We give necessary and sufficient geometric conditions for a theory definable in an o-minimal structure to interpret a real closed field. The proof goes through an analysis of thorn-minimal types in super-rosy dependent theories of finite…

We investigate the existence of left-invariant closed G$_2$-structures on seven-dimensional non-solvable Lie groups, providing the first examples of this type. When the Lie algebra has trivial Levi decomposition, we show that such a…

Let $\mathscr{S}$ be the class of all structures whose growth rate on orbits of subsets of size $n$ is not faster than $\frac{2^n}{p(n)}$ for any polynomial $p$. In this article we give a complete classification of all structures in…

Let $\lambda(G)$ be the maximum number of subgroups in an irredundant covering of the finite group $G$. We prove that if $G$ is a group with $\lambda(G) \leqslant 6$, then $G$ is supersolvable. We also describe the structure of the groups…

In this paper we initiate the study of racks from the combined perspective of combinatorics and finite group theory. A rack R is a set with a self-distributive binary operation. We study the combinatorics of the partially ordered set {\cal…

The purpose of this present paper is to investigate the geometric structure of regular overdetermined systems of second order with two independent and one dependent variables from the point of view of rank 2 prolongations. Utilizing this…

A locally compact contraction group is a pair (G,f) where G is a locally compact group and f an automorphism of G which is contractive in the sense that the forward orbit under f of each g in G converges to the neutral element e, as n tends…

The order sequence of a finite group $G$ is a non-decreasing finite sequence formed of the element orders of $G$. Several properties of order sequences were studied by P. J. Cameron and H. K. Dey in a recent paper that concludes with a list…

Let $k\subseteq K$ be a finite Galois extension of fields with Galois group $G$. Let $\mathscr{G}$ be the automorphism $k$-group scheme of $K$. We construct a canonical $k$-subgroup scheme $\underline{G}\subset\mathscr{G}$ with the property…

Let G be a noncyclic group of order 4, and let K be the ring Z of rational integers, the localization of Z at the prime 2 and the ring of 2-adic integers, respectively. We describe, up to conjugacy, all of the indecomposable subgroups in…

Given a particular collection of categorical axioms, aimed at capturing properties of the category of locales, we show that if $\mathcal{C}$ is a category that satisfies the axioms then so too is the category $[ G, \mathcal{C}]$ of…

In this article, we show that a group $G$ is the union of two proper subsemigroups if and only if $G$ has a nontrivial left-orderable quotient. Furthermore, if $G$ is the union of two proper semigroups, then there exists a minimum normal…

An l-group G is an abelian group equipped with a translation invariant lattice order. Baker and Beynon proved that G is finitely generated projective iff it is finitely presented. A unital l-group is an l-group G with a distinguished order…

We say that a finite almost simple $G$ with socle $S$ is admissible (with respect to the spectrum) if $G$ and $S$ have the same sets of orders of elements. Let $L$ be a finite simple linear or unitary group of dimension at least three over…

We study relativized Lascar groups, which are formed by relativizing Lascar groups to the solution set of a partial type $\Sigma$. We introduce the notion of a Lascar tuple for $\Sigma$ and by considering the space of types over a Lascar…

For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…

We revisit Kolchin's results on definability of differential Galois groups of strongly normal extensions, in the case where the field of constants is not necessarily algebraically closed. In certain classes of differential topological…

This is a draft of a book submitted for publication by the AMS. Its theme is the remarkable interplay, accelerating in the last few decades, between topology and the theory of orderable groups, with applications in both directions. It…

Given a group $G$ with bounded torsion that acts properly on a systolic complex, we show that every solvable subgroup of $G$ is finitely generated and virtually abelian of rank at most $2$. In particular this gives a new proof of the above…

We solve two problems from the paper "On maximal stable quotients of definable groups in NIP theories" by M. Haskel and A. Pillay, which concern maximal stable quotients of groups type-definable in NIP theories. The first result says that…
