The notion of simple compact quantum group is introduced. As non-trivial (noncommutative and noncocommutative) examples, the following families of compact quantum groups are shown to be simple: (a) The universal quantum groups $B_u(Q)$ for…
We present a link between easy quantum groups, discrete groups and combinatorics. By this, we infer new connections between quantum isometry groups, reflection groups, varieties of groups and the combinatorics of partitions. More precisely,…
In a previous paper, we defined a higher dimensional analog of Thompson's group V, and proved that it is simple, infinite, finitely generated, and not isomorphic to any of the known Thompson groups. There are other Thompson groups that are…
We propose a general conjecture on decompositions of finite simple groups as products of conjugates of an arbitrary subset. We prove this conjecture for bounded subsets of arbitrary finite simple groups, and for large subsets of groups of…
We classify simple groups that act by birational transformations on compact complex K\"ahler surfaces. Moreover, we show that every finitely generated simple group that acts non-trivially by birational transformations on a projective…
This is the first in a sequence of papers that will develop the theory of automorphisms of nonsolvable finite groups. The sequence will culminate in a new proof of McBride's Nonsolvable Signalizer Functor Theorem, which is one of the…
We exhibit classes of groups in which the word problem is uniformly solvable but in which there is no algorithm that can compute finite presentations for finitely presentable subgroups. Direct products of hyperbolic groups, groups of…
Groups definable in simple theories retain the chain conditions and decomposition properties known from stable groups, up to commensurability. In the small case, if a generic type of G is not foreign to some type q, there is a q-internal…
The Burnside Problem asks whether a finitely generated group of exponent n is finite. We present a solution for 2-generator groups of prime power exponent. Results of P. Hall and G. Higman extends the finiteness conclusion to groups having…
We exhibit infinitely many natural numbers $n$ for which there exists at least one insolvable group of order $n$, and yet the holomorph of any solvable group of order $n$ has no insolvable regular subgroup. We also solve Problem 19.90 (d)…
The quadruple $(1\,484\,801, 1\,203\,120, 1\,169\,407, 1\,157\,520)$ already known is essentially the only non-trivial solution of the Diophantine equation $x^4 + 2 y^4 = z^4 + 4 w^4$ for $|x|$, $|y|$, $|z|$, and $|w|$ up to one hundred…
Let $k$ be a nonperfect separably closed field. Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over $k$. We study rationality problems for Serre's notion of complete reducibility of subgroups of $G$. In particular, we present a…
We consider compact matrix quantum groups whose fundamental corepresentation matrix has entries which are partial isometries with central support. We show that such quantum groups have a simple representation as semi-direct product quantum…
We construct an analogue of Neumann's affiliated algebras for sofic group algebras over arbitrary fields. Consequently, we settle Kaplansky's direct finiteness conjecture for sofic groups.
We construct and study finitely presented groups with quadratic Dehn function (QD-groups) and present the following applications of the method developed in our recent papers. (1) The isomorphism problem is undecidable in the class of…
We introduce the notion of the depth of a finite group $G$, defined as the minimal length of an unrefinable chain of subgroups from $G$ to the trivial subgroup. In this paper we investigate the depth of (non-abelian) finite simple groups.…
For a finite group $G$, let $d(G)$ denote the minimal number of elements required to generate $G$. In this paper, given a finite almost simple group $G$ and any maximal subgroup $H$ of $G$, we determine a precise upper bound for $d(H)$. In…
Suppose $G$ is a simple group. For any nontrivial elements $g$ and $h$, $g$ can be written as a finite product of conjugates of $h$ or the inverse of $h$. G is called uniformly simple if the length of such an expression is uniformly…
We investigate simple endotrivial modules of finite quasi-simple groups and classify them in several important cases. This is motivated by a recent result of Robinson showing that simple endotrivial modules of most groups come from…
