). This is in fact the same question as the determination of the dimension of every evaluation of a…
For every countable group G we construct a compact path connected subspace K of R^4 whose fundamental group is isomorphic to G. Our construction is much simpler than the one found recently by Virk.
We study dynamical systems arising from word maps on simple groups. We develop a geometric method based on the classical trace map for investigating periodic points of such systems. These results lead to a new approach to the search of…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$, and let $G$ be a simple simply-connected algebraic group over $k$ that is defined and split over the prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$. In this paper we investigate situations…
