We study Farrell Nil-groups associated to a finite order automorphism of a ring $R$. We show that any such Farrell Nil-group is either trivial, or infinitely generated (as an abelian group). Building on this first result, we then show that…

Necessary and sufficient conditions for finite commutative semihypergroups to be built from abelian groups of the same order are established.

Answering a question of Dan Haran and generalizing some results of Aschbacher-Guralnick and Suzuki, we prove that given a set of primes pi, any finite group can be generated by a pi-subgroup and a pi'-subgroup. This gives a free product…

In 1993, Lubotzky and Weiss conjectured that if a compact group admits two finitely generated dense subgroups, one of which is amenable and the other has Kazhdan's property (T), then it would be finite. This conjecture was resolved in the…

We give a characterization of limits of dihedral groups in the space of finitely generated marked groups. We also describe the topological closure of dihedral groups in the space of marked groups on a fixed number of generators.

We say a group is finitely annihilated if it is the set-theoretic union of all its proper normal finite index subgroups. We investigate this new property, and observe that it is independent of several other well known group properties. For…

We show that for every positive integer $n$ there exists a simple group that is of type $\mathrm{F}_{n-1}$ but not of type $\mathrm{F}_n$. For $n\ge 3$ these groups are the first known examples of this kind. They also provide infinitely…

We derive a formula connecting the orders of the automorphism groups of a finite group and of its covering groups.

Motivated by examples in infinite group theory, we classify the finite groups whose subgroups can never be decomposed as direct products.

In this paper, we introduce a kind of decomposition of a finite group called a uniform group factorization, as a generalization of exact factorizations of a finite group. A group $G$ is said to admit a uniform group factorization if there…

Noguchi proved that the set of dominant maps from a fixed variety to a fixed hyperbolic variety is finite. We extend this result to the setting of orbifold pairs, as introduced by Campana, under suitable assumptions. Certain compactness…

We prove that there exists a group which is not finitely generated, but admits a minimal sofic shift. This answers a question of Doucha, Melleray and Tsankov. The group is of the form $(F_4 \times F_2) \rtimes F_{\infty}$. The construction…

This text is an extended version of the lecture notes for a course on representation theory of finite groups that was given by the authors during several years for graduate and postgraduate students of Novosibirsk State University and…

We prove finiteness properties for groups of homeomorphisms that have finitely many "singular points", and we describe the normal structure of such groups. As an application, we prove that every countable abelian group can be embedded into…

This article contains a basic introduction to the local study of finite groups, including a brief perspective on the theory of fusion systems and $p$-local finite groups. -- Este art\'iculo contiene una introducci\'on b\'asica al estudio…

In these notes we will survey recent results on various finitary approximation properties of infinite groups. We will discuss various restrictions on groups that are approximated for example by finite solvable groups or finite-dimensional…

We extend to the long virtual knot case the constructions first presented by A. Henrich and later generalized by the author to the framed virtual knot case. These consist of three Vassiliev invariants of order one, including a universal…

We construct first examples of infinite groups having property (T) whose Kazhdan constants admit a lower bound independent of the choice of a finite generating set.

In this paper we provide a criteria for geometric finiteness of Kleinian groups in general dimension. We formulate the concept of conformal finiteness for Kleinian groups in space of dimension higher than two, which generalizes the notion…

Let $S = \{ \infty \} \cup S_f$ be a finite set of places of $\mathbb{Q}$. Using homogeneous dynamics, we establish two new quantitative and explicit results about integral quadratic forms in three or more variables: The first is a…
