There exist combable groups in which the conjugacy problem is unsolvable. The isomorphism problem is unsolvable for certain recursive sequences of finite presentations of combable groups.

We extend to alternating groups $A_n$ several results about symmetric groups asserting that under various conditions on a conjugacy class, or more generally, a normal subset, $C$ of $S_n$, we have $C^2 \supseteq A_n\setminus\{1\}$

It is well known that strongly minimal groups are commutative. Whether this is true for various generalisations of strong minimality has been asked in several different settings (see Hyttinen [2002], Maesono [2007], Pillay and Tanovi\'c…

We give a short geometric proof of a result of Soardi & Woess and Salvatori that a quasitransitive graph is amenable if and only if its automorphism group is amenable and unimodular. We also strengthen one direction of that result by…

We reduce the classification of finite subgroups in compact Lie groups to that of quasi-simple ones, prove the number of conjugacy classes is finite and each cojugacy class is Zariski closed in mapping space, and classify "strongly…

We study conjugacy limits of certain of subgroups inside $\SL(2,\R)\ltimes\R^2$. These subgroups have a common feature that any two in the same category are conjugates of each other.

We demonstrate that companionships and conjunctions in double $\infty$-categories -- and more generally, in double Segal spaces -- extend to functors out of the free-living companionship and conjunction respectively. Specifically, we prove…

Over each nontrivial finite group $G$, there exists a finite system of equations having no solutions in larger finite groups but having a solution in a periodic group containing $G$. We prove several similar facts about amenable, orderable,…

For a non-abelian group $G$, its commuting conjugacy class graph $\mathcal{CCC}(G)$ is a simple undirected graph whose vertex set is the set of conjugacy classes of the non-central elements of $G$ and two distinct vertices $x^G$ and $y^G$…

It is proven in the paper, that Carter subgroups of a finite group are conjugate if Carter subgroups in the group of induced automorphisms for every non-Abelian composition factor are conjugate.

We show that conjugation by an automorphism of the complex numbers (as an abstract field) may change the topological fundamental group of a locally symmetric variety over C. As a consequence, we obtain a large class of algebraic varieties…

Let X=G/H be the quotient of a connected reductive algebraic C-group G defined over the field of complex numbers C by a finite subgroup H. We describe the topological fundamental group of the homogeneous space X, which is nonabelian when H…

We determine when two almost automorphisms of a regular tree are conjugate. This is done by combining the classification of conjugacy classes in the automorphism group of a level-homogeneous tree by Gawron, Nekrashevych and Sushchansky and…

We give a complete list of all the 70 class two groups of exponent p (p>2) and order p^k for k<9. For each of these groups the number of conjugacy classes is a polynomial in p, and the order of the automorphism group is a polynomial in p.…

We give a complete classification (up to isomorphism) of Lie conformal algebras which are free of rank two as $\C[\partial]$-modules, and determine their automorphism groups.

A dual pair formulation for asymmetric locally convex spaces is developed that strictly generalises the ordinary vector space setting. The concept of a polar topology carries over to the asymmetric case and some familiar results are…

We discuss dualisable objects in minimal subcategories of compactly generated tensor triangulated categories, paying special attention to the derived category of a commutative noetherian ring. A cohomological criterion for detecting these…

We introduce a new class of locally compact groups, namely the strongly compactly covered groups, which are the Hausdorff topological groups $G$ such that every element of $G$ is contained in a compact open normal subgroup of $G$. For…

We show that with few exceptions every local isometric automorphism of the group algebra $L^p(G)$ of a compact group $G$ is an isometric automorphism.

We study algebraic properties on a group G such that if the discrete group G has these properties then every locally compact shift continuous topology on G with adjoined zero is either compact, or discrete. We introduce electorally flexible…
