We show that the topological full group of a Hausdorff ample groupoid with compact unit space coincides with the group of homotopy classes of invertible isometries in pseudofunction algebras associated with the groupoid. Moreover, if the…

A topological gyrogroup is a gyrogroup endowed with a topology such that the binary operation is jointly continuous and the inverse mapping is also continuous. It is shown that each compact subset of a topological gyrogroup with an…

We explore algebraic subgroups of of the Cremona group $\mathcal C_n$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. First, we consider some class of algebraic subgroups of $\mathcal C_n$ that we call flattenable. It contains…

We study the group of automorphisms of the affine plane preserving some given curve, over any field. The group is proven to be algebraic, except in the case where the curve is a bunch of parallel lines. Moreover, a classification of the…
