The fundamental group of the complement of a locally flat surface in a $4$-manifold is called the knot group of the surface. In this article we prove that two locally flat $2$-spheres in $\mathbb{C} P^2$ with knot group $\mathbb{Z}_2$ are…

Commability is the finest equivalence relation between locally compact groups such that $G$ and $H$ are equivalent whenever there is a continuous proper homomorphism $G \to H$ with cocompact image. Answering a question of Cornulier, we show…

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…

It is known that the canonical double cover of any connected nonbipartite graph have an automorphism group of the form $H \rtimes \mathbb{Z}_2$, where $H$ is the set of automorphism which preserve bipartite parts. We construct connected…

We associate to each finite presentation of a group G a compact CW-complex that is a 3-manifold in the complement of a point, and whose fundamental group is isomorphic to G. We use this complex to define a notion of genus for G and give…

A topological gyrogroup is a gyrogroup endowed with a compatible topology such that the multiplication is jointly continuous and the inverse is continuous. In this paper, we study the quotient gyrogroups in topological gyrogroups with…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a real cyclic extension of degree divisible by $p$. We analyze the {\it statement} of the "Real Abelian Main Conjecture", for the $p$-class group $\mathcal{H}_K$ of $K$, in this non semi-simple case. The classical {\it…

A group-category is an additively semisimple category with a monoidal product structure in which the simple objects are invertible. For example in the category of representations of a group, 1-dimensional representations are the invertible…

Rational wave numbers are periodic sequences ${\mathbf \omega}={\bf A}{\bf w}(f,g)$ in which amplitude ${\bf A}$ a product of powers of trigonometric sequences and ${\bf w}(f,g)=\exp({\bf {i2}\pi ( f {\mathbf \xi} \oplus g{\bf 1})})$ is a…

We prove that every quasisimple group of classical type is a product of boundedly many conjugates of a quasisimple subgroup of type A_n.

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a small category, motivated by the definition of bisheaves of abelian groups of MacPherson and Patel (see the Definition 5.1 of the paper: R. MacPherson and A. Patel. Persistent local systems. Adv. in Math. 386: 107795,…

An algebraic quantum group is a multiplier Hopf algebra with integrals. In this paper we will develop a theory of algebraic quantum hypergroups. It is very similar to the theory of algebraic quantum groups, except that the comultiplication…

We study generic properties of topological groups in the sense of Baire category. First we investigate countably infinite (discrete) groups. We extend a classical result of B. H. Neumann, H. Simmons and A. Macintyre on algebraically closed…

We prove that if $H$ is a topological group such that all closed subgroups of $H$ are separable, then the product $G\times H$ has the same property for every separable compact group $G$. Let $c$ be the cardinality of the continuum. Assuming…

Every locally compact local group is locally isomorphic to a topological group.

An algebra is said to be hopfian if it is not isomorphic to a proper quotient of itself. We describe several classes of hopfian and of non-hopfian unital lattice-ordered abelian groups and MV-algebras. Using Elliott classification and…

Let $H$ be a closed subgroup of a regular abelian paratopological group $G$. The group reflexion $G^\flat$ of $G$ is the group $G$ endowed with the strongest group topology, weaker that the original topology of $G$. We show that the…

It is shown that the big free group (the set of countably-long words over a countable alphabet) is almost free, in the sense that any function from the alphabet to a compact topological group factors through a homomorphism. This statement…

Let $G$ be a locally compact topological group, $G_0$ the connected component of its identity element, and comp(G) the union of all compact subgroups. A topological group will be called inductively monothetic if any subgroup generated (as a…

We study when a piecewise full group (a.k.a. topological full group) of homeomorphisms of the Cantor space $X$ can be given a non-discrete totally disconnected locally compact (t.d.l.c.) topology and give a criterion for the alternating…
