Let $G = H\times A$ be a group, where $H$ is a purely non-abelian subgroup of $G$ and $A$ is a non-trivial abelian factor of $G$. Then, for $n \geq 2$, we show that there exists an isomorphism $\phi : Aut_{Z(G)}^{\gamma_{n}(G)}(G)…

Let O(f,Z) be the integral orthogonal group of an integral quadratic form f of signature (n,1). Let R(f,Z) be the subgroup of O(f,Z) generated by all hyperbolic reflections. Vinberg proved that if n > 29 then the reflective quotient…

We prove that if a countable group $\Gamma$ contains infinite commuting subgroups $H, H'\subset \Gamma$ with $H$ non-amenable and $H'$ ``weakly normal'' in $\Gamma$, then any measure preserving $\Gamma$-action on a probability space which…

The purpose of this article is to show that even the most elementary problems in asymptotic extremal graph theory can be highly non-trivial. We study linear inequalities between graph homomorphism densities. In the language of quantum…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite connected $G$-vertex-transitive graph and let $v$ be a vertex of $\Gamma$. If the permutation group induced by the action of the vertex-stabiliser $G_v$ on the neighbourhood $\Gamma(v)$ is permutation isomorphic to…

The non-solvable graph of a finite group G is a simple graph whose vertices are the elements of G and there is an edge between x and y if and only if the subgroup generated by x and y is not solvable. The isolated vertices in the…

We develop a theory of graph C*-algebras using path groupoids and inverse semigroups. Row finiteness is not assumed so that the theory applies to graphs for which there are vertices emitting a countably infinite set of edges. We show that…

Let $\mathbb{G}$ be a compact quantum group and $A\subseteq B$ an inclusion of $\sigma$-finite $\mathbb{G}$-dynamical von Neumann algebras. We prove that the $\mathbb{G}$-inclusion $A\subseteq B$ is strongly equivariantly amenable if and…

If $G$ is a Polish group and $\Gamma$ is a countable group, denote by $\Hom(\Gamma, G)$ the space of all homomorphisms $\Gamma \to G$. We study properties of the group $\cl{\pi(\Gamma)}$ for the generic $\pi \in \Hom(\Gamma, G)$, when…

We discuss a partial normalisation of a finite graph of finite groups $(\Gamma(-), X)$ which leaves invariant the fundamental group. In conjunction with an easy graph-theoretic result, this provides a flexible and rather useful tool in the…

Let $K$ be a spherically complete field with a non-Archimedean valuation. We define a new version of $K-$amenability for discrete groups and show that the Banach $K-$algebra $l^1(G)$ is amenable iff $G$ is $K-$amenable in our sense.

A finitely presented, torsion free, abelian-by-cyclic group can always be written as an ascending HNN extension Gamma_M of Z^n, determined by an n x n integer matrix M with det(M) \ne 0. The group Gamma_M is polycyclic if and only if…

We prove that for many nonamenable groups \Gamma, including all hyperbolic groups and all nontrivial free products, the left-right wreath product group G := (Z/2Z)^(\Gamma) \rtimes (\Gamma \times \Gamma) is W*-superrigid. This means that…

A non-commuting graph of a finite group $G$ is a graph whose vertices are non-central elements of $G$ and two vertices are adjacent if they don't commute in $G$. In this paper, we study the non-commuting graph of the group $U_{6n}$ and…

In this paper, we show that there is a net for amenable transformation groups like F{\o}lner net for amenable groups and investigate amenability of a transformation group constructed by semidirect product of groups. We introduce inner…

We present a unified general method for the asymptotic study of graphs from the so-called "subcritical"$ $ graph classes, which include the classes of cacti graphs, outerplanar graphs, and series-parallel graphs. This general method works…

A topological group $G$ is extremely amenable if every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space has a fixed point. Using the concentration of measure techniques developed by Gromov and Milman, we prove that the group of automorphisms of…

The first part of the paper centers in the study of embeddability between partially commutative groups. In [KK], for a finite simplicial graph $\Gamma$, the authors introduce an infinite, locally infinite graph $\Gamma^e$, called the…

Let $R$ be a ring with unity. The graph $\Gamma(R)$ is a graph with vertices as elements of $R$, where two distinct vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent if and only if $Ra+Rb=R$. Let $\Gamma_2(R)$ is the subgraph of $\Gamma(R)$ induced by the…

There is an established bijection between finite-index subgroups Gamma of Gamma(2) and bipartite graphs on surfaces, or, equivalently, certain triples of permutations. We utilize this relationship to study both congruence and noncongruence…
