In 1869, Jordan proved that the set $\mathcal{T}$ of all finite group that can be represented as the automorphism group of a tree is containing the trivial group and it is closed under taken direct product of groups of lower order in…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a (projective, geometrically irreducible, nonsingular) algebraic curve of genus $g \ge 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K}$ of odd characteristic $p\ge 0$, and let $\rm{Aut}(\mathcal{X})$ be the…

We continue the study undertaken in \cite{DV} of the exceptional Jordan algebra $J = J_3^8$ as (part of) the finite-dimensional quantum algebra in an almost classical space-time approach to particle physics. Along with reviewing known…

Topos properties of the category of covering groupoids over a fixed groupoid are discussed. A classification result for connected covering groupoids over a fixed groupoid analogous to the fundamental theorem of Galois theory is given.

We classify all Jacobian elliptic fibrations on K3 surfaces with finite automorphism group. We also classify all Jacobian elliptic fibrations with finite Mordell-Weil group on K3 surfaces with infinite automorphism group and 2-elementary…

Let $\Sigma$ be a bounded surface. We prove the Dehn-Nielsen-Baer theorem for bounded surfaces to show that the mapping class group of $\Sigma$ is isomorphic to the automorphisms of the fundamental groupoid of $\Sigma$ that fix loops around…

We present a short proof of the Jordan-H\"older theorem with uniqueness for semimodular semilattice: Given two maximal chains in a semimodular semilattice of finite height, they both have the same length. Moreover there is a unique…

We study monodromy groups of elliptic fibrations over the projective line.

The purpose of this article is to present a "Groupoid proof" to the Lefschetz fixed point formula for elliptic complexes. We shall define a "relative version" of tangent groupoid, describe the corresponding pseudodifferential calculi and…

In this paper we give an explicit description of the automorphism group of a primary Kodaira surface $X$ in terms of suitable liftings to the universal cover $\mathbb{C}^2$. As it happens for complex tori, the automorphism group of $X$ is…

The automorphism group of a curve is studied from the viewpoint of the canonical embedding and Petri's theorem. A criterion for identifying the automorphism group as an algebraic subgroup the general linear group is given. Furthermore the…

We define the singular elliptic genus for arbitrary normal surfaces, prove that it is a birational invariant, and show that it generalizes the singular elliptic genus of Borisov and Libgober and the stringy $\chi_y$ genus of Batyrev and…

In this long survey article we show that the theory of elliptic and hyperelliptic curves can be extended naturally to all superelliptic curves. We focus on automorphism groups, stratification of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_g$, binary…

The main purpose of this paper is to describe some published results and outline corresponding approaches which when applied to automorphism groups of algebras or groups establish that these groups are linear or non-linear.

This paper introduces proximal homotopic cycles, which lead to the main results in this paper, namely, extensions of the Mitsuishi-Yamaguchi Good Coverning Theorem with different forms of Tanaka good cover of an Alexandrov space equipped…

In this paper we prove several results about the lattice of imprimitivity systems of a permutation group containing a cyclic subgroup with at most two orbits. As an application we generalize the first Ritt theorem about functional…

We generalize the notions of composition series and composition factors for profinite groups, and prove a profinite version of the Jordan-Holder Theorem. We apply this to prove a Galois Theorem for infinite prosolvable extensions. In…

This article investigates a few questions about orbits of local automorphisms in manifolds endowed with rigid geometric structures. We give sufficient conditions for local homogeneity in a broad class of such structures, namely Cartan…

We prove some ergodic theorems for flat surfaces of finite area. The first result concerns such surfaces whose Teichmuller orbits are recurrent to a compact subset of $SL(2;R)/SL(S)$, where $SL(S)$ is the Veech group of the surface. In this…

We show that for an elliptic curve E defined over a number field K, the group E(A) of points of E over the adele ring A of K is a topological group that can be analyzed in terms of the Galois representation associated to the torsion points…
