We generalise the definition of a group algebra so that it makes sense for non-locally compact topological groups, in particular, we require that the representation theory of the group algebra is isomorphic (in the sense of Gelfand-Raikov)…
This is a survey on the automorphism groups in various classes of affine algebraic surfaces and the algebraic group actions on such surfaces. Being infinite-dimensional, these automorphism groups share some important features of algebraic…
Let $F$ be a locally compact non-archimedean field of residue characteristic $p$, $\textbf{G}$ a connected reductive group over $F$, and $R$ a field of characteristic $p$. When $R$ is algebraically closed, the irreducible admissible…
We prove an algebraic version of a classical theorem in topology, asserting that an abelian p-group action on a smooth projective variety of positive dimension cannot fix exactly one point. When the group has only two elements, we prove…
We classify the maximal algebraic subgroups of Bir(CxPP^1), when C is a smooth projective curve of positive genus.
This paper deals with the number of subgroups of a given exponent in a finite abelian group. Explicit formulas are obtained in the case of rank two and rank three abelian groups. An asymptotic formula is also presented.
Using Jacobian Elliptic functions, we introduce a novel parametrization of a hyperbolic pencil of coaxal circles which reveals a remarkable group structure on the pencil. The geometric properties of the group elements lead to a new proof of…
We define the group of almost periodic diffeomorphisms on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and on an arbitrary Lie group. We then study the properties of its Riemannian and Lie group exponential maps and provide applications to fluid equations. In…
Among connected linear algebraic groups, quasi-reductive groups generalize pseudo-reductive groups, which in turn form a useful relaxation of the notion of reductivity. We study quasi-reductive groups over non-archimedean local fields,…
We compute the number of orbit types for simply connected simple algebraic groups over algebraically closed fields as well as for compact simply connected simple Lie groups. We also compute the number of orbit types for the adjoint action…
We classify irreducible representations of connected compact Lie groups whose orbit space is isometric to the orbit space of a representation of a finite extension of (positive dimensional) toric group. They turn out to be exactly the…
The aim of this short note is to provide a proof of the decidability of the generalized membership problem for relatively quasi-convex subgroups of finitely presented relatively hyperbolic groups, under some reasonably mild conditions on…
We consider a finitely generated group acting minimally on a compact space by homeomorphsims, and assume that the Schreier graph of at least one orbit is quasi-isometric to a line. We show that the topological full group of such an action…
We show the existence of group-theoretic sections of certain geometrically pro-nilpotent by abelian arithmetic fundamental groups of hyperbolic curves over p-adic local fields which are non-geometric, i.e., which do not arise from rational…
Motivated by work of Poguntke we study the question under what conditions simple subquotients of crossed products $A\rtimes_{\alpha}G$ by (twisted) actions of abelian groups $G$ are isomorphic to simple twisted group algebras of abelian…
In this paper we introduce a new type of exponential map in semi-simple compact Lie groups, which is related to the sub-Riemannian geometry generated by the orthogonal complement of a Cartan subalgebra in a similar way to how the group…
A graph is said to be a bi-Cayley graph over a group H if it admits H as a group of automorphisms acting semiregularly on its vertices with two orbits. A non-abelian group is called an inner-abelian group if all of its proper subgroups are…
We develop a semigroup approach to representation theory for pro-Lie groups satisfying suitable amenability conditions. As an application of our approach, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between equivalence classes of unitary…
We describe the global structure of totally disconnected locally compact groups having a linear open compact subgroup. Among the applications, we show that if a non-discrete, compactly generated, topologically simple, totally disconnected…
We present a diagram surveying equivalence or strict implication for properties of different nature (algebraic, model theoretic, topological, etc.) about groups definable in o-minimal structures. All results are well-known and an extensive…
