In this note, we give new examples of type I groups generalizing a previous result of Ol'shanskii. More precisely, we prove that all closed non-compact subgroups of Aut(T_d) acting transitively on the vertices and on the boundary of a…
Let $X$ be any scheme defined over a Dedekind scheme $S$ with a given section $x\in X(S)$. We prove the existence of a pro-finite $S$-group scheme $\aleph(X,x)$ and a universal $\aleph(X,x)$-torsor dominating all the pro-finite pointed…
Some groups of real analytic diffeomorphism act n-transitively for each finite n.
Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic zero. In this paper, we consider finite $G$-equivariant morphisms $F:X\to Y$ of irreducible affine $G$-varieties. First we determine under which…
In this paper we provide a complete characterisation of transitive fractional jumps by showing that they can only arise from transitive projective automorphisms. Furthermore, we prove that such construction is feasible for arbitrarily large…
We consider the classification problem for several classes of countable structures which are "vertex-transitive", meaning that the automorphism group acts transitively on the elements. (This is sometimes called homogeneous.) We show that…
We show that the automorphism group of a certain subclass of smooth Gizatullin surfaces with a distinguished and rigid extended divisor is generated by automorphisms of A1-fibrations. Moreover, such surfaces provide examples of smooth…
We prove that every countable acylindrically hyperbolic group admits a highly transitive action with finite kernel. This theorem uniformly generalizes many previously known results and allows us to answer a question of Garion and Glassner…
We find all the possible torsion groups of $\Q$-curves over quadratic fields and determine which groups appear finitely and which appear infinitely often.
Let X be a singular real rational surface obtained from a smooth real rational surface by performing weighted blow-ups. Denote by Aut(X) the group of algebraic automorphisms of X into itself. Let n be a natural integer and let…
We give an algebraic description of the structure of the analytic universal cover of a complex abelian variety which suffices to determine the structure up to isomorphism. More generally, we classify the models of theories of "universal…
We study compact K\"ahler threefolds X with infinite fundamental group whose universal cover can be compactified. Combining techniques from $L^2$ -theory, Campana's geometric orbifolds and the minimal model program we show that this…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. An affine algebraic variety $X$ over $\mathbb{K}$ is toral if it is isomorphic to a closed subvariety of a torus $(\mathbb{K}^*)^d$. We study the group…
For $G$ a connected linear algebraic group over a $p$-adic field, we show that the action of $G(\mathbb{B}^+_{\mathrm{dR}})$ on each Schubert cell in the $\mathbb{B}_{\mathrm{dR}}^+$-affine Grassmannian is transitive in the \'{e}tale…
A detailed proof is given of a theorem describing the centraliser of a transitive permutation group, with applications to automorphism groups of objects in various categories of maps, hypermaps, dessins, polytopes and covering spaces, where…
We develop a new framework for analysing finite connected, oriented graphs of valency 4, which admit a vertex-transitive and edge-transitive group of automorphisms preserving the edge orientation. We identify a sub-family of "basic" graphs…
For a smooth quasi-affine variety $X$, the affine closure $\overline{T^*X} := \text{Spec}(\mathbb{K}[T^*X])$ contains $T^*X$ as an open subset, and its smooth locus carries a symplectic structure. A natural question is whether…
We prove that the automorphism group of a general complete intersection $X$ in a projective space is trivial with a few well-understood exceptions. We also prove that the automorphism group of a complete intersection $X$ acts on the…
Consider a connected manifold of dimension at least two and the group of compactly supported diffeomorphisms that are compactly supported isotopic to the identity. This group acts $n$-transitive: Any tuple of $n$ points can be moved to any…
We generalize the equivariant intermediate Jacobian torsor obstruction over $\mathbb{C}$ to algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero. It is an obstruction to the (projective) linearizability problem of finite group actions on…
