We show that the equational theory of the structure $\langle \omega^{\omega}: (x,y)\mapsto x+y, x\mapsto \omega x \rangle $ is finitely axiomatizable and give a simple axiom schema when the domain is the set of transfinite ordinals. We give…
Shumyatsky and the second author proved that if G is a finitely generated residually finite p-group satisfying a law, then, for almost all primes, the fact that a normal and commutator-closed set of generators satisfies a positive law…
We show that for some absolute (explicit) constant $C$, the following holds for every finitely generated group $G$, and all $d >0$: If there is some $ R_0 > \exp(\exp(Cd^C))$ for which the number of elements in a ball of radius $R_0$ in a…
In his paper "Finite groups have many conjugacy classes" (J. London Math. Soc (2) 46 (1992), 239-249), L. Pyber proved the to date best general lower bounds for the number of conjugacy classes of a finite group in terms of the order of the…
Let $(G,+)$ be a countable abelian group such that the subgroup $\{g+g\colon g\in G\}$ has finite index and the doubling map $g\mapsto g+g$ has finite kernel. We establish lower bounds on the upper density of a set $A\subset G$ with respect…
We prove that for a finitely generated linear group G over a field of positive characteristic the family of quotients by finite subgroups has finite asymptotic dimension. We use this to show that the K-theoretic assembly map for the family…
We explore connected affine algebraic groups $G$, which enjoy the following finiteness property $\rm (F)$: for every algebraic action of $G$, the closure of every $G$-orbit contains only finitely many $G$-orbits. We obtain two main results.…
We prove that for a finite first order structure $\mathbf{A}$ and a set of first order formulas $\Phi$ in its language with certain closure properties, the finitary relations on $A$ that are definable via formulas in $\Phi$ are uniquely…
In 2013 Benkart, Lopes and Ondrus introduced and studied in a series of papers the infinite-dimensional unital associative algebra $\A_h$ generated by elements $x,y,$ which satisfy the relation $yx-xy=h$ for some $0\neq h\in \FF[x]$. We…
We extend known results about commutative $C^*$-algebras generated Toeplitz operators over the unit ball to the supermanifold setup. This is obtained by constructing commutative $C^*$-algebras of super Toeplitz operators over the super ball…
Let K be a number field and let S be a finite set of places of K which contains all the Archimedean places. For any f(z) in K(z) of degree d at least 2 which is not a d-th power in \bar{K}(z), Siegel's theorem implies that the image set…
Erd\"os and Obl\'ath proved that the equation $n!\pm m!=x^p$ has only finitely many integer solutions. More general, under the ABC-conjecture, Luca showed that $P(x)=An!+Bm!$ has finitely many integer solutions for polynomials of degree…
Let $\ell \ne 3$ be a prime. We show that there are only finitely many cyclic number fields $F$ of degree $\ell$ for which the unit equation $$\lambda + \mu = 1, \qquad \lambda,~\mu \in \mathcal{O}_F^\times$$ has solutions. Our result is…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $\sigma_1(G)=\frac{1}{|G|}\sum_{H\leq G}\,|H|$. In this paper, we prove that if $\sigma_1(G)<2+\frac{11}{|G|}$\,, then $G$ is supersolvable. In particular, some new characterizations of the well-known groups…
We obtain effective bounds on the heights of algebraic integers whose orbits contain multiplicatively dependent values modulo S-integers. Our method is based on a new upper bound on the so-called S-height of polynomial values over the ring…
We establish a polynomial ergodic theorem for actions of the affine group of a countable field $K$. As an application, we deduce--via a variant of Furstenberg's correspondence principle--that for fields of characteristic zero, any "large"…
We resolve the strong Elementary Equivalence versus Isomorphism Problem for finitely generated fields. That is, we show that for every field in this class there is a first-order sentence which characterizes this field within the class up to…
We consider bivariate piecewise polynomial finite element spaces for curved domains bounded by piecewise conics satisfying homogeneous boundary conditions, construct stable local bases for them using Bernstein-B\'ezier techniques, prove…
