There could be thousands of Introductions/Surveys of representation theory, given that it is an enormous field. This is just one of them, quite personal and informal. It has an increasing level of difficulty; the first part is intended for…
This is a textbook on arithmetic geometry with special regard to unramified Brauer groups of algebraic varieties. The topics include Galois cohomology, Brauer groups, obstructions to stable rationality, arithmetic and geometry of quadrics,…
The Bogomolov multiplier of a group $G$ introduced by Bogomolov in $1988$. After that in $2012$, Moravec introduced an equivalent definition of the Bogomolov multiplier. In this paper we generalized the Bogomolov multiplier with respect to…
The classification of finite simple strongly real groups is complete. It is easy to see that strong reality for every nonabelian finite simple group is equivalent to the fact that each element can be written as a product of two involutions.…
This note proves a generalisation to inverse semigroups of Anisimov's theorem that a group has regular word problem if and only if it is finite, answering a question of Stuart Margolis. The notion of word problem used is the two-tape word…
A finitely generated group is said to be an automata group if it admits a faithful self-similar finite-state representation on some regular $m$-tree. We prove that if $G$ is a subgroup of an automata group, then for each finitely generated…
We have written down a set of notes on compact quantum groups from which all the different aspects can be learned in an easy way and such that a lot of insight can be obtained without too much effort. Compact quantum groups have been…
We give lower bounds on the complexity of the word problem of certain non-solvable groups: for a large class of non-solvable infinite groups, including in particular free groups, Grigorchuk's group and Thompson's groups, we prove that their…
We show that every Hausdorff topological group is a group retract of a minimal topological group. This first was conjectured by Pestov in 1983. Our main result leads to a solution of some problems of Arhangelskii. One of them is the problem…
A breakthrough took place in the von Neumann algebra theory when the Tomita-Takesaki theory was established around 1970. Since then, many important issues in the theory were developed through 1970's by Araki, Connes, Haagerup, Takesaki and…
A new general and unified method of summation, which is both regular and consistent, is invented. It is based on the idea concerning a way of integers reordering. The resulting theory includes a number of explicit and closed form summation…
Kuratowski's 14-set theorem says that in a topological space, 14 is the maximum possible number of distinct sets which can be generated from a fixed set by taking closures and complements. In this article we consider the analogous questions…
Conventional quantum uncertainty relations (URs) contain dispersions of two observables. Generalized URs are known which contain three or more dispersions. They are derived here starting with suitable generalized Cauchy inequalities. It is…
This is an expanded version of my talk given at the International Conference ``Algebra and Number Theory'' dedicated to the 80th anniversary of V. E. Voskresenskii, which was held at the Samara State University in May 2007. The goal is to…
In many instances in first order logic or computable algebra, classical theorems show that many problems are undecidable for general structures, but become decidable if some rigidity is imposed on the structure. For example, the set of…
This text consists of the introduction, table of contents, and bibliography of a long manuscript (703 pages) that is currently submitted for publication. This manuscript develops an extension of Garside's approach to braid groups and…
The representation theory of the symmetric groups S_n is intimately related to combinatorics: combinatorial objects such as Young tableaux and combinatorial algorithms such as Murnaghan-Nakayama rule. In the limit as n tends to infinity,…
One of the features of modern science is the formation of stable large collaborations of researchers working together within the projects that require the concentration of huge financial and human resources. Results of such common work are…
Let $\Theta$ be a variety of algebras. In every $\Theta$ and every algebra $H$ from $\Theta$ one can consider algebraic geometry in $\Theta$ over $H$. We consider also a special categorical invariant $K_\Theta (H)$ of this geometry. The…
This book provides a self-contained introduction to geometric group theory. The topics range from an introduction of Cayley and Schreier graphs to Gromov's theorem on groups of polynomial growth and amenability. We discuss the ping-pong…
