Let $X = G/\Gamma$ be a quotient of a real Lie group by a non-uniform lattice. Consider a one-parameter subgroup $F$ of $G$ that is $\operatorname{Ad}$-diagonalizable over $\mathbb{C}$ and whose action on $(X,m_X)$ is mixing. In this…

Given a finite dimensional algebra $\Lambda$, we show that a frequently satisfied finiteness condition for the category ${\cal P}^{\infty}(\Lambda\rm{-mod})$ of all finitely generated (left) $\Lambda$-modules of finite projective dimension,…

In this paper, we verify the $\ell^p$ coarse Baum-Connes conjecture for open cones and show that the $K$-theory for $\ell^p$ Roe algebras of open cones are independent of $p\in[1,\infty)$. Combined with the result of T. Fukaya and S.-I.…

The subgroup structure of Thompson's group F is not yet fully understood. The group F is a subgroup of the group PL(I) of orientation preserving, piecewise linear self homeomorphisms of the unit interval and this larger group thus also has…

If $X$ is an almost transitive Banach space with amenable isometry group (for example, if $X=L^p([0,1])$ with $1\leqslant p<\infty$) and $X$ admits a uniformly continuous map $X\overset\phi\longrightarrow E$ into a Banach space $E$…

For each prime $p$ we construct a family $\{G_i\}$ of finite $p$-groups such that $|\Aut (G_i)|/|G_i|$ goes to $0$, as $i$ goes to infinity. This disproves a well-known conjecture that $|G|$ divides $|\Aut(G)|$ for every non-abelian finite…

Let p be a prime. We prove that if a finite group G has non-abelian Sylow p-subgroups, and the class size of every p-element in G is coprime to p; then G contains a simple group as a subquotient which exhibits the same property. In addition…

Let G be a connected simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0, and g := Lie(G). We additionally assume that G is standard and is of type An. Motivated by the investigation of the geometric…

Eggert's Conjecture says that if R is a finite-dimensional nilpotent commutative algebra over a perfect field F of characteristic p, and R^{(p)} is the image of the p-th power map on R, then dim_F R \geq p dim_F R^{(p)}. Whether this very…

We determine the structure of the weak*-closed $G$-invariant ideals in the Fourier-Stieltjes algebra $B(G)$ of certain groups $G$ by means of a $K$-theoretical obstruction. The groups to which this applies are groups whose only irreducible…

We study the classical spaces $L_{p}$ and $\ell_{p}$ for the whole range $0<p<\infty$ from a metric viewpoint and give a complete Lipschitz embeddability roadmap between any two of those spaces when equipped with both their ad-hoc distances…

We show that if $Y$ is one of the spaces $\ell^q$, $c_0$, $\ell^\infty$ or ${\textstyle \bigcap_{p > b}} \ell^p$ where $0 < q,b < \infty$, and the Fr\'{e}chet space $\textstyle \bigcap_{p > a} \ell^p$ is contained in $Y$ properly, then…

For every finite $p$-group $G_p$ that is non-cyclic and non-quaternion and every positive integer $\ell\neq p$ that is greater than $2$, we prove the first non-trivial bound on $\ell$-torsion in class group of every $G_p$-extension. More…

Strongly zero-dimensional topological groups $G_1$, $G_2$, and $G$ such that $G_1\times G_2$ has positive covering dimension and $G$ contains a closed subgroup of positive covering dimension are constructed. Moreover, all finite powers of…

A topological group $G$ is called extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. This concept is linked with geometry of high dimensions (concentration of measure). We show that a von Neumann…

Let $E$ be a field, $p$ a prime number and $F/E$ a finitely-generated extension of transcendency degree $t$. This paper shows that if the absolute Galois group $\mathcal{G}_{E}$ is of nonzero cohomological $p$-dimension cd$_{p}(E)$, then…

Let $X$ be an algebraic surface with $\mathcal{L}$ an ample line bundle on $X$. Let $\Gamma(X, \mathcal{L})$ be the \emph{geometric monodromy} group associated to family of nonsingular curves in $X$ that are zero loci of sections of…

Let $U$ be a finite dimentional vector space over $\mathbb R$ or $\mathbb C$, and let $\rho:G\to GL(U)$ be a representation of a connected Lie group $G$. A linear subspace $V\subset U$ is called universal if every orbit of $G$ meets $V$. We…

We show that elementary amenable groups, which have a bound on the orders of their finite subgroups, admit a finite dimensional model for the classifying space with virtually cyclic isotropy.

We define the notion of accessibility for a pro-$p$ group. We prove that finitely generated pro-$p$ groups are accessible given a bound on the size of their finite subgroups. We then construct a finitely generated inaccessible pro-$p$…
