We construct spherical subgroups in infinite-dimensional classical groups $G$ (usually they are not symmetric and their finite-dimensional analogs are not spherical). We present a structure of a semigroup on double cosets $L\setminus G/L$…
In the present paper, we show that many combinatorial and topological objects, such as maps, hypermaps, three-dimensional pavings, constellations and branched coverings of the two--sphere admit any given finite automorphism group. This…
We consider a product of three copies of infinite symmetric group and its representations spherical with respect to the diagonal subgroup. We show that such representations generate functors from a certain category of simplicial…
For infinite-dimensional groups $G\supset K$ the double cosets $K\setminus G/K$ quite often admit a structure of a semigroup; these semigroups act in $K$-fixed vectors of unitary representations of $G$. We show that such semigroups can be…
The paper contains a survey of train constructions for infinite symmetric groups and related groups. For certain pairs (a group $G$, a subgroup $K$), we construct categories, whose morphisms are two-dimensional surfaces tiled by polygons…
We consider a group $GL(\infty)$ and its parabolic subgroup $B$ corresponding to partition $\infty=\infty+m+\infty$. Denote by $P$ the kernel of the natural homomorphism $B\to GL(m)$. We show that the space of double cosets of $GL(\infty)$…
We give a complete list of indecomposable characters of the infinite symmetric semigroup. In comparison with the analogous list for the infinite symmetric group, one should introduce only one new parameter, which has a clear combinatorial…
We prove that each infinite 2-group with a unique 2-element subgroup is isomorphic either to the quasicyclic 2-group or to the infinite group of generalized quaternions.
The symmetry group structures of two dimensional coupled nonlinear Shr\"{o}dinger equations are considered. We first show that the equations admit infinite dimensional symmetry algebra as well as the corresponding symmetry group depending…
Double cosets appear in many contexts in combinatorics, for example in the enumeration of certain objects up to symmetries. Double cosets in a quotient of the form $H\backslash G / H$ have an inverse, and can be their own inverse. In this…
After a quick review of the representation theory of the symmetric group, we give an exposition of the tools brought about by the so-called half-infinite wedge representation of the infinite symmetric group. We show how these can be applied…
We consider triangulations of surfaces with edges painted three colors so that edges of each triangle have different colors. Such structures arise as Belyi data (or Grothendieck dessins d'enfant), on the other hand they enumerate pairs of…
Diagram semigroups are interesting algebraic and combinatorial objects, several types of them originating from questions in computer science and in physics. Here we describe diagram semigroups in a general framework and extend our…
A Coxeter group admits infinite-dimensional irreducible complex representations if and only if it is not finite or affine. In this paper, we provide a construction of some of those representations for certain Coxeter groups using some…
We introduce poly-symplectic groupoids, which are natural extensions of symplectic groupoids to the context of poly-symplectic geometry, and define poly-Poisson structures as their infinitesimal counterparts. We present equivalent…
This is a survey on the automorphism groups in various classes of affine algebraic surfaces and the algebraic group actions on such surfaces. Being infinite-dimensional, these automorphism groups share some important features of algebraic…
In this paper, we state two combination theorems for relatively quasiconvex subgroups in a relatively hyperbolic group. Applications are given to the separability of double cosets of certain relatively quasiconvex subgroups and the…
We investigate products of certain double cosets for the symmetric group and use the findings to derive some multiplication formulas for q-Schur superalgebras. This gives a combinatorialisation of the relative norm approach developed by the…
We consider a category whose morphisms are bordisms of $n$-dimensional pseudomanifolds equipped with a certain additional structure (coloring). On the other hand, we consider the product $G$ of $(n+1)$ copies of infinite symmetric group. We…
We study higher-degree generalizations of symplectic groupoids, referred to as {\em multisymplectic groupoids}. Recalling that Poisson structures may be viewed as infinitesimal counterparts of symplectic groupoids, we describe "higher''…
