Recent results of Qu and Tuarnauceanu describe explicitly the finite p-groups which are not elementary abelian and have the property that the number of their subgroups is maximal among p-groups of a given order. We complement these results…

Finite $p$-groups with a unique $\mathcal{A}_2$-subgroup are classified up to isomorphism. A problem proposed by Berkovich and Janko is solved.

We classify all finite 2-groups that have a cyclic or dihedral maximal subgroup and determine their automorphism groups. Based on this result, we classify all pairs $ (G,\mathcal{M}) $, such that $ G $ is a finite 2-group and $ \mathcal{M}…

We introduce a class of automorphisms of rooted $d$-regular trees arising from affine actions on their boundaries viewed as infinite dimensional vector spaces. This class includes, in particular, many examples of self-similar realizations…

We show that for many right-angled Artin and Coxeter groups, all cocompact cubulations coarsely look the same: they induce the same coarse median structure on the group. These are the first examples of non-hyperbolic groups with this…

We construct here the first known examples of non-split sharply 2-transitive groups of bounded exponent in odd positive characteristic for every large enough prime $p \equiv 3 \pmod{4}$. In fact, we show that there are countably many…

In this paper, we address the following question: when is a finite $p$-group $G$ self-similar, i.e. when can $G$ be faithfully represented as a self-similar group of automorphisms of the $p$-adic tree? We show that, if $G$ is a self-similar…

It is proved that if a finite $p$-soluble group $G$ admits an automorphism $\varphi$ of order $p^n$ having at most $m$ fixed points on every $\varphi$-invariant elementary abelian $p'$-section of $G$, then the $p$-length of $G$ is bounded…

We show that the classification up to homeomorphism of closed topological nonorientable 4-manifolds with fundamental group of order 2 due to Hambleton-Kreck-Teichner can be used to classify a large set of such 4-manifolds with cyclic…

A group is said to be stable if it is isomorphic to its automorphism group. We investigate how we can extend centerless groups to construct finite stable groups with nontrivial centers. To this end, we classify all finite stable groups…

Any group $G$ gives rise to a 2-group of inner automorphisms, $\mathrm{INN}(G)$. It is an old result by Segal that the nerve of this is the universal $G$-bundle. We discuss that, similarly, for every 2-group $G_{(2)}$ there is a 3-group…

In this paper, we determine the automorphism group of the $p$-cones ($p\neq 2$) in dimension greater than two. In particular, we show that the automorphism group of those $p$-cones are the positive scalar multiples of the generalized…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. Denote a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $GL_2(\mathbb{Z}/p^n)$ and $SL_2(\mathbb{Z}/p^n)$ by $S_p(n,GL)$ and $S_p(n,SL)$ respectively. The theory of stable elements tells us that the mod-$p$ cohomology of a finite group is…

In the paper we prove that every automorphism of any adjoint Chevalley group of types B_2 or G_2 is standard, i.e., it is a composition of the ``inner'' automorphism, ring automorphism and central automorphism.

We prove that in dimensions not equal to 4, 5, or 7, the homology and homotopy groups of the classifying space of the topological group of diffeomorphisms of a disk fixing the boundary are finitely generated in each degree. The proof uses…

Let $G$ be an infinite simple group of finite Morley rank and of Pr\"{u}fer $2$-rank $1$ which admits a supertight automorphism $\alpha$ such that the fixed-point subgroup $C_G(\alpha^n)$ is pseudofinite for all integers $n > 0$. We prove…

We prove the finiteness of Selmer groups attached to lifts of certain 2-dimensional mod p representations of the absolute Galois group of Q. The mod p representation can be either even or odd. The lifts considered are the ones that were…

For any positive integer $n$, we exhibit a cofinite subgroup $\Gamma_n$ of the mapping class group of a surface of genus at most two such that $\Gamma_n$ admits an epimorphism onto a free group of rank $n$. We conclude that…

Given positive integers $p$ and $m$, where $p$ is assumed to be an odd prime, we determine the automorphism groups of $p$-groups $J$, $H$, and $K$ of orders $p^{7m}$, $p^{6m}$, and $p^{5m}$, and nilpotency classes 5, 4, and 3, respectively,…

In this note, we prove, for instance, that the automorphism group of a rational manifold X which is obtained from CP^k by a finite sequence of blow-ups along smooth centers of dimension at most r with k>2r+2 has finite image in…
