We study finite abelian groups acting on three-dimensional rationally connected varieties. We concentrate on the groups of K3 type, that is, abelian extensions by a cyclic group of groups that faithfully act on a K3 surface. In particular,…

According to the classical theorem, every irreducible algebraic variety endowed with a nontrivial rational action of a connected linear algebraic group is birationally isomorphic to a product of another algebraic variety and ${\bf P}^s$…

Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ and let $G$ be a finite group. Given a $G$-Galois $K$-algebra $K_h$, let $\mathcal{O}_h$ denote its ring of integers. If $K_h/K$ is tame, then a classical theorem of E. Noether…

Let G be a group of automorphisms of a compact K\"ahler manifold X of dimension n and N(G) the subset of null-entropy elements. Suppose G admits no non-abelian free subgroup. Improving the known Tits alternative, we obtain that, up to…

We prove that if $G$ and $H$ are finite metacyclic groups with isomorphic rational group algebras and one of them is nilpotent then $G$ and $H$ are isomorphic.

The study of actions of countable groups by automorphisms of compact abelian groups has recently undergone intensive development, revealing deep connections with operator algebras and other areas. The discrete Heisenberg group is the…

An open question is whether the map $\widetilde{K_0 }\mathbb{Z} G \rightarrow \widetilde{K_0 }\mathbb{Q} G$ in reduced $K$-theory from the integral to the rational group ring is trivial for any group $G$. We will show that this is false,…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety with commutative endomorphism algebra over a finite field $k$. The $k$-isogeny class of $A$ is uniquely determined by a Weil polynomial $f_A$ without multiple roots. We give a classification of the groups of…

We give a detailed description of the algebraic group Aut(g) of automorphisms of a simple finite dimensional Lie superalgebra g over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. We also give a description of the group of…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $W$ be a faithful representation of $G$ over {\bf C}. The group $G$ acts on the field of rational functions $\mathbf C(W)$. The aim of this paper is to give a description of the unramified cohomology group of…

Using a recent classification of $\operatorname{End}(\mathcal{D}(G))$, we determine a number of properties for $\operatorname{Aut}(\mathcal{D}(G))$, where $\mathcal{D}(G)$ is the Drinfel'd double of a finite group $G$. Furthermore, we…

In this paper we develop the theory of homogeneous functions between finite abelian groups. Here, a function $f:G\longrightarrow H$ between finite abelian groups is homogeneous of degree $d$ if $f(nx)=n^df(x)$ for all $x\in G$ and all $n$…

We classify all rational maps $H \in K(x)^n$ for which ${\rm trdeg}_K K(tH_1,tH_2,\ldots,tH_n) \le 2$, where $K$ is any field and $t$ is another indeterminate. Furthermore, we classify all such maps for which additionally $JH \cdot H = {\rm…

The goal of this paper is to prove a version of the non-abelian localization theorem for the rational equivariant K-theory of a smooth variety $X$ with the action of a linear algebraic group $G$. We then use this to prove a Riemann-Roch…

Let $X$ be a $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial compact K\"ahler klt threefold admitting an action of a free abelian group $G$, which is of positive entropy and of maximal rank. After running the $G$-equivariant log minimal model program, we show that…

If $G$ is a compact group acting continuously on a compact metric space $(X, m)$, we prove two results that generalize Dirichlet's classical theorem on Diophantine approximation. If $G$ is a noncommutative compact group of isometries, we…

We show that for any square-free natural number $n$ and any global field $K$ with $(\text{char}(K), n)=1$ containing the $n$th roots of unity, the pairs $(x,y)\in K^*\times K^*$ such that $x$ is not a norm of $K(\sqrt[n]{y})/K$ form a…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of type $E_n (n=6,7,8)$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $2$. We present examples of triples of closed reductive groups $H<M<G$ such that $H$ is $G$-completely reducible,…

Given a Lie group $G$ with finitely many components and a compact Lie group A which acts on $G$ by automorphisms, we prove that there always exists an A-invariant maximal compact subgroup K of G, and that for every such K, the natural map…

We study the groups $G$ with the curious property that there exists an element $k\in G$ and a function $f\colon G\to G$ such that $f(xk)=xf(x)$ holds for all $x\in G$. This property arose from the study of near-rings and input-output…
