We prove that for a connected, semisimple linear Lie group $G$ the spaces of generating pairs of elements or subgroups are well-behaved in a number of ways: the set of pairs of elements generating a dense subgroup is Zariski-open in the…
Let $G$ be a classical group over a non-Archimedean local field of odd residual characteristic. Using recent work of S. Stevens, we define a certain kind of semisimple stratum, called good, and show that it provides a simple type in $G$…
The goal of this paper is to describe a theoretical construction of an infinite collection of non-classical Schottky groups. We first show that there are infinitely many non-classical noded Schottky groups on the boundary of Schottky space,…
Most of the examples of wavelet sets are for dilation sets which are groups. We find a necessary and sufficient condition under which subspace wavelet sets exist for dilation sets of the form $A B$, which are not necessarily groups. We…
We introduce some canonical topologies induced by actions of topological groups on groups and rings. For $H$ being a group [or a ring] and $G$ a topological group acting on $H$ as automorphisms, we describe the finest group [ring] topology…
Answering a question of Junker and Ziegler, we construct a countable first order structure which is not omega-categorical, but does not have any proper non-trivial reducts, in either of two senses (model-theoretic, and group-theoretic). We…
We show some basic facts about dp-minimal ordered structures. The main results are : dp-minimal groups are abelian-by-finite-exponent, in a divisible ordered dp-minimal group, any infinite set has non-empty interior, and any theory of pure…
Given a locally compact Polish space X, a necessary and sufficient condition for a group G of homeomorphisms of X to be the full isometry group of (X,d) for some proper metric d on X is given. It is shown that every locally compact Polish…
We prove that no uncountable Polish group can admit a system of generators whose associated length function satisfies the following conditions: (i) if $0 < k < \omega$, then $lg(x) \leq lg(x^k)$; (ii) if $lg(y) < k < \omega$ and $x^k = y$,…
We consider residue structures $R/G$ where $(G,+)$ is an additive subgroup of a ring $(R,+,\cdot)$, not necessarily an ideal. Special instances include Krasner's construction of quotient hyperfields, and Pumpluen's construction of…
Recently Raum has given the first examples of locally compact non-discrete groups with the simple reduced group C*-algebra, answering a question of de la Harpe. Here we construct such groups whose proof relies only on results in the…
In this article we will introduce, among others, the variety of subcomplexes and the variety of maps between complexes of given rank. Also, varieties of $\mathfrak{g}$-structure like $\mathfrak{g}$-Grassmannian, $\mathfrak{g}$-determinantal…
We classify all Polish semigroup topologies on the symmetric inverse monoid on the natural numbers. This result answers a question of Elliott et al. There are countably infinitely many such topologies. Under containment, these Polish…
We investigate the Galois structure of algebraic units in cyclic extensions of number fields and thereby obtain strong new results on the existence of independent Minkowski $S$-units.
We define some coding of Borel sets in admissible sets. Using this we generalize certain results from model theory involving admissible sets to the case of continuous actions of closed permutation groups on Polish spaces. In particular we…
Suppose $X$ is a locally compact Polish space, and $G$ is a group of lattice isometries of $C_0(X)$ which satisfies certain conditions. Then we can equip $C_0(X)$ with an equivalent lattice norm $| \! | \! | \cdot | \! | \! |$ so that $G$…
We study the global structure of moduli spaces of quasi-isogenies of polarized p-divisible groups introduced by Rapoport and Zink. Using the corresponding results for non-polarized p-divisible groups from a previous paper, we determine…
We show that a set of non-negative reals is the distance set of a separable complete metric space if and only if it is either countable or is an analytic set which has 0 as a limit point. We also consider spaces with simpler distance sets.
We announce various results concerning the structure of compactly generated simple locally compact groups. We introduce a local invariant, called the structure lattice, which consists of commensurability classes of compact subgroups with…
Quasiminimal structures play an important role in non-elementary categoricity. In this paper we explore possibilities of constructing quasiminimal models of a given first-order theory. We present several constructions with increasing…
