We develop a theory of additive group actions on affine ind-schemes through a purely algebraic and topological framework. Affine ind-schemes are described via complete, second-countable, linearly topologized rings, and actions of the…
We show that every effectively closed action of a finitely generated group $G$ on a closed subset of $\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ can be obtained as a topological factor of the $G$-subaction of a $(G \times H_1 \times H_2)$-subshift of finite…
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $A_1,\ldots,A_k$ be a collection of subsets of $G$ such that $G=A_1\ldots A_k$ is the product of all the $A_i$'s with $|G|=|A_1|\ldots|A_k|$. We write $G=A_1\cdot\ldots\cdot A_k$ and call this a $k$-fold…
We explore transformation groups of manifolds of the form $M\times S^n$, where $M$ is an asymmetric manifold, i.e. a manifold which does not admit any non-trivial action of a finite group. In particular, we prove that for $n=2$ there exists…
We give a sufficient condition for a symbolic topological dynamical system with action of a countable amenable group to be an extension of the full shift, a problem analogous to those studied by Ashley, Marcus, Johnson and others for…
We consider finitely presented,residually finite groups $G$ and finitely generated normal subgroups $A$ such that the inclusion $A\hookrightarrow G$ induces an isomorphism from the profinite completion of $A$ to a direct factor of the…
A finite group $G$ is called $k$-factorizable if for every ordered factorization $|G|=a_1\cdots a_k$ into integers each greater than $1$ there exist subsets $A_1,\dots,A_k\subseteq G$ such that $|A_i|=a_i$ for each $i$ and $G=A_1\cdots…
We show that if $G$ is a a countable amenable group with the comparison property, and $X$ is a strongly irreducible $G$-shift satisfying certain aperiodicity conditions, then $X$ factors onto the full $G$-shift over $N$ symbols, so long as…
Let $F$ be a field, $p$ a prime number, $X$ an indeterminate over $F$, $D_n =F[X^{\frac{1}{p^n}}, X^{-\frac{1}{p^n}}]$ for each integer $n \geq 0$ and $D = \bigcup\limits_{n\in\mathbb{N}_0}D_n.$ Then $D$ is a one-dimensional B{\'e}zout…
We extend \cite{G} to the nonsemisimple case. We define and study exact factorizations $\B=\A\bullet \C$ of a finite tensor category $\B$ into a product of two tensor subcategories $\A,\C\subset \B$, and relate exact factorizations of…
We consider factorizations $G=XY$ where $G$ is a general group, $X$ and $Y$ are normal subsets of $G$ and any $g\in G$ has a unique representation $g=xy$ with $x\in X$ and $y\in Y$. This definition coincides with the customary and…
Let $X$ be a smooth scheme with an action of a reductive algebraic group $G$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic zero. We construct an action of the extended affine Braid group on the $G$-equivariant absolute derived…
We define the finite extension property for $d$-dimensional subshifts, which generalizes the topological strong spatial mixing condition defined by Brice\~no (2016), and we prove that this property is invariant under topological conjugacy.…
An action of a group $G$ is highly transitive if $G$ acts transitively on $k$-tuples of distinct points for all $k \geq 1$. Many examples of groups with a rich geometric or dynamical action admit highly transitive actions. We prove that if…
We introduce the factorization graph of a finite group and study its connectedness and forbidden structures. We characterize all finite groups with connected factorization graphs and classify those with connected bipartite factorization…
On a compact oriented surface of genus $g$ with $n\geq 1$ boundary components, $\delta_1, \delta_2,\ldots, \delta_n$, we consider positive factorizations of the boundary multitwist $t_{\delta_1} t_{\delta_2} \cdots t_{\delta_n}$, where…
We show that every infinite, locally finite, and connected graph admitsa translation-like action by $\mathbb{Z}$, and that this action can be takento be transitive exactly when the graph has either one or two ends.The actions constructed…
Using tools from computable analysis we develop a notion of effectiveness for general dynamical systems as those group actions on arbitrary spaces that contain a computable representative in their topological conjugacy class. Most natural…
Let $G$ be a finite almost simple group with socle $G_0$. A (nontrivial) factorization of $G$ is an expression of the form $G=HK$, where the factors $H$ and $K$ are core-free subgroups. There is an extensive literature on factorizations of…
We give an account of our work on transitive factorizations of permutations. The work has had impact upon other areas of mathematics such as the enumeration of graph embeddings, random matrices, branched covers, and the moduli spaces of…
