We investigate one question regarding bicrossed products of finite groups which we believe has the potential of being approachable for other classes of algebraic objects (algebras, Hopf algebras). The problem is to classify the groups that…

We show that the group ${\Cal D}(M)$ of pseudoisotopy classes of diffeomorphisms of a manifold of dimension $\geq 5$ and of finite fundamental group is commensurable to an arithmetic group. As a result $\pi_0(\text{{\it Diff\,M}})$ is a…

We present a uniform methodology for computing with finitely generated matrix groups over any infinite field. As one application, we completely solve the problem of deciding finiteness in this class of groups. We also present an algorithm…

There has been much recent interest into those properties of a 3-manifold determined by the profinite completion of its fundamental group. In this paper we give readily computable criteria specifying precisely when two orientable graph…

We establish results concerning the profinite completions of 3-manifold groups. In particular, we prove that the complement of the figure-eight knot $S^3-K$ is distinguished from all other compact 3-manifolds by the set of finite quotients…

Let $S$ be a finitely generated pro-$p$ group. Let $\Emb(S)$ be the class of profinite groups $G$ that have $S$ as a Sylow subgroup, and such that $S$ intersects non-trivially with every non-trivial normal subgroup of $G$. In this paper, we…

We show that for any integer n and any field k of characteristic different from 2 there are at most finitely many isomorphism classes of quadratic morphisms from the projective line over k to itself with a finite postcritical orbit of size…

We prove that a finitely generated soluble residually finite group has polynomial index growth if and only if it is a minimax group. We also show that if a finitely generated group with PIG is residually finite-soluble then it is a linear…

We describe a flexible construction that produces triples of finitely generated, residually finite groups $M\hookrightarrow P \hookrightarrow \Gamma$, where the maps induce isomorphisms of profinite completions…

In this paper we describe a family of isomorphism invariants of a finitely generated Coxeter group W. Each of these invariants is the isomorphism type of a quotient group W/N of W by a characteristic subgroup N. The virtue of these…

Geometric Invariant Theory gives a method for constructing quotients for group actions on algebraic varieties which in many cases appear as moduli spaces parametrizing isomorphism classes of geometric objects (vector bundles, polarized…

We prove that two finite-dimensional commutative algebras over an algebraically closed field are isomorphic if and only if they give rise to isomorphic representations of the category of finite sets and surjective maps.

A monomial algebra is the quotient of a polynomial algebra by an ideal generated by monomials. We prove that finite-dimensional monomial algebras are characterized by their automorphism group among finite-dimensional, local algebras with…

Let $\C(\Gamma)$ be the set of isomorphism classes of the finite groups that are homomorphic images of $\Gamma$. We investigate the extent to which $\C(\Gamma)$ determines $\Gamma$ when $\Gamma$ is a group of geometric interest. If…

We prove that the invariably generating graph of a finite group can have an arbitrarily large number of connected components with at least two vertices.

We prove:(1) the existence, for every integer n > 3, of a noncompact smooth n-dimensional topological manifold whose diffeomorphism group contains an isomorphic copy of every finitely presented group; (2) a finiteness theorem on finite…

An $integral$ of a group $G$ is a group $H$ whose commutator subgroup is isomorphic to $G$. This paper continues the investigation on integrals of groups started in the work arXiv:1803.10179. We study: (1) A sufficient condition for a bound…

Let f be a nondegenerate quadratic form in at least 5 variables over a number field K and let S be a finite set of valuations of K containing all Archimedean ones. We prove that if the Witt index of f is at least 2 or it is 1 and S contains…

We study quantum isometry groups, denoted by $\mathbb{Q}(\Gamma, S)$, of spectral triples on $C^*_r(\Gamma)$ for a finitely generated discrete group coming from the word-length metric with respect to a symmetric generating set $S$. We first…

For a group G we consider the set of natural numbers n for which the nth cohomology functor of G commutes with filtered colimit systems of coefficient modules. We find that for the large class of hierarchically decomposable groups there is…
